Personally, I want a really good 3d Sonic game. I've always preferred 3d but they've been usually very subpar. They need to master the basic functions and gameplay, making sure it feels good to play instead of trying to add and innovate some unnecessary mechanic or feature that will ultimately get shot down by fans.

[@blakedavis3400]

BlueSunStudios1 alright, let me tell you something. Sonic mania is not just good because of nostalgia. I and many other people grew up with 3D sonic games, and 3D sonic will always be great in my eyes(even if there are some bad 3D sonic games). And as a 3D sonic fan, I can tell you that it is not just nostalgia pandering. It is well made, fun, and overall a great game. I seriously recommend it to anyone who is a fan of platformers, even if you're not a huge sonic fan. I encourage you to give it the benefit of the doubt, and consider purchasing it yourself.

Dayne Fishwick didnt thought that dunkey would gave a sonic game 5/5

[@imperfect_dan7519]

giorgi ustiashvili of course you couldn't

[@Dragonking1984]

It's a rare treat to hear such excitement & passion about a game. Sonic Mania proves that they didn't need to fuck with the original formula they just needed to make more of it. Just like with other long running series (looking at you Resident Evil & Final Fantasy)

[@ikagura]

Agreed

[@shlokwaghela9560]

Not agreed, evolution was the way to go and they are returning to the roots way too often now

[@Dragonking1984]

@@shlokwaghela9560 They tried evolution with the sonic series. The result was dogshit like sonic unleashed and sonic and the black knight. Those who want something different should demand new games rather then screwing up already popular and successful ones.

[@shlokwaghela9560]

@@Dragonking1984 Wait, how tf is Unleashed dogshit? Like, if you are expecting a tight momentum based platformer, it does have that, so what's the issue? And, I did not really explain my point earlier but the argument that it was Sega's original vision to bound Sonic always to 2d is a misguided one, as the series always focused on getting better and bigger and more innovative each entry (Look at Sonic 1 to SA2 especially). Sure, it fumbled (Shadow the Hedgehog should've been the best Sonic game instead it is the worst) and had clearly bad ideas (Humans and Hedgehogs), but it was all because of time restraints forced by Sega, not the development team itself. As for the examples you gave, what do you mean Resident Evil and Final Fantasy haven't changed, they have SIGNIFICANTLY changed, especially Resident Evil, Final Fantasy less so but still. Honestly, I would've prefered if they kept building up on the foundation laid by SA2 and Sega should've provided them with enough developmental time. As of now, the only reason Sonic is so hated, is because it took too much criticism, now it's nothing but a shallow shade of what it was once meant to be all to appeal a wider audience who never cared. Frankly, it is sad that they are relying on pure nostalgia these days. Don't get me wrong, Mania is one of my favourite Sonic games like, ever, and while the level layouts are vastly different and improved, the visual themes are the same, which stops it from being my favourite classic game. In my eyes, 06 was the nail in the coffin which combined bad ideas with short development time while also having a good ambitious at heart. If you wanna see what it's like to keep the series as it was, look no further than Sonic 4. That's what you get.

The biggest compliment you can give a game to me is to say it is intrinsically motivating to play. A game that you beat once thats a masterpiece? That's one thing. How about coming back and feeling the exact same way? Its what separates the big boys from the pretenders, and thats what Sonic used to be all about. I'm so glad Mania brought that feeling back for Sonic fans.
