Looks like it has a lot of the same old Sonic mechanics I found so annoying: not being able to effectively see where you are going and if you get stopped on an incline, it takes you several seconds to get going again. I just finished playing Sonic Frontiers with my kids and we all enjoyed that one, I really hope they put out more following what they did with Frontiers.
I’m new to the franchise what would you say would be a good entry point, I don’t mind emulating either. Last sonic game I played was on the dreamcast? Was fun from what I remember as a kid, well fun enough to become a core memory.
Playing the originals is a good starting point. You can setup a Sega Genesis emulator to play them, but you can also get them on Google Play store for free (gotta watch ads between levels). However, I wouldn’t give up if those don’t work for you, they can be punishingly difficult and some of the mechanics can be really frustrating. I think the one you might be thinking of on the Dreamcast would be Sonic Adventure (You can actually get a remastered version on Steam for like 10 bucks). Sonic Frontiers also works as a good starting point. You don’t need any background knowledge to play and enjoy it. The characters reference some things from older games, but you’re not really missing out if you don’t get the references.
Reminds me of Sonic 4: Episode 1. I hope they do better and have more unique and creative zones.
