Cannot believe it been 5 years, the disappointment from finishing this game still feels so fresh lol. While many of these levels had great moments & ideas most all of them were SO SHORT. I found that being my biggest disappointment with so many of them. There were a lot of times where I felt like a level was JUST getting good and then it just… ended. Hope the Cyberspace Levels in Frontiers learn from this game 😔

[@son-of-1810]

We’ll, the cyberspace stages aren’t the meat of Frontiers so the focus definitely wasn’t on them. They’re not terrible, they’ve reused level layouts from previous games but it’s on purpose here, so it has meaning. But almost everyone who’s played the Frontier’s demo has said the game is either good or great, just that cyberspace is the weakest part.

[@lakotapruitt5773]

@@son-of-1810 while they may not be the main meat of Frontiers, they do seem to gradually pick up in quality as the game goes on, with 1-7 being the best Cyberspace level we've seen so far. If they can keep that momentum going for the rest of the game, then Cyberspace might be worth checking out.

16:20 Interesting thing about the giant infinite creatures. There’s a glitch where you can use the void wisp’s Secret hover ability (that you can only activate if used to teleport and you land above a death pit) you can actually walk inside those things arms (since he never hit them they don’t have collision) and on the inside they actually have a blue water texture instead of the black one we see in the final product. Makes me wonder if those things were initially meant to be Perfect Chaos’ originally?

[@feiradragon7915]

Wouldn't surprise me. They look so weird compared to Infinite himself and the fact Chaos was brought back as an illusion like the other antagonists makes me think the devs had at least some plan for him. Really wish there'd been a Chaos boss and a Shadow clone boss. The game plot hinted at that happening without doing anything with it, even in the dlc content.

[@supermariozeldaoflel]

Their model skeletons are shaped like Chaos as well. The skeleton includes what would be Chaos' head tendrils.

[@shadowclone452]

My main issue with forces is one that a lot of people don't seem to talk about (or at least articulate very well). It's the acceleration physics. When you first start walking, you barely seem to move at all, but then in the span of about 1 second, you hit top speed. This makes platforming feel VERY strange. I either jump right after moving the control stick and barely go anywhere at all, or I wait slightly too long and send myself flying over the platform I was aiming at. I can adjust to this, but I can't help but feel like I shouldn't have to, y'know? It feels like a very specific "game feel" problem that is unique to Forces.

[@Kirbstern4]

Same here. It was the first thing I noticed back when I tried out the JP-only switch demo of the game

[@kiritosintern]

It’s a crime how Arsenal Pyramid’s first theme was only being played for 10 seconds. The full track is a banger. Also, I’m not a fan of quick step segments, but when Guardian Rock’s chase soundtrack went on I really didn’t mind it because of how sick it sounded.

If Luminous Forest was a one-time thing, the only level where you can just GO, it would absolutely be my favorite. I love the idea of a single level where the objective is simply to rip through an area, tearing your way from Point A to Point B, with absolutely no regard for the entire army in-between. As it stands, though, it just serves as a perfect illustration of the issues with Forces. I still like it, but the snake completely kills the flow. Anytime I replay the stage, I just exit level as soon as I get to it.

[@hydro3739]

Luminous forest actually has a short cut a lot of people missed (myself included until I found it on a whim). At the beginning of the section of the windy half-pipe, if you follow the enemies up the side, there's a homing attack chain that leads off the path and a neat short cut with rings and goes straight to the snake I think.

[@Ismatic1906]

I love mortar canyon. My main problem with it is that most of the level design can be skipped by jumping once or just holding forwards. For example the section where there are three paths has a ramp that lets you skip the whole section no skill required. I do like all the platforming when I’m not ignoring it to beat my best time by a millisecond though.

[@bickuribox12]

Would be great as an intro stage. Let players jump around for a quick minute, boost through enemies carefree, and air boost where we see fit to get used to how everything works. Then the "real" game would start afterwards. Of course, a 3 minute Mortar Canyon with the scope of Egg Fleet would be amazing too.

[@badersimari5693]

Your gameplay actually makes this game look fun.

[@skeLPCgamez]

As much as Forces disappointed us, I somehow always enjoyed this game from day one due to my attachment of the game from a nostalgic view of 2017, the first time experience being fun and the soundtrack being my favourite in the series with its synth approach. That remains unchanged (but of course, without ignoring its flaws). The floaty double jump and OP air boost really change up how you play the levels and speed run them to your advantage. My personal favourite levels are (in no order): Ghost Town, Arsenal Pyramid, Imperial Tower, Mortar Canyon, Enemy Territory, Null Space, Egg Gate, Park Avenue and Sunset Heights. I do wanna bring your Attention to Forces Re-Imagined mod. It remixes the level layouts with new paths, tougher object placement, and even completely NEW extensions of the stages to make them more akin to 2-3 minutes. That new Sunset Heights man was what I originally envisioned the level would’ve been before what we actually got. I think Sonic Forces was trying to take a more cinematic approach with its automated and dodging level design, but it finally does get realised in that mod with the grand setpieces. The next demo will be at SHC 2022 this month (October).

It really is a shame that Forces has so little to offer despite it having so much potential. Mortar Canyon makes me so upset because everything about it is so high stakes, from the music to the visual design to the environmental explosions. But it just ends before the stage really begins. A lot of stages in this game had the chance to be these big epic setpieces, similar to the ambitions of the Storybook games, but they all just kinda fall flat.

[@sebastianmartinez5963]

I really liked your video bro. Personally, I like Sonic Forces, it's not my favorite Sonic game, but it's one I can have fun with. Yes, I know it's short, and it has a lot of automation, but that didn't stop me from enjoying it. My favorite level is Null Space, because, not only is it 90% 3D, but it's possibly the level with the most alternate paths, plus the Fist Bump theme gives pure adrenaline vibes. Other levels that I like are: Park Avenue, Metropolitan Highway, Sunset Heights, Egg Gate, Ghost Town, Network Terminal, among others. It must be admitted that Shadow in this game did pretty good, not only because he had good levels, but because the character was well written and his participation was adequate, not to mention the good performance of Kirk Thornton, a shame that many people overlook it's.

[@EonNite]

Metropolitan Highway was such a wonderful stage. A shame it was so short.

[@frontiersmodel4781]

The thing that made me enjoy a lot more these levels are physics improvement mods that really make an upgrade to the Classic Stages (even if I alredy enjoyed them in the Vanilla game, but not to much), they're actually fun to play and I love those multiple pathways to take. You know, I like this game (6.5 is enough for me lol and maybe's because I didn't belong to its respective hype train), but I think that it would have been a great idea to make it as a full 2D game, why? Well, because of the 2D sections, they're actually pretty good and fun to master (I'm not saying that the entire of 3D sections are bad, not at all), seriously, even if they're way to short. For an example, I LOVE the Metropolitan Highway 2D sections because you need fast reaction input for make an insane speedrun full of satisfaction. Great video, as always. See you soon in Frontiers!

One nice little touch about Virtual Reality is that they bring back Supporting Me from SA2, which makes some sense because both situations are desperate battles for shadow to fulfill his duty In SA2 he was fighting the biolizard to keep his true promise to Maria to protect the world and help people be happy. In Forces he’s trying to escape Infinite’s mind trap to get back out and fight against Eggman, all the while hearing distortions of his friends telling him nothing is wrong. It’s just such a nice touch and if they gave that care to the rest of the game it would’ve been amazing

I'd like to see you rank P-06's stages in the same style as this. Great Video!

I've also replayed Forces recently and I kinda liked it. The fact that so many people hate this game is pretty sad to me. I wasn't suprised that the Iron Fortress was so high on the list at all I really like that stage because it really forces me to focus if I want to beat my time record. I played the Frontiers demo at gamescom and thanks to this video I can now see how they improved the boost stages in frontiers based on all the feedback that they got from Forces. The original layouts in Frontiers cyberspace levels are mostly focused on quick reaction time and cool shortcuts that you can make based on the knowledge of the level. Great video!

Yeah, it's sad that this game is so lame. It's the dmc2 of platformers

No way this man said Iron Fortress is one of the best Sonic Forces levels
