I bought Sonic Frontiers yesterday. I don’t know why, I thought it seemed interesting. Anyways I’m two hours in and so far I think it kinda sucks. It’s so unpolished and feels very cheap. My least favorite thing about it is the visuals and the music. It feels like it takes place in the movie Annihilation or something. Even the “normal” Sonic levels feel weirdly creepy and sad. Also why does Sonic sound like he’s 40 years old? Also the level design is ridiculous, it just feels like there’s random stuff everywhere. I feel like kind of a sucker for buying this game for $60. But I do like the fact that Big the Cat is in it.

It certainly wasn’t incredible, but for Sonic a 6-7/10 is basically a 9/10 to hardcore Sonic fans. That’s okay, and it means the game inherently isn’t for everyone. It’s got lots of issues, but I think if you can look past the surface level details it has a lot that it does right too.
It’s definitely, from the position of a jaded fan who tried it after years of ignoring (and occasionally playing because they’re so bad) Sonic releases because of the poor quality, the best release in a long time.
