I'm probably gonna make another review maybe when I finish it myself but at the moment I do not think I will as this game is kinda the same all the way through.
I am a huge Sonic fan. My favorite games are Adventure 1 and CD. I played all the Sonic games, hell I even beat Lancelot's Return in the Black Knight as a kid in like 30 seconds I was obsessed with this blue thing as long as I could really remember anything.
Sonic Frontiers is a very cool game stuck in a very boring world with very boring enemies and very stiff movement. Now lets get this stupid shit out the way, yeah its better than Forces but who cares. Why do we have to accept an ok game because the last game was dog water.
This game has kinda wanted me to write genuine game reviews because I should express my thoughts more I feel like I have some decent insight on some things when I can. And when I say that this game is gonna be good with mods, I mean it. This game is conceptually such a badass game. Sonic in a fucking open field running his heart out. In fact, conceptually, this is the perfect Sonic game. The peak of the franchise.
But sadly, because Sonic Team sucks at making games (which has been a true fact for awhile now) its just. Ok at best and horribly boring and bad at worst. The main thing in this game is the open world.
SIKE
I'm just fucking with you! It's actually NOT!
It's the boring puzzles and "Cyberspace" levels that is this game. Most of this game is collecting bullshit color things and giving them to Sonic friends so they can tell you to either play some dork ass mini game or go to another area to talk to them AGAIN to MAYBE play some dork ass mini game.
But there is another thing you may have to do to talk to them, get these vault keys to get the chaos emeralds so you can fight the huge ass Angel from NGE of the area (which is the coolest thing to do in this game besides the fishing).
Sadly, the only way to get this keys is by doing the Cyberspace level which are some of the worst things in Sonic ever. Remember everything bad about Forces, About Colors, About Generations? The later being good games but still having the boost games usual problems they're just stuck to having? Well they're all personified in the Cyberspace levels!
The themes are Green Hill, Sky Sanctuary, Chemical Plant, and City and the layout to these stages are usually based on an actual GOOD stage from an old game except when its a shit ton of 2D sections which sorry to say this game also has a lot of for some reason.
These stages are fuck boring with a even bigger problem which I hope they patch which is the Cyberspace level control like ass which is even funnier because Sonic Team were so stumped with Sonic's controls they gave you a control slider in the options. But it only works on the open world. So no matter what you do you HAVVEEE to play Cyberspace with some of the worst annoying controls ever on some of the most boring stages ever.
This game can be described as boring, the scenery is boring, the enemies designs are boring, the only saving grace is the Big fishing mini game which can actually give you power keys the only problem is A. finding it and B. the early ones don't give you that much unlock coins so until endgame its still annoying to find the friend tokens, the gears to even UNLOCK the cyberspace levels (which you get for killing enemies (sometimes) (also the mini bosses only give you fucking ONE by defeating them lol)) and the keys which you have to play the worst part of the game to get.
The bosses(titans), story, and sometimes music can get you through this game but its mostly just boring puzzles like jump to the switch, finish the switch maze, RUN to a switch, and more boring shit (except the pinball one which had some pretty fun music too).
This game has the ingredients to being yummy but some jackass thought it'd but funny to put cow and dog shit into the batter and so. You get the most whatever game ever.
My only hope with this game is that maybe the next game could be cooler with better movement tech that does not make Sonic stiff and the youth gets an OK Sonic game to play and geek out to for years. Its not bad, but maybe it being just boring is even worst than it being hilariously bad. Sonic Team needs to just get over the Hedgehog engine/boost formula in general and go back to the drawing board with Sonic Adventure 1, because as much as that game had its problems, it had everything fun about how Sonic moved, a fun story, and its older so its limitations can be decently excused.
Maybe not excused anymore though because it was telling back then that these guys don't know how to make a fucking game LOL. Maybe the next one will be super awesome. Maybe. Story was fun though except for like the ending it kinda ended very fast but they were able to make it interesting. Also the voice direction was bad. Lol.
