"Prism Bracer" - Gadget on his left wrist that stores multiple forms of Wisp energy at once, allowing Sonic (and the player) to swap between them at will instead of using them one at a time situationally.

Would obviously need the game to be built entirely on that single concept instead of shoving it in as a gimmick, but it'd be neat.

>>143774329
Well, I can say with some certainty that I wouldn't be as close to a normal functioning human being as I am right now if I never started going to 4chan

>>143774521
The Naugus twins can use crystal magics to control machinery, including controlling Metal Sonic in the upcoming Universe issue.
>>
>>143774521
Because Team Dark's getting in on the fun and Naugus probably used his crystal magic to control Omega
>>
>>143774629
Of course not, you'd actually be a normal functioning human being instead of just close to it if you never came to 4chan.

Friendly reminded that today is the last day Sonic Runners is playable in the U.S.

If you've not used your red rings, you may as well feed them to that fucking roulette wheel and see what happens.

Otherwise, grab the folder Sonic Runners is held in, zip it up, upload it to google drive and send it to Sonic Paradise, who are trying to preserve and maybe recreate the game without all the bullshit.

Fun fact about Sonic Runners: Every time you get a jackpot in the normal roulette the amount winnable goes down. If you win once it goes from 99,999 rings to 54,499 to 50,000 if you win again. Realized this after blowing all those tickers I had saved up in that game today.

>>143771281
so the movie will be bad but the game will be pretty alright? I think i could live with that

I'm so sorry, Anon.
>>
>>143786882
Eh it's fine, had almost all the buddies anyways minus goop the hedgehog and the Werehog. The most disappointing thing I've ever experienced in Runners was during the Halloween event where I spent over 1000 red rings (Ones I actually earned fairly in the game) trying to get all the special characters yet only ended up with Omega.

>without all the bullshit
Imagine yourself /sthg/, you've just earned yourself a spot at SEGA and they're willing to let you have a big input on what the next mainline Sonic console game will be. It comes at a price however, in order to achieve the spot you must fix Sonic Runners
What do? What bullshit would you fix/change specifically?
>>
>>143787892
Make it where you can just buy characters, buddies, etc with rings, red rings, or just money if you don't wanna grind a bit. Also remove the "Always need to be connected" shit.
>>
>>143787892

Look at Tales of Link.

Literally that. Buddies are their own thing, with a separate roulette for characters only.

Also no ads.

Always felt bad for newcomers to the game, they would never know the wonder that was 50 red rings ever episode/chapter Eggman fight.

>>143787892
I'm not sure exactly, but I think it could be alot more addicting and I'd aim for that. Grabbing all those fucking emeralds in that stretch that had the drill wisp at the beginning was fun.

We aim to be the first to break that cycle. Naturally, there's no guarantee that we will succeed, but that's just how it goes, I suppose.

>>143822253
Our level is already reaching near the end of production, actually. We've tested many different players with varying degrees of exposure to the Sonic franchise and even platformers in general with some very positive results. (More positive than expected, honestly.)
The physics puzzle showcased here actually requires a great deal of precision when reaching the end, as it will launch the player in 3 different directions depending on which angle they hit the final S-curve at.

We understand that it is impossible to please every Sonic fan at once, which is why I thought it might be a fun idea to pop into /sthg/ and see what folks around here think, so feel free to request any screenshots, Webms, or ask any questions.

>>143823008
Funny you should mention that. He posted part 3 of his Spitball series a couple months ago and I was surprised to find that many of his concepts were already a part of our project. We've been working since October, so I suppose it's just coincidence that our design philosophies line up as well as they do. I actually enjoy listening to it as I work for background noise.

Here's the opening of the level with some basic platforms for you. There isn't that much "flat platform to flat platform-style" platforming in our level, though. We put more of an emphasis on slopes and launching yourself off of them in order to gain height, but if you're itching for more traditional platforming there's a reasonable amount for you here as well.

>>143823580
>>143823848
Yes. I really do want to hear your viewpoint, as this is a point of contention for a lot of fans. What is the point of loops in Sonic?

>>143824224
That is some SA-tier platforming. It's unfortunate that you are only capturing half of the magic of the Genesis games in this.

>>143823848
>>143824224
To go fast
Or at least give the feeling of going fast
Compare how it feels to see Sonic whizzing around a loop in the classic games compared to seeing a scripted event of him casually running around a loop in the Adventure games or the light jog on a curved surface in your game

I have a question about the Mach State mechanic. How is it any different than putting boost pads before a loop or using the boost? You need to purposely leave a huge area of land or a sudden drop in order for it to activate. After that the player simply needs to move forward and he will crash through all the enemies/obstacles automatically. The whole concept of speed as a reward is useless if it's just given to you like that.
>>
>>143823848
>>143824224
Not that guy, but the point is basically a speed gate. You need to build speed to get through it and are rewarded with more speed as you exit the downward slope. The tight constrained loops also let the player build huge amounts of speed if they jump inside it properly. While your loops presumably aren't automated and need speed to get through, big huge loops lose the last part.

Loops are really just a visual piece, not sure what you're getting at.

They're supposed to be minor obstacles that give you a minor amount of speed for getting through them.

Here's my completely unwarranted take on 3D Sonic controls:

Sonic R's controls were the best controls of any 3D Sonic game. Only problem was the turning, really. You turned way to slow when standing still and you turned way too much when going fast. But besides that, it blows Adventure style controls out of the water IMO.

Go boot up one of the classic games and just run through a loop at Sonic's usual max speed
Then go find some speed shoes and run through a loop again
The sense of speed'll be increased compared to just running on flat ground

SA-tier in what regard? I just want to make sure that I understand your critique.

>>143824578
Which is precisely what we're going for here. All of our loops are entirely physics-based with no splines and no scripting at any time.

>>143824707
Mach State will not activate if that player is simply running. In order to master the game's mechanics they must understand when it is appropriate to roll and when it is appropriate to run. Running gives the player more control over Sonic's turn radius as well as more power over upward slopes. However, downward slopes will yield less of a speed bonus.

Rolling makes Sonic a slave to slopes, for better and for worse. He gains more of a speed bonus and there he will be able to break through into Mach State.

The challenge in this particular instance is in both knowing how to achieve the speed necessary to break into Mach and then knowing how to maintain and handle that speed.

Here are a few Webms to try and clear things up for you in that regard, as we had struggled with the role of loops ourselves when we began designing the level.

First, we have the player attempt to traverse the loop through the use of a Spin Dash. They fail, as the upward slope is far too taxing on Sonic in ball-form and he falls.
>>
>>143825429
In the regard of being bland, overly slow, and non-dynamic.
And I think the anon asking about Mach State was wondering how one would be able to break into one without a set piece.
>>
>>143825429
Again, you're missing the point
The player doesn't feel like they're going fast in the slightest
Or at the very least, watching these webms it doesn't seem like Sonic's going all that quickly

Personally I just don't see loops working in 3D at all, it pretty much only works when you can see it from the side and forcing sudden camera changes isn't really the best idea
>>
>>143825637
Return to sender
>>
>>143825703
There's one massive flaw when it comes to incorporating loops in 3D: why doesn't the player just jump to the other side?

And if the answer is "because there's an obstacle where they need speed to clear" then why bother having the loop in the first place since they'd need to get speed to clear the loop to begin with? The loop is redundant as an obstacle or a method of gaining speed.

>>143825703
Second, the player performs what we call a Spin-Cancel, where the player cancels Sonic's roll as soon as the Spin Dash concludes, sending him into a run. While running, Sonic has more power over upward slopes, thus he is able to conquer it!

However, that doesn't solve the problems stated here:
>>143824707
>>143824803
>>143825703
>>143826616

How does the player break into Mach without needing a huge hill like the aptly-named Mach Mountain?
Also, if you can get over those loops without Mach, then what's the point of them?
Also, also, This is 3D! The player can just jump between the loops, or go around them! Why even have the loop? Loops are meant to be obstacles to be conquered, rather than mere spectacle using this philosophy, right, so what gives?

Our answer lies in this final clip. In the third attempt, the player performs the Spin-Cancel in order to get over the loop. They then curl back up on the second half of the loop in order to break into Mach.
Finally, we have a breakable wall that can ONLY be broken while in Mach State.
Thus, the loops become both an obstacle to traverse while in Mach State as well as a tool to achieve it if you're clever enough with Sonic's moveset. If you attempt to circumvent the loops while approaching in Mach State, you'll either hit the river that goes through it, or turn too sharply and lose too much speed anyway.

While we do feature loops in our level, they are used sparingly, as they only make sense in linear physics challenges such as the one featured here.

>>143825993
>The player doesn't feel like they're going fast in the slightest
What makes you say that? Judging by the reactions of our testers they felt that Sonic moved quite fast while in Mach State.
>>
>>143827084
As I've said before, just look at Sonic going through a loop when going really fast in the old games
Compared to that this looks like a light jog
>>
>>143827084
So what you're saying is that the player is unable to go into the Mach State unless you create a set-piece that allows them to? Then whats the point? Why make something that's so forced be such a main element of your game? As it is it's just a glorified scripted event with player input. Instead of acting scientific and guiding players through how your loops work, try thinking about how you can make levels more organic so the player has more freedom of play. No one wants to be reigned in like that and forced to play how the developer wants them to in any given instance.

Indeed, they do need speed to clear the loop, but they need even MORE speed than that in order to break into Mach. You can easily clear the loop by running around it, sure, but you will not break into Mach doing that.
If the player figures out that they must roll while on the second, downward half of the loop then they are rewarded with much more speed than before.

In this case, the twin loops are an obstacle for a novice to conquer as well as a tool for a proficient player to use for a quick boost.

>>143827791
I'm afraid I do not understand.
>So what you're saying is that the player is unable to go into the Mach State unless you create a set-piece that allows them to?
Is that not how the Classic's behaved? Is there a point in the classic Sonic games where the player was able to hit Sonic's true top speed without a loop, or a slope to work off of? It's up to the player to know how to USE these environmental elements to their fullest potential, isn't it?

Also, I must emphasize that that particular physics challenge is a part of the opening tutorial section of the level.
We chose to guide the player a bit more directly during this section rather than just dumping them into an aimless playground and expecting them to know what to do and where to go. We wanted to make sure that they were very familiar with Sonic's moveset before letting them loose on the bigger obstacles.

I suppose that's my fault for not explaining that the Twin Loop challenge is part of the tutorial that teaches how to achieve and maintain Mach State.

>Is there a point in the classic Sonic games where the player was able to hit Sonic's true top speed without a loop, or a slope to work off of?
No but there also was not some specific threshold that they needed to pass over in order to increase their max speed limit. Without a massive sloped cliff or a loop to slingshot off of using a specific technique it looks impossible to enter Mach State at all. And at that point the Mach State might as well not exist and just be an organic part of Sonic's general movement by raising his speed cap to whatever the Mach State's is. You need to be asking yourself questions like this if you don't want the game to feel stilted, scripted, or guided. And I sure as hell hope rolling is not binding to down.

We figured that Mach State was a way to encourage players to roll rather than simply running everywhere. We wanted there to be pros and cons to each state and allow the player to decide when it was best to use each. If you could get to Sonic's top speed through running then what's the point of Sonic curling into a ball at all?

>Rolling binded to down
Eww. Certainly not. It's bound to the B button, or Right Click if you're using a keyboard and mouse. How would it being Down even work in 3D?

>>143830193
>>143830523
Trust me. You think you want a completely open-world Sonic, but you don't.
What you're feeling is likely an exaggerated backlash from the linear, scripted, on-rails experiences we've been stuck with for quite some time. I know the feeling all-too-well, but you can't let that cloud your judgement.
Our original vision for our fangame was probably exactly what you're envisioning right now but then we quickly realized that going fast with no rhyme, reason, or objective was trilling and empowering at first, but then got very old, very quickly.
Sonic doesn't need "Open World." It just needs... "More open than we've been getting." A bit more elbow-room to explore with a few new paths to take, but with a clearly defined direction and objective.

Getting almost exactly halfway around a loop and hitting down to curl into a ball at the apex and getting even more speed is super fun. I love timing the ball, it makes you feel like you're actually getting more speed than you are. I'm not sure exactly how that could translate into a 2d controller enviroment (rolling the dpad in the 2d games is fun but it doesn't really work in 3d since you can't rotate the dpad into the actual controller and around forwards) but it would be neat to see a way to do it.

Also, mr fangame man, it seems like it'd be pretty easy to come off those loops and just run into flat space, wouldn't it make more sense to indent them slightly like half pipes a touch in order to make you naturally gravitate towards the 'true center' so you're less likely to feel like you're losing control and are about to fly off the side?

You'd lose a slight amount of control but less so than putting little fence type walls on the edges of the loop. and it kinda makes sense that the loops would be '3d' and not just flat floor loops.

Why not incorporate the best of both worlds and have a wide open hub world to explore? You don't necessarily need to space everything out like in 06, you can make it so that you can find all the levels in a central area, and then you can explore outside that area if you want to.
>>
>>143828936
liking what I'm seeing anon. Hoping in the final version that the edges of surfaces are less clear cut, and more naturally occuring looking maybe? If you could either make the loops and such look like man made objects by an ancient race or somehow naturally occuring land formations, like your half pipe here would be more of a half bowl instead I think it'd look a lot better. But I get that you guys are still prototyping stuff, so I look forward to seeing how it progresses.

Then what are even the pros to running instead of rolling at any given opportunity when you usually get rewarded with Mach State which makes which one you do pretty much negligible during Mach State.
>If you could get to Sonic's top speed through running then what's the point of Sonic curling into a ball at all?
That is not what I said at all. Instead of having a Mach State that pushes Sonic into a higher level of speed, just have that higher level of speed just be a part of his normal movement. The player still has to do things to earn it but he isn't forced to perform a specific action in a specific place in order to obtain any sort of actual speed.
>>
>>143826616
it's because they'd actually lose momentum by changing directions like that. To do that Sonic would need to expend more energy to move both up and use energy equal to kinetic energy stop moving forward. So a loop is the most energy efficient method.

>>143832347
Oh jeez. I dunno if anyone is ready for that.

>>143832468
I think I see what you're saying now.

Basically what you're saying is: keep the dynamic of Sonic's acceleration on downward slopes is increased in ball state while he has better steering and control in running state.
However, on top of this, remove the speed cap on Sonic's running state such that he is able to hit Mach while running. It'll just take a bit more effort to do so, so rolling still has its place. Is that more, or less correct?

Basically. A player should have to roll to gain speed but be able to control that speed while running and slowly losing speed while running so players have to seek out ways to continuously "replenish" their speed. Mach State should not be a specific state of running caused by performing a specific technique but a byproduct of running and gaining sufficient speed in general.

Like you can spindash and superpeel out and shit to get a small start but long as you keep running your speed picks up till it maxes out at some ridiculous point.

>he has trouble with Silver Sonic
Seriously? All you need to do is jump on him 4 times, wait for him to move to the other side of the room, then jump on him another 4 times. Also why is he talking about the composition of the music without talking about Masa's original demo versions? The music in Sonic 2 is only a reproduction of Masa's original songs, so if I were to analyze why the music is the way it is, I would start with the original songs.
>>
>>143845053
Considering this might've been during the whole time where thwy were pushing the whole animu look, it's no wonder Sonic would be afraid of a School Days ending.

No. But the last time I rented it, some guy had gotten to level 5 and I continued from his save.

It was only for one day though, so I sat up all night and played. I finally got to Robotnik in the Launch Base the next morning and beat that motherfucker on my last life with 0 rings. I was so happy.

Then the sky went dark and the music. I was like no no no. The Robotnik came down in a new mech. I was like NO NO NO. He picked up Sonic and carried him off-screen, so for a moment I thought I was going to live before he SLAMMED him into the ground and it was game over.

9 years later I beat it and S3&K on an emulator, but I was still mad.

Season 1

The good points first.

-Heads or Tails is truly a beautiful episode to look at. I ended up watching season 2 before season 1, so going to the regular drab colours to the vivid meadows was a shock to the system.

-There was actually quite a variety of different locales. Aside from the usual places, you got to go to jungles, ruins, sub-terrainian populations (twice, different both times) and even space. Definitely nice to see locations mixed up, especially as it came hand in hand with varying how Robotnik affects the plot (I don't think he was even in Warp Sonic).

-While Sonic and Sally was pretty heavily slanted to, there were times where it was mixed up and others got the spotlight. Hooked on Sonics had Antoine as a focus (although in usual bumbling form he instigated the trouble, although he does eventually recognise how badly he messed up, apologise to Sonic and assist him in the end fight), and Rotor gets two episodes in the limelight which really surprised me. Bunnie...uh, she's on the second mission with Sonic in Ultra Sonic, and Way Past Cool has her limb modifications play into the plot, but she never really felt like a focus.

Okay, now for the negative;

-The art direction for the show is so, so dull, it's not nice to look at. You may argue that's a good thing for Robotropolis, but not only would I refute that, that doesn't explain why nearly every other location is that drab (Sub-Sonic had bits of post-growth that looked nice but nothing else comes to mind).

-The plots for the most part were by the numbers and nothing I couldn't see on any other show of a similar theme at the time. You've got your environmentalist themes, stock plots out the wazoo and not really much spice to add to it. The only episode that really does is Ultra Sonic, being the only true exploration of the roboticisation the pilot established (and with some amount of emotional weight too...but let's see how that's undone when season 2 rolls around).
>>
Just for the record, I think David Villaire was the best writer overall; he not only gave us Ultra Sonic, but proved he could do lighter plots with Harmonic Sonic. Too bad he only did those two episodes.

-The characters were stock and never went beyond that, And there wasn't really development for them to add any different nuances to them. Antoine was the French coward, Bunnie was the Southern belle with a feisty side, Rotor was the tech guy (who at least had the tidbit of being the most aggressive about Robotnik, so I can see where that came from post-reboot in the comic), Sally was the serious tactician who always bickered and belittled Sonic, and Sonic was an arrogant jock. If there's one thing I will say, it's that while Sonic and Sally did often bicker like they hate each other in season 1, it was at least balanced by having some of the episodes get one in on Sally, some of their bickered being toned down and having far more moments where they went with Sonic's plans because he could also have good ideas (Notable in Super Sonic, as he had to do the rescue without his speed).

As a little note, there are three episodes where Sally kisses Sonic. Hooked on Sonics has it there to instigate the plot of the episode (and also has Sonic kissing Sally seriously which further drives Antoine to his actions), Sub Sonic uses it as a callback when she gives Rotor the same hero's kiss later (Rotor had been lamenting wanting to be a hero like Sonic earlier), while Sonic and Sally has it for no reason. It may have been a bit OoC for Sally, but at least it was justified by plot two out of three times.

Oh, hey, the writers of Sonic and Sally were Ben Hurst and Pat Allee. That brings us nicely into season 2.

Season 2

Like before, let's get the positive out of the way.

-Um...there's continuity I guess? It's pretty shoddily done and has zero satisfaction, but it's there.

-Shit I've ran out. Sorry.

And now to rip it a new one.
>>
And now to rip it a new one.

-Remember that variety of locations in season 1? Gone. 80% of the series at least is now set in either Knothole or Robotropolis, with maybe a tiny look at other locations (the only exceptions were really the Void, Drood Henge and Cry of the Wolf, and even they were all set in the Great Unknown.

-This also greatly reduces the variety of plots (or at least plot foundations) as it reduces it to raid missions on Robotropolis for god knows how many times. It also means that Robotnik has the same involvement in the plot every single time.

-You can tell this season was on a lower budget than season 1. Maybe that explains the locales being so limited, but I'm mainly talking audio. In season 1, I remember a single instance of a line being blatantly looped (Antoine's cry in Sonic Racer). In this season, not only is it far more common, some of the dubbing in is atrocious, with lines played over characters that aren't even being animated to look like they're talking.

-This next point is going to be the most controversial by far, even by this review's standards. So I'm going to give it its own line, bold it, and make sure you know I'm deadly serious in my assertion. Here we go...
>>
n terms of writing, Ben Hurst was the Ken Penders of SatAM.

Very strong claim, but here's a checklist of reasons why I say this.

-Altering characters to suit his vision when it goes against their established characters? Check. Sally actually got it in more minor strokes, since she was already bickering with Sonic most of the time and she wasn't alien to being pigeoned as 'love interest' even outside of Hurst's episodes (in fact, Warp Sonic was worse about it). However, he did remove any trace of her being able to be on the receiving end of the humbling, and the kisses went to about once an episode, with no real justification (in fact, in season 2 it seemed like they were there to desperately assure watchers that Sonic and Sally were destined to be together because the writing made it toxic).

Sonic, on the other hand, got this badly, going from an arrogant jock who, despite liking to act first a lot, still had a lot of good ideas that made it clear that he could hold his own to an arrogant jock who didn't have one brain cell between his ears and had to rely on Sally to do anything. The fact that one of Hurst's season 3 plans was to mature Sonic when he regressed him from that level to begin with is insulting.

-Reducing the rest of the cast to being background noise? Check. Antoine was at least kept somewhat in relevance, as apparently the network wanted more comedy in season 2, and he was the comic relief. But this was not a good thing for him, because now his occassional bits came about far more often which made it more grating, and the cast was far more unpleasant to him (not that season 1 didn't have this, but it was few and far between even with Antoine present). The worst of it were definitely the Antoine double stories (two of which had the only stories not written by Hurst or Allee. Len Jansen wrote four episodes in season 1, including the pilot. He wasn't bad there by any means, although he did throw in banal humour on occasion. I guess being forced onto Antoine episodes really wasn't his forte).

Bunnie and Rotor, meanwhile, were there as props and maybe to provide a plot device/point. If Bunnie went on a mission, she'd be there to provide extra lines and that's about it (her line about a magnet strapped to her chest for a mission making her feel attractive is pretty much up there with Sax Cymbal). Rotor never got any field action, being reduced to making inventions in Knothole despite working the field many times in season 1 and having the most episodes outside of Sonic and Sally to prove his solo chops. Tails is mostly ignored for season 2 (which, to be fair, was nothing new), but then he got the actually okay Drood Henge, which showed him having learned tech stuff from Sally, and being able to make a good plan. Sounds like good grounds to bring him more up to speed with his game counterpart's adeptness, right? Well, considering that Hurst's idea for developing Tails was to have him discover that he had immense powers, I don't think that would have been capitalised on.

>>143874269
>>143874384
tl;dr season 1 okay season 2 bad thanks
>>
-Bringing in new characters that get far more focus than established characters because they're his own creation? Check. Dulcy is the big culprit here, and I can understand why SatAM fans would have loathed her when she appeared. She comes out of nowhere, is suddenly on pretty much every mission, has an annoying running gag, and within seven episodes has her own titled episode, her race being retroactively made super important and a whole destiny set up for her, all while Bunnie, Rotor and Tails stand aside and do nothing. I'd go more into it, but...ah, not now.

Even though she's existed from the start, I'd say NICOLE was the other culprit. In season 1, NICOLE was clearly just a computer unit, since all she did was relay information and hack. There's even a moment where Sonic yells at NICOLE for being so complex in the jargon, and because it's a computer it just keeps relaying the information back, not responding to Sonic's stimulus. In The Void, Hurst felt some strange need to give this computer semblence of character, by having it simplify the analyses to the point he understands it and even sassing him by treating him like an idiot at one point, and eventually picking up his mannerisms when talking to him. This, despite the contradiction it has with the season 1 moment above. It's like MAYA from Rise of Lyric but done worse (even with not liking SatAM, I'm surprised I can use RoL as a positive contrast). The cynical part of me thinks this was done as yet another way to link Sonic and Sally together, the less cynical part of me thinks he wanted an excuse to have Sonic be able to use NICOLE in the Doomsday Project. Either way, it shouldn't have been done, at least not until the aforementioned sidelining had been dealt with. And the fact her planned origin would have been being basically the computer copy of a dead child Robotnik lured to his base warrants "gratuitously adding unfitting elements for Sonic" being checked off too.
>>
-Establishing elements that end up with very little payoff? Check. Mainly this is about the whole 'other Freedom Fighter' thing. That was set up in the first episode with Ari, wasn't brought up again until Cry of the Wolf (with Ari rescued from the void in the meantime), at which point it's off handedly mentioned that the other two FF groups have contacted the Wolf Pack and want to help. And then they have zero contribution to the Doomsday Project. That was pointless.

-Ignoring what other writers had established plotwise to do whatever with it? Check. I've already gone into NICOLE, but that's one of the least egregious things he ignored for his plans. To wit;

*King Acorn is alive and has evidence of being active recently? (Sonic Boom) No he's not, he's alive but been in the Void for a decade! If anything, Sonic Underground is like Sonic Boom: The Series (but not the actual Sonic Boom series if you get what I mean).

*A reversal of roboticisation in the mind can only be a temporary override with the power of love? (Heads or Tails, Ultra Sonic) Nah, you can restore their minds forever and not worry about Robotnik reverting them! Who cares if that retcons one of the most defining episodes of the show?

*Other free people aren't out of place and can even be seen as part of the Knothole village? (Warp Sonic for strangers, many episodes for the Knothole village including Sonic and Sally) Nope, the FFs are totally alone and you need a list from daddy to think that other people can be allies! Griff? Cat? Who are they?

*The Freedom Fighters were working on having their own transportation including a plane? (Sonic and the Secret Scrolls) Nuh-uh, they'll only ever need Dulcy for that!
>>
*Terapods are considered the most powerful species by Robotnik for sheer power? (Way Past Cool) That one's going to be so ignored, dragons are established to be super special and powerful to Robotnik even before Sonic became an enemy!

I'm sure there's more, but these are the ones that stick out the most.

-Contrivances abound that solve or create the problem without needing any effort? CHECK. Season 2 is chock full of these, and they really takes the stakes out of events. Uncle Chuck's reversion has been mentioned, but I didn't mention how he happened to have just built a second base making Spyhog a wholly pointless episode save for Doomsday Project build-up. Blast to the Past started because Dulcy happened to know about the floating island and time stones despite everyone else thinking of it as a myth (how would Dulcy know about the stones definitely being there if they're in the temple? And how did no-one find that island before her if she can just bump into it?), and then has Chuck magically believe they're the real deal instead of questioning their identity. Cry of the Wolf has the good guys shoot down a powerful pod several times with fakeouts, only for it disposed of with lightning.

Firstly, they somehow had the solution to getting rid of the pods (metal-eating acid in water balloons) the entire time...but could only make 25 of them. It should have at least been established when they thought of this, because that seems like something you'd want on standby in the first place when fighting a metal army. Then, Robotnik has a roboticiser just for Sonic that can overpower him with one power ring...so he brings out three (never mind the fact you can't get three at the same time since the life span of one power ring would go before another could be made, as established in earlier episodes). The most terrible, most contrived asspull though? The core of the machine is diamond-covered, appearently making it indestructible (let's ignore the fact that it wouldn't). The Freedom Fighters decide to use the deep power stones from Drood Henge to eliminate the machine. Problem: they have one, but Robotnik has the other. The solution? Sonic goes to search for it amongst the stored plans, and it's sitting right out in the open, completely unprotected so Sonic can just grab it.

...What? This is an artefact capable of destroying the world or granting immense power if you get the other half, and Robotnik, with all of his planning, resources and effort spent on retrieving it, essentially leaves it on the filing cabinet.

So yeah, that's season 2 done, and in a nutshell it's boring and stupid and goddamnit I never want to see it again.

Then again, I don't want to see the whole show ever again.

To be fair he only gave what he got. Imagine you spent the past 15 years crafting your own autistic universe then suddenly some nip comes along, "me no likely sonikku crying, Sonic is our character and you can't use him".

Actually he left because Pellerito told him to actually use some game characters for once and Penders got pissy because "HE didn't understand my GRAND VISION"
Penders deserved all the shit he got and then some
>>
>>143884103
He left and thought Archie would be so desperate without him they'd beg for him back and give him a lot more creative control.

Instead they hired someone else.

short range knife doesn't beat amy's hammer, especially since she can summon even bigger hammers at will. Plus reflexes and fighting skill etc.

Amy is a seasoned freedom fighter that can summon giant hammers and regularly takes on metal sonics and giant ox guys.

Mina is just a speedy singer with I guess some fight experience?

No contest really. Plus if the fight is for who gets to be with sonic? Mina wouldn't stand a CHANCE.

if you'd heard all the stories of robin hood doing good work or how the flash had saved all those kids, when a dude in a green hood or a red costume shows up are you gonna be able to totally confirm it's him?

I mean yeah technically they were they televised fighting so actual fans should have seen his face and probably bought sonic posters or something? but they were totally bullshitting him because his ego is more famous than his speed, so they knew if they butter him up he'll just fall in and be easy to manipulate.

Now if sally were there on the other hand she'd have seen through it all...


It raises a good point though, how internationally recognisable is sonic and the FF anyway? Are they global faces or literally one cell of heroes in a world full that just happen to be a little more successful directly against eggmans main chapter?

You know, it's truly amazing. Every time I actually take a look - even a glance - at a Penders work, it somehow finds a way to further disappoint me. Sometimes it's a bit thing, sometimes it's tiny, but there's always something.

Its crazy how little Sega really tried this gen of handhelds when I think both of them are fucking amazing
Companies like Capcom ported Xbox 360 games to it when they first got the dev kits while Sega decreased their handheld game budgets and dev time.
Hell the new MH has a bunch of crazy particle effects, DOF, bumpmaps, and real time shadows while Sega's generations handheld version ranged from acceptable to visual mess, we have open word games on handhelds now while Sega's first handheld 3D Sonic game was a mess level design wise.
We will never get the handheld Sonic game we deserve because Sega will never give it the attention it deserves.

The sentence is simply impossible to justify. If taken at face value, he just said that Shadow is a sentient wave-form, like if a ray of light suddenly became self-aware and solidified into a hedgehog.

I still have no idea how studying Shadow would help Locke find the Brotherhood, but I'm also surprised Penders didn't just ignore that they were missing because I'm pretty sure RtAI was the story when we found out they were gone.

legimitate question, how is she sexualised? is it because she has an obviously feminine body? the pose itself doesn't seem to be excuding sex appeal to me, it just looks like she's off model and more human looking. But I am probably desensitised to seeing women with that kind of figure, so I'm curious as to what makes you think/say this.

I mean I could get it if she was unnecessarily bent over or in a pose that was overtly sexual, but this page doesn't seem to do that.
>>
>>143933839
sally is literally naked
take away the giant head and make the body flesh colored and you just have aregular naked body
>>
>>143935016
so you're saying human are inherently sexual? Sonic is running around in just a pair of shoes, he's wearing less than sally. Is it the fact it looks like she has a human body? So a naked fat old dude would be sexual?

Like I said, the pose and how she comes across doesn't seem like it's sexualised to me, she looks like she's running and worried. She's not sticking her chest out or pouting suggestively or appearing in any way flirtatious or sexual.

But again I'm just trying to understand where you're coming from. Is it because she looks like a naked human lady that you say it's sexual?

that Sally is short and stubby, and unlike the comic you pointed at does not have missile tits or an hourglass figure or gigantic hips, or any soft shading that makes her more human as a character.

The realer shading makes her more "real". Not every naked body is sexual, but a naked young female body is.

You mean Made in Heaven from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure? I guess you can compare the two, though the Super Genesis Wave allowed you to create any universe you wanted, while Made in Heaven created a universe where every event is set in stone and people instinctively know everything that's going to happen in the future. Of course, in the end both are interrupted and cause the creation of a new universe, so I guess they are pretty similar.

>>143945371
>and suddenly the comic was actually good?
It honestly wasn't. It took a few issues for it to be completely apparent that Ian was actually better and a lot of the stuff he introduced like Scourge initially seemed like the same garbage. 175 was a huge "holy shit" moment, but then House of Cards happened. I'd say it wasn't until about 3 years into Ian's run that I felt completely comfortable saying the comic was better.

>>143946336
Yes, any "young" (though her body type on an actual person would be at least young adult) naken female body is inherently sexual, at least when its shaded like that.

Not an issue as of the reboot, but maybe some of them just didn't like pants
>>143947819
Not yet
>>
>>143947804
they don't fug. As far as we know, babies are delivered by storks.

The general way things go is that clothing is just a tertiary sexual characteristic to signify "female", with male being the "standard" and thus not needing clothing.

Of course, that was the rule 80 years ago. With Sonic taking elements from old cartoon characters but made in the 90's I guess the artists weren't sure what rules they were following, and nobody guessed people would sexualize the squirrel. Ricky, the character whom Sally is based on, doesn't wear clothing because he's just a normal animal.

cos sonic is based on mickey mouse. So being naked is the standard and some characters have extra bits of apparel and some don't. Sally originally just wore shoes like sonic, but they gave her a jacket to balance her out colourwise. And later everyone panicked and demanded all women needed to be covered because some people (like in this thread) think that as soon as a female character isn't clothed it becomes sexual, so they created a double standard and covered the females which only made them being covered stand out more.

It's like how donald duck doesn't wear pants, but when he gets out the bath he always wraps a towel around his waist.

As for fugging it's a cartoon man, don't worry about it.

Amy shouldn't be wearing nothing like Sonic because her intial design was fully clothed. Sally's initial design was boots only so it's fine.

Another odd factor is skin/spines/fur, for some reason sally is okay because she's fur, but amy wouldn't be. Especially if she had a flesh tone chest like sonic, because then she'd look like a girl in a pink morphsuit with her boobs out.

The standards and conventions are really weird. I mean contrast to stuff like animaniacs where dot has just a skirt but minerva mink always wears dresses.

It's weird cartoon shorthand now that's been conflated with nudity which has been conflated with sexuality. So it's easier to just clothe the girls and not have to worry about all the ratings boards of all the nations of the world. Since now you're trying to make every product global, you gotta make sure it fits a whole new stack of potential criteria.

Guys, it's simple. Does the cartoon animal have visible lumps on their upper torso meant to represent breasts? If so, put clothes on them. If not, you don't need to.
