Having to question if I'm a "Sonic fan" because of what I say has got me stumped into actually putting down what Sonic means to me, and why I'm a fan to this day, despite the shit I say about it, so here's a small🧵 all about my unfiltered, in the moment thoughts of Sonic (1/2)

Those fuckass ai generated movies are a disease, hearing those around me watching some of the most shallow type of "movies" that's nothing but dialogue, and speak in the most cliche way possible, and will somehow be praised I would honestly have more respect for you if you just watched hallmark

The bit where you showed footage of frontiers, only for the IGN logo to fly away really takes the cake in demonstrating how much the game (or games in general) barely differ from pre release footage other than a few things, it was never gonna look different esp in under 6 months before release ☠️

I really dislike when people try to say "Just keep boost, and spindash together" when either one contradicts the other in functionality, and design

I'm dooming ofcourse, the 4th movie is dropping next year so they 100% got something in store, it's just kinda sad looking at how little of a presence he has in his OWN anniversary, like they genuinely put all their eggs into rumble and crossworlds and came out dry this year 💔

The most enjoyment from this game has been cheesing obstacle courses via proxy setpieces, or the jank ground physics. Anw onward to Ares Island

out how to get up to a certain area you marked cuz the setpiece isn't in render range. for triple AAA standards, this makes the game unironically look cheaper, often compared to UE tech demos, just this time it's an official product.

graphically fine at best, awful looking at worst, Sonic does not belong in the environment he's in at all, he doesn't even have shadows, the pop in radius is ridiculously noticeable at at some points makes tracking the start of an obstacle course for a token a pain in the ass cuz you cannot figure-

The dialogue is very deflating, like they say the thoughts you're supposed to think for you, they play it out very straight so to make sure the player doesn't get the wrong impression, everything's literal, and almost pretentious sounding. Don't get me started on the voice acting.

tho the fastest ways to clear out an enemy is utilizing Sonic Boom, Grand Slam, and Stomp Attack, do a little jab to reset, and do it over and over, some moves are like better than the other moves in your kit, and they co-exist for some reason. (sonic boom and x slash)

Joshikoy (COMMS OPEN) @joshikoy.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

superfluous, the enemies are either meat bags, or they ask you to do a really specific moveset (i.e Bubble being beaten via Sonic Boom, Shell via parry, or cyloop, etc), the combat doesn't really get any deeper, and I think a lot of the reason why people like it so much cuz it's flashy

that you can find anywhere else, or you can utilize another setpiece to cheese another segment's award if it gets a bit annoying, idk if it's clever or an oversight. The combat is like whatever, I've already experienced the full moveset but like, combat's sort of just jammed in here, at most it's-

They scatter these 3d sonic sections on the sky with the guise that you can play around connecting them together but like it's sort of like a fidget toy or tiktok reels to how they fill the world with these tiny dopamine rush segments of automated rails, then spit you out with a singular token-

impressions so far: This game is a hodge podge of good ideas just crumpled together where they are good conceptually but don't actually weld together, it's just constantly throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks.

Replaying Sonic Frontiers from the start since 2023 to gather a rounded opinion on it after hating it for so long since my last impressions of it Finished Kronos so far, here's my current thoughts on it 🧵 #SonicFrontiers #Sonic #SonicTheHedgehog

Didn't even give him blue eyes, how is this even remotely frontiers other than the connotation that Sonic goes super in it, super sonic should've been the default, then make super sonic 2 the premium one 😭

Crazy this isn't even like a soft launch game, this was out a year ago, but talks of it are just nowhere to be seen, not even in the #AngryBirds hashtag or key phrases on twitter, literally NO ONE cared for this entry 💀

original came out, and to see the state of the franchise is in right now is like unrecognizable, it might be truly a lightning in a bottle franchise that just wasn't meant to go on any further. And with Movie 3 looking to be an absolute bomb, genuinely what did SEGA see in this studio 😭😭😭

Also personal nitpick but I think the slingshot stories artstyle this game has really amps up the soullessness of this game, everyone's so sanitized, they aren't even ANGRY anymore! Anw I haven't cared for Angry Birds in a long time but I know the impact it had when I was like 6 yrs old when the

And apparently Rovio expects this game to be a billion dollar cash cow, which frankly sorry to say, I don't think it's got that kind of flow, nor do I think people go to Angry Birds for that in general, hell NONE of these copycat slop games are what people go to Angry Birds for

Joshikoy (COMMS OPEN) @joshikoy.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

The cherry on top of it all is it's got an auto functionality, which is sort of plaguing modern mobile gaming as of recent, so on top of being a boring 30 second segment runner, I don't even have to engage or care about playing it, aside from like bonus or base attack segments that need input

Joshikoy (COMMS OPEN) @joshikoy.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

it's got some city build mechanic thing where your awards get funneled to, then repair it from time to time when someone attacks it, to attack others and such is a random chance portal that sends you to their base for you to destroy, this whole mechanic is superfluous to the game in general

Joshikoy (COMMS OPEN) @joshikoy.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

For one, it's not even an endless runner, it's like a 30 second shot of dopamine, going through ridiculously easy bits, then you land, and do it all over again, paired with an energy system for extra inconvenience in case you liked the game too much, it's not challenging, and very boring

Joshikoy (COMMS OPEN) @joshikoy.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

Cons: The fact that it's this format to begin with is so upsetting, on paper it's clever but in execution it's one of the most depressing experiences I've had with this franchise (maybe inaccurate cuz I haven't played their other copycat slop games post movie era but I don't care to touch them anw)
