One of the most lovably goofy games I've ever played. Yes, it's janky in places, the cutscenes are so bad they're hilarious, the camera can get in your way and yes Big the Cat is a stupid idea (although his section can be over in less than half an hour), but there's a lot of fun ambition and experimentation in the level design that pays off with how strong Sonic's core control feels

When you get into combat with the well-thought out Legion system and experience the gorgeously animated sci-fi setting with the well integrated UI, it's great.
When you're doing ANYTHING ELSE, it really isn't. There's nuggets of fun gameplay in here but they're buried under overly long investigation segments, shitty stealth, unfun required side missions and a shockingly bland story. Not awful but could've been much more, and I hope if this game gets a sequel we get a tighter iteration on the formula.
