Firm hopes it will eventually match Frontiers’ sales
Kind of seems silly to buy any game developed by Sonic Team these days. They are either half-baked ideas (Sonic with a sword? Sonic as a werewolf?) or glitchy messes with repetitive, cheap gameplay (Frontiers, Lost World). They seem to rarely learn from previous mistakes or grow as a development team, similar to Gamefreak. Both studios are sustained by name recognition.
As much as I’m very critical of both these studios, that’s really downplaying Sonic Frontiers. It was puzzling that they decided to go for a realistic style while having floating platforms everywhere, but that was a competent game that a lot of people enjoyed. I wouldn’t even call it glitchy, playing it lately I didn’t see a single one. Maybe it had some glitches on release, but unfortunately this is commonplace these days.
