I'm actually 100% okay with it. I just think it's incredibly sloppy of them to keep padding it out with non-boost Classic Sonic.
I mean, isn't that standard procedure for a lot of modern games, especially games aimed at children? I mean, maybe it's just me, but I know I'm not the target audience for this game and that's fine with me. There are other games in the world that ARE targeting me. Sonic was targeting me in my youth, and despite their seemingly desperate attempts to appeal to me with classic visual designs, I know that the new games are strictly aimed at younger children and I should look elsewhere despite my nostalgia for the franchise.
I can relate with this gripe, but the situation here seems to be a bit different as the characters in Forces don't actually tell you, the player, what to do. Instead, they show up and tell Sonic what to do. So far it all seems to just be world building as opposed to hand holding.Oh, I think there's nothing wrong at all with the boost gameplay. But the videos of the very first level give away what this game is... you having Sonic's Shitty FriendsTM talk to you every 8 seconds telling you to watch out, when to jump, where a powerup is... it's like Megaman X5's Alia on steroids.
I honestly think Forces is just suffering from bad timing. If Sonic Team had expected Sonic Mania while Forces was in development, they would have removed classic Sonic entirely and just focused on Modern and the new kid on the block. At least then it would have been clear what the game is being marketed to. The classic sections are ultimately going to clash with the rest of the game's focus and end up feeling like a knockoff of Mania's gameplay. Sales-wise, I'm partly expecting Mania to kick Forces' ass.
Having Classic Sonic in this game almost feels like a panic button incase the Modern and OC Fan Character gameplay doesn't live up to standards.
