Same old cycle I know the spectre of the Sonic cycle has already been invoked but it is scary how accurate it is. If the next thing the game reveals is some new friends (that will be really annoying) then Sonic Frontiers has hit every bullet point. Even without that though this first hands-on with the game has been a disaster. Sega have got all this coverage organised for a whole month and the first time any of it is given some context the guy is pointing out all these flaws and problems.
I currently have zero faith in this game and the only reason that I’d still pay any attention to it is that a lot of the issues, especially surrounding the bosses could be due to bugs. Although I’m not particularly confident that Sega will fix them in time if it’s aiming for a 2022 release.
Even if those issues are fixed though I still don’t get what it’s going for in terms of atmosphere and style. Why is it so miserable and empty looking? Since when has Sonic ever been sombre? Even when edgelord Shadow the Hedgehog is involved it’s never that. And why is the game world so realistic looking? What’s the point?

I don’t think this is going to be a good game.Tom Meadows
