@@SoniaSpectrum Sonic Forces is pretty garbage. The only good thing that Forces have is updated graphics. Also my point is that a speedrun is longer than a regular game. Believe it or not, but all the modern stages in forces is 15 minutes long! Kinda sad considering that Forces was originally $40!
@@OfficialDiffy I respect your opinion 100%, but for me, I took 4ish hours to beat Forces and about 8 hours for Unleashed. Considering inflation and the fact that Unleashed was 60 at launch, that actually makes sense. I really felt Forces at least tried to be a mini Unleashed with elements of Colors and Generations done better and worse, respectively, and while it is indeed sad that SEGA rushed this, I feel fans wouldn't be as sad if Mania was 40 bucks and Forces was 20.
@@SoniaSpectrum It took you 4 hours to complete Sonic Forces? How in the world did you complete Sonic Unleashed in 8 hours then? A single level in Unleashed is longer than all the modern Sonic levels combined! Sonic Unleashed is 3-5 times longer than Forces, you sure you didn’t complete Sonic Unleashed in 12 hours?
Tbh it was skill gap. I realize I may not have made a fair comparison, as Forces was my first 3D Sonic game while I had already become sufficiently skilled at Generations before getting the chance to play through the masterpiece that was Unleashed. The mechanics are basically the same with Unleashed having a much more expansive moveset than Generations, though less polished, so I found it much easier to play Unleashed than if it had been my first game. Also playing Rise of Lyric got me used to the general Werehog button mapping, as they're surprisingly similar in that sense. That's why I didn't really struggle that much. I just replaced Forces though and finished it in about an hour and a half, though I primarily attribute that to the fact that I played a ton of Forces before my latest playthrough and I only just started ramping up my Unleashed tech. Hope this helps!
This gets super interesting after 30 minutes, I’m glad I had it running in the background. Using combos for movement, skips, and out-of-bounds clips is super cool, plus whatever you’re doing at 37:00 to get more exp
I live for the moments during the nighttime levels when the jazz band keeps repeatedly popping in and aggressively playing the same little intro and nothing more
Fun fact: Sonic Unleashed is one of the longest Sonic games, with regular gameplay having a whopping 8-9 hours (when you count cutscenes) Also, good speedrun!
Never understand why people genuinely don't like this game, I have played it a lot on my ps2 in my childhood but never touched the ps3/xbox version, this looks absolutely incredible and fun to play, I like the idea of having powerups on the world lobby to use it to explore, I hope I can play this someday edit: I finally got to play this version of the game and I'm loving it! it's so much different from the PS2 ver, it's a totally new game! I've been having fun so far
@@Sydney_Angelyt Generations is another story for me, the first time I played, it was amazing but, after replaying it recently, I got a bit annoyed with the automatic sections in a few parts, it happened a few times when I was trying to go a little backward to get a red ring but even if I was pushing the joystick backward sonic was walking forward and the only way to get the ring was dying or restarting the stage, really bored me lol
@@Sydney_Angelyt werehog is subjective. If you actually take some time to learn the mechanics it’s actually VERY FAST PACED. A lot more than some gameplay will let you think. Plus you can skip alot of enemies in werehog
The fact that the fastest routes through most of the day stages is literally just following the set path, but doing everything as precisely as possible is so interesting to me. Obviously it's how the game was meant to be played, but it's just cool that boundary breaking is so sparse there.
Purely here because I would play this religiously and couldn’t beat it as a kid, you have given me (now 21) confidence to play through once more and conquer my old foe. Also gg’s on the speed run hehe.
great speedrun, took you a while to do that boost and pause thing in eggmanland tho. it may have cost you a bit but its still WAY better than i could do. it took me a year to beat the game and you beat it in 2 hours XD.
I had the game and then lost it after it was confiscated. Jump forward a few years later I bought it again for Xbox one and only recently beat it for the first time

They haven't survived. Lots, and I mean, LOTS of people (humans) die in the events of Sonic.

When you beat the whole game in two hours while players are stuck on eggmanland for hours

but very good effort keep it up ^-^
