I fucking hate SSMB so much. It's just a huge circlejerk of autistic faggots who suck the dick of popular long time members to climb up a social ladder. Having a different opinion from the popular members is a crime. And what makes it worse is the autistic reddit-tier like system. That website needs to be obliterated.

>SSMB
A board for 13 year olds to roleplay and post fan fiction. Any actual discussion, of which there is little, is poorly presented and often bends to the whim of certain users due to a post Like system.

A place for 13 year olds to roleplay and post fan fiction. No discussion at all.

Retro, for how fucking retarded and douchey their community can be sometimes, is commendable. If it wasn't for them, we wouldn't have some of the best ROMhacks and fangames around, and their autistic screeching is what led to Generations, the Classic Sonic comeback, and of course RubyEclipse.

I'm really excited. I think trying to be more "gritty" or whatever would be fun, honestly a little disappointing if that one tweet about it being "not as dark as it seems" is true.

One big disappointment I have is that it seems to just be focused on Sonic. The whole "join the resistance" thing got me thinking there would be more going on than just Sonic or varying iterations of Sonic. I understand that mods will likely solve that problem, but that they aren't playable characters in the base game probably means that they won't be major characters in the story, which again I was looking forward to. I understand why so many people consider Sonic trying have any story leaning towards being dark or serious to just be stupid, and I even kind of agree with them, but I love that shit.

Having Modern and Classic gameplay is fine in my book, but it's this 3rd gameplay style that has me confused. We've already received confirmation that you will not be playing as any of Sonic's friends in this game which leaves us with 2 options:

A. We play as Eggman and his army, or
B. We play as Sonic for a third time, but somehow make it different enough from Classic and Boost to make it not redundant.

What could it possibly be? Help me out, fastbros. I'm wracking my brain here trying to make sense of this.

>>171514014
Maybe they really did not abandon Lost World's gameplay, and instead mixed it up with the other two? It was more or less predictable they would build on it, given that they said they would abandon boost.

>>171514014
The Eggman option isn't happening. The Nintendo Dream article has already specified that we are ONLY playing as Classic and Modern Sonic. This third style is either something for one of the Sonics, a filler style like Sky Chase in Adventure or the ship/bike in Rush Adventure, or something else entirely.

>>171514014
The third gameplay style will be a kind of between-levels filler like the boating in Rush Adventure. You upgrade Sonic's allies by getting red rings (red stars are featured prominently in the logo) and/or gathering supplies by grinding previous levels. Doing this enough times unlocks the next level.

If they're hyping it as a third gameplay then I don't think it'll be as shallow as merely grinding red rings. I think it'll be more like Rush Adventure where you grind short side levels for resources that you use to upgrade whatever, or possibly even Colors where you get red rings to unlock special stages, with the special stages being the third gameplay style.

OF THE CRATER

Eggman is able to take over the world because after the events of Generations, Classic Eggman went back to school and got his teaching degree.
With the newly gained ability to tell people what to do, Eggman slowly but surely took control of the planet.
Now Classic Sonic, Modern Sonic, and Silver have to go back in time and make sure Eggman flunks college.

Oh no, I don't mean that in the graphical sense. I mean that sonic doesn't work well with 3D gameplay. I've played enough modern sonic games to say that they just feel like stupid easy roller coaster rides whose main attack mechanic is basically a slipshod fix that had to be introduced to compensate for the fact that sonic is too fast for precision platforming and combat.

I have never seen a person with such a hot stick up his ass. It's amazing. Almost study worthy.

>>171517016
Sonic will never have a proper crash and burn death. Ever since SEGA pulled out of the hardware game they've just got too much extra money to burn driving this franchise into the ground and never ever trying anything interesting or new with the IP sort of how Nintendo keeps Mario pretty safe with the one exception of his SSB appearances.

Only difference is that Mario is an enduring timeless videogame icon and Sonic is a fucking 90's mascot that should have died with the 90's.

>>171517349
It sounds very familiar to an anime OP and I can't figure out which.

>>171517390
Honestly, I'd rather have them play it safe with SOnic than try a million new things each game. If each game from here on out was 3D Boost and 2D Mania style, I think it'd be the best possible outcome

>>171517016
I've been hearing this since Unleashed.

>>171516802
I think it would be funny if Mania bombed.
Then maybe he'd stop being in the Modern games for no reason.

>>171517528
This is the first time there's been a major turn-around for the franchise though.

I thought it sounded too Ohtani-like and that certain parts sounded very much like previous Sonic tunes. The part at 00:50 really bought me over, though, I wish it was longer.

Also listening to this again I can't help but think of a great intro animation with Sonic running around the destroyed city.

Oh & threadly reminder to ignore shitposters.

>>171517493
I agree. I still think it's sad that the most innovative and well-received thing SEGA has done is to just go backwards. I personally don't mind trying something different.

What if eggman based his robots around the wisps used to power them, and the kind of color power obtained depends on the kind of robot destroyed? i.e. avian robots in Sky Chase and Launch Base would give Crimson Eagle wisps, Orbinauts and their relatives could give Indigo Asteroid, and bots like iwamadoki from sonic & knuckles and asteron from Sonic 2 could give Black Bomb, amongst others?

In other words, Sonic meets Kirby?

i wasn't talking about the fanbase. I'm talking about the casuals. They buy games on word of mouth alone. Classic Sonic games (or rather S3 & K) are armor proof in terms of being bashed. But what will happen when Mania is put under the microscope?

Maybe just big ones that require a substantial amount of energy in the form of hyper-go-on power to perform their tasks, such as the pufferfish dropships from Sonic Lost World, would require color wisps. Everything else could just run on white wisps.

Alternatively, maybe the wisps could have been weakened from being used in machinery, and could only be used in temporary spurts before needing to be recharged. A more limited color power tank, but the option to toggle the power at will. But would it be a gamebreaker?

You know as well as I do they ignore everything pre-colours.
It'll just be Eggman has won because Sonic was off sick for a week and therefore has to unfuck things with his clone.

Unless you've got definitive proof that Sonic Forces is hitting way above it's age rating, when shit like Digimon featured some pretty hard hitting themes for a kids show, then I won't concede this.

Also you're probably just shitposting. Have a good day anyway. And even if you get your kicks from riling up Sonicfags, you're not as bad as Sparky. So if you're a shitposter, you need to be better, and if you're being serious, well, you could get a lot worse.

Well I finally decided to finish Sonic Rush months after I started it.
It was a really fun game for the most part but the boss fights just plain sucked. The final boss was alright I guess since it's the typical "Super Sonic fights Eggman in space" finale but other than that they were painful to go through and the reason I put the game off for awhile. That's my only real gripe with it outside of bottomless pits being as obnoxious as ever but that's Dimps for you.

Solidus was a more caring man than we knew.
I mean, when he lined up the soldiers and told them if they didn't kill, they wouldn't eat, that was just building much needed patriotic backbones of freedom.
When he fed them gunpowder it was to give them all an immunity to bullets because he loved them that much.
In the visual novel (which had such a shit ending it was unreal) for Jack's 7th birthday he got to slit 7 rebels necks. Y'know, like every other normal liberian child.
Solidus was a family man.

It's because he's over the top edgy. He's the only character that's not a joke and that's the joke. He's

>>171521130
The friction from the speed would cause his feet to disintegrate I imagine.

>>171520759
Shadow is naturally fast. In my opinion, he just can't run like Sonic does because Shadow's abilities have serious drawbacks. Since everyone expects me to reference Flash somehow, it's like if a DC Speedster was running so fast that they get absorbed into the Speed Force and essentially "die". I feel like that's what would happen to Shadow if he took off his skates and his ankle inhibitor rings.

>>171521438
What I mean is, Shadow = Sonic, but Shadow is like an unstable version of Sonic (ability wise). Like, (this is just an example, by the way) Sonic can run 10,000,000 laps around the world at 100x the speed of light, and he'd be completely fine afterwards. But if Shadow did exactly that, without his inhibitors and skates, he wouldn't come back from that. He'd vanish in the process.

I think your biggest problem is that Sonic does not equal Flash. You aren't just comparing apples to oranges, you treat them like they're the same thing. It's really not, at the end of the day.

Well

I was up from Friday around 3 am and stayed up all night until 7 Saturday because I had to work, and when I was finally ready for bed it was 4 am so I decided to stay up, worked til 3pm saturday went home and slept

I don't like my new job really, all its made me do is wonder what I can do with my life that I can make an income yet not feel weighed down, I've posted about it before, I'm the resumefag .

It's a canonical fact that everyone who appeared in Sonic Battle is equally powerful and can beat any other combination of characters in a 1v3.

>>171522067
I was just using the Flash as an example, for 'running too fast has consequences'.

>>171522287
Why the flash? Why not a different, more interesting character? Like Speedy Gonzales? Or Roadrunner?

>>171522287
But you also have headcannons that Sonic taps into some sort of speed force, which is what I'm referring to.

>>171522231

I was part of this Sonic roleplay group on some Sonic online games site that had a chatroom feature I discovered years ago when I was like...11 or 12. They even got me to join DeviantArt for awhile.

>>171522257
Actually, not really, because, the entire game Sonic is holding back until the Ultimate Emerl fight, and of course Shadow has his inhibitors.

>>171522347
The Flash is, in my opinion, one of the top fastest ultimate speedsters in all of media, the other being Sonic himself. From everything I know about both characters, they are equally fast, and everything else about them almost seems perfectly opposed to each other. Sonic is Blue, The Flash is Red. Sonic is a free spirit who does what he wants and roams the land, The Flash is a police scientist who protects his city. Sonic's use of his speed is carefree, impulsive, high energy and relaxed, The Flash's use of his speed is more focused with a scientific approach to understanding it and manipulating it. The two of them meeting would be interesting to see, since they are so different from each other.

>>171522395
I don't think Sonic taps into a "Speed Force". I just think the way Sonic's speed functions is similar to the Speed Force, but it's entirely innate and not some extradimensional cosmic force permeating all of reality.

>>171522820
But Speedy Gonzales is the fastest mouse in all Mexico. I bet he could beat Sonic in a race.

Thats not a Music Rythm game. I mean more like Mario DDR Mix or Hatsune Miku ish.
Something to actually go along with the music not some Shitty ass RPG.

What are you smoking? Even young me wasn't a big fan of it and the special stages are snooze fests.

>>171526225
Oh.

>>171510734
What time does it start?

>>171526098
It's the controls. The isometric camera angle makes it difficult to accurately determine how close you are to enemies. The camera angle also kills the speed. Actually CD and 3D Blast are similar in that they're both slower paced and more focused on exploration. I've played 3D Blast enough that it's not a problem for me, but it's not one of the better 2D titles.
>poor attempt at pseudo 3D
>piss easy special stages
>embarrassing re-release on the Saturn in an attempt to cover up several failed projects
Granted the Saturn and PC versions had actual 3D special stages but I don't think they're anything special. The Saturn ost is alright but the Genesis OST is pretty much the best thing about 3D Blast.

Holy fuck and I thought I was bad for using it up until 2014.
tfw XP was Wangblows last truly great OS.

>>171526564
yeah, the special stages are kinda shit and a bit too easy. but fuck the time travel bullshit in cd. 3D blast at least feels like a sonic game to some degree.

>>171526784
>camera killing speed
at least I can bolt to where I need to go on a second playthrough much like the 2D sonics. can't say the same for CD

>>171526963
He'll probably be half dead, he was travelling all the way from Japan. I just want some good news pls

Not even memeing, but who the fuck are these people & why should I care?

>>171525834
That tweet Cindy posted really got the Shadamy fans going, huh?
This is still funny despite that I really dislike the ship.

It's too bad 3D blast wasn't a regular 2D title. I love Blast's level design (except Spring Stadium) and would have liked to see it in a Sonic and Knuckles style game.

>>171527268
Literally who?

>>171527268
So a bunch of nobodies are parroting other faggots.

>>171527549
Yeah but I honestly think she's trolling. At least I hope she is.

So anon when is that Sonic 3D blast going to stream? Twitch or Youtube?
If not I am going to watch Kung Pow enter the Fist from the Rabb.it website

Oh, I know. I'm just talking in general.

The 25th anniversary party was perfect.

It had just the right balance of cringe and fun. That's why I love this community.

>>171527969
It's pretty obvious that she is. It's weird to me that there's people who'll take it seriously either way.

Or care passionately about who boom amy likes.

>>171530137
Yeah, I don't get it either. Boom!Amy has liked other guys before, so it's no big deal to me.

>>171530043
SAVING THE STAKES FUH FRUM EVULLALALAAAH!!!

>>171530456
I think it's just shipshit, & people not liking the idea of Amy liking someone other than Sonic. But yeah, while Boom!Amy likes him, she's been shown to like/crush on other characters before in the show.

Besides I don't get why people are so hung up on that tweet, when Cindy was clearly fucking around.
