Everyone has its own opinion of course. Mine is that after playing kh2fm on lv1 critical and kh3 + RM on critical + all pro codes, I came to the conclusion that kh2 was not the perfect combat I used to remember, its a little bit more flawed than kh3's but still amazing in its own.

I heard, “something made for kids” and immediately knew you had nothing of value to say. Sonic isn’t JUST for kids, it can be appealing to everyone. Especially frontiers, with its more darker tone in story compared to previous games like lost world or colors. It’s comparable to unleashed in that regard.

Came back to this vid two years later for the hell of it and… damn. Hits just as hard as it did the first time, maybe even more so now that one, I’m more seasoned as a fan and just more AWARE (also I’m considerably more JP-loyal now soooo you’re welcome😅) and two, with Shadow Generations looking just plain KICKASS, a true heartbeat of hope for the good future you describe now feels like a very real possibility. I still feel that sort of tremendous secondhand regret that the series up to this point never could be anything like your vision… again, even more so now probably. I’ve… been through a lot on Sonic Twitter. To know that so much if not nearly ALL of it could’ve been avoided entirely… it’s just gutting. But just like this Sonic timeline (and perhaps even the official one as it now stands) I gotta stop letting that regret control me. And I echo what I quoted in my first comment two years ago… “Always keep moving forward. If you do that… we’ll always be together.” I guess in the end, it was mistakes like those that, in a way, caused this video, undertakings like P-06, fan rewrites, and certain games’ utterly INSANE modding scenes (*cough* Frontiers) to exist, so perhaps even tho there WAS a lot to not be proud of in the past… I wouldn’t have it any other way

You know, I honestly kinda compare this FFVII remake stuff to the Snyder cut of the Justice league, or at least as an outsider gathering information from people who know what they’re talking about anyway. Both are filled to the brim with “different”, “exciting”, and “personal vision purposed” bloat, not to mention they both don’t respect the original IP/iteration they were based on. Snyder utterly butchered the Justice League at every turn he could, and while I’m not sure whether or not I directly blame Namora due to him just sorta being forced to work on this against his will, he certainly butchered the themes and storyline of FFVII in my eyes.

A lot of modern games suffer from being skin-deep in terms of presentation: developers tend to overdo the graphical part, followed by the--understandable--battle mechanics that there is scant allowance left to nuances that make a game world immersive--lived-in so to speak. Games like this FFVII remake and Tales of Arise from Bandai Namco suffer from this in particular; they look pretty for trailers and the combat is haptic but that's about it... The environs are bare-bones with uninteresting NPCs handing out dab side offerings in tow. I much prefer humble, cel-shaded IPs like Steambot Chronicles (Bumpy Trot) where there is meat to be found in every portion or classic Tales installments to the tune of Vesperia and Abyss. The passion for making games is dying because of corporate greed, i.e. investor speed-run to the salable product. Remember Suikoden 2, where your castle turns into this game of its own with cooking battles and such? Or Legend of Legaia's tower area with arcade games? Take a page from the Yakuza games now, why don't you?

It's honestly sad because I get how scary it is when you never know what happens next with him so for the new game you have to praise it to the high heavens so Sega doesn't abandon it. But at the same time, Sega and Sonic Team are gonna be okay getting criticism. Unlike some fans, they don't go into a rant about fake fans and such. I liked Sonic games and shows for so long but it's sad that the same community I am in is littered with toxic people fighting eachover on what's a good game. Whatever take somebody has, respect their opinion first and then say why you like or dislike that thing respectfully. Some takes are cold while others are very hot.

Hey, I saw your tweets and I can't reply on there so I wanted to say it here. You are an incredible man and have created infinite stores of value in a realm that is flooded to the brim with mediocre, repetitive content. That said, it is wise to pursue a more stable, healthy and routine path in life. I'm glad you are going to college and trying something more stable and predictable. Content creators literally must grind themselves into the dirt simply to feed themselves, and we all understand if the financial reality of your artistic endeavors lead you down other paths. We love you so much and all that you've provided, your online presence should not be remembered in vain, and if you choose to take space from writing / critiquing, that's all well and good, just know that your time here has been nothing short of greatly appreciated and we all look forward to more from you should you ever choose to return, but when you are ready and no sooner. ❤ Good luck with all that you do in life, your influence in the realm of sonic's image has been nothing but helpful and for the betterment of his artistic integrity. I feel that you understand Naka's "vision" for the character better then anyone else will admit. You provided immensely sobering context to his dire situation in 2019 and then once again in 2022 and 2023, and for that I am eternally grateful. You were the only sober voice in the sonic community and you may stay the only one for potentially years to come. Rest easy and good luck!

I never played the original FF7, because I only started playing after the ps2 came out. And when I saw FF7 Remake, I was overjoyed to be able to finally play one of the FF classics! And like you mentioned in your video, I was one of those customers who had no idea about the ongoing’s in the gaming community since I did not have ps3 and ps4. Interestingly it was the same day I bought my ps5 and saw FF7 REMAKE on the shelf and bought it without a single thought. Only to realise later that this is just the first part. Yep, I got duped 😹

Dude the Palmer portion and the glitch is about on queue. If you remember in the OG they caught Palmer running away and saying he saw Sephiroth. Idk man some of your complaints aren’t on point because you are missing things that were in the OG. Plus Sephiroth being shown here is still just JENOVA. Same as in the OG. And even if he’s early it’s the same premise. Idk this is your opinion which is fine but a lot of this is kind of off. And also the change from Hojo in the crater and Hojo now realizing Cloud is fine. I mean he saw Cloud killed Sephiroth and then experimented on him for 5 years. Something hard to forget about. And some of the complaints about the story and how it’s handled can be blamed on western gamers and western game devs these days because people are dumb and don’t have the same level of patience they had back in the day. These days it’s all instant gratification.

Seeing Sephiroth in REMAKE and also REBIRTH isnt Sephiroth. Its JENOVA. Just like the OG. Was Remake perfect? No. Could you feel the padding? 100%. But what REBIRTH turned out to he was awesome. 10/10. Does the at mean it’s perfect? No. And based on the hat they did with REBIRTH I’m wondering what they’re gonna do since they have plenty of OG story to cover. I think Part 3 is going to be amazing and fix a lot of the issues people have had with REMAKE and REBIRTH story wise and pacing wise.

I thought about this earlier on what could be done with the Sonic series, and here are some of my thoughts: -Sonic Heroes probably needed a bit more time (and shorter stages), but honestly, I think more people would be more forgiving if the subsequent games were better. If they were, they'd just view Sonic Heroes as SEGA trying to get used to the new status quo. If the game was ever remastered and adjusted, this would reinforce that. So the game can afford to not be like a 9/10. - Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic & the Secret Rings should've been shelved and had the team work on Sonic 06. Hell, try and have the game be Yuji Naka's last game while at SEGA. The extra development time, manpower and vision would make Sonic 06 a lot more successful and on time. The other games can subsequently be released later on. Heck, they could apply the beta aspects from Shadow's game into Sonic 06 as his gameplay style, then refine that further into when his come outs proper. And of course, beyond refining the gameplay, the story. The obsession with being "realistic" was being inspired by the cinematic successes of Spider-Man and Batman Begins. So that sort of cinematic scope would still be there. - Though, outside the unneccessary morality path, I do like Shadow the Hedgehog's story more or less. People may complain about the presence of Black Doom and whatnot, but let's be real here, that was the best explanation for how we went from Biolizard to Shadow in terms of bioscientific development in such a short period of time and it explains the Eclipse Cannon. Dr. Gerald was desperate, but not stupid. - Knucles in Sonic World Adventure/Unleashed would work well, especially replacing the werehog stages and Tails could be figured out in too. Could help the series find more solid footing now. - Sonic Colors may not see much changes, though with more confidence in past level design, they may not feel the need to change as much. The boost mechanic may not be as prominent because there would still be the intent for more playable character, here like Tails. So we may see a fair bit less 2D platforming segments. - Sonic Generations would still be made and perhaps the Time Eater concept could be tied to Sonic 06. - Sonic Lost World would probably be better in terms of writing and consideration since having still using mutliple characters, it could be done here. As for which ones, difficult to say. I can't picture many outside of the Core 4 here. - Sonic Forces would pobably be a sort of follow-up for Heroes, at least in trying to include as many characters as they could to show off the spectacle. Could be a quasi-return of the Sonic Adventure 2 style, showcasing different teams and their approaches for missions. It'd be difficult sure, but with the archetypes in place, gameplay wouldn't be as screwy.At minimum, it'd be Team Sonic and Team Dark in SA2 style (with Omega instead of Eggman), or perhaps more the Speed, Flight, Power system, but expanding on differing stages with differing tricks.

I don’t get your argument about the sonic series not “covering its bases” and “firing on one cylinder”. I’d get it if you implied that the series should tackle new genres but you contradict this by saying “sonic comics were already a thing in 2017”. By that logic if the series had a modern rpg, it wouldn’t count since sonic chronicles exists. I just don’t see your point.
