unsubjective Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Unleashed still looks better.. lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Blood Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Lots of CGI, no actual gameplay in action but a few moments of in game graphics. Looks alright. Amazing? No, but it looks okay. The grass is very flat and undetailed though. I'd expect to actually see the indivisible blades in a current-gen game. I'm not happy to see the Forces model back. Also... Flynn is writing! That's amazing. Morio Kishimoto is directing... That's not amazing. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGroose Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 With a lot of these areas being really compact compared to the long linear hallways of previous games, it'll be interesting to see how Sonic's control and handling will feel in Frontiers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strickerx5 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 On a technical side, this game has some real potential. Though... even for that there really isn't a lot to go off of. Framerate was wacky but that's to be expected for a game this far out. Not gonna help the "hire this man" or anti-realism debate tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricochet Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Frontiers trailer looks terribly generic (as most games shown tonight anyways). It could be fun to roam seamlessly full throttle and fight constructs, as long as those don't end up as joke you can easily bulldoze in a matter of seconds. Nevertheless, not worth discussing this further for me until a proper gameplay reveal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razule Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 They didn't just hire that man, they hired THE man! Happy for him. Now we just gotta see how much control he actually had over it.. is this written by HIM him, or just localizing? And how's he gonna show off his chops if the game consists of only two characters 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikySprinter Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Well, hopefully Sonic's model is still a work in progress, because Forces model or not, that trailer had that cursed flat quill. Ugh... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tenko Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Ian penning the story is fantastic news, well deserved and about time! What was shown tho..eh. Perhaps I've just been burnt out on the modern Sonic outings lately, Lost World, Forces, Team Sonic Racing, they were all subpar and not at all entertaining personally. Currently with what little we have seen and know about it, it's looking like a hard pass until it's bargain bin material unless something impressive is shown down the line. I regret paying full price for all the titles mentioned above and I don't want to be caught out again. At least Origins I know I will enjoy I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoDaiko Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Thank god, We can finally settle the stupid "Can Ian write the game better than ST" debate that's been going on forever. I was tired of seeing them. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Betz Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 "In Sonic Frontiers, Sonic’s long-time nemesis Dr. Eggman discovers an ancient technology on the Starfall Islands and installs his AI program SAGE to hack in and take over. But there is more to this technology than he realizes, and unintended consequences immediately come to bear. Sonic must race against time to discover the truth, save his friends, and maybe even save himself at the same time." https://www.polygon.com/platform/amp/22824831/sonic-frontiers-sega-3d-mainline-game-awards 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiguy Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) That trailer seriously feels like more of a teaser then actually teaser trailer. Like imagine if this was shown first instead of what we got at Sonic Central. Like I get why we didn't but still. I'm really interested in this game but i'm not sold yet till I see some actual gameplay. Edited December 10, 2021 by Shiguy Mobile is shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbitearsblog Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Even though I wished they showed some gameplay, I'm still pretty interested in this game and the visuals look amazing. Also, Ian Flynn is writing the story, so good for him! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VO.SUPER Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Well. I feel optimistic about the narrative now at least. Ok. Optimistic isn't the right word, because that would imply I think it would be good. There's a lot more hands involved that affects the writing of a game. So I will just say I am confident. Implying that I am open for disappointment, but confident there's less of a chance for it there. But I am excited to see how Flynn's writing extends into the games. A lot is riding here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Dr. Detective Posted December 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 10, 2021 It looks really pretty. It looks really big. It looks like it might even be an adventure again, just like I've always wanted. Ian Flynn writing for it is even better. I wish I could feel more secure in my excitement but Forces must have knocked me down harder than I thought. Thank God, there was no "Classic Sonic ruins everything" moment like there was with the Forces trailer. People are apparently upset that the Forces model is being used but I literally couldn't tell and wouldn't have known if it wasn't pointed out. Without seeing if it'll matter in-game I also don't currently see why I should care. So, as a result, I have no complaints. Just the ususl apprehension that comes with every Sonic game release based on past experiences. It's interesting to see a Sonic trailer and not feel instantly concerned though. That's a nice feeling. It definitely feels like we're on the right track. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strickerx5 Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Very interesting how they had an entire trailer and never showed Sonic moving once. Well, at least they know exactly what most of us look for. Gotta keep us from tuning out too early I guess lol. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuzu Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 I have so many mixed feelings about this trailer that I'm left feeling absolutely nothing. Like legit, the only thing that got me just a LITTLE excited is having Flynn finally writing for the series. Took entirely too long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sega DogTagz Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Cant bash the game for buggy momentum physics if they never show Sonic move lol Flynn being on board with this is a huge win though. If anything, I'll probably be able to enjoy the story again. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
