oh geez that sonic forces gameplay is making me feel claustrophobic. looks like it plays itself and for some reason i hate the two characters running/jumping side by side
i don't care about this game but gosh i find watching it strangely unpleasant
@alyx god, YEAH, seeing the two characters animate the same thing in sync while tethered by an invisible line makes me think of when I've done debugging like that. it looks *SO* fucking weird!!
and like, hell, this third person running forwards gameplay has never seemed interesting, but they've just kept doing the exact same thing for like 15 years now??
@alyx i agree. the way the combat looks also seems like they've learned nothing. particularly the zapping whip thing and the way the character slides forward while they're using it seems like something straight out of sonic heroes.
