It kinda does, but it's different from the rest

#

And also it mostly has a bad reputation

#

The old collection games would never

#

Why are the ears so tiny

#

Oh my god, I'm now seeing the definitive edition falsehood that happened.
That shit is HILARIOUS

strange estuary
#

Why can Davih just make up stuff and have people randomly believe it

mossy pine
#

Davih should make a skylanders 7 leak for me to cope over

cunning echo
#

Is just that the nintendo everyting post caught everyone by surprise lmao

mossy pine
#

i wont complain

@mossy pine has earned the Sonic Maniac role!

It’ll be June….

I'm personally fine with the countdown

#

the first dawn of June is almost here...

grand cobalt
#

what if nothing happens in june?

lavish iron
#

Wait till JUNE

ember junco
#

Nah worse id argue

#

Let’s wait a whole ass decade for a new game

ember junco
#

Nah if I had to wait 9 years for a new 3D Sonic

#

Yeah nah that’s ggs

#

Just kill me atp

lavish iron
#

More Polish and content

I kinda doubt it’s soon tho no?

#

billbil-kun just leaked fronteirs definitive edition omg

#

releasing june 23rd for 50$

wheat kindle
#

50 as it was first leaked

#

damn it's just an empty edition that is even cheaper?

#

Sonic Frontiers Minus...

mossy pine
#

Guess we can consider this more like a Game of the Year edition or somethin

wheat kindle
#

Okay yeah the price drop suggests that it's basically a 10 dollar upgrade, and that it's coming to other platforms besides Switch 2

#

otherwise it would not be cheaper on Steam

silent haven
#

who is this and how are they not aware that we've had a price in euros since the listing last month vecort

wheat kindle
#

it's usually the same, so...

cunning echo
#

Mmmm

#

Damn

#

What if it's all just a port 😭

raw osprey
#

hmmmmmmmm wonder who was saying from the start its just gonna be a switch 2 port

cunning echo
#

10 bucks for Ray tracing

cunning echo
#

If anything, we mostly commented on stuff we'd like to see (no pop in)

wheat kindle
#

it's 40 -> 50 now

#

I think they did this before too, Sonic Origins before plus used to cost 40

#

then the og version was reduced to 30

cunning echo
#

Bros...

#

Frontir 2 might be this year....

stiff salmon
#

hell naw

#

2027

coarse ferry
#

Nah 2027 for sure

wheat kindle
#

2027 is the announcement

#

2029 is the release

#

just in time for Mario movie 3

round trout
raw osprey
#

famous leaker who leaks ps plus games and release dates for other games

#

he leaked shadow gens release date 2 years ago

oblique plank
#

So the price drop for frontiers on steam does mean that the definitive edition is coming to other platforms

#

Right?

#

Why else would frontiers DE on switch 2 be less than base price Frontiers on launch

untold kayak
#

Weren't other libraries worked on Steam too or something?

oblique plank
#

Iirc something about a bundle including the digital deluxe/preorder stuff

stiff salmon
#

yeah they were

oblique plank
#

There has to be something more to this

#

Switch 2 frontiers being less than any other platform seems odd

#

Hell less than Frontiers on switch currently

#

Do people get 10 dollars back when upgrading or what

mossy pine
oblique plank
#

And even if it’s just a switch 2 port I could understand if the steam price was also 50 bucks
But it’s 40

#

Unless DE includes the digital deluxe stuff

dawn pumice
oblique plank
pulsar horizon
#

It seems to be cutting it close with a DE being announced a few weeks before release imo

oblique plank
#

And there’s also the fact that it’s releasing on Sonic’s bday

#

Idk the birthday game just being a switch 2 port sounds not ideal

pulsar horizon
#

Ok but like… do you want a buggy version on the switch 2

#

The console can’t handle Frontiers as is

#

Plus those who missed out on Frontiers can get the latest version and play that til Frontiers 2 releases next year

mossy pine
#

im just keeping it simple, no pop in, im all in

oblique plank
#

Idk it just seems odd that the definitive edition of Frontiers is only 50 bucks, comes out on Sonic’s birthday and only releases on Switch 2

dawn pumice
#

I’m still betting on being a switch 2 exclusive as my most minimum prediction

pulsar horizon
mossy pine
#

If they are gonna release something else major in the year, it would be near the holidays i guess

#

for sales reasons

dawn pumice
#

I still think it’ll be either a spinoff or a 2D game

pulsar horizon
#

Shoot I haven’t finished the switch version cause of how badly it ran

mossy pine
#

damn

#

I beat it on Xbox and Steam

pulsar horizon
#

I buy two copies of each game

#

One for my switch and one for my ps5

#

Switch just because I can have them on the go

round trout
dawn pumice
#

Mmmmm imma blame the console @round trout

oblique plank
#

The switch version of frontiers was really tied down so it could run on switch

round trout
oblique plank
#

I have no doubt the ps5/xbox version of frontiers can run on the switch 2 because of the upgrades it has

dawn pumice
#

O

oblique plank
#

It doesn’t make sense to me

#

They could’ve easily had it be the same price

#

And then there’s that godforsaken unannounced unexpected price drop for frontiers on Steam

dawn pumice
#

Honestly

#

It could be a pop in fix, 3 new cyberspace levels and a shadow reskin

grand cobalt
#

hey so like

dawn pumice
#

That’s prob worth the 10 dollar upgrade

grand cobalt
#

isn’t this all stuff we already know !

round trout
#

Kinda

oblique plank

#

We could kinda guess it was gonna happen though

#

I’m honestly surprised it’s even below 60

#

Guess SEGA learned from pricing Crossworlds at fucking 70

#

dude nobody invited

#

why si it that surprising shadow gens was 50vecort

grand cobalt

#

We need Sonic Unleashed on modern consoles next frfr

Oh yeah

The mattress sale day

wise chasm
pulsar horizon
#

I’m fine with it as long as I can just pay for an upgrade

#

If I have to buy it again imma end up with 3 copies of Frontiers lol

grand cobalt
#

So like

#

why is it

#

10 dollars cheaper than the switch 1 version though 😭

#

or am i missing something

oblique plank
#

Yeah that’s my question

#

You’d think it’d be 10 dollars more so it could be seen as an upgrade

#

But it’s less

#

What

#

And then there’s the whole steam situation

#

At least for Superstar’s price decrease it was announced

#

Here it just happened

#

No warning

grand cobalt
#

has bilibili ever gotten details wrong on things they leak

smoky summit

Never

then I hope the best for switch 1 frontiers owners vectorRunners

henry survived frontiers 1 on switch and loves it, bro will be fine

wheat kindle

#

Meh i just want new content to tall about

mossy pine
#

see, he'll be fine

wheat kindle
#

I'm assuming DE is the only "game" we are getting this year

mossy pine
#

Ideally, what would you want for new content

wheat kindle
#

CW season 2 might be a thing but yeah... not much

fossil echo
still epoch
#

Id frontiers to be prettier and more polished

mossy pine
dawn pumice
#

Ideally I just want it to be a bit more polished + the other characters on islands

wise chasm
dawn pumice
#

I’ll be happy to give them a 5-10 dollar upgrade price for that

mossy pine
wise chasm
#

But also doesn't really matter when you can usually buy it for a tenner

oblique plank
#

new mode-

#

im kidding

wheat kindle
#

make the Final Horizon not a messy side campaign available through a hidden ring on an island...

oblique plank
#

just make the islands more visually appealing

#

change up the textures a bit

#

something similar to how it looks in Crossworlds

#

especially lighting wise

mossy pine
#

Id like a better ui honestly

glossy sphinx

untold kayak
#

just span at the beginning of Ouranos

dawn pumice
#

Isn’t it right behind u 😭

#

And it’s a big ass ring

untold kayak
#

then turn right

#

that's about it

mossy pine
#

I guess he also means just

#

Integrating it into the main story

#

And not some weird secondary save file

raw osprey
mossy pine
#

Like i get the concern

raw osprey
#

but hoenstly i think we need to understand that frontiers is always gonan be messy

mossy pine
#

Final Horizon felt... disconnected

raw osprey
#

this word is in thsi games nda

mossy pine
#

I mean yeah of course it is, its add on content

#

But i get the desire for it to feel like a part of the main package as if it was always there

dawn pumice
#

But then you’ll run into the problem of 2 different endings

still epoch
#

Final Horizon to me feels like

#

The most unacceptable thing in sonics history

fossil echo
still epoch
#

Making 06 look extremely polished

#

But also

#

It was free

dawn pumice
still epoch
#

So it had that leniency to it

dawn pumice
#

They legit didn’t have time for the final boss so they included it in a free update a year later

mossy pine
#

Ooooohhh spicy take henry

still epoch
#

But still, it made Rise of Lyric look competent

modest parcel
#

Frontiers 2 with Final Horizon execution (it takes 3 more years in delays)

dawn pumice
#

But it genuinely felt they had no idea and just shoved the Galaga mini game as the last resort

still epoch
#

Its not really spicy when you remember the start of the 2nd phase of the final boss, the camera locks in to super sonics back and doesnt leave

#

And they did not fix that

#

At all

dawn pumice
#

Oh that too I forgot

#

It was extremely buggy

oblique plank
#

I think they were trying to do a cinematic shot but because of Frontiers' camera system it did not work at all in the way they wanted

still epoch
#

That is legitimately something I was the only one who talked about it and i have to be honest

mossy pine
#

I meant the comparison to other games but ye i totally get you

still epoch
#

What the fuck was yalls problem

#

Why nobody talked about that

dawn pumice
#

It was dope ngl

mossy pine
#

I never experienced that issue but the difficulty was SO bad

dawn pumice
#

It had me ascending

still epoch
#

Hype and aura moments convering ip the unnacceptableness of super sonic covering the whole screen

dawn pumice
#

But there’s one thing I hope they address as I was thinking about this boss

#

God they gotta rebalance the moves

mossy pine
#

For me i was also just bummed about the story

still epoch
#

The story sucked ass

mossy pine
#

Nothing really felt further fleshed out

still epoch
#

I just default to the original

mossy pine
#

Amy, Knuckles and Tails dont provide any interesting new perspectives

#

Especially knuckles

dawn pumice
#

I remember beating the final boss within like 2 mins cuz of that stupid ass sonic wind ability and mid-input canceling

oblique plank
#

I think the main problem with the last island is that there's barely any cutscenes while exploring

mossy pine
#

I never played Final Horizon after that big patch, so i wonder if any of it got better

mossy pine
#

Its just

#

Get the emeralds again

#

But there isnt a lot to make you feel like

#

THIS is it

oblique plank
#

its just

#

get the emeralds

mossy pine
#

explain what zap means

oblique plank
#

I get that Final Horizons tried to do that with Sonic and Master King Koco and it just added a lot of other questions like who the fuck was this guy

dawn pumice
#

Also I felt like

oblique plank
#

The scenes of sonic's friends experiencing the pain Sonic felt was cool though I wil admit

dawn pumice
#

Everyone was tired af in final horizons

oblique plank
ember junco
#

Is the leak today just more nothing burger vague posting?

dawn pumice
#

Like they didn’t want to be in that recording studio

dawn pumice
mossy pine
#

What do we think of Mike Pollock's performance nowadays

dawn pumice
#

We now know the date is June 23rd

oblique plank
dawn pumice
mossy pine
#

did it felt nuanced and subtle, or just tired and unfeeling

oblique plank
#

Mike is touchy

ember junco
dawn pumice
#

I felt like a good chunk of frontiers was more nunanced

oblique plank
#

when Frontiers initially released and I had a different opinion on him I thought he did great

dawn pumice
#

But god there’s times where he didn’t want to be there

dawn pumice
oblique plank
dawn pumice
#

But switch 2 is the one they heard

oblique plank
#

and them exploring Ivo's relationship with Maria was really nice

dawn pumice
#

But

#

I love eggman being bombastic

#

He was just….

#

So introverted 😭

#

He was calm for prob the entire game

oblique plank
#

yeah he felt a bit too quiet

#

Eggman is loud

#

he wants to annoy Sonic

#

as much as he wants to get things done

#

but in Frontiers I get that he was trapped in cyberspace for most of the time and he had Sage to keep him company

#

but idk

ember junco
oblique plank
#

I feel like if they had more interactive scenes of Eggman and Sage interacting in cyberspace it could've solved the problem of how absent he was in the story

#

like maybe show him discovering the ancients' story and technological advances during his time in cyberspace

mossy pine
#

I like Knuckles' performance.

Its really the one that I think allowed us to accept Dave as the current Knuckles after losing Travis

oblique plank
#

yeah Knuckles in Frontiers was amazing

#

especially in the prologue

mossy pine
#

Oh for sure

dawn pumice
#

Ya Dave did an incredible job

#

Especially from his last performances

oblique plank
#

2022 really felt like knuckles' year with the movie and this

mossy pine
#

Colleen is Colleen

#

Shes always doing a good job

dawn pumice
#

That was like

oblique plank
#

yeah she's still pretty much the same
which is good because she's always great

dawn pumice
#

Almost near Scott levels of knuckles

mossy pine
#

then we have the case of cindyyyyy

oblique plank
#

because

#

holy shit

#

I didn't think SEGA even allowed this type of voice direction anymore

mossy pine
#

Oh rouge in case files blew me the fuck away

dawn pumice
#

I’m telling u it’s voice direction with all of them

#

except for cream

oblique plank
#

I mean

#

Cream sounded okay

#

pretty much what I'd expect from a cartoon rabbit child in a Japanese mascot IP

mossy pine
#

Karen honestly wouldve been a good Cream

just tweak her nanako voice

dawn pumice
#

Cindy ain’t bad

#

She needs better direction

mossy pine
#

Cindy is sooooo interesting

oblique plank
#

Cindy and Roger get dealt with the most inconsistent Voice direction ever and it pisses me off because they're really great VAs

mossy pine
#

I still dont know what to think about her

#

Like Roger, I can still say all in all, I like

#

Cindy i still cant figure out an opinion this many years lager

dawn pumice
#

Na I’ll always stick with roger

#

Mans an incredible sonic

mossy pine
#

I like Roger

dawn pumice
#

He gets the snark so incredibly well

oblique plank
#

its gonna be really weird when we eventually move on to a new VA for Sonic

dawn pumice
#

But I still got gripes

mossy pine
#

Yeah when they have a quip, Roger kinda nails them

#

He NAILS like, passive aggressiveness

oblique plank
#

because Roger really cemented himself as Sonic for me and the whole general public

dawn pumice
#

As much as I love Roger

oblique plank
#

I can never watch Regular Show the same again

dawn pumice
#

Bro

#

My man cannot emote for shit

#

He sounds like he strains himself

mossy pine
sick bobcat
#

Sonic Boom convinced me that Roger's Sonic has a lot of range

oblique plank
dawn pumice
#

I’m glad Roger stuck around

dawn pumice
#

He’s trying to emote in Sonic’s voice, which is already him being high pitched

oblique plank
dawn pumice
#

Exactly

oblique plank
#

a scene that immediately comes to mind

#

"I QUIT HEROING AND I QUIT THIS STUPID MEETING"

smoky summit
#

smoky summit
#

Allsharkqueen is becoming increasingly annoying on the feed. Guess it's time to mute

#

The amount of flip flopping, jumping to conclusions, reaching

#

too much

oblique plank
#

me but with SEGA informant

smoky summit
#

Yep

#

Same thing

oblique plank
#

I'll still follow him to keep up to date with certain things

#

but man

dawn pumice
mossy pine
#

That was a fun little bit

dawn pumice
#

It’s a perfect mix of Roger being snarky as hell and then being genuine

oblique plank
#

part of me wants Frontiers DE to have some remaster of the cutscenes so they look more on par with something like Shadow Gens

round trout
#

I’m kind of like Sonic

dawn pumice
#

No u ain’t

round trout
#

Interesting name for the link

cunning echo
#

Dunno

#

This isn't the only game the dropped price right?

#

Because maybe Sega is just applying the Sony strat and just lowering the game prices after 3 or 4 years it released

#

Not sure if playstation did it with the PS5 exclusive tbh but at least most of ps4 exclusives are like 20 bucks in the ps store

ember junco
#

More specifically this part

cunning echo
#

Yeah

#

I was gonna say

#

Mostly cuz I just saw it 😭

#

But yeah I suppose the definitive thing is just a switch 2 port with no new content

#

Considering the next game won't be released until next year ig the new game for this year might be similar to frontiers in some way?

#

Are they doing a cyberspace game...

ember junco
#

I could see maybe a 2D game for this year

cunning echo
#

Hell no

#

Actually nvm

#

If it looks cool I'm up for it

#

I just hope is not classic sonic please

ember junco
ember junco
#

My 2 main bets for a big title this year is either a new Classic game or a collection

#

I use big loosely

cunning echo
#

I will bet a sonic forces/shadow gens scale game

sick bobcat
#

Sonic Origins Gems Collection

ember junco
cunning echo
#

Sonic Origins Plus Mania

#

Be ready

#

Mania dlc for origins and original mania getting delisted

#

🔥

ember junco
cunning echo
#

Not necessarily

#

I mean

#

They can just split the team

ember junco
#

True

cunning echo
#

Well not the whole team but like

#

Shadow gens was just the Olympics dev team

#

I just don't see a 2D game or at least not one by arzest or mania team

#

Could it be...

#

Sonic team back in 2D games

glossy sphinx
raw osprey
#

theres a chance it could be a spin off in dif genre made by dif developers not sonic team

#

because i dont think team b is ready to show something new

#

and team a is busy with frontiers 2

wise chasm
#

The general consensus swinging between "Frontiers DE is a switch 2 port" and "it's more than that for sure!" every time someone leaks something about it has been funny as fuck

mossy pine
#

The real Frontiers are the fronts we tiered along the way

oblique plank
#

What if Frontiers DE was just fake this whole time and it was an elaborate scheme by Katie to mess with us

#

Or Davih

#

Davih faked Frontiers DE the whole time in an effort to fool us

wheat kindle
#

It'd be really funny if Frontiers DE was just a graphical update for Switch 2 and instead we get a surprise 2D Classic game this year

#

And I don't see any game this year as I said

#

About the "hidden ring" I just meant that you access it through a random portal, it sounds really minor, especially for casual players

#

Really same vibe as the ring portal that takes you to the Keanu Reeves movie stage lmao

#

I guess it was like that because they are alternate stories

wise chasm
strange estuary
#

Depending on whatever Definitive Edition is, I can still see it

oblique plank
#

Frontiers DE can’t be the only thing we’re getting on the 23rd if it’s just a switch 2 port

#

Frontiers DE feels like it’s gotta be something more

strange estuary
#

I wouldn't count on it

#

I can see it going both ways

sick bobcat
#

I'm in the camp of Frontiers DE will be an enhanced port
due to their track record of adding new content for Sonic re-releases as of recent

cunning echo
#

June is around the corner so all we gotta do is put on the belt and see if the ride is enjoyable

ember junco
#

Ride home from a Sonicless June

cunning echo
#

That'd be funny

wheat kindle
#

otherwise it would cost 40 like the other versions...

#

I think Superstars DE/Plus is also possible, since both Frontiers and Superstars feel very unfinished, compared to the likes of Shadow Gens and Crossworlds

#

Would explain the reason for lowering the price of both Superstars and Frontiers to 40, while new versions could be on par with newer games in quality at least

wise chasm
#

The more time passes without the announcement, the higher the chance it is just a Switch 2 port

silent haven
#

escalators

wheat kindle
#

It could very well be a Switch 2 port with nothing else, then... that's a wrap for Sonic in 2026 lol

#

I agree with other people that it would be a sad anniversary anyway, in general (not for Frontiers DE) but it sounds like they don't have any news and that they are saving everything for the big movie next year and this year feels empty in general

sick bobcat
#

9 more days until June

coarse ferry
#

I was expecting high things over many anniversaries but most of them felt so... flat

wheat kindle
#

same as 2016 and 2021

#

they announced Mania and Forces and there weren't any releases until the next year, 2021 had Colors Ultimate, an anniversary to throw up, and announcements for the following year, again

#

I guess the "anniversary" has been just a marketing thing over the last decade

mossy pine
#

Its pretty much a merch and branding thing cause those are the only factors that can be immediately released. Having an announcement on an anniversary is how you tide it over game-wise, it feels

wheat kindle
#

it's still pretty weird how 2026 may be the only year without a new title though, we had new releases since 2021, every year

mossy pine
#

dont worry, all they gotta do is release blitz worldwide and bam, theres your anniversary title

wheat kindle
#

at least it fits with the "celebrate the whole history of Sonic" lol

last idol
#

Yeah tbh I think there’s going to be fun stuff this year but not necessarily games

#

Like frontiers DE in whatever form that takes

#

Maybe a 2D game or collection at most

#

But realistically it’s going to be more concerts, merch, animations etc.

mossy pine
#

Ye just more to emphasize segas view of sonic as a multimedia brand and less games

last idol
#

Exactly yeah

#

I think it’s fairly telling that their initial press for the anniversary basically mentioned everything other than games

mossy pine
#

Yeah, love it or hate it, thats what sonic kinda is now

#

Sega treats the movie as a major launch that can sub in for a game even

last idol
#

Rolling over some of the marketing budget into next years game probably makes a lot of sense as well

coarse ferry
#

I feel like also to keep in mind considering that we are in a era where games take a lot longer due to budget

#

And when it comes to SEGA's standard, they probably won't ready to show it until to do so (Either at TGA or SGF)

#

It's why I won't be surprised we will see Frontiers 2 at 2027

wheat kindle
#

I don't see it as a bad thing since they need to take longer to develop games, I'm glad the next main game is in 2027, but I would like some little shit this year too

coarse ferry
#

oh not saying it as a bad thing either. Just more of things are going to be handled from now on compared to back then

#

Like in 2000s era where we get so much sonic games, while in this era? It's a lot lesser

stiff salmon
#

utsumi completely eliminated the crunch culture that was present

#

all the games this era after frontiers (shadow gens, crossworlds) feel complete

stiff salmon
#

*in some cases anyway

#

looking at you kiwami 3

wheat kindle
coarse ferry
#

It’s essentially quality over quantity

wheat kindle
#

In the 2010 there was barely anything

#

Decade

#

They are handling correctly, as you said quality, they are also improving that over the years

#

So I imagine they're doing this cause Kishimoto relented that he's not necessarily good at this stuff, and Toyoda is swarmed with other things

#

But I wonder how much influence a JP writer will have?

#

I imagine not much on the next game since a lot of things are already put in place

#

But is this like... Mainly concerned with JP localizations and things of that nature?

lunar trench
#

Scenario writer huh

smoky summit
#

It says primarily focused on game scenario creation too

lunar trench
#

Ig this person is just gonna join the "jpn writing/lore/otherstuff team" or whatever you wanna call it

smoky summit
#

Idk

#

I mean as a byproduct sure

#

But this seems to be primarily working on the games

#

I don't think Sonic Team really had a dedicated writer since Unleashed?

#

I know Maekawa technically wrote Black Knight as well

#

But that wasn't his main thing for the most part

#

Kiyoko Yoshimura is the last person that was primarily a writer that was a part of the team

#

And she was brought on board from Sonic X

lunar trench
#

Iirc ian was given a scenario for frontiers and then wrote thr dialogue

I'm seeing people take this as (rather, jumping to conclusions, once again) that they're just NOW starting development on the next sonic game.

#

smoky summit
#

Ok I technically stand corrected

#

Yasushi Ohtake is the last dedicated writer who was a part of Sonic Team

#

But his contributions were... Lacking

#

He's basically the JP side's writer of the 2010s era

#

Starting from the 2nd Olympics game, Free Riders, Colors

#

All the way to support on the 2020 Olympic game

#

Then appears to have left sega

#

Worked on Shenmue 3 and Digimon Story Time Stranger

#

To be fair, I'm sure he was saddled with very strict guidelines for this era, and barely had any control compared to previous writers

#

Especially since English scenario were more than priority now

#

Sonic Forces also had Makoto Goya

#

But it was a one-off thing since I believe they are a freelance writer, not an employee

#

And then ofc for Frontiers they decided to go with Kishimoto and the assistant director

Aside from that, there wasn't much to expect with sonic dlcs before mania

#

Unleashed and 06 dlcs were pretty basic

#

Gens only had pinball

#

Ig lost world was cool but like, it was exclusive for one console while the multiplatform dlc (Nights) was pretty meh

#

And the exclusive zones are cool but not amazingly good anyways

strange estuary

Sonic Mania did DLC pretty well tho

It was ok at best

But for like 5 bucks is good

It added a new mode with a fun mechanic + 2 whole new characters

worst thing about them is micro transactions and that goes for every mobile game ever

# cunning echo Unless someone else puts money on it like Netflix or Apple

This is likely the reason why they delisted Sonic 1 & 2. I’m willing to bet Dream Team brought in a lot of new subscribers for Arcade and that’s why they’re not so quick to port the game to consoles. Can’t say much for Mania+ on mobile though, but I imagine it’s doing somewhat well with kids. You only need a basic Netflix subscription to play it.

cunning echo
#

Yeah

#

I wouldn't be surprised if dream team ends up on Netflix either

round trout
#

The stance for Dream Team could have changed though, it hasn’t been updated in 6 months

cunning echo
#

Hell, if any port ends up on Netflix lmao

#

But honestly I'm not sure if they will ever plan to port it at all

#

Dream team plays similar to a console game but is still pretty small and mobile like

What's the scope of whats been removed since before and now

cunning echo

all those characters that appeared in the first version were removed way before the game went on hiatus

in the third update or so

smoky summit

Well I didn't play the game when they shifted from 2 lanes to 1 lanes in the tcg period

But basically

#

Game is still on a grid system

#

Each character still has 1 ability

it was

smoky summit
#

Characters attack each other constantly while skills are on cooldown

#

I remember because shade was not there either when it got updated

#

only in the first ver

#

and they left the archie ones

And then each character has attack def hp now

Maybe some other stats too I don't remember

And by getting more cards of the same character, you can raise their stats

I think they just chatgpt a line of code ngl lmao

smoky summit

Most definitely

#

I think this game has strong basis in vibe coding lmao

#

They definitely had to do a lot of stuff manually

#

And it's not really broken in any way

#

But the speed at which they made it, revamped it, and kept making new animations

cunning echo
#

it wouldn't be weird

#

most dev teams are using ai for their workflows

ofc some just be lazy and leave it as is but most of the time they still look at it to do changes manually in case is wrong
