Why the heck is this game’s story tied to Sonic X? I liked that series, sure, but it really hasn’t aged well. Also, mixing it with the canon of the games simply doesn’t work because it adapted Adventure 1 and 2’s stories and used Emerl for a completely different story altogether. Both versions of those stories can’t have happened at the same time. Beyond that, doesn’t a large amount of the community hate Chris? Acknowledging him like this is guaranteed to be controversial. Also no Cosmo? Seriously? At least tell me the plant that’s related to her gets an appearance somewhere in the game.

Sonic and the dark brotherhood should have had a sequel but because of the few sells of the game and the acquisition of Bioware by ElectronicArts, the studio abandoned this idea and this game wasn't canon despite the interesting story about Echidnas, the link to Sonic adventure 1 and Sonic battle. This proves that fan games aren't necessary all better than official games. I hope that Sonic frontiers will have a good story and, if they decide to show again some vilains like Zavok, Metal Sonic or Infinite, they have to be a little more written like in Sonic IDW (even if this serie isn't perfect but Zavok has at least a better role here).

@@leik7728, criticizing something for what it is is much different than passionately hating it and calling it out on the daily. If someone passionately hates a Sonic fan game in a way where they almost go out of their way to humiliate it and nag about it, that individual needs help badly and the main problems do not exist with the game at that point. It's someone's passion project. Criticize it, point out what you thought could have definitely been better, and then shut up and move on and hope they look at what you say as advice or at least something to look into. I would say that people who like the game should do the same thing. There are definitely Sonic fan games that deserve more credit than others, and there are certainly some Sonic fan games that deserve less credit than others, but passionately hating one to such an extent only really shows how desperate people are to nag on about others. If I were to make a Sonic fan game, which I have debated upon doing, I would expect people to throw criticism, praise, and random hatred at me. I would enjoy the praise, but at the end of the day if it isn't criticism or advice, it's useless unless there is something to build off of. Yes, many people are talking about why they don't like it, which is helpful, but then they continue on their opinion on why it is such a horrible thing that should be forgotten and never played or thought of in the first place. And then it's just toxic and stupid. Nazo Unleashed is a great example of a fan work that had pretty much the opposite reaction from fans, yet pretty much did the exact same thing was even less effort. A lot of planning and effort goes into these types of games and projects, both animating and game designing, and there are always critiques to be made and opinions to be had. If someone can't be respectful or tolerant in their opinions, then they aren't worth the words they say. As a creator, it is best to put forth as much effort in creativity and everything you do, be it a personal project or a fan project, and while one has many forms of feedback that they will get, you must ignore the majority of the positive, almost all of the overtly negative, and only listen to the ones that give critical feedback to build off of for better and for worse. This game clearly has many problems, but I think it has far too many things that it tried to do and did do mostly successful and uniquely in its own design, too much so to actually call it trash or anything remotely similar. Obviously, that is my opinion, but since this is a fan game, I do believe that most of the more toxic and hateful opinions should be looked over and forgotten themselves.

Not really, I'd say Sonic Omens seems much worse. The HDTF crowdfunding was also used to acquire an official license from Valve, so the monetization was justified and approved. Yeah, they might have been lazy using pre-exiting assets, but assets can be bought, so just seeing them isn't a proof they were stolen. And to be honest, buying assets is nowhere as bad as making a questionable underwear texture for an underaged character. Also, only the project lead of HDTF was awful and tricked everyone, even the devs, unlike Sonic Omens where there are definitely more douchebags in the dev team. Heck, the HDTF devs are even still patching the game by their own will despite never getting paid by that moron (who is still getting all purchase revenue), because in the end they truly care about what they made, and want to leave something at least decent. Again verry different than the Sonic Omens devs going against anyone not praising the game.

[@DemonDethchase]

Playable Tails stages? More like Fox McCloud by the look of it! With the voice acting, I really do can't help but think "We did twenty takes, and THAT was the best one!" But for the story, it doesn't make any sense for Chris or Shadow to look at working with a Metarax. Especially when you consider the events of Sonic X and the Metarex Saga happened within the Omens universe, making it for Shadow seem like "character acts dumb so the plot can happen." Had he been mind controlled by the Metarex, like the Japanese version of Rise of Lyric, it might have been more believable but when he's already move on and what the Metarex desires flies in the face of his promise to Maria. And way to undermine the importance of the Chaos Emeralds, if Sonic can now go Super anytime he wants. Despite it being a looker, the whole thing feels like cheap bootleg, with no real respect to the original source material. Also with Weight of The World, while a good song but having heard they did have another song that dropped without warning because it didn't sound enough like Bury The Light from Devil May Cry 5 kinda turns me off from it. It seems less like, "I want to write a good song." And being more "I want to write a song like Bury the Light - with its 55,535,075 views in just about 2 years - so I can get the same attention!" Making it more like a cheap copy, rather than it coming from a place of sincerity. Especially when you look at Fly With Me from the fan project, Sonic and Tails R. Yes, like Weight, it had a vocalist who sang on the official games, Tony Harnell, but it didn't give the impression of trying to chase a modern trend, and instead were just trying to write a good song, which still fit the spirit of the source material, being the games pre-2010.

[@brawler5760]

That’s the impression I got with Weight of the World. It feels like a song manufactured to ride the coat tails of other songs, and I feel bad for Bentley Jones for having to sing this. And like you said, Fly With Me is more of a song that came from a place of sincerity, and I guess the entirety of Sonic and Tails R can be summed up as that, a passion project.

But I do think radio drama is exactly the tone the games need to get back to, rather than whatever the hell Omens was trying to do. Especially with how Shadow was written, rather than him being made into what looks to be must be a Metarex henchmen, given that he's helping them. I've not seen the whole thing yet, but I did see him giving what Chaos Emeralds he had to the Metarex willingly after blindsiding Sonic with a cheap shot from behind.

I can tell from the tree level and Weeping Rift they take a lot of inspiration from Ori. Some things being basically identical in theme some way or another. Like 10:02, the ‘giant bird’ is basically just a resemblance to Shriek. Like for earlier in the story, when Tails is carrying Sonic, they brush past a few trees. Branches are disturbed and leaves fly into the air. Just like in WotW’s cutscene when Ku eventually flies. The next scene is also identical, when Tails ascends upwards around the mountain.

[@brawler5760]

I actually think they crossed over the line between “inspiration” and “unoriginal.” Tree Palace and Waterfall Chase basically play like the Ginso Tree from Blind Forest beat for beat. The Gnarl plays almost exactly like the escape sequence from the Windswept Wastes from Will of the Wisps, and Weeping Rift is a 1:1 copy of Weeping Ridge, HELL THE NAME IS WEEPING RIFT. It even has the insta kill giant bird from those games, but even worse since you can dodge them easily in both Ori games.

I think you can change the sensitivity of the tornado camera movement, not sure tho but it's worth looking into. As for united railroad, you're supposed to use chaos control to slow down time and get by the fast moving floors. As for chaos dash, it can be used to move upwards without aiming if you hold jump and activate chaos dash.

[@the-aspiring-creator4249]

1 year late but wanted to note two things. You can change the sensitivity but when we're talking controllers? It's still pretty lackluster and stiff. Basically if you're gonna play the Tornado segments, you must use keyboard and mouse in order to have the manueverability. As for United Railroad? The problem with that segment is that they don't properly signpost to you that you can do that. You're just expected to go "Oh moving floors, better use Chaos Control." and for the record, the tutorial only shows you can do this because otherwise, timing your jumps is more than enough to get through the one segment in Shadow's first level and timing a boost and potentially a jump is fine enough to get through the floor section and the thing is? It would've been so easy for just an audio cue or even a little visual hint to suggest using it.
