Sonic Forces’ Custom Hero mode might not be the wish fulfillment you want

For many fans, the big sell of Sonic Forces is that you can create your own original, playable character. But don’t read too much into this — Custom Hero mode isn’t exactly an in-depth, fan art-inspired mode so much as one using parts from the existing Sonic Forces universe, according to the game’s developers.

When I criticized it a while ago someone on here cried saying the sonic fanbase is horrible. Ironically, I loved every sonic game within 10 years on ps, and that includes sonic 4 part 1 and 2

I played Forces at EGX, i'm not sure how old the build was, but the custom character played like crap. Awful level design with bottomless pits and insta-kill quicksand. Sloppy deceleration that was causing people to run off edges after landing jumps... it was just a mess. Really hope they fix it.

Good. Something not boring, not one of those "make your own game" crap and also on Steam would be nice.

If you're getting funding from a group that needs two different ways of Acronyming itself, things will not go the way you want them to.

If it was more online-only crap then good riddance.

Outriders was crap. They slapped that game together and threw in a loot system to get players' attention. This game was absolutely jank and the always online nonsense made it stutter like crazy. People Can't Optimize.

I liked Outriders but I could see where the artistic vision was compromised. The way the industry is now, it wouldn't surprise me that upper management would scrap something that didn't pull in money via gaas, mts, or other means.

Escape from Tarkov Unheard Edition Reneges on Promised Content Behind $250 Price Tag

The new Escape from Tarkov Unheard Edition has the community in an outrage after promising exclusive access to the new PvE mode for $250 USD.

$250? Do they not know all the other games that already exist or will be made in the future that can do similar?

SimpleDad18h ago(Edited 18h ago)

This is for the hardcore people that have 2500 h in the game. They basically play that one game the whole year.
Oh and those same people are mad as hell at this... what a way to reward fans of your game and annihilate newcomers.

Read a comment earlier calling it a "special monetization operation." I had to chuckle at that.
