You can upgrade your base speed.

But will it be enough? Will it feel good to go fast? I’m not so sure

Based on the reviewers' account of the game, it's enough. They even say that there is speed based momentum in the game, but only time will tell when game comes out.

I wonder if the speed of these demos was deliberately set to one of the lowest just for demonstration purpose, kind of like how Doom 2016 was shown with a slower speed to make it easier to show what the game was.

There were sliders you could use to change certain factors of gameplay, so I would assume so.

Ryan Bloom back at it again with the hot Sanic takes, this time centering around the unusually positive reaction to Frontiers in the press:

I dunno if I’d say I’m surprised. But there’s definitely something very interesting with how Sonic Frontiers seems to be hitting with the press. It’s very different from how Sonic games usually show up at places like that – which is to say, Sonic games usually have a “press cycle,” but it’s never quite like this, where you have more and more people coming forward to say “I played Sonic Frontiers and I actually really liked it.”

Like, let’s take Sonic 4, for example, since that was something that was extremely hyped and had a press tour that I remember somewhat well. I remember Sega taking that game around and there was one particularly notable preview with… I think either IGN or Gamespot. I’m pretty sure it was Gamespot.

They had Sonic 4 and instead of letting anyone from Gamespot play the game, only the representative from Sega was allowed to demo it while Ken Balough chatted with the Gamespot hosts.

And you look back on that now, after what disaster Sonic 4 was, and it’s like “Oh, of course Sega was the one playing the game for the cameras.” If you let someone unfamiliar with the game play it, they’d probably spend some amount of the demo wrestling with the awful controls.

But that’s also the other thing, right? I feel like, for the longest time, a lot of the loudest voices in the press were pretty staunchly “Sonic sucks!”

So I don’t think a lot of the press is necessarily super familiar with what Sonic fans like about Sonic, because they bounce off even some of the better games. Or they come at them from the perspective of “I hope this will be bad, because I’m already planning on laughing at it.”

Sonic games are weird and a little more complex than just “they’re bad.” And I think the entire reason the Sonic fandom seems so divided and indecisive is because they look at these games differently from how the press or the public at large does. So there’s a disconnect between how a Sonic fan sees a game and how the press sees it.

If the press is being unusually positive about Sonic Frontiers, as a Sonic fan, I want to know more, and why. What is it that has finally hooked them, and is it the same things that will matter to me?

It just makes me more curious.

The intro of Sonic Frontiers got leaked. No audio of the game itself, though.

Journos like generic open world sludge. The lowest scores Saints Row reboot got was 6/10s
Another thing is the soap shoes will be available as free DLC for newsletter subscribers, that's kinda neat

I was watching random Sonic videos and found this. I just thought it was funny.

I'm so tired of woke shit that I'm more disgusted with the criticism of damsels in distress than him wanting a blue hedgehog to fuck a realistic looking human being.

That's not really a "woke" thing as there is something to be said of that trope, but that's beside the point.

I will never understand why people would unironically ship Sonic with Elise (or ship sonic characters at all for that matter).

I only ever see SJWs cry about stuff like Peach not saving herself.

I'll never understand "shipping" fictional characters period, not just Sonic.

Sonic has been trash ever since it left 2D. The whole type of gameplay with it being so fast and twitch based only really feels fun in 2D. Mario made the leap to 3D because the gsme is slower enough for you to deal with 3D...every time I've tried 3D sonic it's felt either too on rails or too fast to work out what's happening.

 

[Nauseated Courgi]

They say that, but doesn't Peach have a whole game where she is the one to save Mario?

Super Princess Peach on Nintendo DS.

 

[SSj_Ness (Yiffed)]

They say that, but doesn't Peach have a whole game where she is the one to save Mario?

They also complain about that one because it uses her emotions as a mechanic, it was one of the earliest times I noticed SJWs whining.

But about the game, it's actually really good aside from the forced collectables. I'd say it's in the top 5 2D platformers for the series.

Fifteen years ago today...Sonic was revealed for Super Smash Bros Brawl.

Fifteen years ago today...Sonic was revealed for Super Smash Bros Brawl.

[Celebrate Nite]

Fifteen years ago today...Sonic was revealed for Super Smash Bros Brawl.

I'm still waiting for a platformer featuring the both of them

Enough of this smash/olympics cock-teasing bullshit

Sonic Frontiers Is Getting Free Monster Hunter DLC On November 14th

At this point, we've heard more about the DLC Frontiers is gonna get than Frontiers itself.

In case anyone missed it, someone ported Sonic Mania to Wii. There are several issues like slow special stages and broken FMVs, and you have to compile it yourself if you want the Plus DLC, but it’s still very impressive. One step closer to that Dreamcast port!
