Description
I've been seeing too much skepticism with Frontiers all over the place ever since we got a reveal for this game. All I have to say is that I'm sick and tired of it, like, its getting way too out of hand at this point for this game and it's none of my business to focus on the negative side of things in a lot of stuff out there but with Frontiers gaining so much crossfire of either hate, fear, skeptical, concern. You have rights to feel that way in anything but the way people are taking it is annoying. You can be cautious with this game as we get more of it and that's fine by me as long you have hope but if you take it in the wrong way negatively, I get heated.

After TGA with the reveal trailer of Sonic Frontiers title and the holiday release date, many are excited for the while some are leaning towards hate of it for many reasons and I've seen many reasons. Many think that Sonic shouldn't even be in a open world environment like he doesn't fit in it due to the fact from the trailer back in December but people don't even understand why the trailer is the way it is and I know that I've experience something like this before in terms of video games that are big budget titles. We have to remember that high budget title games are not going to be talked about in a long time do to development, and development is time consuming and it takes a while for them to say more about it in interviews, gaming conventions, and other stuff. Also with what we got, BOTW did the same with many of the trailers for the first game, they didn't show that much gameplay, they showed what the world will be like and as time went on with the Wii U era all the way to Nintendo Switch, we got more from it. It's called pre-alpha footage for a reason, its a early build of what was there in the beginning before more was added later on, Sonic is doing the same for this and he has done it in the past but this game in particular is different and I can tell.

I know that some of you are afraid and desperate for this game, some of are afraid because of Sonic Forces because this is the next mainline Sonic title and we cannot have that same experience again with the previous titles that has happened in the past and with the whole Sonic model controversy that happened with the screenshot that got taken down on the Instagram and the Korean PlayStation account. I also know that some say the one who's directing it, Morio Kishimoto, who did Colors, Lost World, Forces and other stuff that he's known for, keep in mind that we have the producer Sachiko Kawamura, who has been with Sonic since 3D Blast and she was the one who did the Chao Garden and we got Ian Flynn, I know some will put some controversy on me about him but he's the best we got, we should be happy for him to get this opportunity of him writing and scripting the game it's not like we're getting back the previous two writers anyway, we need someone who truly understands Sonic, Ian can do it, I know some things might be limited to him but I know he'll do his best. Also I know someone mentioned about Shiro Maekawa calling his writing about obsession with romance and AIDS, that's so uncalled for, he has written great stories at the time in the early years of 3D and from last years Sonic Channel art that I do, he has written stories for each month, it doesn't matter about 06, he's a great writer and I still remember the interview he had. I say that I honestly don't care about the model, is it a placeholder, possibly, are they gonna change it, most likely because if that's the model they are going to use, then that means that stuff can be added to be different and with the whole thing with the shorter quills, that shit happened with Sonic Lost World and no one was complaining until now, I've seen it in Sonic Runners, Sonic Runners Adventure, and Sonic Forces, and with the thing with the blue color, the colors changes because of the world placement he's in, so that means his color blue will change base on the area he's in. I've seen the screenshots of Forces development and the engine looks great from what people are not seeing, if you want to see, I suggest you look it up. Because you need an engine that is capable to handle through the next gen hardware. I also know many are desperate about this the game because of lack of news, and they need to be more transparent about it but I know some games that have been in development for a long time and not have been talked about until it was time to say more about it and I'll say what games that I remember that were in development for a long time that were big budget titles. Like the fans were desperate to have Sega and Sonic Team to take there time on the game and we're happy while some are frustrated about the news sake and again, it takes a while for news to be talked about, Aaron Webber said it himself about the matter of the games now.

“The longer it takes the more antsy we get. Back in the day, every year there was a new Sonic game. But because of that, the quality of the games weren’t where they needed to be. A couple of years ago we said that’s going to change going forward. We’re going to take more time going forward. So you’ll have to wait longer for trailers and stuff. The patience, hopefully, will be worth it in the end. As soon as we have news we’ll share it with you. That’s the best I can say.” - Aaron Webber

And we're seeing that right now, back in 2019 at the SXSW, they said the next game is in development, so that means they have a bunch of time to make the game going forward. Since that announced, news about the next title game, went slower, that's how it works with big budget games, they will say much about it through the process of being developed at this time. I remember when I would go on Twitter, some fans would nag and complain about news, and I can tell those are some fans that aren't up to date about the current situation, I was fully well-aware about this happening back in 2020 as the pandemic started. When that was happening, I waited, and I'm glad that I wait until last year for his 30th anniversary came by, we had a big amount of announcements for 2021 and it was worth for me, I waited patiently for all the stuff that was happening, the merch, the movie, the games, the television show, even the comics. I waited until the time was right them to speak about it. 2020 was the year that many are calling the "Sonic Drought" because of the lack of news, at least in terms of the next big game, because everyone was waiting for the next game announced but COVID came in and put things on hold for big announcements and that I didn't care, I had other things to do at the time to distract myself. Let's think about it with some of the biggest games that are coming out this year and the next years to come. When something like this happens, they don't speak about it in terms of announcements and interviews, so that means they won't reveal anything until that time comes and I can think about a few games that I know. I can backtrack my memories of games that we were excited for.

Think about it with some of the franchises that we know, Bayonetta 3 was announced so many years ago with a teaser and then we were left in the dark for so long until the Nintendo Direct of last year showed us more of the game, we got gameplay and a release of this year, and I can remember hearing that fans would try to talk to the developers, producers and directors about the game. I can tell that was annoying to deal with because those fans are desperate to see what's happening and I know the transparency matters in a lot of things out there but we have to remember that some stuff out there will never be talked about until they are ready to present something. It goes along with Breath of the Wild 2, that game is suppose to come out this year, might be delayed to next year from things that I've been hearing but that is also the same thing, we only got that teaser that long ago that the sequel was being in development and then we've got some gameplay last year of the game and some are even curious of what is going on and what the official title is because they said it would be spoiler if that were the case, so right now news about BOTW 2 won't happen for a while, I remember talking with a friend on Discord about this when last month happen with the first Nintendo Direct, I told her saying that it's not time to talk about the game, I can guarantee they want to save it up for the summer because that's the biggest gaming events happening and revealing right now is on there call. Nintendo gets to decide when to talk about big budget titles like that and its the same with Sega with Sonic Frontiers and even Sonic Origins. Kingdom Hearts 3, I remember when that game was in development, that game took years to make until 2019 with it's official release, I remember the first trailer to that game today from how much it change because they were using a different engine at the time and switch to UE4 for the final game, I waited for news and announcements for the game back in high school and then when more interviews and trailers came out, I was excited, even with the first trailer, I was excited and nothing could of stop me from being excited, I never cared about the delays that were pushed, the game needs to be at its max and it was. I had so much fun with the game when I first got it back in my freshman year of college. All that waiting was worth it for me, a delayed game is better than a rushed game. We all know who says that, and that's all I care for. I know other games that also were in these scenarios but I'm only mentioning three right now. I also have lots to say about what I see ever since the announced trailer from some fans.

What we got back in December was worth it for me and some were complaining about the world, I remember that some privilege fuckers talking shit about the graphics, nothing in the game like where are the rings, dashers, loops, rails, etc. Like fucking hell, the game was suppose to show us the world he'll be placed in. Some of the games that are open world will show us portions of the environment to tell us saying "Sonic will be in this open world environment," That's all I can see from it to get me excited, I didn't care about the other stuff people were bitching about. When I saw it, all I can think about is how excited I am about it, I'm ready for the next experience. Some are even saying that Sonic shouldn't even be in a open world game like nobody asked for it. Everyone wanted Sonic to be in a open world environment, you can't speak for everyone like all agree when that's not even true, you don't want it, so you bash it like its going to change something, just don't get the game then, you don't need to waste your time and money on something that is not your interest. Another person was complaining about open world as in like why should Sonic or Pokémon should be in open world? The anonymous even said with GTAV and RDR2 (Red Dead Redemption 2) are not very fun and nothing interesting, those two games are top tier like BOTW cucker. Someone else even said that the people at Sonic Team should be replaced and killed and be with spritely go-getters that are hungry to prove themselves.

Getting rid of the people who've been working with Sonic for about 30 years have been doing their best to carry this franchise to still be lit up in many of us and getting new people who don't know what they're doing isn't going to solve it. Someone even made of autistic people saying "autistic braindead children Sonic games." For starters, I'm autistic, I don't care if you make fun of me because of it, I'll very likely not care and not give a shit about you, but that alone can hurt others and I will not accept that, calling the developers of Frontiers retarded. Others are saying never believe in Iizuka when he's been working with Sonic for almost 30 years since Sonic 3 who loves this franchise, saying that the game is going to be a forgettable mediocre game, someone said he's not a fan of the open world games, and it can be from a different franchise too when Legends was about to come out, he complained about the graphics saying they are shitty, and the other person said he's tired 99% of the time for specific reasons, just don't play open world games. And then another person was so stupid as fuck about Sonic only being Mario's rival and Frontiers being a ripoff of BOTW. I don't really want to say the word but some are calling fans in terms of the gameplay fags, like Classicfags, Adventurefags, Boostfags, Boostcucks, etc. Someone even made fun of Even Stanley when she's a great artist and writer, she has done Ghost of the Future, her work in phenomenal. Another even said Sonic should kill himself, the game will sell like shit, saying Roger will be fired after Frontiers when that's not true, say the fandub actor is better (btw watch it if you haven't, its so funny.) Saying that the music will be forgettable when Jun Senoue is working on the games music which will be fucking awesome, someone even wanted a Sonic dating sims game, okay, that's cringe and weird, not a bad idea, but Sega will never let happen on their part. All this stuff I'm saying is from fans who can be toxic, negative, or not even part of Sonic.

Those who aren't excited are either diehard fans of Sonic or fans of nostalgia who only care about a certain formula like Classic, Adventure, or Boost that think open world is stupid for Sonic. Again, don't get the game, not that hard. I know about the track record of Sonic games in the past 10 years and I know only a few were able to be good enough like Colors, Generations, and Mania. I don't play a fool like I don't know when I do, but I still play those games that people don't like, and making fun of people who do play them shows that you don't support it, you have rights not liking a game but calling someone out who does like it is wrong, I still play Sonic Colors: Ultimate despite some quirks, I play it because I wanted this game to come on new hardware for years and I finally got it, it doesn't matter to me about the other stuff, I'll still play it, I do the same for Team Sonic Racing, Sonic Forces, or any other game, like I don't care, I just wanna have fun and you can't take away from someone who wants to have fun from a game that you may not like but someone else will. It's about being respectful and open minded about that stuff. I don't want people to think that I'm being toxic from all of this when I'm not, I had to deal with a few people who were just being stubborn, one person said that he respects fans who like a game that is not his interest but called Sega and the fans stupid for the fact Colors was getting ported, I got mad because he was a hypocrite, another fan who I didn't reply but have to screenshot of his message had nothing to do from what I posted last year and it was just childish behavior, and this person was about Smash and how I said I didn't agree over that Goku would never be in Smash but he got salty over it and called me retarded. That's another story. I'm not being overly positive or critically negative, I'm neither, I'm just a normal fan who loves a franchise but I fight back when I can't agree with something that is very very wrong. And those who say the game will fail and you've seen it on YouTube, they have their rights of sharing the opinions they have but not everyone understands how video games work.

Sonic Central leak has been coming out recently stating that we'll have another one on the 18th this month which is next week from now, let me say that I don't find it 100% real, because I remember that some leakers would say something that with a specific date and it can mostly be wrong, some have may been correct but we can't guarantee if that's the possibility of it coming next week, so we'll have to wait and see what happens and if nothing happens on the 18th? Oh well, you shouldn't always get your hopes up like that, take it with a grain of salt and remember that this is a 50/50, so the most likely case can be true or it can be fact. I never really even trust leaks until more information proves me that it can be legit and that I'll take it. I've seen some leaks in other stuff and I would have to be careful about and not raise my expectation about it. Because if its false, then that is on my call for believing in it so bare that in mind. I've already seen the information of what it was said but I'll wait on the 18th to see if it's real or not.

Future Game Show, I know it was just announced that the Spring Future Game Show will be coming around after my birthday on March 24th. I've read the article about it's return and how to watch it, how long it'll be, who will host it and stuff like that. Many have jump the gun of saying that Sonic Frontiers will be there because it mention "Sega" but I know damn well the case that there is no proof it being confirmed. What it said in the article was what was in the Game Show previously, "previously." That's what they said, so it's not confirmed that they'll be there, I've even done some research to see who will participate in that event and nothing has been said of how will be in it. Sega can be in it again, but it hasn't been said, so we have no idea right now if they are going to be there or not so let's see in the coming weeks after my birthday if they are going to be there and if they are, remember, they have other IPS than just Sonic even though he is the mascot of the company, you Atlus as well so that could happen too. For right now, be patient and see who will make an appearance and if Sega is not there, then that means they are saving up for a bigger event like E3, Summer Game Fest, and Gamescom. Those are coming as well. Just wait.

Gameplay will come, I know it will, but does it matter? Yes and no. Yes, because its big budget title game and fans need to know what to expect when the game draws near, we have to see to know what we will be once we get are hands on it, whether its small or large gameplay, we have something to look forward to. But also no, gameplay doesn't always matter, especially when it's not ready to be presented, does that mean they are confident? I don't know. Does it mean mean they are not ready? Pretty much. There are many reasons why we haven't seen it yet and if the rumor of another Sonic Central and Spring Future Game Show, they have rights not to show gameplay. They decide on how they are going to market the game. So if they decide to show gameplay after the movie, it can be after the movie, even when we get more updates in interviews. Gameplay doesn't make a game, it's more than that, there are other things that make the game every important to make it better. That gameplay will come, but I want to wait until they are ready, because if we got something that wasn't presentable, then the issue will happen, it happen with Halo Infinite, that's why the game got delayed to last year to fix and polish the game. Don't rush the process, trust the process. I know someone will say if there's not gameplay, you shouldn't be hype for it, that's for you to say but not for everyone else, we can be excited whether there is gameplay or not, if someone is excited, someone is excited, and that's fine. Like yeah, if something is not presentable to you that doesn't look promising, then that's fine, I know that you're not telling people what to do at that but to keep in mind that not everyone is going to agree with it and just be excited for something. It's better to have something than nothing to remind us something is coming.

I'll finally say that I pity the fans, overreacting to a lot of things, pressuring Sega and Sonic Team to release or talk about something, seeing if something related to Sonic Forces that will claim that the game is doomed. The game will not be doomed but they set themselves up thinking in terms of what's happening that game will be bad in terms of the model, the writer, the producer, no gameplay, etc. They'll only view it negatively and only see the faults and the reception from those dissatisfied once the game comes out this year. I'm not expecting everyone to love Frontiers but I want people to be smart and have some hope, because it never hurts to have hope even though yeah, the track record is not great, but I believe this game will make its mark, along with Sonic Origins too, those two games will be great. I know we were suppose to get news about it but I have heard that a delay has happen if I remember correctly but the game isn't canceled, we're getting that game, some thought that the game will come before the Sonic Movie 2 but it's coming out before Sonic Frontiers, we'll get news of that game too, but it's like with every game out there, we won't here stuff until its ready to be presented, and I bet they want to do more with Origins and we also have to consider that we are getting Sonic 3&K after all these years to the new hardware so it'll take time.

We have great people within Sonic who loves this franchise and that also goes for the community but we are only seen as toxic but that happens when things get out of hand with some fans and when Sega screws up. But overall, I hope still, I'm not giving up, nor you should tell me to, you can't stop my determination and faith for Sonic, he's not going away as people say he will. Not likely, no way, he'll still be big as years to come. If anything, take some time away from Sonic and focus on other stuff that you like or if you to do things in the real world, then do that, because that's what I do. I'll have my hope with me.

I wanted to get this off of my chest for a long time now and I'm just tired of fans not understanding how this stuff works in terms of video games, including Sonic, we all love video games but I feel like all the time no understands how much strain and stress developers have to go through for something like this for a high budget title and this isn't every year is a new Sonic game, no, this a game that will take a while to be made and that means like I said, it won't be talked about for a while, I've seen it, I know it because of the stuff I develop. How the fuck to do think I feel when I develop new sprites, drawings, sprite pictures and animations? It's hard work and no one seems to see it. I'm stressed out to make things that I want to make and present to others, it's not like I want to keep a high reputation but art is no joke, I have to work hard on this stuff and it can be a strain on me. Video games are the same like I do art, its fucking hard and it takes a lot on me to make it perfect and at it's max, if you think making a video game is easy or that it shouldn't be that hard, make a game yourself or work at company that makes games and see for yourself, because then you will understand.

We'll see more of this game, let them do what they need to do and we'll here more from not just Frontiers, also Origins and Prime, let us focus on the movie for next month and wait and see for what Sega will do next for the other upcoming stuff. You don't have to like Frontiers, its your call, just don't waste your time trying to prove a point on me, that's a waste right there.
That's all I have to say, I'm not expecting people to agree with me, but I'm expecting you to be mindful and responsible for what you're going to tell me because I can smell bullshit when someone is trying to tell me something. So again, I'm saying after all of this to agree and disagree with me, just be mindful what you're about to say so we can have a nice discussion, I want to keep it clean as possible without getting frustrated, thank you.

The anonymous even said with GTAV and RDR2 (Red Dead Redemption 2) are not very fun and nothing interesting, those two games are top tier like BOTW cucker. Someone else even said that the people at Sonic Team should be replaced and killed and be with spritely go-getters that are hungry to prove themselves.

Getting rid of the people who've been working with Sonic for about 30 years have been doing their best to carry this franchise to still be lit up in many of us and getting new people who don't know what they're doing isn't going to solve it. Someone even made of autistic people saying "autistic braindead children Sonic games." For starters, I'm autistic, I don't care if you make fun of me because of it, I'll very likely not care and not give a shit about you, but that alone can hurt others and I will not accept that, calling the developers of Frontiers retarded. Others are saying never believe in Iizuka when he's been working with Sonic for almost 30 years since Sonic 3 who loves this franchise, saying that the game is going to be a forgettable mediocre game, someone said he's not a fan of the open world games, and it can be from a different franchise too when Legends was about to come out, he complained about the graphics saying they are shitty, and the other person said he's tired 99% of the time for specific reasons, just don't play open world games. And then another person was so stupid as fuck about Sonic only being Mario's rival and Frontiers being a ripoff of BOTW. I don't really want to say the word but some are calling fans in terms of the gameplay fags, like Classicfags, Adventurefags, Boostfags, Boostcucks, etc. Someone even made fun of Even Stanley when she's a great artist and writer, she has done Ghost of the Future, her work in phenomenal. Another even said Sonic should kill himself, the game will sell like shit, saying Roger will be fired after Frontiers when that's not true, say the fandub actor is better (btw watch it if you haven't, its so funny.) Saying that the music will be forgettable when Jun Senoue is working on the games music which will be fucking awesome, someone even wanted a Sonic dating sims game, okay, that's cringe and weird, not a bad idea, but Sega will never let happen on their part. All this stuff I'm saying is from fans who can be toxic, negative, or not even part of Sonic.

Those who aren't excited are either diehard fans of Sonic or fans of nostalgia who only care about a certain formula like Classic, Adventure, or Boost that think open world is stupid for Sonic. Again, don't get the game, not that hard. I know about the track record of Sonic games in the past 10 years and I know only a few were able to be good enough like Colors, Generations, and Mania. I don't play a fool like I don't know when I do, but I still play those games that people don't like, and making fun of people who do play them shows that you don't support it, you have rights not liking a game but calling someone out who does like it is wrong, I still play Sonic Colors: Ultimate despite some quirks, I play it because I wanted this game to come on new hardware for years and I finally got it, it doesn't matter to me about the other stuff, I'll still play it, I do the same for Team Sonic Racing, Sonic Forces, or any other game, like I don't care, I just wanna have fun and you can't take away from someone who wants to have fun from a game that you may not like but someone else will. It's about being respectful and open minded about that stuff. I don't want people to think that I'm being toxic from all of this when I'm not, I had to deal with a few people who were just being stubborn, one person said that he respects fans who like a game that is not his interest but called Sega and the fans stupid for the fact Colors was getting ported, I got mad because he was a hypocrite, another fan who I didn't reply but have to screenshot of his message had nothing to do from what I posted last year and it was just childish behavior, and this person was about Smash and how I said I didn't agree over that Goku would never be in Smash but he got salty over it and called me retarded. That's another story. I'm not being overly positive or critically negative, I'm neither, I'm just a normal fan who loves a franchise but I fight back when I can't agree with something that is very very wrong. And those who say the game will fail and you've seen it on YouTube, they have their rights of sharing the opinions they have but not everyone understands how video games work.

Sonic Central leak has been coming out recently stating that we'll have another one on the 18th this month which is next week from now, let me say that I don't find it 100% real, because I remember that some leakers would say something that with a specific date and it can mostly be wrong, some have may been correct but we can't guarantee if that's the possibility of it coming next week, so we'll have to wait and see what happens and if nothing happens on the 18th? Oh well, you shouldn't always get your hopes up like that, take it with a grain of salt and remember that this is a 50/50, so the most likely case can be true or it can be fact. I never really even trust leaks until more information proves me that it can be legit and that I'll take it. I've seen some leaks in other stuff and I would have to be careful about and not raise my expectation about it. Because if its false, then that is on my call for believing in it so bare that in mind. I've already seen the information of what it was said but I'll wait on the 18th to see if it's real or not.

Future Game Show, I know it was just announced that the Spring Future Game Show will be coming around after my birthday on March 24th. I've read the article about it's return and how to watch it, how long it'll be, who will host it and stuff like that. Many have jump the gun of saying that Sonic Frontiers will be there because it mention "Sega" but I know damn well the case that there is no proof it being confirmed. What it said in the article was what was in the Game Show previously, "previously." That's what they said, so it's not confirmed that they'll be there, I've even done some research to see who will participate in that event and nothing has been said of how will be in it. Sega can be in it again, but it hasn't been said, so we have no idea right now if they are going to be there or not so let's see in the coming weeks after my birthday if they are going to be there and if they are, remember, they have other IPS than just Sonic even though he is the mascot of the company, you Atlus as well so that could happen too. For right now, be patient and see who will make an appearance and if Sega is not there, then that means they are saving up for a bigger event like E3, Summer Game Fest, and Gamescom. Those are coming as well. Just wait.

Gameplay will come, I know it will, but does it matter? Yes and no. Yes, because its big budget title game and fans need to know what to expect when the game draws near, we have to see to know what we will be once we get are hands on it, whether its small or large gameplay, we have something to look forward to. But also no, gameplay doesn't always matter, especially when it's not ready to be presented, does that mean they are confident? I don't know. Does it mean mean they are not ready? Pretty much. There are many reasons why we haven't seen it yet and if the rumor of another Sonic Central and Spring Future Game Show, they have rights not to show gameplay. They decide on how they are going to market the game. So if they decide to show gameplay after the movie, it can be after the movie, even when we get more updates in interviews. Gameplay doesn't make a game, it's more than that, there are other things that make the game every important to make it better. That gameplay will come, but I want to wait until they are ready, because if we got something that wasn't presentable, then the issue will happen, it happen with Halo Infinite, that's why the game got delayed to last year to fix and polish the game. Don't rush the process, trust the process. I know someone will say if there's not gameplay, you shouldn't be hype for it, that's for you to say but not for everyone else, we can be excited whether there is gameplay or not, if someone is excited, someone is excited, and that's fine. Like yeah, if something is not presentable to you that doesn't look promising, then that's fine, I know that you're not telling people what to do at that but to keep in mind that not everyone is going to agree with it and just be excited for something. It's better to have something than nothing to remind us something is coming.

I'll finally say that I pity the fans, overreacting to a lot of things, pressuring Sega and Sonic Team to release or talk about something, seeing if something related to Sonic Forces that will claim that the game is doomed. The game will not be doomed but they set themselves up thinking in terms of what's happening that game will be bad in terms of the model, the writer, the producer, no gameplay, etc. They'll only view it negatively and only see the faults and the reception from those dissatisfied once the game comes out this year. I'm not expecting everyone to love Frontiers but I want people to be smart and have some hope, because it never hurts to have hope even though yeah, the track record is not great, but I believe this game will make its mark, along with Sonic Origins too, those two games will be great. I know we were suppose to get news about it but I have heard that a delay has happen if I remember correctly but the game isn't canceled, we're getting that game, some thought that the game will come before the Sonic Movie 2 but it's coming out before Sonic Frontiers, we'll get news of that game too, but it's like with every game out there, we won't here stuff until its ready to be presented, and I bet they want to do more with Origins and we also have to consider that we are getting Sonic 3&K after all these years to the new hardware so it'll take time.

We have great people within Sonic who loves this franchise and that also goes for the community but we are only seen as toxic but that happens when things get out of hand with some fans and when Sega screws up. But overall, I hope still, I'm not giving up, nor you should tell me to, you can't stop my determination and faith for Sonic, he's not going away as people say he will. Not likely, no way, he'll still be big as years to come. If anything, take some time away from Sonic and focus on other stuff that you like or if you to do things in the real world, then do that, because that's what I do. I'll have my hope with me.

I wanted to get this off of my chest for a long time now and I'm just tired of fans not understanding how this stuff works in terms of video games, including Sonic, we all love video games but I feel like all the time no understands how much strain and stress developers have to go through for something like this for a high budget title and this isn't every year is a new Sonic game, no, this a game that will take a while to be made and that means like I said, it won't be talked about for a while, I've seen it, I know it because of the stuff I develop. How the fuck to do think I feel when I develop new sprites, drawings, sprite pictures and animations? It's hard work and no one seems to see it. I'm stressed out to make things that I want to make and present to others, it's not like I want to keep a high reputation but art is no joke, I have to work hard on this stuff and it can be a strain on me. Video games are the same like I do art, its fucking hard and it takes a lot on me to make it perfect and at it's max, if you think making a video game is easy or that it shouldn't be that hard, make a game yourself or work at company that makes games and see for yourself, because then you will understand.

We'll see more of this game, let them do what they need to do and we'll here more from not just Frontiers, also Origins and Prime, let us focus on the movie for next month and wait and see for what Sega will do next for the other upcoming stuff. You don't have to like Frontiers, its your call, just don't waste your time trying to prove a point on me, that's a waste right there.
That's all I have to say, I'm not expecting people to agree with me, but I'm expecting you to be mindful and responsible for what you're going to tell me because I can smell bullshit when someone is trying to tell me something. So again, I'm saying after all of this to agree and disagree with me, just be mindful what you're about to say so we can have a nice discussion, I want to keep it clean as possible without getting frustrated, thank you.
