Honestly, the only thing bugging me so far are the weirdly stiff animations, but a lot can change inbetween now and November, so I'll reserve judgement on those until we have the final product.

The movement looks incredible, though, I absolutely cannot wait to run around in the world. All they need to really sell me is just give me some simple challenges/achievements to complete with little obstacles like BotW had and the game is fantastic for me.
Well let me tell ya something little Nyan.

Oh uh, something Sonic related. The guy playing ran over something that looked like it had a red ring pop out. Not like 'You found the hidden item' but like 'This is a stage and this sign indicates stages'. I'm positive that means we get actual traditional Modern Sonic stages in the vein of like, Kirby Treasure Road

So my full thouhhts I guess
  1. Masuda leaves, and what do we get? Chonk? Smol? Prof Gigachad? Dawg Redditors took over the game, we need Masuda BACK.
  2. The designs are cool. Reed Richards, Wilma Flinstone, and Spanish adult (or not) Momo Yaoyorozu.
  3. Legends are cool. Need more info
  4. Graphics look... better than PLA. Not up there but at least we got some good textures this time.
  5. Black Hairstyles was the highlight. I been campaigning for this for a long ass time so I'm hyped for that. Inb4 those were the only 2.
  6. What was the male professors name again? It feels like everyone just calls him Gigachad instead
  7. ATM, not standout mons except the Starters. We may have another Gen 7 situation where idk what starter to choose
Sonic stuff later when everything clears up.

Also everyone has just glossed over the fact this game has 4 player online modes where you actually interact with your friends in the Overworld.

That is very nice to see.
I was imagining **** like this back in the XY days. Awesome to see it realized.

And now I have a mission.

Get some friends to play with before November :drsad:

If that is how the gameplay loops, then it 100% has the potential to become top 10 Sonics for me because that feels like it'd be an evolution of Sonic Adventure 1's hub world mechanic.

I really think there will be stuff to do. In fact, there are moments where you can start to see stuff, but it very deliberately cuts away. They're saving it for a core gameplay loop trailer, it seems, probably at Geoff's event.

Absolutely. Gotta stay positive about this because Sonic Fans gotta act like Sonic Fans and calling the game total trash for not having realistic grinding physics like a single game did 21 years ago and never again

BTW, 100% they didn't show Sonic using the hamster wheel because that's probably the way to activate whatever the main gameplay gimmick is.

...I'm betting on stages, to be this game's version of shrines. :nifty:
That was the last thing they showed off lol, he got another fruit for it but that's abosutely the case. Honestly, I just can't wait to run up walls and stuff cause I bet you'll have to chase something down for a collectable

HELL YEAH KICK **** UP

Got to wonder if Sonic gets an extensive move list cause if combat is a bigger focus then it's probably more than the 3 hit combo and Spin Cycle

My personal thoughts on the sonic footage is that it looks good but it loads fairly slow and there didn’t seem like there was much to do. I’m expecting that they took out the enemies and other things so that they could show off sonic moving freely and that in the next trailer they’ll have the enemies and obstacles/stuff etc in the trailer.

for now though I’m just waiting for someone to rip the music from that footage and place it on YouTube because my god that sounded awesome and I wanna listen to it

Fun Fact: My friend timed how long it took for some of the new mons to get R34 immediately after the trailer aired



It took 28 minutes after the official reveal. 28 minutes. The internet scares me.
I post something like this and Ramen bonks me.



I know!

The art's supposed to come quicker than that!
