Obvious dumb joke aside, I was expecting more from all the hype Sega was building up for this panel at SXSW. They've been saying for months they were gonna have some big reveals for both games, and we get 40 seconds showing Flying Battery zone and 40 seconds of the most barebones gameplay for Sonic Forces.
Now, I am excited to play Flying Battery again, and Sonic Forces certainly LOOKS gorgeous, but I was really expecting more; like what this 3rd character is or what this new gameplay mechanic is. To only give us 40 seconds of "boost-to-win" gameplay is quite the cocktease. I'm still excited for Sonic Mania, and hopefully Sonic Forces will play as good as it looks, but I don't wanna get my hopes up at this point. They've got plenty of time to work on it though, so fingers crossed.
So what did you guys think of what Sega had to show?
Also stream tonight, probly in a few hours from now. I'll make a post when I go online. Hopefully my internet can handle more than a few hours this week.

idk like I want something that's a balance between fast gameplay and good 3d platforming kinda like heroes did but more refined.
Also kinda annoyed that wisps are back again for no reason. :/
No different from Batman or Nathan Drake climbing up walls, solving riddles and fighting bad guys.
In some cases it can work but I'm not too sure with sonic.
IE Batman gets a new gadget or suit upgrade for combat.
Nathan Drake gets a rope to lasso onto cliffs and beams to scale obstacles and also uses new guns.
These series are still super fun and popular because of new threats and antagonists to fight and new stories to learn and watch.
Sonic is pretty much the same way: he still runs through cities and smashes robots, the only things that change are new villains, allies and a brand new story to enjoy. If games that are similar are still popular ad Sonic's been around much longer than them, why is he recieving fan hatred?
For sonic force one of my biggest gripes isn't what was announced now infact it was with the first trailer and that's classic sonic,like why the hell does he have to be there? give me one of sonics friends or something not yet another sonic that only serves as an excuse for "classic" gamplay. Honestly if that atleast werent part of the game I'd atleast be mildly excited.
Also wisps...uuuurrrrrgghhhhh
I'm still as hyped as ever. :)
Meh/= Won't get my hopes up either
Plus, the main theme is freakin' awesome, but that's to be expected even from the bad Sonic games.
Watched the trailer and it looks pretty awesome! Can't wait to see new characters (and the artwork they'll spawn) and the new story Sonic will explore with his companions and what new coal in will present themselves.
