Game is surprisingly quite fun but lacks a certain bit of polish which results in quite a janky experience. God of War Ragnarok is arriving at my doorstep tomorrow so RIP playthrough until I'm done with that.

Bayonetta 3 Infinite Climax playthrough and Sonic Frontiers are taking a backseat to Dad of Boy 2. Not to mention Tactics Ogre and Pokemon will have come out too when I'm done. What a month for video games.

I was also thinking of one review I saw where someone complained that there are no discernable land markers in the open zones. Going by the first one, I thought that was completely false. There were definitely parts that helped me navigate them based on what was around. I don't know if that's the case for the rest of the zones, but I thought I very distinctly knew roundabouts where everything was and where to head.

I still haven't figured out how to make the Koko fast travel work. I have the scrolls but can't do anything on the map or by talking to them.

Think its a tab on the map where it removes all the other stuff and just has the koko which you can hit and then you appear right next to them

I'm still so absolutely confused by the IGN trailer stuff they revealed where things were all unfinished and they just went about everything in such a boring way.

Why? Just why? I can't believe they did that. Like wait until month for a better build or something. Nobody needed to see this game right then and there!

Nintendo should do this with Mario. I mean if they botch it, well, there's no such thing because who cares about the lore in a Mario game

....Oh I just assumed you meant the boat lol.

I don't believe there's a drift button. The are green drift pads that put you into drift mode until you hit your next pad in some stages.

Just finished it and yeah this is pretty damn accurate. There are a lot more including non story ones you can have pop up during exploration like Tangle being canon so now we got comics stuff in the mix.

Pretty great game. Obviously there were flaws and issues but if they can fix those and take the best parts of other games like daytime Unleashed stages and Chao Garden we'll be golden! Really dug open zone and just blitzing across the environments island 3 was a pain sometimes with lava and just navigating though but still fun to just run around at fuck you speed.

Also in regards to the end man they're REALLY giving me Sonic Adventure 3 buildup vibes with everyone going on their own personal arcs and the lore stuff going on.

Same dude.

But at least all of these puzzles are so cool and challenging! My favorite part has been watching Sonic just parkour and bounce around everything. It's perfect and never gets old and every one of them feels unique.

"Kishimoto also stated that he considers Sonic Frontiers a global playtest, suggesting that he doesnt consider the games release to be the end of the story.
Im sorry I havent contacted you until now, because weve been busy since the release date, Kishimoto tweeted."

Sounds more like the game's going to get a bunch of patches fixing problems it has. Glad I'm waiting a few months to play it!

Finished the first island last night and I'm having a blast. It has a Breath of the Wild open world feel to it in that the map isn't overloaded with a ton of things to do, so it isn't overwhelming and it lets me just go at my own pace.

So I don't know but I've been enjoying this 3rd area. I assume a lot of peoples issues with it is that there's a lot of forced 2D segments in the air to really get anywhere and there's not a ton of just on foot exploration like the first two maps. I just have to keep in mind that I need to get into these sections as the very beginning of them or the game will sometimes miss the trigger to actually make it 2D then you just can't really get through those sections.

But I like how this map is more unique looking and it seems to have the right balance of things to do. More than 1st map, but not as overloaded as the 2nd map.

spending all my extra fishing points on attack and defense upgrades after I finished getting Egg Logs ended up being the right move because all fights are trivial right now with my levels in the 60s

Third area was a bit annoying because there's less freedom and more annoying elements like 2D sections you get locked into. Overall I enjoyed it a lot though, but it was the weakest of the first three.

Beat island 4 (which was fun but short).

Island 5 shares a lot with island 1 which sucks, but it at least starts introducing new stuff. Looking forward to it!

I just finished Island 3 100%. Yeah, my problem with it is that it's all 2D sections to get all the memories, but...

The boss was the best so far. And music had a bit of Infinite energy.
