you can skip this part if you went... I'm talking about what I'm going to do... go down a little to the bold letters for the review if you want...
I've been gone basically for 2 months... except that last post... it feels weird not doing anything for that long here... I hope I get used to it again... I got a lot of notifications to look at... I'm going to look at all the people I'm following instead of following section until I look at them all. I think this is easier because of how much I have to look at... if I'm looking in the following section, the app could crash or something and I would have to scroll all the way down there which would take me more time... and with two months worth... I'm not doing that... it's safer the other way... and I can take breaks too... I just have to remember who I was on last... i could also unfollow some people if I'm not interested in them anymore. if I'm following you, expect a bunch of likes on your posts from 2 months when I get to you. (if i actually like them though... I don't just give them to any post.) I'm worried that things won't be the same... stupid electricity and Internet turning off... i keep getting scared... and that's way I take a long time to post something sometimes... and that's why I don't take breaks...

*the game review part*
about a 14 minutes read
I said this part in the last post but I edited it a bit for here. when the electricity and Wi-Fi turned back on(,?) I wanted to finish cleaning my room and start playing & finish Sonic X Shadow Generations before everything came back to normal... it came out when everything was off... I never played the original Sonic Generations before... so this remaster was my first time... and then I played the Shadow part after Sonic's, which is new content and not a remaster. it's like a new game. it's added content for the remaster, like Bowser's fury in Super Mario 3D World on the Nintendo Switch. like exactly... it has the water surf, some ink looking stuff, and it's open. also the way you selected the games are the same... i beat it 100%! I did everything in this game! I did all achievements too. I believe that games should be 100%ed. why you paying all that money for the game if you're not gonna finish everything...? i guess if you don't like it, you don't have to do it... only if you like it. I don't like when people only play for the story... games are supposed to be about gameplay... not the story...
ok, first thing I want to say... I don't like the drop dash for Modern Sonic... I keep accidentally doing it...! some reason it just activates without me holding it sometimes... I just tap it...! why is their no option to remove it...!? you can remove Classic Sonic's drop dash... it should be the other way around!
the control's fell great! it's a 3d game half the time and I've been using the d-pad most of the game! except Shadow Generations... you can't use the d-pad for some reason... I'm disappointed... the game fells so precise, or maybe I haven't played a nice controlling Sonic in the air In a while... best control's from a Sonic game in a while... I used the analog stick a little bit, but I prefer the d-pad for this game. was it just me or does Shadow feel slow? his start up speed took a little bit to gain full speed... acceleration... I think... also the graphics looks good. Sonic doing better!
Classic Sonic's Planet Wisps level wasn't good... I did not like using the Red Wisps... you can only spindash once, and you have to jump if you want to spincharge again... and the controls for it feel off, especially when going on a corner... it feels slow... why is the stage so long? Modern Sonic's too... it took me 8 minutes the first time... I played Sonic Colors recently, this is not the same stage as Colors... the Colors one was better... Colours?
the story for Sonic Generations is eh... they changed most of the dialogue a bit. I did not like some changes... a lot of them were fine changes though. for some reason they redid all the voice acting. some acting was off... Charmy sounds too much like Tails now... i don't like Creams voice... Rouge? hm... and some actors are different... like Blaze, Knuckles, and Espio. Classic Eggman (Robotnik) sounds exactly just like Modern Eggman now... in the original Sonic Generations, Classic Eggman sounded more calm, but now he doesn't... I don't like this change of duologue in the final boss cutscene. C. Eggman says after M. Eggman laughs crazily, "and they call me eccentric..." that is you... in the future... they still call you eccentric then... before was, "am I really gonna get that crazy?" that's a lot better. why'd they change that? also why doesn't Classic Sonic talk, even though Classic Tails and Classic Eggman do? C. Tails and C. Eggman were the same as their modern actors. why didn't they do the same with Sonic? I heard that they were trying to get Julio White to play as Classic Sonic before... k, why? is it because he voiced Sonic in the old cartoons?
they redid some animations, but didn't for one part. now it looks like Classic Sonic ate the whole Angel Island... in the first cutscene, they changed how Amy interacts with Sonic. before Amy was getting pushed by Sonic with his hand in her face, but now Amy is trying to give Sonic cupcakes. in the next scene the cupcakes disappeared... I did not like the change, but the last one was a little weird... I think they should remove the cupcakes and just have Amy stare at Sonic. I think that's a lot better! another animation change with Amy was the end where Amy pushes Knuckles out the way when he said something. Knuckles gets blasted away into a tree. it was funny. but now it doesn't even do anything... Amy just slightly pushed Knuckles away now... I wished they kept it because it shows how strong Amy is and how devoted to Sonic she is. it was funny too. why would they change that?
the final boss was boring and confusing... but easy... it felt so slow... why didn't they change that? and the no hit in Sonic Generations' final boss achievement was a little confusing... Super Sonic is invincible. did me hitting some debris count as getting hit? that's how you spell debry? the s is silent?
getting hit takes forever for Sonic to get up... I'm glad the sure-footed skill exist... why'd they make him get up so long...? Shadow does that too... the athleticism skill for Classic Sonic is good. it makes him faster underwater. his jumps underwater without the skill felt so slow... Sonic's acceleration feels slow... but there is an acceleration skill that fixes that, but there is not one for Classic Sonic... just modern Sonic... Shadow doesn't get skills... so it feels slow... the worst part is that you can't use the skills in the extra missions... it's only the main stages... why? why'd they make so many different Chao and with different animations...? pretty suspicious...
Shadow Generations was so good! the story was pretty good, but I do wish they explained about some levels being there. some levels Shadow hasn't seen yet at this time, but have afterwards in the timeline. the new moveset was cool! I can't believe he turned into Venom for one new ability! (joking... it just looks like it to me... what's that icky paint like goo? it's moving!) I was disappointed in some things... collecting all the bolts was disappointing... some of them were hard to find... it took me hours just looking for a few... I can't believe I missed some easy ones... I thought since Sonic Generations had skills, then Shadow Generations would have them too... but they didn't... the animations were good too.
Tarios was disappointing... he just looks like buff Sonic with Knuckles' quills... the art of him looks better... Tarios' animation was Shadow's, so it looked weird... he doesn't have the same shoes as Shadow, so that's why... Mephiles' (meh-full-lis) voice wasn't that intimidating enough... why'd he scream like that...? I like the original actor that played him in 06... for some reason, when Shadow saw Sonic, Sonic had smaller quills... why is his quills so inconsistent...? just keep them long just like all the promotional stuff... everywhere but the main 3d Sonic games are longer... Forces and after they got shorter... the cgi cutscenes and 2d art work, they are longer... why do you do that? also for some reason Classic Sonic's quills are a little longer in Sonic Generations... don't know why they did that... but it didn't really change anything... when you see the back of Modern Sonic's head where his neck would be if he had one with the small quills, it looks like his head is not attached properly... it doesn't look right...
why is Chaos Island from Sonic Frontiers here? Shadow wasn't even there... I guess he's going there in the future I geuss... I think they said they reused assets because they were running out of time... and that's why the Metal Sonic boss had Chemical Plant recolored... where's the Shadow The Hedgehog 05 stage at? ran out of time I guess... maybe Chaos Island is here because of Sonic? like how in the 3ds they had Radical Highway and the Biolizard fight even though those were Shadow's things... Black Doom loves Radical Highway in Shadow Generations!
I'm tired of hearing the All hail Shadow song from Shadow The Hedgehog 05... this is like the third time it's shown up I think... make a new song!
fake Chaos Emerald spoiler
when Sonic beat Shadow, he reveals that Sonic took the fake Chaos Emerald Tails made in Sonic Adventure 2. I thought that was cool when he revealed it. Shadow still needed the Chaos Emerald... but now that I think of it... the fake Chaos Emerald has the same wavelength and properties, but not as powerful. Shadow could've used that one still. it still does what a normal emerald does, because in Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic used Chaos Control with it... also, in Sonic Battle, Shadow says he doesn't need the Chaos Emeralds anymore because he has the power of Maria now... I guess they forgot about that... but maybe he just needed more power, so he needed the real one for Shadow Generations... and that's why they did that... but to be honest it was pretty clever. there was no way they thought of that when Sonic Generations first released. it was just a coincidence that Shadow had the same colored emerald as the fake one. how lucky! how did Rouge switch them back so easily? Sonic doesn't have pockets...
I can't wait for the Sonic Movie 3 DLC! (and movie) the model looks nice and the jump looks cool. I just don't like the extra spine... quill?
I give Sonic X Shadow Generations a 8 out of 10!
I'm glad Sonic games are becoming better again. I hope the next game's good...
I still want new actors...
the Shadow Dark beginnings animation was so good!
here's the animation, please watch it if you haven't!
https://youtu.be/8ZK8bse3Quo?s
for some reason they changed why Shadow was at the Ark in the game. in the animation, Shadow thinks something might be there, but in the game, Shadow says that G.U.N. found some bio signatures, I think... why'd they do that?
here's the extra scene too that was exclusive only on the PS5 for some reason. watch that too after the first one! people were just going to reupload it anyways, I think that was stupid...
https://youtu.be/w0TQNGN_eM4?si
I feel like this extra scene takes place after the game.
I feel like Shadow... but I wish I had someone like that in my life... I hope they survive longer then that... and that song at the end... man...
if I missed something, tell me. I'll say it replying to your comment.
