Reminder that there are people on this board RIGHT NOW defending Sonic Forces. What do you have to say about yourselves?

I won't defend the actual game itself because honestly it just doesn't look particularly interesting, but the OC gimmick is a clever move. The Sonic franchise is notorious for shitty OCs and Sega effectively acknowledging and embracing that is attracting a lot of attention to the game, which I guess they'll hope will increase when early copies get out to LPers who will inevitably have a field day with it.
Hope you guys are ready for an endless onslaught of "OMG COLDSTEEL AND SONIC?! LET'S PLAY SONIC FORCES PART 1", because that's what's gonna happen.

As someone who doesn't like sonic people looking forward to mania are the sadder of the two. Paying for remade nostalgia and overdesigned classic style levels. Those are the people that sperg out over sonics jumps being 1mm off what it used to be.

Spoken like someone who doesn't actually play games.
Oh wait, I guess that's fitting for /v/.

>overdesigned classic style levels
Yeah? I don't care for the remade old levels really, but I don't see your argument here.

All sonic fans are autistic. I wish 4chan hadn't worn out that insult so it still meant something.
>>377164341
Well, it's either that or a game with canon OCs and outdated "classic" gameplay
That OC maker in Forces just pushed it over the edge for me. No fucking thank you

This. I had zero interest in Forces until this announcement, now I'm looking forward to seeing all the shit designs when the game launches. Still wouldn't pay full price for boostshit Sonic, but if the story is as laughably bad as 3D Sonic has been in the past the inclusion of OC characters will make this a glorious tragedy.
ive watched sonic float face down in his own sick for years now out of obligation to my younger self.
might as well play em both.
>>377163391
I'll defend it on the notion of it being an intelligent business move, while also providing memes like no other.
>>377163391
what if I want to play both
>>377164718
that was a very clever self-referential joke, anon
>>377165068
It made me actually want the game
Looks hilarious as fuck and I can't wait for that wonderful OC we're going to get when it's out
