>>28292 Project 06 is definitely better that regular 06, in fact it plays nothing like 06 and is an easy install

>>28739 I want more human NPCs like Unleashed's

>>28201 It was great, first Sonic game I ever played in 4K 60fps. The game is beautiful and the day stages make me wish we got more AAA Sonic games. Of course the game is not without its flaws, the Werehog is as bad as everyone said it was, some of the hubworlds are smaller than I would've liked and Sonic isn't as "cool" as he was in prior games (it's the first meta era game in a lot of ways), but all of this is overshadowed by how good the daytime gameplay is and how graphically impressive it is. I really hope 06, Sega Superstars Tennis and Free Riders all get recomped as well, it would be nice to play those games with the benefits of modern hardware and modding.

>>30522 The Werehog is GOOD though!

>>30536 I'll concede that there are a few decent levels, but 90% of the night stages are slow and tedious slogs with clunky platforming thrown in.

I should get back to playing Unleashed, the Internet stuff this whole month seriously distracted me

>casuals: "Eggmanland is the hardest stage ever!!!!" >people who are actually trying to get good S Rank times: pic related

>>31795 still have yet to s rank this one desu

I've been putting off Eggmanland forever and really want to get it over with, but I just can't find the time.

>>32361 Is that because it's a long stage? I feel like Unleashed is a time consuming game in general (and I'm not complaining, I feel that's how main series games should be, Forces feels more like a spinoff)

>>31795 I've S ranked all of the main game stages, including eggmanland, how insane are the dlc missions?

>>32423 I haven't tried S ranking most stages yet but I casually played the DLC stages as well and some are even hard to just complete normally

>>32366 >Is that because it's a long stage? Yes. After Arid Sands Night ate up an hour of my time, I'm not doing anything Werehog heavy until I know I have a lot of time on my hands. I'm fine with Unleashed being time consuming, I just have problems with how it uses that time sometimes.

>>32366 Unleashed is only time consuming because of the medal collecting and the werehog desu, without it it'll be 2 hours. >>32423 They are like harder versions of the extra acts, either tougher gimmick stages or short platforming challenges. or they just take the original stage they are based on and fill it with spikes and enemies, those kinda suck desu.

>>32792 On top of the medals, I enjoy the hubs and NPCs, and S ranks are hard, that's time consuming and I don't mind

I should continue my Unleashed playthrough. Because of this I basically halted it for a month

>>32423 Much harder than the base game but also the S Rank requirements are lower.

>>28201 I genuinely think it's perfect. Playing Unleashed again but with Silky 60 fps, no frame drops is a blessing. I was a little scared going back into it I wanted to use 0 enhancements mods to see if it was as good as I remembered it, and it shockingly still holds up really well. All the day stages feel very meaty, you are constantly reacting to obstacles trying to keep the pace going rarely stopping. Night stages aren't half bad ether, I get why some people wouldn't like them it's a bit of an acquired taste, but I think the Werehog is pretty well designed making it inoffensive at least, I also love finding skips in Night stages like Savanna citadel you don't actually have to push all the blocks you can use your shohogken into the flying punch to just barely squeak up the platforms, along with the Werehog having a pretty good flow state while platforming, you can climb up the inside of the clock tower in one smooth motion without stopping at all, and it feels great to speed blitz these stages. Tip, hold the grab button to auto latch on better than mashing to grab, couple this with holding jump and you'll instantly fire up the ledge, much faster than climbing up the ledge normally. Medals were a big concern but even those weren't that bad, I did a bunch of side missions, and giving Prof. souvenirs, I found myself casually having more than enough medals, to the point I actually ignored them in the later half. Most of the bosses were ether fun, or just okay at worst, except Dark Gia who I think flounders a bit in the colossus segments just enough for me to say it's on the bad side. The story feels really cozy, I really like the little hub worlds, the game really goes all out on making you feel like your traveling the world. It's not a flawless game, it really could have explained itself better, like the drift is so weird in this game, and the fact that the loading screen that shows you the controls doesn't included it will never not baffle me, and even worse the stages will show you button prompts for rail switching but never Drifting, the Drift ends up feeling like an easter egg if you never played Act 2. Quick tip, if you want a tighter drift, turn the opposite direction first then pull back in and Drift. It's not bad once you've tamed that beast, but very poorly communicated. Fun fact: you can drift by turning and pressing B(Slide/Stomp button) After completing everything I'd have to say it's in my Top Five.

>>36993 >the fact that the loading screen that shows you the controls doesn't included it will never not baffle me I didn't know this. Recently I also learned that they apparently changed the mapping for the drift shortly before release. I was confused when playing because the in-game tutorial says you need to press B to drift

>>36993 >>37042 (Me) >Fun fact: you can drift by turning and pressing B(Slide/Stomp button) Wait hold on a moment, so that actually still works in the released game then? I tried to drift with B, but I couldn't get it to work

>>37043 It does work, when I did the final Gaia Temple run, instead of sliding under the last tentacle I'd drift into it.

>>37254 Interesting, maybe I'll experiment with it more, when I start playing again. It's been almost two months since I stopped playing

I finally beat Eggmanland, it took Dozens of lives and over an hour, but I did it.

>>37871 Good job

On a whim I decided to play a bit of UnWiished after playing the Unleashed Recomp and the difference in graphical quality was really jarring.

>>38457 What about not being able to stop boosting once you start?

>>38473 I was able to adjust to that by just not boosting unless I know there's a lot of room ahead of me. I recall hearing that there is a way to stop boosting, but I can't figure it out. In fact the gameplay isn't that bad, it's just how bad the graphics are in comparison to the Recomp (and even in comparison to other Wii games like Secret Rings) that just constantly enforces the fact that I'm playing the worse version of a good game.

>>28204 It's happening https://github.com/ga2mer/MarathonRecomp

>>38457 >>41194 I've never played UnWiished, but I heard that the Werehog stages are actually better in it. How would you say they compare?

>>41202 I've only played a couple of them so far and the main difference is that the combat seems easier and it seems like there's a lot less platforming. So yes, somewhat better so far, but only because it's easier. The lack of medals to hunt for also makes it a lot better.

>>41204 That doesn't sound good to me. The platforming is my favorite part

>>41204 I think my biggest issue was just how ungodly long some of the Werehog stages go on for. If they're shorter in UnWiished, that's an upgrade to me.

>>41205 I've only played the first two Werehog stages so far, so the later ones could be completely different from what I experienced. >>41206 It seemed like the stages were shorter in the small amount I played, so hopefully they stay like that.

I tried a mod

Finally stopped procrastinating and beat the final boss of Unleashed. >Egg Dragoon was easy >Dark Gaia was hard, Gaia Colossus' attacks didn't always connect and its movement was a tad clunky. The Sonic segments were fun, but the time limit and instakill lasers on the third one made it absurdly hard, probably the hardest thing in the entire fight. >Perfect Dark Gaia was pretty easy, but it took an embarassingly high number of attempts. >The QTEs at the end were total bullshit, I died like five times because I couldn't press the square button 60 times in a second. Overall I didn't really enjoy the fight that much and when I beat it I was more glad that it was over than excited that I beat it.
