Ok. This was a veryโฆweird game. It had a lot of potential, but it wasnโt that good. Gameplay is great. Classic Sonic levels feel like the classic games, and modern Sonic reminds me of Colors and Generations. But the story, it sucks. We have this huge war, and Sonic gets defeated, so that you can make a Sonic OC. One of the most frowned upon parts of media (other than FNaF porn and FNF bs). They literally just wanted to make money off the fact that Sonic isnโt as good as he used to be, so they brought back Classic Sonic (which only existed in the first place so they could celebrate Sonicโs birthday). TLDR, the story sucks. It was one of those be creative and work together things. And donโt even get me started on the soundtrack. Overall, itโs ok. Get it if you liked Colors, but if you want a memorable Sonic experience, donโt get Forces.
Edit: Okay, the soundtrack really isnโt that bad (sometimes). It has itโs really good moments, even though they were trying so annoyingly hard to make it sound like a Genesis game (again bc Sonic isnโt that good anymore), but then sometimes itโs just awful and makes me want to stop playing so that I can stop listening to that din.
