I have mixed emotions on it XD for me it was a solid good game, maybe 8 out of 10.
it didn't blow me away however the reasons why it didn't was mainly because it seems like there is tons missing from the game, and that kinda let me down a little bit. no chaos fight, (it seemed poinless for him to even be there) or shadow fight. infinite didn't have a final battle where u got to hear like his lyric song, they made such a great song only to use it barely. and no super battle :c and from what i heard on data mines, there is coding there for a final super battle stage yet it's not there. it did feel rushed. hopefully maybe they add it in, if they was planning too, but because of the reception i'm doubting they even will now.
honestly if i could describe it, it reminds me of an artist working on a comic. it starts out strong with some great stuff, but gradually feels rushed and like they wanted to end it quickly cuz they was bored of it.
I loved infinite and i feel like the last time you fight him wasn't well epic enough, his first boss battle was way more interesting in my opinion, i loved that. since they gave infinite such a great power to be creative with, i feel like they kinda didn't use that idea of him being able to mess with reality to it's extent.
metropolis when he uses it and creates those fucked up infinites, was really unsettling and awesome! that is by far my fav level, it really reminded me of some of the things they used to do in the games like in sonic heroes when you see that eggman figure, but if you hit the switch, reversed it turns into neo metal sonic. i always loved things like that so when they did that, and actually used infinites ability to mess with reality i thought that was great! missed oportunity to use it more if i'm honest. dissapointing that they had such a good outlet for creativity in the levels and only used it once.
i really want to see infinite return as i love his character and his powers! the way he dissapears seems like werid and odd like he dissapeared somewhere, and was meant to make a comeback. and also i think he deserves a huge final boss.
i wished shadows story was much longer, and the game as a whole was much longer too! we was lead to think it was going to not be a short game yet i completed the story mode in 6 hours, about the same as generations for me. and i did it in hard mode lmao. it feels lacking and incomplete, like there was meant to be more. i think it would of been a solid 10 for me if the game as as long as heroes, special stages and chaos emeralds was in the game, as it would of made more replay value. and there was a final super fight (being infinite) as well as chaos and shadow fight too. but because it wasn't as fleshed out of a game and feels more like a short story, it doesn't beat some of my fav sonic games so far, but i'd say it's in the top 4
i honestly have so much more to say about it but xD i don't want to post too much. sorry for the wall of text.

I caved and watched all the cutscenes on YT, (curse my burning curiosity! :C ) but I will buy it eventually.
A lot of fans (myself included) have been wanting a return to these types of stories after so long. It wasn't bad as I'm seeing a good chunk claim it is; but hopefully there will be some more DLC down the line to fill out the story gaps.
