Pffff. Right. If the next Anniversary game is slated for 2016 expect them to start work, and I mean the actual very beginnings of making a game, in April 2016 or something like that and it to get a holiday release. This is Sega and Sonic Team we're talking about. People are going to buy it anyway so why bother getting employs to work more than needed? You know they're required to pay them for that? Shit's expensive.

>>123866247
Yeah, Knuckles was much better off as a supermutant who dates his cousin while all his old relatives spy on him and do his job for him, fans of the Sonic series must really look forward to that when they play the games and want to see more content. Tails being a war orphan/son of alien-abducted revolutionary parents who doesn't understand tech and can't pronounce long words is great, especially when he's screaming at Sonic for being a horndog and macking on the much-older girl he's lusting after. Totally true to the kid genius of the lighthearted action-adventure series it's based on.
>>
>>123866247
It's a good thing that it's still doing its own thing then and just using Unleashed as an excuse to worldbuild then
>>
>>123866247
If you're not interested in the series in the first place then why do you care? It's not like the five secret factions of echidnas (who are sometimes Nazis and sometimes Jews) who fight the military dingoes (also sometimes Nazis/sometimes Jews) was actually good, deep storytelling, and it sure as fuck didn't build on what was there.
>>
>>123866247
So what do you actually want? The characters to NOT be themselves? For a tie-in comic to not remotely resemble the series it's supposed to promote? I never understand this kind of thing. Sonic is a cool dude who goes fast and beats up robots in cute adventures. If you don't enjoy that then what are you here for?

>>123866752
They should just stop including the old stuff, it's obvious at this point that people are going to vote Lien-Da just because people reacted to it. And who seriously gives two shits about a rejected Thundercat like Razorklaw.
>>
>>123866247
I'm still a bit mixed on that. On one hand, there are some really neat pre-reboot concepts and storylines that had nothing to do with the games yet were still interesting in their own right and made them unique. But for every one of those ideas,there were like 15 ideas that were just "What the fuck were they thinking, no seriously, who thought this was a good idea". Besides, I'm looking forward to LW for one reason and one reason only: To pretty much shit all over Pontaff by showing how a writer who actually understands how to write would do that plot.

>>123867627
>Here's the thing, the first Egg Boss poll I did had T-bolt and Cassia win by a landslide.

That's what I'm saying, it's practically obligatory for people to vote Lien-Da now because other people complained it made no sense. Having characters with personalities or interesting stories or designs that aren't "modified Knuckles" tends to help how likable they are too.
>>
>>123868207
I'd like to think that the whole discussion we had about her when that poll was up helped things too, since she became fresh on people's minds. It could also be that a different set of people took the poll than the last one.

There's gotta be at least some truth to this post. She only ever re-appeared and got tied in with Kragok and Julie-Su because kids liked her (entirely because she gave them boners, but still). Then under Ian her popularity swelled immensely. Ken's leeching off that popularity as we speak, treating her like an extremely important character despite barely even figuring into his work. She's got some form of popularity and pull with fans, whether it's well deserved or not.

The thing is, that episode is an exception. It's got the least amount of romance/romantic subtext of any of the shows besides Underground. Even then, the show's got the most consistently high quality out of any of them. Give it a shot, a link to all the episodes is in the OP, and you can find them all on Youtube. As for Shattered Crystal, it's completely different than Rise of Lyric. It's more of a metroidvania than anything
Also here's some of the better episodes

>>123889042
Maybe it'd be bad PR for the Guardian's wife to disown the hottest 60+ year old piece of ass on the planet.

One of the very few potentially fun elements of MXYL/TLSC is the chance to play with Lara and Lien-Da having a strange, strained Aunt/Niece relationship in a non-combat environment. The sheer absurdity of them living in peace writes itself. MXYL didn't get into that at all and Penders sure as fuck won't do it well now if he even bothers.
>>
Figured I might as well post this again, since there was some discussion about the Penders lawsuits last thread that I missed. Good summary of the whole debacle and events preceding it.

Hello /sthg/, Today i wanted to try out something to liven up the threads a bit, if it doesn't go well, you won't hear from me again, i can promise you that.

I Can only describe this as being a "roll and decide" game. Something similar to "Lego Quest" if you've every heard of it.

Your character is a freedom fighter, their mission has sent them to the outskirts of Holoska, where their objective is to shut down what remains of an Empire Operation, however, The task will not be an easy one, as one of the few remaining capsules is under guard by a trio of Egg-Fighter models, one with a sword, one with a shield, and one with a hover unit.

Your objective is to take out what remains of the Egg-Fighters, and release the capsule before an Empire dropship arrives to collect it.

In the games, I'm fine with him having blue eyes. The red and black thing is a western invention, and has no precedent in the games.

In the cross-continuity amalgamation of the comics though, I love the Western eyes. It's a fun little touch that ties to the comics' roots and make Eggman particularly creepy when he needs to be.

I hope you see this even though the response late. When i applied to paul told me that if i wanted to work on sonic i should be submitting portfolio pages on sonic possibly redrawing old issues (which i had done, i was concerned with not having enough variety) he said that 5-6 continous pages of one story was enough and to focus on what you want to be,penciler, colorist, inker and dont multitask. This worked for me. Happy to answer in more detail if need be. No one should be left out in the dark when it comes to this sort of thing. I intend to change that whenever i get a chance.

Because it's a terrible show.

Half of the core cast is ignored in all but one or two episodes, annoying/boring characters are constantly introduced because the writers can't hold more than a handful of episodes with just the protagonists, it can't decide if it wants to be adventurous or slapstick at any one time and fails at both, it's just awful.

Yeah Broski, Rotor, Bunnie and Tails totally mattered, it wasn't just Sonic and Sally guest starring Rob Schneider as Antoine Depardieu, no sir.

And damn, don't get me started on how lovable and worth watching Ari, Griff, Big Purple Environmentalist Kraken Monster, and the iconic Lazaar's Guardian. What fucking captivating characters.

>playing roles in almost every episode
That's Sonic, Sally and Antoine.

Bunnie appears sporadically and functions almost exclusively as a sounding board for Sonic/Sally. Her character lacks agency and she doesn't even do anything Antoine and Rotor couldn't very often when she does anything other than stand and talk.

Tails is missing from half of Season 1 for no reason.

>More characters = better
How retarded are you? SatAM is jam-packed with one note characters that add fucking nothing to the story who are supposed to be taken seriously. AoStH is a mediocre comedy show and it STILL understood the basics of character building better than SatAM. Because of the cast's small size, their relations with each other are more pronounced and there are more opportunities for them to get focus. Tails has a handful of good episodes in AoStH BECAUSE it's just him and Sonic.

Having the same basic plot rehashed for the high majority of episodes is not that. And Tails getting a handful of episodes out of 60+ when he's one of 6 or so characters in the show is not something to be impressed with. If you're actually using AoStH as an example of understanding character building better than Satam, then you're braindead. AoStH was about as one-note and cliche as a cartoon could get barring certain multi-part episodes.

Well to be fair, Sonic and Tails interact a hell of a lot more in AoStH. As well as having the benefit of Sonic not being an abrasive dick to him most of the time. Not that he is in SatAM, but I'm amaze that he's supposed to be friends with the other Freedom Fighters when he's such a tool.

Considering they're the only 2 real protags in the show, they had better otherwise the show would be better off not existing. Even then most of their interaction was Tails getting into trouble or being Sonic's echo aka generic sidekick.

>>123915935
>It doesn't count if it's formulaic and only a small percentage.
SatAM is paint-by-numbers as well. It's the same as DiC's other action-adventure shows, like Double Dragon. And the volume doesn't really matter when a show completely unfocused on character building gives more focus to each member of its core cast and several recurring characters than the character focused adventure show.

Like shit, by your logic the Knuckles series did a better job with its characters than Gallagher and DeCesare did in StH. Ken had fewer issues, his stories weren't gag strips, his cast was bigger and he was more dramatic! That means he was better, right?
>>
>>123916319
Which is still better than Sonic being a nonstop cunt, Sally sassing him and expositing, and Antoine being le whacky french fuckup.

Anon you were responding to, thanks Abt! This really helps. I noticed archie have a tendency sometimes to use a layout artist and then someone else to finish up, so for example if I was weak at page layouts theoretically I could use someone else's until I got the archie feel, which seems like a really cool thing of them to do if that's the case. How does that situation work, is there someone who basically handles the action and pacing of the series and pass the thumbs onto a penciler? Or if you're experienced enough they let you do your own layouts?

But any kind of response was really helpful, even just approaching the industry is a little daunting despite training under some pros I've no idea how to navigate approaching apart from just cold emailing submissions. I'll make sure to focus on something, at this point I can't decide if penciler or inker, but I'm leaning towards pencils. How is the artwork generally submitted, ie could I be a penciler if I submitted all my work digitally and used something like photoshop? I assume the inker is going to be using a digital platform anyway? Or does it depend on teams/setups?

When it came to your page redraws did you literally redo the pages in your own style to show what a finished pencils would look like using someone elses layouts or did you restructure the page layouts too?

I'm really serious about doing something with my art and I'm getting to the point where I'm actually considering submitting to places, and I've always been a big fan of the archie action line, sonic especially/obviously (initially I was hoping to a page of off panels with my portfolio just for fun). While I'm training on Bristol boards and Cintiqs I wanna have a goal so I think a submission to archie would be a good thing to aim for (my big thing last year was getting a self owned story pitch into the big Oni Press submissions window)

tl;dr apologies for the deluge of questions but thanks for answering the first ones!

If you're going about it proportionately, sure.
It's the opposite if we look at it as characters built in general. And only in a little over a third of the episodes.
>>123916702
>more false shit
>Funny how something generic can be better sometimes, isn't it?
Except AoStH was the lesser show in this case.
Anyways, I have better things to do than deal with the delusions of AoStH dickriders. It's pointless and far too time consuming to try and talk sense into those that don't want to listen.

Don't try and pretend that Sally wasn't a massive bitch throughout SatAM or that Antoine wasn't bad comedic relief.

Different anon and disregarding AoStH a bit, but I've hated that Sally replaced Tails as Sonic's "main hang out buddy" which was contradictory to the games. Even worse was that he was useless. Also the other SatAM characters were either wasted potential or down right obnoxious on the show. They were better utilized in the comics.

With one exception: Dulcy. But that may change once 281 hits. And to be fair, nobody's ever used Dulcy correctly. I doubt that she can without drastically changing her, but we'll see

This was back when all we had were one or two games to base the characters on and Tails didn't have that mechanical genius trait yet. All we really had for him was using his tails to fly, go fast, and he could fly a plane.

I don't really see much of a change. He's still a backstabbing cowardly lackey, and that likely hasn't changed in the reboot (And by likely I mean 100% since he planned to use the Master Emerald to betray GUN and take over the world, and his origin story has him outright lying about his role in things) I love him as well though.

There was probably a bit more than that.

I'm assuming that there were multiple bibles about Sonic character general traits and to the addition that there were multiple writers on AoStH, maybe a few understood that Tails was supposed to be a tech genius. I mean they could have easily written story lines of Sonic inventing shit but they used Tails as if they knew something already.

No idea since I've never had to work over layouts that weren't my own. I'd contact jon gray over twitter and ask him where to submit to. I did mine in person at NYCC in 2013 to paul.

You can try submitting via the fan art/mail address with the subject line saying something like "Attn Vin Lovello" (current editor).

Most of Archie's stuff is actually done physically (some of Mega Man was digital pencils/inks). The two main inkers for Sonic do it all by hand.

Something to consider if your general flexibility in terms of being told what to draw, and make sure you can work with deadlines. I know those sound obvious but a lot of people overlook them when applying.

Good luck!

Ian's still got the overarching story though, so even if the details for certain character are delegated to other writers (e.g. Aleah has the deer sisters, Evan is seemingly in charge of Silver), major events with them will still have to fall within the confines of his Master Plan.

So, when the happenings happen, we can blame Aleah and Ian.

Conversation starter, which mass-production model worked the best for Robotnik/Eggman? The Swat Bots? Eggpawns? Egg-Swats?

Does the leader of the MFF even have to be royalty? I mean at most I'd just have a character that had a royal title as a nickname for whatever reason. We already have a royal FF with Sally. Kinda feel like a retread to me.

>>123933869

Amy? She's Rob O's cousin, and her STC counterpart is an archer.

If it's not the current universe, then Rob O should be able to fill the slot. But in case he can't, do what >>123934527 said and mix it up. My suggestion is a bit weird and would require a massive timeskip, but fuck it. Grown up Lil' John (Rob O's kid)

Said it before, and I'll say it again. Warpnik could totally work as an extradimensional villain a la Mr Mxyzptlk who works on a completely different set of laws and logic than the main cast.
>>
>>123916717
I mean the update fucked the game in every single regard, it cant get that much worse now. Maybe they'll take away the concept of free lives altogether now and make it so once you use up your initial 5 lives they dont respawn and you have to buy every single life now. And then also make it so if you had more than 5 before the patch reduce it to 5.
>>
>>123939707
I've seen it suggested Warpnik take the place of Feist as the self-proclaimed ruler of the Special Zone. I'd be down with that.
>>
>>123940008
What if they made it where you had to find extra lives while running? And I think the reason why they put the spiked walls there is because we have to save our wisp powers and use it on them. That's what I saw on an article I think and I forgot which it was.
>>

Before I proceed I gotta ask, are you seriously really for real for real gonna defend unavoidable spike walls in an "endless" runner?
>>
>>123940302
Both ideas are good, but at the end of the day, Warpnik should be the kind of character that leaves the heroes, villains, and even the reader just plain uncomfortable, confused, and almost feeling violated by the time he leaves,.

Honestly, the end result of Scourge's "master plan" would've probably fucked him over to the point where it's practically unfixable. Scourge isn't exactly the sharpest knife in the knife drawer, and when half your team is mercenaries who would betray you if they got paid enough, you're betraying the guy who's partially responsible for your freedom in the first place and is incredibly fucking powerful and not to be messed with (And Fiona even goes out of her way to point this out). Now it'd be true that he'd have a better shot at beating the FFs at the time this arc took place, but Scourge wouldn't exactly know that (Guy hasn't been on Mobius since pre-#200)

There's also the fact that if Sonic happened to have trouble with Scourge's crew, he could just go to Moebius and ask the Suppression Squad for help, since they're still not fond of Scourge and would delight in pushing his shit in (Wouldn't be the first time they tried to beat his ass up, and Sonic+the FFs have gotten their help before, and Scourge doesn't have immediate access to his trump card this time)

>>
>>123973973
>The cassia vs Bunnie thing was okay, but not as good as it could be,
Here's the thing about that fight. I was hoping it'd be longer at first, but then I looked at it again, and what we got turned out to be more interesting for both characters. I do chalk some of the lack of "conflict" up to the writing, but the fact that each story only has 10 pages to tell their story does hurt the pacing

There is a stark difference between Cassia and someone like Finitevus. From the moment she appeared, Cassia was supposed to be likeable, and Bunnie is generally compassionate, even towards enemies, so it makes sense. But I would like another Knux vs Fini scenario. Maybe next time Eclipse shows up. Or Tundra. Or Antoine possibly encountering Jetstream Coyote (That's what I'm calling that yellow coyote/fox egg boss until we get a name) Or whenever Phage shows up again after she completely disappeared (I should probably ask Ian about when we'll see her again).

Just this, and it's again part of an ensemble. Besides, it totally fits the theme of the reboot with all of the FFs getting their own rivals/counterparts (Sally-Clove, Nicole-Phage, Bunnie-Cassia, and Rotor-Tundra. All that's needed is Antoine. And that idea that one anon had about the coyote being a "cultured" coward really stuck out to me)

True, and I agree. I fucking love Cassie. I jus hate that when there are loveable villains who encounter loveable heroes. It makes me feel weird, and doesn't sate my desire for action.
>>
>>123975293
Speaking of counterparts, since Shadow has Eclipse now. Do you think the other members of Team Dark could do with some rivals? Not necessarily Egg Bosses mind you. Having more factions does open up possibilities.

>>
>>123975674
Tails will get Wendy/Witchcart, and Sonic's is Eggman.
>>
>>123975674
Bingo. I was more referring to the SaTAM FFs, but your post only backs up my point.
Actually, in that case, I'd say that Wave, Kukku, and maybe Wendy (I haven't seen enough of her to say for sure. I know about Sky Patrol, but we don't know exactly how much was changed about her backstory and such) are Tails' rivals
>>123975786

That could be fun. Give Rouge a cat, or cat themed rival (Jewel thief vs Cat burglar). Not sure about Omega, but that could be fun too

UH EXCUSE ME
any and all cat characters are a concept (c) 2015 Ken Penders and will need to be approved by him to make sure they aren't interfering with any of the epic story he is telling in THE LARA-SU CHRONICLES

None taken. That was a pretty fun arc (Outside of Julie Su, but hey, when is she ever fun?)
>>
>>123976305
Did Ian do his best with Julie Su or is it generally agreed that she was a failure all around?
>>
>>123976639
Bit of column A, bit of column B. He really did try to make her her own character, but since her entire role was "Knuckles' love interest" and she was basically a broken character from the start, there wasn't much he (Or anyone for that matter) could do to make her interesting without doing more mindwipes and retcons
>>
>>123976639
I think he did do his best but he didn't get that many chances to do stuff with her.
>>
>>123975969
> Wendy/Witchcart

They aren't Eggman team through.
>>
>>123976639
Ian did his best, but he had a lot of trouble with using a character who honestly just sucks. Julie-Su has such a contrived, confusing backstory and a bunch of dumb history in general that it's almost impossible to write her as anything other than "generic badass gungirl who also loves a boy."
>>
>>123976639
What do we even really know about her? like personality or anything? All I know is that she's just "there". What does she like to eat? hobbies? ANYTHING? All I know is she has shitty fashion taste.
>>
>>123976797
That was never stated as a qualifying factor for a rival, nor was it implied.

>>123977027

>hobbies?

Being mindwiped.
>>
>>123976865
>it's almost impossible to write her as anything other than "generic badass gungirl who also loves a boy."
which explains why she either showed up either being generically badass with her gun or getting in fights with Rouge over Knuckles
>>
I always thought Julie-Su would have been interesting if it was revealed she had started mindwiping herself every time she had something go badly in her life, to the point where she was just wiping out a crummy day just because she could.
>>
>>123976639

Julie Su was a fun character. I sincerely think most of the hate was because she is associated with the other enchiladas.
>>
>>123977489
Finitevus was the only fun/good enchilada. I wish we had another echidna enemy but it'll never happen now.
>>
>>123977427
that's either really funny or really dark
I'm not sure which
>>
>>123976781
It also didn't help that the moment Rouge showed up, she had far more interesting chemistry with Knuckles than Julie ever did, and without the contrived bullshit to boot

>>123977489
But what was her personality? She started off literally yelling and snapping at everyone for pretty much no reason other than calling them sexist (offer to help her? Sexist! Suggest a plan? Sexist!), then she just randomly stopped doing that, then I guess she transfers that hate to other girls ("floozies") and she goes on a psycho rampage when Knuckles runs off one day without saying where he was going, and then we learn that she only has memories of the last three or four years of her life but she apparently never noticed because there's never any talk about it, and when someone brings up all the insane shit in her past, there is zero reflection on her part about it, it doesn't affect her at all.
>>
>>123978382
Her personality is whatever Lord Penders says it is. Regardless of whether or not she actually displays any of it.
>>
>>123978382

I liked her as Knuckles over zealous girlfriend.
>>
>>123977650
Gala-na as the bewitching sadist?

At first it was liking Knuckles because "soul touch lol" and not liking that she liked Knuckles. Then it was just nothing really.
>>
>>123978784
That's not a personality. That's shitty deviantart tier shipping
>>
>>123979278
Explain the difference to Ken. I'll wait for you to get through to him.
>>
>>123979278
Exactly. And it's not even like she played off Knuckles well in any way. Any meaningful chemistry or development she could've had with Knuckles was ruined by her being generic as fuck and her infinite mindwipes. Relic has been around not even a tenth as long as Julie Su has and her dynamic with Knuckles is far more interesting, and she actually has a well defined personality
>>
>>123978749
The only noteworthy thing gala-na ever did was switch her fur colors on and off like a lite brite.
>>
>>123978749
I felt like Gala-na was really fucking underused. She appeared benevolent but had a very controlling side. The comic kind of brushed that aside.
>>
>>123979428
Is Shade any better than Julie-Su? Not that it matters. We'll never see her ever again either thanks to Penders.
>>
>>123979769
I didn't get far enough in Chronicles to see her (That battle system is atrocious and the music is even worse)
>>123976865
I think towards the end he said "fuck it" and did what any sane writer would've done. Ditch Julie Su and her boring bullshit and shift attention to her far more interesting sister

If that was the case I wouldn't like Dimitri, Finitevus or Lien-Da and I wouldn't think Remington had potential.

Julie's problem is that she is canonically devoid of substance. Her entire life up to meeting Knuckles was erased from her mind and she was firmly established as being "tough" and single-minded obsessed with Knuckles and nothing else. There's no backstory to work with, there's no role she plays, she isn't a blank slate so you can't make shit up yet there's nothing relatable about her. She's a dead end character. At the very fucking least you can DESCRIBE Remington as a character.

I sure as fuck can't, but then again it's been a while since I've read anything with him in it that wasn't written by Penders (Who forgot to give him a personality. If ti was there, I couldn't see it)
>>
>>123986384
>>123985273
Also you perfectly summed why Julie Su was shit. To add onto it, her sole purpose (Being Knuckles' cocksleeve) was shit because she was so boring she didn't play off of anyone in an interesting way. Rouge played off Knuckles in more interesting and fun ways. You could argue that her rivalry with Vector was alright, but Vector carried that because he's entertaining. That backup with Amy was carried entirely by Amy because she was interesting in that. She's just such a boring dead end character that in all honesty, should've been killed off long before she actually was, and I'm usually not a fan of killing off characters. She's just so utterly worthless

He's cautious and skeptical, but a bit naive and a poor leader due to his constant reliance on people he sees as higher figures of authority than him. It's very subtle, to the point I doubt it was intentional, but it's there even in Ken's stories. Karl and Ian particularly homed in on the last one (Remy is reduced to blind faith and worship of Knuckles, brainwashed Remy is too incompetent to take charge, can't even overthrow Lien-Da properly, and follows FINITEVUS'S advice).

They'll likely be used better in the inevitable Lost World arc, since they'll actually be able to get focus and not just be lackeys (Though it really does depend on if Ian gets to expand upon them and the Lost Hex as a whole).

Archie doesn't want any trouble, which is sad.

The guy's a time bomb waiting to happen. If it wasn't for SEGA and Archie's top brass being short-sighted cunts, things would be a lot different. They're the big company with the vast resources, why are they letting some fucking peon writer, who hasn't put out a project in literally a decade, bully them around legally?

If someone at SEGA and Archie grew some balls in the past 5 years, this whole Penders bullshit would have stopped a long time ago.

>>
>>123997726
I'm still baffled by the fact that if there never was a contract, then why did he wait 6 years to start shit about it. Perhaps it was desperation when he realized that the comic didn't need him to survive and that deep down, he knows that Ian's more liked than he is (He still buys the comics apparently, even though he's gone on record as saying he never read Ian's run) and he knows that he'll forever remembered as the man that almost ruined the Sonic comics

There was a contract, but it was destroyed in a flood. Archie didn't think to have him sign a new one, thinking a photocopy would be enough - which is idiotic.

Ken was let go (or left on his own, depending on who you want to believe) and tried to get The Lost Ones and The Republic up and running. They both failed miserably.

Somebody smarter must have pointed out the loophole he could exploit so he could cash in on the only successful thing he's done. Except Ken thinks his time on Sonic was successful BECAUSE of him, when it was in SPITE of him. Sonic sells because it's Sonic, not because of him.

Ken always said that he chose to leave, because he wanted to work on his own projects. Surely it had nothing to do with there being an editor who was trying to make him actually write about the series' own characters.
>>
>>123999996
I don't remember the source, but this was back when the court case was in full swing. First Ken said there was no contract. When Archie said they had the copy, Ken claimed the signature was forged.

I think it was a fire, actually. Also, it's way more stupid for him to claim no contract than to say it was lost. You don't work with someone for as long as Archie worked with Penders and not have a contract. High schoolers working at McDonalds have contracts.

>>123997726
>If someone at SEGA and Archie grew some balls in the past 5 years, this whole Penders bullshit would have stopped a long time ago.

And it could've been finished right away if SEGA cared enough to send one of their lawyers. All they needed to do was file an amicus brief or enter as an intervention to point out that, since Sonic is a licensed series, everything related to it belongs to SEGA regardless. But they just told Archie's lawyers to deal with it. It really doesn't matter to SoJ if the Pendering occured or not. As long as the comic sells it promotes Sonic, which is all it's for.

I like to think it was Tikal who taught Sonic how to use chaos powers to go fast.

at least in adventure 1 sure it was.
>>
>>124009174
That doesn't make sense though, as Sonic only met Tikal in SA1, and if you wanna say it's from the master emerald, the first time he was near the thing was in Sonic 3&K. I've always assumed Sonic was just naturally fast

Is he from the future or an alternate dimension? Or both? I remember he was from Blaze's dimension in Rush, but apparently Rivals says he's from the future
>>
>>124009510
Well if it's under her fur than most would not be able to see it, doesn't matter how little clothing she wears.
>>
>>124009931
IIRC, Sega finally clarified that he's from the future, and his appearances in Rush were just him dimension-hopping in addition to time-traveling.

>>124008954
Elias's wasn't. Of course his plot-relevant birthmark disappeared right after it wasn't needed.
>>
>>124009931
In Rush he did call Blaze's world "My World" but, and as bullshit as this excuse is, you could always write it off and him seeing everything as belonging to him, he just hasn't conquered it yet.

I mean Nega is supposed to be even crazier and more vicious than Eggman.
>>
>>124010354
>I mean Nega is supposed to be even crazier and more vicious than Eggman.
I really wish his design reflected that instead of being photonegative Eggman. I was thinking you could have him be more robotic, crazier looking, or just something that screams "This guy means fucking business and is Eggman but more evil"
>>
>>124010354
Plus he might've not wanted to reveal to Eggman that he's from the future. He isn't too fond of his family history in Rush. Could also be that he was stuck in Blaze's dimension for a while, and decided to adopt it as his world, which would also fit with your idea.
>>
>>124010868
>He isn't too fond of his family history in Rush.

Didn't he once threaten to kill Eggman?

>>
>>124010354
>>124010147
>>124009931
Rush and Rush Adventure already have an easy built-in explanation because part of the lore behind Blaze's world is that: a) it and Sonic's world are connected more than any other alternate universe is, b) the Power of the Stars mediates the existence of alternate dimensions and could cause Sonic and Blaze's world to merge, and c) the Jeweled Scepter can control the Power of the Stars and is located in Blaze's world. So the easy lore-accurate answer is that Sonic and Blaze's worlds merge at some unspecified point in the future, and that Nega is from that merged future, thus he's technically from both dimensions.
>>
>>124011018
>>124011134
Yes, except I meant in Rivals. Also, I haven't played Rivals, but as far as I know they don't actually say he's Eggman's direct descendant, just that he's a Robotnik, and the family name was tarnished by Eggman getting beat all the time. So killing him wouldn't necessarily erase Nega.

That's a pretty irresponsible decision from Sega, seeing as when it comes down to it that's their brand in danger of being hurt. If Disney or Nintendo's properties were the ones being disputed, Penders would've been legally suffocated a long time ago.

Then again, Sega has made nothing but irresponsible decisions since its inception.

A lot of people don't realize the context of what was going on at SEGA at the time.

They were in the middle of firing their entire localization team and doing due-diligence before the Atlus buy-over. Their lawyers were extremely busy quite frankly.

That's a bluff, because anyone with a brain knows that being associated with that twat damages their reputation by proxy. He wants to appear as someone who should be taken seriously. He also knows that, by waving the banner of "creator's rights", he can get some naive fools on his side (When people call him out on his shit, he jsut goes "I GUESS YOU AREN'T FOR CREATORS HAVING RIGHTS ThEN"

He always claims people like Scott Shaw! and other former staff are on his side in claiming ownership of their work on the comics. But even if Shaw! or Bollers or whoever were to try and go after royalties or character rights they certainly wouldn't do it with Penders.

>>124019729
Because this is one better

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=96QUv-IU-B0

>>124019962
The thing about Shaw! is that he did claim copyright on his work on the original miniseries. In 2012. And as for Bollers, he hasn't said anything about Sonic for years (Because he's actually moved on and done things with himself. The only tweet he's done about Sonic is responding to a fan asking about his plans. Remember, he didn't know that his characters were removed) Penders claims he has 40+ people on his side, but how many of them (If they exist) will abandon him when they see his bizarre behavior and calling colorists, pencillers, and inkers "Not creators"

>>124020287

It's no excuse, and they definitely fucked up, but yeah, that's why a lot of things that happened at SEGA happened the way it did.

>Jesus, this is why Yakuza 5 not getting translated was a thing I assume?

Do you remember in like 2010 or 2011, SEGA announced that they're only focusing on 5 brands from now on in the U.S.? That's because they were about to fire their entire localization team, and could ONLY focus on those games. They fired them in 2011 and bought ATLUS in 2012. The purchase of ATLUS was so fast, they obviously had a purchase in mind and the funds at the ready when they made it. What I think happened was, XSEED was teetering at the time, and they were waiting for XSEED to fall into bankruptcy. They didn't, and instead, ATLUS surprise fell into financial peril, and SEGA bailed them out, getting a much higher quality studio for less money.

They did that in 2012. They JUST finished the integration of ATLUS this past summer with the final SEGA restructurings.

And remember that firing of 300 people in the publishing end of SEGA? That was the skeleton crew at SoA that was left after the localization crew got fired. Those people were in charge of Sonic Boom and Aliens:CM. If you wonder why those people did bad jobs at managing the companies set to make those games, realize that all those people probably knew they were going to be fired in 2012, and had limped on with the company until that firing.

Pretty sure that's still not happening.
>>
>>124021446
Just play Sonic 3 Complete on an emulator.
>>
>>124021350

Also, just to add on, it's really shitty for a company to basically tell people "hey, in 2 years, you're probably all going to be fired", but that's the strategy SEGA went with. And if you want shitty workmanship, tell someone they have no future at the company. If you read the job reviews from people who worked at SEGA for the past 5 years, all of them say "There's 0 job security at SoA." because everyone there was expendable until ATLUS came in.

And you know what, it's good that they got rid of those fucks. They were cancer to SEGA and nothing more. Everyone good at SoA left when the dreamcast dropped out of the market in 2001 and went to either Microsoft or Sony. The rest was the dregs, and they brought SEGA down pretty hard along with SoJ's bad management.

Now, after the restructurings, we have a brand new CEO with an entirely revitalized SEGA, who lends his background to both the U.S. and Japan, and is a massive 90s SEGAfag....I think the future is bright.

>>124021282

Probably, not. You're going to see SEGA do some legal stuff before any of that works out.

It's not happening. The music is in a serious legal gray area.

The issue is that it's a remake. The Sonic CD remake had the vocals from You Can Do Anything taken out, and since the music was replaced in the Sonic & Knuckles collection all the way back in 1997 why do you think Sega is hesitant to remake S3&K now?

They'd have to replace the music again, which is more work to convert it to Genesis sound, furthermore it's disingenuous to the original game's soundtrack, and the backlash would be massive seeing as Ice Cap is one of the most remixed video game tracks in existence.
>>
>>124021905
I think at this point the only SoA employee from before the restructuring left is Aaron Webber.

So yeah, we're good.
>>
Why are there so many legal problems with Sonic?
>>
>>124022356

In terms of public facing, yeah. And he got hired back on after the ATLUS restructurings happened.

I can't think of anyone who's left off the top of my head. Can anyone else?
>>
>>124022256
Dare I ask how much they owe anyway?
>>
>>124022423

Because they've half-assed their legal responsibilities like a lot of companies from the 80s and 90s and we're in a period of legal structuralism, especially in copyright and trademark. There's a lot of entertainment companies going through this right now. Almost the entire Music and Film industry is having problems.
>>
>>124022537

They owe nothing. They have the assignments for the games in question free and clear.

The problem is, they only got the assignments for those games in that context/release. They never got the assignments to the music in perpetuity to use in all forms, both known and unknown.

This has been a HUGE problem for the music industry as of late, with the advent of MP3 and digital music.

Also, I probably should have said before, but legal anon here.

Well, I guess the first thing to realize is that SEGA in the U.S. doesn't have any real attorneys that I know of. They use a firm named Fenwick and West, which are premiere IP attorneys and therefore extremely expensive.

If money was no object, they would have stepped in on day one and claimed that all works created based on the contract between Archie and SEGA are derivative works.

A lot of people don't realize that Archie sued Penders for copyright infringement, not the other way around. Penders was sending off Copyright applications to the copyright offices. He owns the copyright to a ton of stories and a few characters, mostly because the copyright office doesn't do it's own research. It's merely a database. So if you claim yourself as the owner of a copyright, you're the owner according to the copyright office until someone complains. Archie was forced into the lawsuit that way, but SEGA should have stepped up instead. Instead, Penders counter-sues SEGA to goad them on and put a wedge between SEGA and Archie. SEGA requests Archie that they handle it, and the rest, as they say is history.

If SEGA stepped up and claimed ownership to the stories themselves, they would have won and been able to get a summary judgement easily, as the works are clearly derivative works. Sonic appears in most of them. That would be more than enough. The characters would be a bit harder, but they'd probably win based on that. In the worst case, they would have gotten a co-ownership right of the characters, but that's farfetched.

Do you think Metal Sonic should have a little more character than what he already has?

Right now, I perceive Metal Sonic as nothing more than a regular old badnik that almost always loses and barely says/does anything interesting besides half-assedly attack Sonic on occasion and look somewhat menacing.

What if he started talking more, mocking or humiliating his opponents? What if he started questioning the sanity of his master, and/or he defected and set on his own quest? Would he just be another Shadow, or something more entertaining?

To add, a lot of people don't realize that Penders didn't just counter-sue SEGA. Penders sued EA as well. It's a very little talked about point, but it's VERY important. No one likes to be served. Not a person, not a company. So to get served about some sonic game that a subsidiary worked on and didn't even do that well...it's not a happy sight. So SEGA spends the money and represents both themselves and EA, and gets them out of court on the condition of the outcome to the Archie suit.

Now SEGA can't join in with Archie without risking drawing EA back into the lawsuit. If they were ballsy and had the time and money, they'd just tell EA to relax and say that they'd handle it, and take on any monetary risk and legal defense burden.

Ultimately, letting Archie fail in a bad settlement was less unsettling than loosing the possibility of partnering with EA in the future.

I think he could do with a little more snark, but also being a bit more cold blooded. He's one of the few characters that I think that should stick as close to the original version as possible, because Metal Sonic's one of the few characters that the games still get right

Pretty sure SEGA has Ian kinda locked down on what he can do with Metal Sonic and how much of certain things he can do with him like talking. I recall him saying that Metal was going to talk more in SU50, but SEGA said no.

That would work extremely well. Being nothing more than a killing machine (at least, intended to be), he has every right to be as deadpan and serious as possible, moreso than the other serious characters.

While this is true, Penders also started disrupting the comic's shipping by going to distributors and claiming copyrights were being violated, making them delay distribution as a precaution.

I actually didn't know that, but that makes sense.

A good majority of companies don't really manage their IP correctly, so they only get wind of someone who sends in, say, 200 fucking copyright claims like Penders, when the person actually uses them for something.

Metal Sonic really needs to get some sort of victories on his side. Him fighting Sonic is always a guaranteed loss and it's to the point where it isn't that entertaining.

As for more personality, I wouldn't be against it, I wouldn't overdo it, though. Then again, one of my favorites from the comic was a Metal Sonic with a lot of personality and attitude like Sonic.

Have him fight someone else and win. Not only would it show that Metal Sonic's a threat, when Sonic beats him it'll show why he's the main character.

Pretty much. It was really refreshing to see him do some major damage against Shard. Made him a threat and the issue one of my favorites. He needs more things like that, just with less self-destruct.

No matter what, Metal has good music attached to him.
