Why does everyone shit on the boost but not the homing attack?
>>
>>741955492
They grew up thinking that the homing attack is a necessity of 3D gameplay because they were kids when exposed to it.
>>
Boost turns speed into a binary and restricts player control.
Homing Attack is mostly optional and people criticize an abundance of homing attack chains.

This is probably the least slop Sonic game released since Mania and before that it was OG Generations
>>
>>741960217
Generations was a thinly disguised Unleashed expansion pack with a *really* ass 2D Sonic taking up half the game.

But yeah. Unleashed, Colors, Generations and Shad Gen are the only HD 3D Sonics that aren't slop. Flawed, definitely, but they're actual damn games.

>Colors was mostly 2D and the Wii wasn't HD.
Whatever, it's built on top of Unleashed, you know what I mean.
>>
>Sonic Generations
One of the best Sonic boost games
>Shadow Generations
Sonic Lost World engine trash
>>
>>741961305
Shadow plays better than Sonic did, sorry champ. Generations was already a neutered Unleashed in controls while Shadow is them finally getting them right again after a fucking decade.
>>
>>741961408
Shadow Generations is literally Lost World with a fake boost. Sure you can do sharp turns and run in a circle, but that just exposes the fact that its not a real boost game. You're not supposed to be doing that in a fast paced crash course game like Unleashed/Gens. And the homing attack is also awful, it feels like you're Thwomp from Mario 64. Everything was fine before Lost World/Forces.
If they had simply put Shadow over Sonic in Generations and made new levels for it it would have been a 10/10

>that just exposes the fact that its not a real boost game
Good. It's better for that. Wish they'd remove the button entirely.
>>
>>741962208
More accurately it's Sonic Frontiers with better control, which itself was Sonic Forces with better control, which itself was Lost World with the parkour ripped out.
>>
Bias because they were kids when Sonic Adventure came out.
>>
>>741962318
Fine, but atleast make the game be honest about what it is. If youre gonna keep using the Lost World engine atleast bring back its spindash or something.
>>741962437
Exactly. Its also why in Frontiers you randomly stick to the terrain. It still has the Mario Galaxy thing in its DNA
>>
>>741955492
People do shit on it, but also homing is totally different from boost, in terms of gameplay and motivation.
