I've also made a review for Sonic Forces here:

Stardust Speedway IS the speed level. There's even an achievement for doing it fast enough. Really puts you to the test
-
You should play again as Knuckles. He has an entirely different Green Hill Act 1, fixes your problem with Mirage Saloon, and has a different boss for Lava Reef Act 2. Also the 3rd phase of Metal Sonic has been updated since this video.

27:48 “it wouldn’t be a sonic the hedgehog game without the 7 chaos emeralds and a true final boss” So forces isn’t a sonic game? I’m fine with that
-
with how good Sonic Mania was, it is pretty crazy that the story of mania directly ties in with sonic forces
-
Sonic Mania basically took everything from its 2-D predecessors and mashed it up into one big mega bomb of a great game that I'm sure blew everyone's minds when they played it. Hopefully we get many more 2-D Sonic games to come from this one doing so well.

"Sonic Mania has been out for a little over two months now". Me: watching this video 4yrs later...
-
I love that at 14:56 you can see eggman in the background. I love that attention to detail
-
I've never actually experienced the spike trap boss fight with Metal Sonic. He's always gone into his "Phantom state (if you will)" for me instead
-
"Feels oddly nostalgic" "I like the Greek pillars"He was a Greek in a past life.

I loved sonic mania. It was my first sonic game. Also bick, I'm really glad you're expanding your content. I think it's a pretty good choice due to you having a decent audience size now. And your audience is familiar with your personality so expanding your content isn't a problem at all. This is a really well made video and the script must've taken a long time. Good job dude.

In mirage saloon zone, if you play as knuckles you don’t do the sky chase part and instead get a cool new act 1 with new music etc.
-
"Sonic jumps into a giant gun." This deserves an Oscar.
-
Something I really love about the Flying Battery Act 2 that you forgot to mention is how, with some exploring, you can switch from Flying Battery to Wing Fortress from Sonic 2 at times!
-
I love the references to fan games as well, for example the jello from cpz act 2 was taken from techno hill zone, from srb2, titanic monarch was probably inspired by titanic tower, a level from sbts, and the studiopolis boss could be a reference to storm station, from sats. Sega still does what nintendon't.
-
I do agree the final boss was a little underwhelming. Imagine something on the scale of Sonic 3 & Knuckles' final boss, not only talking about Doomsday Zone but the buildup to the Doomsday Zone fight.
-
Really digging these review type videos, awesome work.
-
For the weather boss, sometimes Eggman can get to a height where you can't reach him, until the heat from the heat lamps makes him fall. As for the spider boss, sometimes you can land a hit with a spin dash, though if you miss you'll be hitting the spikes yourself.
-
Sonic Mania felt more like a remake/remaster than a sequel to 3&K. It was great and all, but I'm still kinda waiting on that "true successor" to 3&K.
-
The way you say "Hydrocity" like how Megamind says it has me reeling
-
This is your best video in my opinion. Great job man.
