Commenting on the SXSG leaks, though not getting too specific

I'm not adding any links or images since I personally don't want to distribute these leaks, but twitter user (@)MSROPls is the source.

I've gone back and forth on if the leaks are accurate because there are inconsistencies, such as a screenshot of a cutscene with the subtitles but the video version has the subs cropped out, the delivery of a line being so bad I question if it's AI, one of the scenes using Sonic's Frontiers model, none of the lip-syncing being changed, and the poor video/audio quality.

That said, there's too much. One or two scenes, a screenshot, easily edited. But this amount of info? It's accurate. Also they recently admitted to recording a Discord call of a person who actually had access to the game, so it wasn't their footage, but still real.

Honestly? I'm torn. On one hand, yeah Gens is THE callback game. If you're going to do nudge winks at people, it is the game to do it.

A rehash of the faker scene should be appealing to my SA2-nostalgia-loving-ass, even at 13. I want to like it, you have no idea how many times I've watched that clip trying to convince myself to like it.

I don't have an inherit problem with callbacks either, so logically I should be fine or even like what's in the leaked clips. So why don't I?

Gens was the latest release when I was getting into Sonic, I was like 13 so it was a very different time. I was always disappointed Gens didn't have much of a story. If this was what the original script was, I probably would've been all over it, right?

Yet I find it flat at best and the bad cringe at worst. Original Gens I just thought was lacking substance, but this is so...forced.

It's not cool. It's not funny. It doesn't meaningfully add to the interactions.

I also have to ask why these changes were made. Why does Tails need to mention West Side Island and question if the Time Eater caused this? What was wrong with him saying the pink water made him nervous? Why does Amy need to insist she's not a damsel in distress by stating next time, she'll save Sonic? What does this change really do?

It's kind of hard to judge until I'm able to see the full, final piece, but knowing how this 13-year-old story ends, I don't see how this will add anything. It's like replacing dialogue that was fine (not outstanding, just fine) with filler text. They spent resources on this? I just don't get the logic behind it.

I've already been iffy on this game, but I just hope the final product comes together in a satisfying way. We'll see when I eventually play it.

I actually think if ur the boss, don’t show up on time, and I have to wait outside for nearly half an hour, then I don’t have to do any work for the rest of the day

I'm on my 3rd or 4th listen through of 'Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries', and have read the physical book once. Just waiting for that sequel to come out.

January feels so far away...
