Do they usually fix the control patches in these games?

I don't think any past Sonic game's patches adjusted the controls, no.

That's a shame. They could have the opportunity to improve on the gameplay if the DL Cs focused on improving gameplay.

There is an extra scene for beating the game on hard mode, not just the extra boss.

Is there? I checked the trope page and all it talks about is the scene where Eggman finds Sage again, which I got after beating the game on Normal mode.

[up]Oh, was that not exclusive to hard mode? I was going off what everyone else said, as I played the whole game on hard.

I'm betting on more Cyberspace stages. Seems like the simplest option they could do anyway. And it allows for more good music.

More Big fishing stages

Or more fish/weird stuff to fish out?

Like maybe Seaman? wink

You can pull out E-series robots and Metal Sonic.

Secret Boss DLC Idea: If you fish too much, Sonic will get an increasingly high random chance to pull Perfect Chaos, who you then have to fight.

I've seen one piece of fanart where Sonic fishes out the giant truck.

I kind of just want them to do a DLC for an extra boss, to give The End another boss battle.

To win, you need to adapt, and to adapt, you need to be able to laugh away all the restraints. Everything holding you back.

Do the fishing holes just... cycle through the fish, and all it takes to get all the fish at a hole is enough Purple Coins to last you to get them all? I had joked about a speedrun category for this game "All Fish Percent" but I can't decide if that would make the category better or worse if its not RNG at all...

Theres little to no RNG in fishing as far as I can tell. You definitely can't get repeats until you finished a fishing spot, and the first cycle has a set order. I haven't fished enough to know if that holds afterward.

I did some fishing after catching everything, and the only RNG I could figure out is when the scrolls and treasure chests would appear. Everything else would appear in the same order when fished out of the lakes.

Found the Ares Island fishing spot. Ah, so they do spice it up. Casts are more expensive, the indicator for hooking the fish moves faster, and for bigger catches, there are multiple targets you have to line up the indicator with. Cool.

Also love that they just dead-ass put the entire Sky Rail level in this game. The cool thing is, if you go back to Sonic Adventure 2 most of those alternate paths are there. Just harder to get to since you need to manage momentum, jumps, and more finicky Homing Attack and Light Dash.

It does make me wish once again that they had used more then just their 4 or so skins for Cyberspace levels. We missed out on HD Pumpkin Mountains... sad

Yyyyyyep. Kinda sad Sega cheaped out there.

Also read some of the older Archie issues, and the one page gag strip featuring Sally slamming Sonic in the face with a pie actually made me grin. I dunno if its me getting old but man the simple things in life.

The homing attack wasn't really finicky in Adventure 2...

You just had to hold the direction of an enemy, whereas in Sonic Frontiers Sonic (and the camera) needs to be facing the enemy.

If you mean homing attack orbit, well then...

I found it more finicky in Heroes than Adventure 2, but the Light Dash could be finicky if the rings were floating.

I more just mean with the target reticule, you know exactly where your Homing Attack is going. The Homing Attack was basically fine in SA2 though.

Apparently Frontiers' Japanese translation was altered because the original English version was "easy to understand."

A lot of the lines are completely different.

"Maybe it's part of their national character, but I suppose "reading between the lines" isn't really a thing in America. I'm sure American audiences love this sort of simple, cinematic experience, but we've performed revisions to all the lines."

Is this going to be the Sega executives' take away from this game? That American writers are bad because they write stories that the player can actually follow, and thus they will never do that again?
