/sthg/ - Sonic the Hedgehog General

fast

Lets talk about how interesting it was that they didn't even mention or have a slide for Sonic Lost World.

>>135754723
I found that really odd. Not sure if it means something, but I definitely did notice it

I don't understand how any of you can be ok with boom when:
>Amy: sounds like a character off of rugrats
>Sticks: absolute garbage
>Tails: the goggles are cool but the utility belt is stupid, never used
>Knuckles: portrayed as a stereotypical jock
Boom extras (any other character not listed here except maybe that bird guy): cringe worthy
Honestly the only characters that are watchable are sonic and eggman, everyone else is shit

Aaron is so fired.

Kinda interested me that they baited for crowd reactions to the boost gameplay. But I'm looking too much into things.

>>135754796
what was it like anon? I've always wanted to go, and the 25th anniversary seems like it might be SUPER disappointing since it's supposed to be a big deal for the anniversary.

What is all this ''exclusive'' merch bullshit?

>>135755006
Aaron pls

>>135755157
Yeah I really hate what they've done to his personality. Then again I hate it in mainline more because that's the Knuckles I grew to like. I don't care as much for Boom Knuckles since he wa always like that
>>135755201
If they were doing boost, then why skip over Rush? They did Rivals but not Rush

>>135754821
At the very least Aaron sure seemed to enjoy it, gotta suck to be him right now though due to the fan's response.

>>135754723
It hopefully means the style won't be used again. Hell 06 at least got a bait and switch reference.

Lost World was just skipped over like they erased it from history. Granted, they did that to CD too, which I'm salty about.

>>135755363
The panel seemed poorly planned out.

45 minutes was not enough time for what they wanted to cover even with skipping games. Hell, they wanted to fit in Q&As too.

>>135755363
>They did Rivals but not Rush
Granted, that was just to bait the audience out of 06. They could've also used Riders however so I'm not sure if there is any significance behind it.

>>135755765

That event is literally the biggest around. They probably had to pay big bucks just to get that 45 minute spot.

>>135755765
They could've done more if Aaron didn't shoehorn in Big memes every other second.

WHERE WAS NAOTO OSHIMA?!

>>135755765
At the very least they should've scheduled for a longer panel, was really interested in the questions people were gonna ask.

Okay so ive been at work. Is there a repeat stream I can see when I get home later like on YouTube or something?

I wonder if Naka will be going to the event in July. Seems like a waste to get the Japanese guys to fly out for this when they didn't even do much.

Put it on the current engine and drop everything but the basic premise. Build a new game from the ground up.

>>135756358
It'll probably be up somewhere by the end of the day on Youtube. Don't even bother though, it was a complete waste of time

>>135756358
Believe me you didn't miss anything.

>>135754723
I have no idea what to think of this panel. Nothing really makes much sense. I think they just needed an outlet to inform people of the July event.

Also, I can't help but feel they put a lot more emphasis on the classic games than on the rest of the things.

>>135755969
Did they have any food venues? They probably do but I've never been to any so curious.

How long are they going to keep the people waiting? It's what the public demands!

>>135754904
Stay here a while more until things die down a bit, then go back to working on something I'm designing.

>>135756409
>>135756527
I can't understand why they bothered to call in RCS, Pollock, Naka and Iizuka in for a 45 minute panel at a mostly-unknown convention. If they were doing Q&A for most of it, sure, but Aaron blew all of their time on a powerpoint.

>>135756527
It was definitely a weird panel. I feel like with more time it would've been cooler, but it was too rushed.

>Also, I can't help but feel they put a lot more emphasis on the classic games than on the rest of the things.
Probably for time reasons and to talk about the creation of Sonic with Naka. Remember, some classic stuff got skipped as well.

Besides, the crowd was clearly more into Classic Sonic than Modern or Boom Sonic.

>>135757042
You're right, it feels like there should be more to this for everyone to go, unless they are gonna spend a shit ton of time talking to fans at the actual event after the panel.

I just hope they all come to event in July, at least.

>>135756527

that was aaron's poor time management and sloppy work

he never even got time to finish his presentation and over loaded it with memes as well as the viewers having no screen time to hear any of the audience's questions to the panel


everything that stream audience saw could have been conveyed in a twitter post or two if you wanted to split up the event announcement and the game release dates

or just tossed out a youtube video

Sega employee here
Sonic Adventure 3 will be released exclusively on PS4.5 and run at 4k 24fps
PS4 and Xbox One will get ports of Classic Collection and Gems Collection and will run 60fp2s
Wii U will get a port of Shattered Crystal and Fire & Ice but they will still run at the same resolution as the 3DS game
Happy 25th please don't ignore us for Pokemon and Zelda like everyone else.

>>135757042
Even then, I still think they'd need more time, since Naka and Iizuka speak Japanese and need a translator, which takes quite a bit of time for answers.

>>135757629
Wasn't really that bad, just a bit of a letdown. I imagine you're used to that. Also be prepared for Mike's shirt.

>>135757042
This is actually a pretty good point. I can't help but think it wasn't a mistake and something else went on that we missed.

>>135757078
>It was definitely a weird panel. I feel like with more time it would've been cooler, but it was too rushed.
Maybe, but it was still 45 minutes, which is quite a bit. I think this kind of panel would have been better suited for later, when we weren't all distressed over what they might be doing or not doing and when they're doing it.

>>135757834
Pretty sure, it was for a fan Q&A they didn't have time for.

But will it have Knuckles?

>>135758791

>>135758958
Alright fine.

>Love(sic) part 4 was released in June
>So was Sonic Adventure 2

Sonic Adventure 3 confirmed.

Didn't they say they'd have the new game playable at the July event? That could mean we get an announcement earlier than July.

Or he's referring to Boom and we can be sad.

>>135759354
All they said is that if we're looking for an announcement, then we should go to the event

GRAND SLAM

Oh yeah, how did the panel go, is it still on?

>>135757895
>Also be prepared for Mike's shirt.
He didn't have that shirt in the photo they took earlier in the day, I wonder if he put it on purpose for the panel.

>>135759445
We got an announcement for a future event in July that might have an announcement.

>>135759445
Panel ended. We only got 2 things: The release day for Fire and Ice, and that the numbers referred to an event on July 22nd, which may have the game announcement

>>135759543

>>135759014
Yeah, they really have

I don't even know what I want anymore. Just announce something already. These dank memes and cryptic numbers bullshit aren't even fun, they're just downright annoying.

It's like they're trying to stall for time or something, like they don't even have an anniversary game in the works. I hope that's not the case, but it's what I'm thinking at this point.

>>135759445
>Mike shirt is Purple
>So is Big
>Mike isn't the slimmest fellow around thus making him "big"

Big's Big Fishing Adventure 3 confirmed.

I didn't get the feeling RCS enjoyed the panel too much.

>>135759638
To have a highlight reel, you'd need to have highlights. This panel didn't have any.

>>135759638
No, least not yet anyways.

>>135759720
I don't even get why he or most of the people were there. They didn't do much.

>>135759693
>Big's Big Fishing Adventure 3 confirmed
Well there was that amazing trailer for it at the end so yeah, confirmed.

>>135759638

naka took a picture of the audience having a majority vote to liking his box art instead of the NA box art

there were a lot of Big memes, but all the memes were small

>>135758358
They could always have Madeon compose some of the music for the game.

>>135759445
We got standard Sonic history stuff in the form of a rushed powerpoint done like it was a middle school project.

A few questions for Naka and Iizuka. A story from Mike Pollock.

Aaron baited people with chaos for reactions and then said there are no plans for them in the future. Also, pulled a bait n switch with 06.

They skipped a few games, most notably CD, Rush, and Sonic Lost World.

No mention of the comic books at all, even when they were talking about Sonic in other media.

We got an announcement for an event in July.

And finally a Big's Big Fishing Adventure 3 teaser.

>>135759014
It's not possible for that to happen, they must actually be doing nothing or at least not making progress in any particular direction.

So... how bout that Sonic dude? Heard he has an attitude and is really fast.

The presentation was fun, I'm mostly dissapointed by the fact that the QaA session was skipped.

>>135761093
>implying anyone would ask good questions

>>135761315

More memorable to the zone. Though I like the idea that Sonic failed in Sonic CD.

>>135761196
Exactlly.
All those cringe questions and Aaron having to dancing around them and we totally missed out. We got jipped, Aaron knew what he was doing by making the presentation as long as he did.

>>135761291

Pretty much. It was a very rushed history of Sonic sprinkled with some memes.

Well Evan is probably handling Silver from here on out, and Aleah's doing her own thing as well, which will likely be continued after Unleashed is done.

a good RPG similar to paper mario would be fantastic, they could make use of a lot of his old power up and abilities as well as the homing attack that they have an undying boner for

these are the reasons that my sisters played this game, my 14 year old sister STILL plays adventure 2 battle for the chao gardens, this game was originally made a few months she was born and she's still playing it, my older younger sister introduced it to her 6 year old daughter and she's loving it

why was this removed? collectables have always been a great way to increase playability
virtual pets have always been fucking cool and always appealed to girls

WHY were chao removed? I know some purists hate it because it's not running and go fast I thoroughly enjoyed it

>>135770363
The fans themselves wanted a Sonic game that was darker and had weapons, and Shadow was popular. So they made a Shadow game that was darker and had weapons because they at least had the sense to realize that Sonic himself using realish firearms was dumb.

It's really easy to say "Nobody wanted this!" when at the time a lot of people wanted it.

>>135770556

>That and it actually made Adventure 2's story make more sense somehow.
Actually it made it make less sense, and a lot of that is because of the GUN Commander being a thing. His entire character makes no goddamn sense whatsoever. Why did he blame Shadow for Maria's death when he CLEARLY say that he was in stasis with this big alien motherfucker right next to him? Why didn't he die with the rest of the staff not named Gerald when GUN raided the ARK? Why is he the fucking COMMANDER OF GUN?
>>135771589

I'd be down for it. As for the guns, those were the best part of the gameplay to be honest

Y'all were expecting Nack but I'm not stupid enough to hang with a mercenary/assassin, come on.

>>135771893
Yeah. Honestly, I think the main reason I dislike SHTH is because of what it did to Shadow's character, and how it pretty much cemented him as "edgy" in the eyes of most people, and ruined whatever characterization he had in SA2 and heroes to some extent. Honestly, I love how he is portrayed in the comics (Ian Pre-Reboot and Post Reboot).

To add to the commander thing, if he was the commander of GUN around the time the events of SA2 happened, then why did GUN decide to arrest Sonic? He of all people is fully aware about who and what Shadow is. Unless GUN wanted to keep Shadow a secret and decided to use Sonic as a scapegoat, which is pretty fucked up.

>>135773070
Meh.

>>135771456
Knuckles because he has, knuckles down, the best personality and appearance

>>135773361
>then why did GUN decide to arrest Sonic?
I assume that was to cover up the existence of Shadow, but that raises the question of if the Commander actually knows about Shadow and the ARK incident, then why does he blame him for Maria's death in Shadow?
Also I agree, I love Shadow in the comics, and a large part of that is him being with Rouge and Omega so often, as his interactions with them are pretty well thought out and interesting and they feel like a family.

I am the only one who feel offended for 2006 not having a mention? I mean, even if they wanted to blatantly ignore it and maybe using the retcon as it nothing happened that year, Generations and Blaze maded sure to remember it. It's not like you can't just ignore it, you just sayed "We have a bad year and we didn't make it, and from this game we have to recover and keep running more than ever". But nope, godammit how I hate the "fans" and "critics", I don't fucking care, matter fact, just give Elise a second chance, I feel that they will write her right this time.
Sonic The Hedgehog, the character who got unfairly disrespected and had games that are even Excellent yet because of autistic crybabies, fat adults and old farts who are like those old geezers that believes that gold times were better, only with games, and living in the past is a big mistake, crime and all reason I need to just let you die if I happen to find you,

>>135773629
It's presumed that the Commander was the one that told G.U.N. about what was going on the ARK with the aliens and all. It's possible they got him off the ARK before raiding it and then the commander at the time set things up so no one, not even future commanders, could learn what happened.

>>135774037

>>135773724

>>135774093
It's not exactly replayability if I have to do it anyways. It's actually artificially extending the game for the sake of padding, especially since you have to start at Westopoils each time you want to get a different ending, even if it's for the same path you just completed. I don't see why you couldn't just be able to get the Evil ending for Lava Shelter by selecting it on the Stage select after getting the Hero ending.
>>135774280
I wasn't even expecting much. Again, even something like a new shirt or something would've been fine. Hell, anything but an announcement of an announcement would've been fine. I wasn't expecting a game announcement though, because they outright said there wouldn't be one. It's nice to have a release date for Fire and Ice, but eh. Not even like the panel itself was that interesting. Honestly the retrospective after it was a lot better

>>135773903

>>135774002
It is, but even with a hot garbage it is wrong to ignore it, one thing is to just forget it but remember the things that garbage maded to you so you can make sure to never do that again. And another thing is what happened. And this is all the fanbase and critics fault, Sonic Team (not SEGA) have also a share of fault but when you have a very biased critics that are pretty much the newspapers, ruler of information, but in videogames, you know how fucked up is Sonic and everything else that are not from the "good old times"
>>135774051
Just ranting

>>135773629
Maybe he thought "If Shadow was never made, GUN would have never stormed the ARK!", even though I'm pretty sure that they stormed the ARK because they were afraid of whatever weapons Gerald was making (like the eclipse cannon), even though they were the ones who asked him to make weapons in the first place. Even if Shadow was never made, they probably would have raided the ARK anyways.

>>135776326
To be fair, that one walkway really does have awful collision detection
And even if you do stop in the middle of a loop like a retard, you shouldn't be flung around like he was
Yes, you can easily not run into those glitches by just holding straight forward and straight right when you're supposed to, and when he fell through the walkway once he shouldn't have done it two more times just to gawk at it, but that part is still legitimately glitchy and far from working properly

>>135776871

Welp there's another weekend wasted on nothing important and so we soon enter tomorrow where work is the next day.
I hope you losers did something worthwhile this weekend instead of staying in your rooms.

Even if you have no reason to randomly stop in a certain spot, it still shouldn't force you through the wall or fling you to the top of the loop, you should just stop like you normally would
If you want to walk to walk to the end of the walkway, stop, jump around a little, walk backwards, then go through the loop, you should be able to do that without being clipped through the level geometry
That's just something basic that should be expected from any sort of platform

Runners came out last year anon.

It's Saturday where I am. I got 2 more days to do fuck-all since I got Mondays off

>>135777959
Doubt it. I'd be guessing they are gonna try a brand new gameplay style again and I doubt it goes well.

>>135778137
I got in a bunch of studying and passed some practice exams to prep for my actual course exam. Mind you, it was all in my room...

I'm betting it's gonna be a "Classic Sonic" game a la Sonic 4.

>>135778556
What kind of soda?

>>135778817

strawberry fanta

>>135778137

>>135778137
No, I actually wasted the whole thing, which only makes me even more mad.
