Sonic Frontiers did what I and probably many others who had little to no hope left after Forces (Which sucks): exceed our expectations and make a genuinely enjoyable experience. I can say with confidence that this was probably one of the best Sonic games Sonic Team has made in a long time. It is nowhere near perfect, I have my gripes with it (Mostly with Cyberspace) but compared to the quality of some of the boost games we have received over the years, I can say that this is not only a step, but a leap in the right direction for boost gameplay. The soundtrack here was also perfect, I wasn't keen on how calm the overworld's ost was at first, but i came to realize how much it helped drive the narrative that the story was spinning, the story, though not anything amazing, was still interested and left me wanting more, the last time I could say that was Unleashed, and by far this is the modern voice crew's best work and the step Roger Graig's Sonic and both Mike Pollock's Eggman took for their characters was amazing and leaves with me with a lot of hope for this series going forward. Good job Sonic team, keep up the great work

Definitely a step up from Botw, I felt like BOTW was one of those games where you can play for about 100 hours and after that theres no replayability, but with the abilities and how much more explorable Hyrule, the depths, and somewhat the sky islands are, I can easily say this game is one of the best games I have easily played this year, I really wasn’t interested in the story that much but I did like how everything Link did felt important to get to the climax of the game. Also the first two phases of the ganondorf fights were sick as hell. The shrines were still braindead, but honestly thats mostly because of how many options you can make just solving them with all the resources you have on hand, and I was glad the dungeons returned but none of them really were fun to me, except maybe the lightning temple. Nonetheless, I can’t wait for future DLC.
