    Good, because if SEGA has no plans to let us play as Silver on console ever again, they might as well make Shadow more fun to play as, than the main character of their game brand. It's better than having to play as 2 Sonic's every freaking year.

      @@IKIGAIofficial has anyone here ever bothered to actually find out why 2D exists in 3D Sonic games?
      Here's why. Sonic's immense speed is fundamentally flawed. There's a video on this on TH-cam, but I'll quickly summarise it here.
      Sonic is the fastest video game character of all time, and because of that, it's one of the hardest to make games for, especially in 3D. Sonic covers so much ground in so little time, so substantial levels take so much resources and time to make. So to compensate, Sonic Team has come up with many methods to avoid such problem. Alternate playstyles, gimmicks, fodder, and the subject at hand, 2D. In 2D, Sonic/Shadow is much slower, so they can make the level design much more compact, costing less to make.
      Bro grateful they're even trying. They easily could have either release the games every few years much shorter so the people complaining about 2D will shut up, or take 5-10 years for every mainline release, in order to give a substantial game without 2D. They cannot handle the sheer effort it takes to make 5 minutes 3D boost levels and still be alive after. Don't act like their being lazy, and can just "make more 3D".

    Two things I adore about this game that I feel like is under appreciated are the optional dialogue and the chest gear placements. The optional dialogue that changes throughout the playthrough is a joy to read. The gear placements in levels are much better than the red rings in my option because almost all of them are found in the fastest path in the level rather than being all over. Great video.

    Now just need something with a grander story akin to 06, with huge stakes and a large roster… but not a playable roster though. Have Sonic, Shadow, and Silver campaigns, Sonic about super high top speeds and good platforming, Shadow with chaos control like this game did but not as fast as Sonic, and Silver with slower gameplay but more intricate platforming and puzzle mechanics using his telekinesis.
    Those 3 as the only playable characters, with Sonic’s Frontiers combat, Shadow’s chaos control and a new telekinesis system for Silver, in a 15-20 hour campaign, and they all go Super towards the end.

    That is because Shadow canonically does Teleport to fight these days. They make up his homing attacks, and to further differentiate him from Sonic. Its also part of how his Chaos Warping works, a Chaos Emerald fuels and increases the distance. This was presented in the end days of Archie Sonic, where Shadow, fighting the remnants of the Black Arms in space, required an Emerald to safely evacuate from the enemy vessel back to the allied G.U.N. ship.

    Honestly I liked the 2d stages. I've even heard some people say that some of the 2d shadow stages were some of the best 2d speed stages in the entire history of the franchise. But also, I think doubling the length of the game would be a bit much. Really, all Shadow Gen needed was 1 more level I think to just let the mechanics stew. Every stage is overtly dedicated to being a tutorial for a different ability and we really could have done with a stage, possibly referencing the black comet or something from Shad05, to just let us marinate on all the abilities for the length of a stage, without having to worry about anything new being introduced.

    Shadow lends himself to better gameplay as he's acquired so many abilities that were well utilized in the Shadow half of this game and he's the better character story wise too. Sonic by comparison is too vanilla. I'd love to see them make another dedicated story driven Shadow game with most if not all these abilities that really shake up gameplay. The problem with the first game is they leaned way too hard on trying to make it weirdly mature and it clashed with the Sonic motif. This game strikes a good balance as his story is darker, but swapping out guns for fun gameplay mechanics in the form of abilities was a great call.

    @AK46supr วันที่ผ่านมา +2

    Im sorry but i gotta critique this one thing. The slap on gimmick isnt a boost formula issue. It was always a 3D sonic issue. Since adventure the reason they even added different playable characters was because it was hard to design stages for 3D sonic to sustain an entire game since he can go so fast & clear levels easier on a 3D plane. And to make that for other characters that do the same was difficult for sonic team. So they did what they did for sa1 & 2, heros, even 06. There was always a gimmick slapped on to extend playtime because 3D sonic is a difficult beast to make enjoyable on its own than 2D. Really- colors was arguably the first to have an entire “3D” sonic game in one gameplay style. The wisps were power ups
    It was never a boost formula issue. Other than that, great review

      The game had all the hype in the world to work so well.
      Its just that lets be real given the state of the franchise in the 2010's and the destruction of the reputation of Sonic game since 06 and to an extend for Shadow 05 since the story was bad, getting a Sonic game with this much attention, especially for a character that is nonetheless relatively less popular than Sonic , will not be anything less than surprising

I tried playing Sonic Generations after Shadow's campaign and it felt like such a slog. But I'm still thinking about how fun Shadow's hub world and levels were, and I want more of it.
    Honestly if Sonic Team could like, just do a bunch of smaller games like this for some of Sonic's other characters, I'd be pretty happy about it. I'll pay 30 bucks for a 5-hour Knuckles campaign that's as well thought out as this was.

    Sonic have been fixing it's brand post 2020. Excluding Mania Superstars and Frontiers were the best games than the prievous Decade. 2011 with Generations was the last point the series was "fixed" Xgens is the game in series history. But they also needed frontiers espesically to make it clear they can write the characters correctly even back in a serious tone. Most of the fanbase have been fans longer than the actors and remember when the series tried to be serious as well as humorous. The Meta "era" needed to end, it wasnt funny in context of sonic but the wrong type of cheesy.

    Shadow Generations could have been its own game. Just add extra stages and more challenge acts. Because after completing his portion of the game and heading into Sonic Generations… the difference in controls is night and day. Modern Sonic does not feel good to play after about 20 hours of Shadow’s gameplay.

    Ayo be careful with that last wish brother. That's how we got 06 lol. Jokes aside, yes. Shadow Gens is perhaps the BEST Sonic game we've gotten in a long time. I wouldn't say it is the best. In my eyes, Sonic Adventure 2 still holds that title. But I will consider Shadow Gens to be my 2nd favorite of all time. I think the short length really helps Shadow Gens. There are no bad levels. One can dislike the 2D levels for being 2D yes, but in terms of actual level design they too are absurdly good. All around the levels in Shadow Generations are immensely good. And that's special in my eyes. Yeah, there's only five stages, but they are all REALLY good. And I cannot stress enough how important that is. There are no bad levels in this game.
    Do I want double the length of Shadow Gens? Yes. I would LOVE that. But I have no desire to sacrifice ANY of what makes this game so good. The animations, the abilities, the cutscenes, the story. I want EVERYTHING to be this quality. I'll take something shorter if it means being extremely high quality. Quality over quantity. Now, given that the next Sonic game is likely to not have a remaster tied to it, do I expect a little bigger? Yes. But I absolutely do not want them to overshoot again and land back in 06 territory with huge expectations. I want them to focus on all of this good Shadow Gens did, and continue that. Good animation, good level design, good music, and good story. Keep it simple.

    I think the way the reason why Maria and Shadow didn't get a conversation of them catching up in life and stuff is because, the moment Shadow meets her and Gerald, Shadow starts to pretend to be from around the same point in time as them, or a little further, since there are those conversations with Maria that she see's Sonic and the others as Shadow's friends, and then there is Gerald, telling Shadow not to interact too much with them to stop any paradox from potentially happening

  • @Drazil100
    @Drazil100 20 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

    Shadow the Hedgehog 05 is actually an amazing game but you have to actually play it with the right mindset to get any enjoyment. It’s meant to be enjoyed at a slow and methodical pace, contrary to what the fast physics would leave you to believe. Most of the issues people have with the game are solved by just going a little slower and understanding that you won’t be speedrunning the game.
    The game definitely isn’t perfect, but unlike some other games in the series it is a complete game with a massive (for a sonic game) 23 stages. It was an ambitious project and its biggest flaw was setting the wrong expectations by being a sonic game with a character that needs to be speedy.
    Edit:
    7:49 This is exactly what I’m talking about. Shadow the Hedgehog is what happens when they DIDN’T slow him down. They met community expectations for how fast he should be, but at the expense of actual being able to control him or find targets you need to kill because you are zooming right past them.

Not saying I dislike adventure style, but in those games, those focused on the movement and controls of sonic instead of the levels. I think both are good in they're own right, I just prefer reaction-based levels, over movement based levels. The platforming sucks in unleashed and generations tho
