It has potential. A Mayan Zone has only been done once, and that's this. It could be so much more.

It's only the last act of Marble that's truely bad, and even then it's not really bad. I can see how it would be disappointing right after Green Hill though. It would have helped to have had a zone like Spring Yard in between.

That said, Marble Zone has great music, and I hope the zone gets redeemed through a remix in Mania.

hydrocity is GOAT
marble garden is giant-sized and full of alternate paths, if you hate it you are a pleb
carnival night has the barrel and otherwise is fucking fine
ice cap is a borefest but it's fast so people give it a pass
launch base is chemical plant hard mode

You can shit on Sonic 3's special stages all you want but they're sure as hell better than Sonic 2's half-pipe. I'd rather have a special stage that has a variety of components to it with the whole blue spheres that can turn into rings if you go on the outer sides of it along with a perfect bonus if you get all the rings, has spring spheres, bumper spheres and that progressively gets faster as time goes on adding to difficulty than what is essentially an auto-scroller that just throws some bombs over the place while you jump & press left or right to get the rings with Tails screwing you since they expect a second player to be playing with you always.

I think you're thinking of Stealth. Taxman hasn't actually made any rom hacks (I believe anyways, I could be wrong. I wouldn't be surprised if he did.), only fan games with custom engines.

if you actually think Mania is going to outsell OC creator, the pinnacle of autism, the weaponized, true dark beast ganon of autism, the central point of all Sonics collective years of FILTH culminated into one giant fucking gass ball of pure autism, you're fucking delusional
>>
>>382145797

As much as I want Mania to succeed, Anon, it won't reach the heights Forces will, even if review scores are more positive (which they probably will be). Forces has the whole OC thing & it being physical in stores unlike Mania so plenty of kids & their parents will see it more. Mania only has the $20 price tag going for it.
>>
>>382146114
just adding to this, you know when you beat a final boss, and it has a second form? and then you beat that form, and it reveals a THIRD form?

and then the credits roll, and there is a fourth form? This is Segas fourth form, OC creator. it will sell billions and we'll take it like the fucks we are. You cannot stop the autism, they will fuel this fourth boss like some god and we'll get forces sequels and spins off with dlc cosmetics for your custom character, and personal music, mark my words. the end is nigh, mania is sonics last stand, but it'll go out in fucking fireworks and glory

I'm hoping it becomes another Symphony of the Night scenario.
Symphony of the Night was a side project, just like Mania, and it came out far ahead of Castlevania 64, which was supposed to be the main project.

This is the only true thing said in any of past couple of Mania threads. This isn't a resurrection of Sonic, this is his final fucking boss battle against the true darkness, which is the OC creator.

I always assumed the audience for a Sonic game that looked and played like it came from a time when they made good Sonic games would be larger than the insane OC furry fanbase. There's also the fact that Mania sells for a third of the price of Forces, making it an easier impulse buy.

I love what Mania is, who made it, the passion and love of every single person making it, but I honestly don't think people realise what the fuck that OC creator is.

Sega could release a Sonic OC creator as a STANDALONE game, and it would make billions, the fact that there is the extra classic sonic, modern, and FUCK IT, just add EVERY old sonic villain is just going to 100% guarantee this shit makes a megafuckton of cash.

I'm not sure how to feel about it, true love and passion crushed by greed and ultimately, autism. It's so chaotic evil that Sega are geniuses.

your assumption is sadly wrong friend, the average Deviantart furfag probably was not even born back in the day when Sonic was great, and are so used to the zero effort 3D games they are openly scornful or dismissive of the games that actually were great and required some degree of player input. And the OC creator is like a done fucking deal, the game itself could be like Plumbers Don't Wear Ties and they'd STILL buy it for the TRUE and OFFICIAL Original Character creator.

I was initially interested in Forces myself since I liked Generations quite a bit even if the physics for Classic Sonic were shit but fuck, the more I see Forces the more negative I get about it. Green Hill's level design looked dull & the presentation of it was lacking since Generations version of it had nice scenery in the foreground and nice camera angles where as Forces has none of this (yes I know they showed a early build so far so it could change, but so far I'm judging off what they've released) and while it was OP in Generations I kind of liked how strong the spindash was for Classic Sonic, now it's a bit boring looking. At least the Egg Dragoon part of the boss had a neat thing going for it with the rocks but I wish they didn't even use the Egg Dragoon & it was an original creation instead.

Modern Sonic looks on-tier with Generations so I'm fine with him so far but I don't get why the double jump is returning from Colors and why 2D sections still need to be in there, I really want Modern to focus on the 3D parts only if the other gameplay modes are having them.

The OC needs to fuck off, I don't care for character creators and while I give it props for having variety in how you play as them the gameplay doesn't look fun for him at all to me, especially that first boss with the QTEs.

Also as a side note, the music hasn't impressed me like most Sonic games do, I think people are exaggerating how bad it is but they just come off as meh to me, it's a little disappointing.

I'm the opposite. I enjoyed Sandopolis, but found Marble Garden to be a slog to go through.
>>
>>382153013
Not him but I agree. Despite playing a shitload of Sonic 3 as a youngin, looking back I found a lot of the zones to be kind of sloggish to go through. The best zones were probably Ice Cap, Hydrocity and Launch Base. S&K was pretty good though.

Sorry, I can't help it if I find Sandopolis a bore. I'm not saying it's a bad zone at least, it doesn't do anything mechanically wrong or anything, it just doesn't entertain me.

Mania is a good return to the original sonic aesthetics. Cel anime was the best. I wish Sonic Mania would output 240p so I could play it on my CRT.
>>
>>382154474
I've got some good news for you anon

Mania has a CRT filter that can be turned on in the options, did it at this years E3. It is honestly the greatest fucking thing ever, and it's hard to choose to play colourful as fuck 1080p version or nostalgia trip CRT filter. They've thought of everything.
>>
>>382150649
SHUT UP TAILS
>>
>>382154474
>>382154653
Also Taxman said a while ago that Mania runs at 4:3 aspect ratio just fine, so I assume that will be an option.
>>
>>382153961
good eye, it did

still think Mania will have a chatoix level.
>>
>>382153757
I love Marble but no

>>382154653
I'm going to do a playthrough with both to see which i prefer, dunno which one to choose first though.

Honestly the Mania one is a clusterfuck when you're playing it. Both this and Studiopolis feel more like CD than 1-3&Knuckles which I'm really disappointed.
>>
>>382155761
Looks like 3&K to me all the way through, the path encourages you & hints at where to go and there are multiple paths with secrets to find.

you go down the hole the boss makes in green hill act 2, it's labyrinth zone act 1, get to the boss, boss makes another hole

act 2 is hydrocity


telling you right fucking now they'll give certain shittier levels (lab zone) 1 acts instead of two, you heard it here first
>>
>>382156340
This would be the fucking icing on the cake, but then we'd lose the chance to hear a Tee Lopes Act 2 remix of Labyrinth.

I expect it to feel different but I highly highly doubt it's CD at all, it just bares very little resemblance to it.
>>
>>382156340
In the game, is the main path going to be down that hole?
Imagine if the game has branching pathways, where you can ignore the hole to go to a different zone, or go through the path like you said.

Ice Cap Zone and Lava Reef Zone.

>>382156680
That would be amazing, but I doubt it. Can only see it being forced into the next level, maybe in the sequel that can be a option
>>
THE ELEVATOR. WHAT IS THE ELEVATOR. Does it go to certain levels? Does it take you to a world and then that is the entire game to run through? Will we go back to the elevator each time we complete a level? Is the elevator just marketing material? Will the elevator play tee lopes version of elevator music in it?
>>
>>382156680
Maybe they could use that as a way to add a couple bonus zones. Kinda like how they added Hidden Palace to Sonic 2 mobile.

>>382156550
I'm not gonna take some rando's word for it even if you have played it. Besides I love CD so I think I would know if something looked like CD which Mania doesn't. One of CD's key components is the time travel which encourages back tracking for generators, Mania on the other hand only has the giant rings for emeralds much like 3&K which once you get all 7 kills any need to move anywhere but forward. Again nothing in that image looks like CD. You have a bottom, middle, and top path all on track to the miniboss.
>>
>>382157318
not that anon, but the only thing about CD's level design that Mania seems to be adopting is how vertical it is. Which isn't a bad thing.

Hydrocity is in the sky, though. That wouldn't make any sense. If anything you get blown out of Labyrinth Act 2 into like... Hill Top?
>>
>>382157698
STOP FUCKING CHUCKLING YOU RED ECHIDNA FUCK! WITH YOUR 3 TIPPED DICK! STOP!
>>
>>382158308
Labyrinth is on South Island. Hill Top is on West Side Island.
>>
>>382158431
>>382158308

MANIA. I can assure you, the geometry doesn't fucking matter, they're obviously going for bat shit insane and want to surprise us, you fall into the original hydrocity, remember that.
>>
>>382158431
I know, but maybe it sends you far enough to be on another island. You have to get out of Labyrinth somehow, and it most likely involves water.
>>
Daily reminder that in Sonic 2 for the Game Gear, the bad ending, Tails fucking dies.
>>
>>382158594
>>382158637
Shit yeah, how are they gonna link all of these fucking zones together? Is there even a 'plot' to this game?
>>
>>382158594
It has to. They said you're revisiting places for story reasons, and it being a throwback is cool and all, but that wouldn't make any sense, and the story HAS to make sense. Going from Angel Island (Zone, aka "Welcome To Angel Island Zone) made sense because the island was big enough for that.
>>382158783
It's confirmed that there is.
>>
>>382158783
I think that is exactly the point, the zones will be randomly linked by mad shit happening, as in, falling into lab zone, only to fall further in, and you're in fucking hydro
>>
>>382158594
>>382158637
Silly anons, the hole leads to a giant cannon that launches you to Angel Island.
>>
>>382159092
Nope, I just got official confirmation from Tee Lopes that the 2nd zone will be Hole Zone.
>>
Telling you fucks right now, watch footage of where eggman falls when you defeat him in GH2. He falls in the hole. You know that fuck is coming out of there in a bigger mech they are not showing off. What if sonic and knuckles final boss comes out of that hole?
>>
>>382158919
Mad shit is going to be happening but I'm pretty sure it has to make sense, at least. Of course, it doesn't matter that much, because Hydrocity is great.
>>
>>382159306
...Two Phases? For the FIRST BOSS IN THE GAME? That would be ridiculous. Amazing, but kind of ridiculous. What Sonic game has 2 phases on the first boss?

There can be Island transitions in addition to Act and Zone transitions.

My theory:
2 old Zones on South Island, followed by 1 new Zone on South Island.

2 old Zones on Westside Island, followed by 1 new Zone on Westside Island.

2 old Zones on Little Planet, followed by 1 new Zone on Little Planet.

2 old Zones on Angel Island, followed by a new Zone on Angel Island, followed by 2 more old Zones on Angel Island, followed by 1 more new Zone on Angel Island.
>>
>>382160003
If it wasn't for Metal Sonic being a shoe-in, I would've liked to see Mecha Sonic make an appearance. And as long as it wouldn't be the final boss, the Doomsday Zone ship/mech would be great.

>>382160003

There's going to be a new final zone, so that would probably make 6 new zones. Maybe 7, if they're generous.

YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LET ME LIVE OUT MY FANTASY OF A GIANT FUCKING PLANET WITH ARMS OKAY, CHRIST ANON.

As you get to the pinnacle of each arm, about to destroy the thing, the music is a remix of the boss music, Tee Lopes the FUCK out, when you're on the second arm you can see the giant arm you just destroyed falling and crashing into the floor in the distance, really showing you the size of the thing and how small you are in comparison, all this with Tee as the Dj blasting a remix of the boss song getting more god tier as you go to destroy the final arm.

well we have other items of power all through out sonics history, the "civilization" i like to think the ones that built Labyrinth Zone researched powerful crystals and shit, and created all sorts of things with these different crystals.

Like the Time Stones, Chaos Rings, And a few of the times from the modern (though i doubt it based on fuck continuity SEGA has embraced)

How ever i am pretty sure they didn't create the Chaos Emeralds, themselves, as it is stated in the manual they literally came from Gods.

every game gets representation, and they split S3&K into S3 then S&K we already got our S&K representation with Flying Battery, SO we WON'T get Sky Sanctuary.

This leaves Sonic 3 rep which leave Angel Island which wont happen because we have our Green Hill already, Marble Garden, which many DON'T want, Carnival Night which won't happen because we have our circus level set aside as new zone based on the hard boiled heavys.

Ice Cap and Launch base can't happen due to the music being copyrighted to fuck, which just leaves us with Hydrocity Zone to represent Sonic 3 and the water stage.
Which will probably be both Labyrinth Hydrocity, and Tidal Tempest mixed together.

Process of elimination, and logic, my friend.

I honestly don't understand how there are so many sonicfags on /v/.

This franchise has been exclusively trash since the Saturn shat out Sonic R.

I get the temptation of excitement over Mania, Genesis was my first console, but the more and more we hear about what Sega has done and now its 60% previous stages, I stopped caring.

Because sonic unleashed made the series worth checking out again. Of course, it only last all of one game before they fucked up the formula and made some of the worst level designs in the series. But the genesis games and sonic unleashed 360 will always be gold star games. Quit being a faggot.

>>382165746
Boost gameplay is, at best, just running forward at max speed doing QTEs for minutes at a time; a glorified interactive cutscene that is allergic to player autonomy. At worst, it's shit so fucking shallow that it always needs to be propped up by something else:
>Fisher Price God of War
>blocky 2D platforming with ass physics
>a shitty imitation of the Genesis games with ass physics
>Deviant Art OC maker

Unleashed is even worse for wear, since the "good" part of it can just be modded into Generations.

Sonic Utopia is a better 3D Sonic game than all three of them and it's just a boring proof of concept tech demo. Because it's actually a 3D Sonic game. Not a "3D" "Sonic" "game".

False. Genesis soundtrack is excellent and fits well with the other Genesis Sonic OSTs. Saturn soundtrack is less like the classic Sonic OSTs but considering 3D Blast is more exploration focused it works. Saturn OST is damn good but the Genesis one certainly isn't overrated.

how can geometry matter if we start in GHZ, we'll obviously fall into somewhere, he mentioned the hole, each ending has to lead to the next, and if we go by the elavator, mania is just fucking mania, madness, do whatever the fuck it wants, it's not like if we go to ghz, drop into hydrocity some nerd will go um excuse me that isn't correct etc

I like Lost World and some of Forces' music but there are some glaring flaws with them, specifically that LW's soundtrack is composed with the environment in mind but without tapping into that essential "Sonicy" sound.
Forces on the other hand is going too far in the other direction with character driven music which (Park Avenue suits the Avatar's feeling badass saving the world, but doesn't fit the city itself at all).

Maybe, but the fact that we're trickling old zones into new zones back into old zones means geometry means nothing. I have no idea what will happen at each end cutscene level or whatever, but however we get there, will just break all the laws of physics. It won't be a long flight from island to island or something, you might be in Mirage Saloon and then the next minute you're running into chemical plant, story line has no effect when we know some of the things the bosses do, it'll just be mania, which is amazing. Of course there will be a story for it, but I don't think a story will effect how you transition into each level

Since Generations it's basically Ohtani and Eguchi (Is he even working on Forces?) doing all the composing with Hataya or Senoue giving just one or two tracks. Ohtani's still got some creativity left but he would be much better off collaborating with his colleagues like in the good ol' days.

Going back and playing Unleashed on my 360, there are some levels which look next gen, I have no idea how they got that game to look as good as it did on that shit hardware, that level where you're running over the ocean and through the lush green forest almost looks fucking next gen

Unleashed day levels really were something, but I don't want them to keep them as they are in Forces, Sonic needs a change in modern, I think Unleashed should of been the first and last proper boost game, werehog stages were not as bad as people say.
>>
>>382168601
IN one of the rare instances of accidental genius, they play this song on the next level right after sonic realizes he may be the last man of Mobius (earth or what have you) alive.

i KNOW they didn't do that on purpose but god damn if this song hits you in the feels after that moment of clarity he got. There is no douche bag hur dur sonic, its just quiet contemplation as sonic rushes forward; maybe in his mind, hoping he can save everyone, before its too late.

Because if not, he WILL be the last thing alive.

Well, that was right after a bunch of management and staff were changed, after 06. Sega gave a bunch of young graduates a blank check and told them to make the best game they could make and thats just what they did...its a passion project through and through and you can see it oozing from every section of the game. Lighting, world, environment, and architectural design, music, camera angles, special effects, presentation, 2 complete sonics, objects and set designs...you dont get a game like that unless you have a shit load of money.

yeah in lost world the Zeti are using Eggman's life force stealing machine and are literally sucking Mobius and all that are on it dry.

Right after the fact that the leader Zavoc taunts sonic that tails is gonna be a robot, Eggman Fell to his death into lava, and zavoc is saying how everyone on Mobius is dying or already dead.

Next scene is sonic on the miles electric trying to contact Amy and Knuckles but only static. Yeah they are fucking dead in this story.
Sonic is Alone now and you can actually feel the true feeling of dread and peril.

The very next level is sonic racing down this grind-rail tubes with this music playing, its actually rather nice for tone in the story, but i doubt they did that on purpose.

Theres no winning. People would complain if it was to short, people complain if theres a new gameplay. Sonic rush got away with it because its a handheld game made with a much cheaper engine and graphics. HD development is expensive. The best solution then would be if it just remixed the act 1s, and at night there would be an act 2, maybe shorter, and heavily reusing layouts from act 1. So you end up playing the level twice, similar to how sonic rush did sonic and blaze. And i bet people would still complain at that to because anything sonic is nitpicked to hell, thanks to the cancerous environment classic crybabies have established. In the end it doesnt really matter, because even when juggling 2 gameplays, the day stages are still leages beyond anything that came out after. Modern park avenue is pathetic

There's no proof or confirmation that Mania is double dipping, but it's very likely.

>5 is 40%

Yes, people will complain no matter what. That's a stupid excuse to fall back on in order to retroactively justify shitty design choices that you happen to have nostalgia for.

More realistic solutions would have been:
>sell it cheaper
>spend several more years developing a complete game

or my favorite
>make it a racing game so each stage can have multiple laps, literally multiplying the length of the game x fold
>add multiple playable characters with slightly different abilities so each track/stage has replay value
>add multiplayer, both local and online
>release it on PC so the fanbase can get even more longevity out of it with a modding community

Bam. Dense game with loads of guaranteed content and replay value, and no reliance on half baked secondary gameplay styles.

If there's actual demand for Fisher Price God or War that they want to capitalize on, they can make a spinoff game for it. If there's actual demand for Classic Sonic gameplay that they want to capitalize on, they can make a spinoff game for it. They're actually finally doing this with the latter, making Classic Sonic in Forces even stupider.

1's double dip can be Labyrinth with gimmicks from Hydrocity and Tidal Tempest. 3's double dip can be Ice Cap. &K's double dip can be Death Egg, the definitive "final zone" in Sonic, with gimmicks from Scrap Brain, Metropolis, etc.

CD's double dip can be Collision Chaos, with gimmicks from Spring Yard and Casino Night.

Nobody fucking wants labyrinth, scrap brain, metropolis, collision chaos, or spring yard to return besides masochistic autistic classic faggots who say everything genesis is perfect 100/10. Those levels are fucking junk
>>
>>382172432
CD's double-dip should be Quartz Quadrant

>Nobody fucking wants labyrinth, scrap brain, spring yard
Speak for your self you piece of shit
Why don't you get the fuck out of my franchise you fucking newfag? I'm sick of your millennial ass
>>
>>382172696
agree
>>
>>382172798
not him but it isn't your franchise you absolute retard, labyrinth is a shit zone, scrapbrain is sub par, spring yard is shit but has incredible music
>>
>>382171991
Mystic Cave over Casino or garbage Wing Fortress.
Anything over Hydrocity.

>>382172241
This.

Spring yard was alright

No

Can't hear you with that muffled audio

>>382172663
I'm not a big advocate of Sonic 1, but Spring yard is like 1 of the 3 decent levels.

But anon muh platforming that consist over swinging platforms and muh speed that's EARNED.
>>
>>382172798
calm down. star light is the best zone in sonic 1. you don't control the opinions of the masses.
>>
>>382172985
>hurr durr I can't rocket through it on my first try so it's bad

You fags are the reason we have the awful Boost games.
>>
>>382173032
Its only decent because of how bad the rest are. Its like some mash up of marble and starlight. Has its moments but i definitely wouldnt replay it, its a flyover level. The only content worth playing in sonic 1 is starlight and green hill
>>
>>382173239
>playing and discussing mania
>we're the reason boost games exist

you need a lay down gramps?
>>
>>382173328
We both know the Forces trailer gave you a chub.
>>
>>382172957
>not him
Surely you aren't
>labyrinth is a shit zone, scrapbrain is sub par, spring yard is shit
Oh wait...yes you are
Fuck off and git gud you scumbag
>>
>>382173239
Boost haters are even more pathetic than classic purist autists. Everyone woh has claimed to hate boost dies a bunch, has nothing but tilted E ranks all over the levels, and has the worst times in existence. The epitome of "git gud"
>>
>>382145797
Forces will be the laughingstock of Sonic games (or at least very close to the likes of 06 and Rise of Lyric) while Mania will be a quality Sonic experience, but Forces will sell better due to how much it's pandering to the autistic fanbase.
>>
>>382173187
>star light is the best zone in sonic 1
No it really fucking isn't
Spring Yard is way better than that shit
>>
>>382173423
It did make me feel something, it made me want jump off a tall building and plummet to my death at the realization that modern sonic will never leave this god damn boost gameplay

>>382173432
don't use memes you don't understand like git gud gramps, you're doing it wrong

>Forces will be the laughingstock of Sonic games

oh please

Worst case scenario is that it's another LW-tier dud. Nothing great, but not blunder of the millennium either.
>>
Sonic 1 has the best level design of the classic games. 2 and 3&K were better games overall but the level designs were streamlined and casualized for kids who couldn't beat the original.
>>
>>382173434
OH WOW IT'S SO FUCKING CHALLENGING TO HOLD A BOOST BUTTON AND OCCASIONALLY SIDE STEP, DRIFT AND HOMING ATTACK
SO FUCKING HARD

Give me a break you fucking baby.
>>
>>382173523
By using Generations as it's base, there is absolutely no way it will be as bad as 06 or Boom. At worst it'll be Unleashed/Colors tier mediocre.
>>

>Forces will sell better due to how much it's pandering to the autistic fanbase.
Stop it with this concern shilling already
>>
>>382173763
>sonic 1
>better than 2 or 3 in any department

this is just getting silly

>>382173832
make a new thread and post your times then. particularly holoska, eggmanland, shamar, and empire city?

*Second best
3&K has by far the best and it definitely ain't casualized at all. Has platforming just as good as Sonic 1's.
>>
>>382173434
It's funny because I cam guarantee all of the Sonic 1 haters can't get past the Labyrinth Zone boss or any of Scrap Brain Zone without level select.
>>
>>382151568

i Kind of wish i wasn't following this at E3 or whenever this section was revealed, because this boss would have been a fucking stellar reveal if i encountered it in the actual game first.

not him, is this concern shilling a meme.. or? If you actually think a 2d platformer with no physical release will beat a physical release triple aa sonic game you're being silly, anon.
>>
>>382173951
1 is far better and far more polished than 2 but it's definitely not as good as 3&K. 3K is one step above.
