Yeah...this isn't for me. It looks so bland and generic. Sonic looks completely out of place. Enemies look like placeholders. Music just doesn't fit with the fast pace Sonic gameplay. The game is just a confused mess. Sonic fans will probably buy it up and Sonic Team will get the wrong idea and they'll continue pushing out mediocre to bad Sonic games.
I hope I'm wrong and am overreacting. But this game comes out in 5-6 months.
And while I understand it's just a demo this is the first time we're seeing it fully in action. SEGA's job is to make sure that they give a good impression especially this close to release. So far it has been extremely underwhelming. Spacing it out between chunks of gameplay over the month doesn't really scream "confidence" to me either.
Sonic 06 is looking better and better.
After seeing this it made me realize I was too harsh with Sonic 06.
they must have heard us. Still not feeling this!
The way the emotional piano music clashes with the arcadey sound effects is unintentional comedy at its finest.
I reckon the game would stand out more if the environment artstyle was Green Hills and not this BOTW/Infinite/Elden Ring design. Sonic looks out of place in this world.
"combat"
I'm seeing a lot of neat concepts and designs. What I'm not seeing is a cohesive game. Hopefully this is a much earlier build designed for a technical demonstration.
Looks janky.
This sound a neat game in every way except by the Sonic itself. It looks so out of place compared with the environment and enemies, this should 100% be a new IP with a new main character that matches the overall atmosphere of the game
Pokemon scheme of fighting will easily appears.
