@@dram3711Bro. Sonic fans don't agree. That's impossible. Every generation of sonic fans has a different take on what the mainline series should feel like.
I like the legacy skin a lot aside from his shoes. No idea why they made them blockier than they actually were. I'm especially happy it's the Dreamcast model too.
Really glad you enjoy my spindash mod. I'm currently working on an update that'll give you the option to charge up the spindash similar to in the adventure games. Plus you can spam it just like in Adventure 1.
MAN I love Generations level mods that have WAYY more stuff in them that they realistically need. Warrants multiple playthroughs and (in most cases) a higher skill ceiling.
I'm especially impressed since it's a decade old PC game with archaic tools yet plenty of the best mods are from 10 years ago!! the community is so good man
@@DolphynsDeckThe drop dash is real, saw it on the gamescage channel. It's looks weaker on modern though so I don't expect to use it compared to boosting.
It feels somewhat surreal to hear such positivity and detail given to a Sonic game (and mod itself) along with a person’s personal input on their thoughts that’s not toxic in any way. You have a way with words regarding our Blue Hedgehog is what im saying
11:40 This, right here, is a prime example of how we can combine all the best parts of both boost and adventure gameplay, to make something so incredibly unique and cool. I’ve been preaching a game that looks almost exactly like what you’re playing for YEARS. Its almost surreal to see. I absolutely adore everything about this. Wish I had the PC to experience it for myself. 🙏
on the topic of using existing assets for custom stages, i'm actually doing that for project tropical resort as i'm currently remaking the ds version of the stage and also got a new tails stage planned for it just for fun lol
NIIIICE - I've seen your project in the discord for a while now and I keep wanting to play it! The shaders/lighting look really good. I had no idea you were doing DS stuff though! I've never played that version so I guess I'll have to do my homework before you release it. When you say new Tails stage do you mean like an original stage for Frontiers Tails? That would be wicked.
@@DolphynsDeck for the tails part, basically yeah, an entirely new stage with the stage's assets designed for frontiers tails, but thanks for the positive feedback!
@@DolphynsDeck I only heard about a Classic drop dash, but if it’s like Frontiers’ it oughta be interesting. It was hard to steer but I think it’ll be better since the stages are hallway like. They’re keeping control schemes from frontiers, so we’ll just have to see!
Generations stages are so wonderfully complex, but I don't think I really appreciated the depth of them until I tried Score Generations. I love it when the best way through a level isn't just sticking to the top route, but swapping between routes and making your own optimal path. It works really well with Reappear Red Ring since you can grab them without slowing down with some route adjustments.
something funny about the Uekawa mod (im the one that made the mod my old username was Snoc lma) was i got so many DMs angry about how the shading was like the original SA1 prerenders and they didnt like it. I wish there were more Sa1-esque animations i could use for it instead of the gens animations
YOUR TAKE ON THE RANKING SYSTEM IS SO BASED!!! I think Rush lays out your point values well, except the speed bonus. Colors is also pretty good since it shows what you did and how many points you got per acton. I really hope we get more point based ranking systems in the future.
Well said! Colors has an underrated system. Sure, you can cheese it but that's part of the fun I'm ngl. I grew up on Rush as well so maybe that's part of where I adopted the mentality lol
Just randomly decided to play Unleashed again the other day, realized I last left off bc Chu Nan night was the next level lmao, even tho I actually really like the Werehog got past it and was reminded how much I love the daytime gameplay, nice to see someone commending the physics instead of glazing Generations (as lovely as Gens is) Also that SA model is chefs kiss, wonder if anyone's got around to an SA2 equivalent, he's ma fave
If anyone reading this knows of a similar SA2 model let us know! Sometimes it's hard to navigate Gamebanana because you have to type all the correct keywords lol
7:40 which actually fits in really well, since that’s what the official generations levels do, some parts will be exactly the same as where they came from, and then twist into something new, using those same assets, making it fit in pretty well.
"We have a real spindash for Modern Sonic for the first time since ever" so we're just gonna forget how you can spindash in Sonic Frontiers? Sure it's unlockable but it's there
I wish they kept the spindash and the scoring system of the older games in generations. It feels like they would just flesh out the games so much more. But I don’t like the scoring system of colors, where literally no speed is allowed in order to get an S rank, but I like it when the combine use of breakneck speed and just general score
Boosting and rolling together already seems so silly and I love it. Speaking of combat in Sonic games, I'm thinking it would be at its best if the combat followed in Pizza Tower's footsteps to a degree - taking full advantage of both your speed and your moves to charge through foes before they can touch you back could, assuming Sonic can do tricks or parkour along the way as a twist, really spice up the gameplay of a more linear 3D Sonic game.
PIZZA TOWER MENTIONED I love what you're cooking here because it could also incorporate the reward for maintaining momentum but if you don't have speed maybe you have to do a simplified version of Frontiers / Heroes combat or something
I prefer S ranks taking skill to get, yeah, but i never liked racking up points. Mf i don't wanna slow down i am playing a Sonic game for chao's sake. I mean, Sonic levels were literally MADE with beating it as fast as possible in mind, it's always been the main thing about Sonic really. I'd rather have it be a more strict time to get, (like 1-2 in Frontiers) than have to stop and do a homing attack chain to kill all the enemies when i could just jump over it, which i find more fun and Sonic-y than literally slowing down for no reason. I can get how some people whould prefer it tho, just, not for me really.
Personally I really enjoy the 06 level design because it forces you to take out hordes of enemies to progress through the level, therefore it's not really "optional" + they give you more combat tools to keep your chain going Alternatively if they had moves like the sweepkick you could also make enemy chains go by a lot quicker by simply taking them all out in one big group. There's definitely ways they could make this a factor without forcing people to slow down imo I get you either way!
@@Ivan210bluboi I still like SA2 rankings because you have to use the bounce to keep your combo going in a lot of cases. SA1 is better though you're right
I wish we could get a boost game that's nothing but fully 3d levels with no open zone or other thing attached to it (werehog, colors gimmicks, classic sonic, avatar, etc). Just 12 zones/24 acts of platforming and rolling like Sonic 3&K or Mania. The combination of rolling giving momentum and the bounce instead of the stomp combined with air boost is really fun
Mods alone will forever keep Generations as one of the best Sonic games ever. Forget Gens X Shadow, the cash grab that it will be... the 2011 original holds the top three place in my heart next to Unleashed and Colors.
i just realized how weird i find those straight pathways like imagine a normal dude walking down that whole stretch like thatll take an hr and there isnt anywhere else to go
Something I would really like to see return someday are the point bonuses you'd get in levels (TIGHT - 800) for doing something obscure/cool in a level. As far as I can tell only one game does that (Adventure 2) and it feels like some Tony Hawk shit. It's a shame we don't see it anymore because it's like a direct reward for trying something cool. Also: on the level itself, I remember people giving it undue grief due to how "linear" it is, but a big thing that appeals to me about the best boost levels are that they make it feel like you're actually going places with your intense speed. In this mod you move through the city out to a huge lake surrounded by waterfalls back into an elevated town (which you can see in the distance when you're running through the lake). Boost Sonic is at its best when its presentarion is at its best. When it uses its insane speed to let you go through a world that feels like you're progressing through it the more you run. That's not even mentioning all the little side areas like the glowy moss sections you can get to with the grind rails. I hope this guy makes more levels cause I love this level.
YUPP! You hit the nail on the head with this whole comment! The bonuses give incentive to not dropping your enemy combos and basically created Shadow's entire gameplay in 06. It's still important to kill enemies for points in this but it's not as rewarding as the bonuses. They would even reward you for doing unnecessary things that were stylish like hitting the right trick on city escape. I love your analysis about moving through a location and presentation. Part of why Cyberspace felt underwhelming at first was because of it's wide FOV and lack of decoration. It felt too mechanical. Unleashed always whoa'd me like I was seeing Sonic's true speed; which felt even more immersive because the locations reminded me so much of real life with their textures. I love this comment and I'm going to think on this for a while tbh. Also, they've only made one other level to my knowledge: Seaside Hill Remake, which perfectly recreates the Heroes version. It's pretty sick
@DolphynsDeck another fan level that comes to mind when I think about "going places" is Shivery Mountainsides. You start shooting out of a cabin (which is the hub world), down a snowy slope covered in trees, through a town with lots of nice little wooden buildings, almost reminds me of a ski lodge, across the water into a crystalline cave, and finally out of the cave to another part of town, this time during sunset. Not only do I love the varied locations you go through, I LOVE that the time of day changes in the middle of the level. The best boost Sonic levels feel like a journey through a real place, which is what Forces was pretty lacking in. Severe lack of Eggman cities in that game. Imagine a version of Sunset Heights where you cut through town, cross the red bridge, go into a tunnel and through the sewers and end the level on the outskirts? That would've been amazing. But because the level's like a minute long we can't really do anything interesting with it.
I really hope that mods will still be able to work on the new version of generations and if they don’t the porting process will be easy because I know damn well they’ll take down the original version of gens.
I personally believe original Gens would've been delisted already. They didn't forget about it since they're choosing to not have it go on sale all of a sudden. We could also look at when the Classic games were delisted from Steam following Origin's announcement. Did that happen after the official release of Origins or before it?
i thought secret rings was ok. i did have the urge to play it almost all the way through. just to see where i would end up next. the story didnt to much capture me because it was kinda storybook like. the music was the best on the stages near the end think its called night palace. its been a long time since i played it. i didnt really like the dinosaur area much because i felt like i was dodging dinosaurs in the background to much.(go figure) but in my eyes it was adequate filler. the main theme was good but they didnt waste a chance to play it. im not a sonic pro so dont take my view on it.
"a real spindash for modern sonic, for first time EVER" sonic adventure, adventure 2, 06, lost world and de modern skin for classic sonic mod seeing what you just said: 😭😭🔫🔫
If cyberspace stages looked and controlled like THIS that would cement Sonic as the only rival to Mario in the current day. I understand the frustration well, especially since they kept teasing everyone by saying the Generations devs worked on games like Forces.
Okay, this isn't related to the video (I haven't watched yet) but I'm going on a rant about how weird Generations is continuity-wise. For one, in canon, both Modern and Classic Sonic are supposed to be 3 feet tall, but if you look at their models side by side, that's not the case in-game, which is weird as hell because, again, they're both supposed to be a meter. Second, Classic is a younger Modern, right? So, since it's confirmed that there's no timeline split and it's all 1 timeline, shouldn't Modern remember all the events of Generations? On that note, when Classic shows up in Forces, it's retconned to him being from another dimension, which actually makes WAY more sense, but then they changed it back, so shouldn't Sonic have seen Infinite coming, known his abilities, yada yada yada, and been able to just win? Legit, the existence of Classic Sonic in Modern Sonic games is SO WEIRD. I hope they keep them separate for good, or at least make it make sense.
Honestly, my ideal Sonic Generations mod would be a level pack that actually does what Gens 3DS should have. Game Gear, Game Boy Advance, and DS levels. Sonic 2 MS, Sonic Chaos, Sonic Triple Trouble; Advance 1, 2, and 3; Rush, Rush Adventure, and... Rivals? Colors DS seems like the lame choice. Maybe swap out the Rivals and Bosses for the fitting replacements of their eras, Fang, Gemerl, and Blaze; Laser Walker, Nonaggression (Only one I can think of that's not a "Middle Eggman"), and Egg King. But I'm not sure that one's possible yet. Also the 3DS version of the Time Eater, just to have the better final boss in Generations. Again, custom bosses aren't really a thing yet, but one day.
@DolphynsDeck Yeah, the actual 3DS levels would be nice to have too. Honestly, I'm surprised that HASN'T happened yet. I don't dare hope we'll see them in XGens, though. SEGA has never combined Portable and Console counterparts for a remaster.
I considered the drift but I actually find some charm in the jumpball animation. Unleashed HUD is a bit too different since this is kind of an alternate timeline Generations video
The fact the The spindash doesn’t Replace boost but compliments it allowing for you to do both simultaneously is amazing 1:34

sonic adventure, adventure 2, 06, lost world and de modern skin for classic sonic mod seeing what you just said: 😭😭🔫🔫
I'm clearly talking about Generations, that wouldn't make sense otherwise lol
Why the actual fuck SEGA stopped producing Sonic games like Generation and Unleashed is so beyond me.
If cyberspace stages looked and controlled like THIS that would cement Sonic as the only rival to Mario in the current day. I understand the frustration well, especially since they kept teasing everyone by saying the Generations devs worked on games like Forces.
no words this is peak
peak pfp ty
@@DolphynsDeck thank you man♥
gens mods give off a certain vibe that i cant figure out lol
good vibe? bad vibe? weird vibe?
@@DolphynsDeck a good vibe mixed with some nostalgia, im not sure why i feel that way with some gens mods
@@invalidfile probably the 2010s era assets, materials, huds, mod pages, etc. :^)
Okay, this isn't related to the video (I haven't watched yet) but I'm going on a rant about how weird Generations is continuity-wise.
For one, in canon, both Modern and Classic Sonic are supposed to be 3 feet tall, but if you look at their models side by side, that's not the case in-game, which is weird as hell because, again, they're both supposed to be a meter. Second, Classic is a younger Modern, right? So, since it's confirmed that there's no timeline split and it's all 1 timeline, shouldn't Modern remember all the events of Generations? On that note, when Classic shows up in Forces, it's retconned to him being from another dimension, which actually makes WAY more sense, but then they changed it back, so shouldn't Sonic have seen Infinite coming, known his abilities, yada yada yada, and been able to just win? Legit, the existence of Classic Sonic in Modern Sonic games is SO WEIRD. I hope they keep them separate for good, or at least make it make sense.
hey im the unwiished experience author (js wanna leave a comment)
Hello author
So, yeah. Unleashed remaster when? (obviously not with Generations physics)
I wonder if they'll get the message after Sonic X Shadow...
@@DolphynsDeck Day 1 after it comes out, someone will definitely make Project Unleashed for it just like with OG Generations. XD
I got the Sonic X Generations ad before this…
LET'S GO I'M SPONSORED BY SEGA NOW
Honestly, my ideal Sonic Generations mod would be a level pack that actually does what Gens 3DS should have. Game Gear, Game Boy Advance, and DS levels. Sonic 2 MS, Sonic Chaos, Sonic Triple Trouble; Advance 1, 2, and 3; Rush, Rush Adventure, and... Rivals? Colors DS seems like the lame choice.
Maybe swap out the Rivals and Bosses for the fitting replacements of their eras, Fang, Gemerl, and Blaze; Laser Walker, Nonaggression (Only one I can think of that's not a "Middle Eggman"), and Egg King. But I'm not sure that one's possible yet.
Also the 3DS version of the Time Eater, just to have the better final boss in Generations. Again, custom bosses aren't really a thing yet, but one day.
Out of them all I'd like to see Modern Mushroom Hill the most.
@DolphynsDeck
Yeah, the actual 3DS levels would be nice to have too. Honestly, I'm surprised that HASN'T happened yet. I don't dare hope we'll see them in XGens, though. SEGA has never combined Portable and Console counterparts for a remaster.
Wait didn’t have sonic 06 have spin dash just not the manual revvin feature
I was talking about Generations specifically
@@DolphynsDeck oh that's fair
It's not called cheating, it's called "challenging the rules"
The devs gotta work if they want my compliance 💯
whenever i see modern ball rolling i think of riders zero gravity spindash for some reason
Playing the best game of all time before it releases on modern platforms I see?
GOTY every year (especially when it releases)
Sonic rush 3D basically
Water Palace is a Generations mod to be fair! This is entirely possible!
I WISH I could play this mod… Mac users loose again.
OOF. At least on Linux there's compatibility setups for it..
Suck amazing mods, I wish you do more videos of Unleashed mods or Generations or something like that.
Planning on it. It's a little tricky in the current day because most stuff is already covered. I have some ideas for revisiting older stuff though!
Why no unleashed drift and hud😢
I considered the drift but I actually find some charm in the jumpball animation. Unleashed HUD is a bit too different since this is kind of an alternate timeline Generations video
@@DolphynsDeck oh true btw are u going to make ur own mod anytime soon??
@@RIOTZss I did make a Knuckles the Dread mod for Frontiers :^)
@@DolphynsDeck peak mod seen it a while ago but peak
Maybe the drop dash in sonic x shadow gens is gonna be like this
I heard that it works only after an airdash which sounds funky! We'll have to see but I'm expecting it to be kind of weak tbh.
@@DolphynsDeck me too
Sonic unleashed wii was the closest
I heard scourge generations and i am now disappointed and sad. (Edit: js realized your the frontiers super knuckles guy lol)
Still cool mods tho!
I'm satisfied to be known as that guy 😎
Scourge Generations is definitely getting revisited at some point
@@DolphynsDeck love the videos so much (real question is, what about dread knuckles generations.)
If I ever learn Gens modding maybe I could 🤔 would probably have to go over the Real Knuckles Mod
this guy sounds kinda like saltydkdan
while sonic team still spaming blocky level
Blocky level be damned my Sonic Team can craft some good Shadow levels
Nah
