Why are there no Win Back the Crowd examples on the YMMV page for Sonic Frontiers?

Win Back the Crowd requires the work to be released.

It's not out yet, so time will tell if it really does win back the crowd.

Long story short a lot of tropes tend to get misused something fierce. Sometimes they just don't really work.

Are explosions science?

The short is probably that Win Back The Crowd represents a specific tangible series of events (that is: "work does something that causes the audience to turn away from it, but the does something that erases its existing bad press"), whereas Win The Crowd is just "people liked this," for which we already have several things that work.

So I just listened to “Vandalize”, and the song gives me RWBY-vibes.

Which means I love it. Definitely a top 5 Sonic song.

Which Volume of RWBY or just RWBY in general?

RWBY in general.

RWBY is much like Sonic in that no matter the quality of the product, the soundtrack is amazing.

And the RWBY-vibes I get from “Vandalize” make sense in that both Frontiers and RWBY Volume 9 have similar premises. Protagonist group gets sent to a strange island and must find their way home and encounter an odd inhabitant of said island.

Bonus points for Ruby and Sonic both having speed as their power.

The sheer amount of noughties energy from these songs is giving me life.

The instrumental (especially the guitar) and the lyrics are fine, but I'm not sold on the vocals. They sound too whiny and high-pitched for my taste. I'd be down with a female vocalist though.

Its so weird because the people I've seen who are less than enthusiastic are the same people I see not really like the noughtie era games.

I never got to interact with a lot fans who didn't like those games, so seeing them react to these songs now is weird.
