They also tried that with Sonic Lost World in 2013 and it was dull and awful.Ĭlick to shrink.Don't quite agree with the top part, for me I think sa2's speed sections have the post potential and are just.never acted on. I mean, they did that with Knuckles and Amy in 1998 and it was dull and awful. None of this will ever happen though because Colors and Generations were flukes, Sonic Team is completely oblivious to the concepts of commitment and refinement, they seem to be underfunded as well, and SEGA just isn't good at holding on to Sonic Team's most talented creatives ( They lost the level designers who made Generations fun to Nintendo by the time Forces was being developed).

Replace the rather one-note side step mechanic with an ephemeral bullet time command not unlike Secret Ring's 'time break' ( just without that distorted black & white filter) that way new players can safety maneuver around obstacles while maintaining whatever comfortable clip they're at, and skilled players moving at top speed can gain better positioning towards alternate pathways while also dodging hazards. Give us big thrilling CTR-esque jumps off ramps that moves us closer to top speed while also rewarding us with the aforementioned ephemeral boost attack. Give us an involved/rewarding CTR-style drifting system where you hold down R1 to drift and tap L1 when Sonic flashes with electricity to move towards top speed and be rewarded with a more balanced and ephemeral boost attack.

Turn that overpowered 'boost' mechanic into a simple forward acceleration command to free up space on the control stick for better turning.

Sonic doesn't need to go 300 god damn miles per hour, his default speed 'limit' should be that of a Mario Kart in 100 CC. I will argue till I'm blue in the face that the so called 'boost formula' is the most solid 3D foundation that Sonic has ever had, and they should continue forward with it.īUT they just need to SLOW THAT SHIT DOWN and make it more like Mario Kart/Crash Team Racing ( it's, like, halfway there anyways).
