What is Sonic about to do here?

>>181403736
He just smoked a whole bunch of meth and he's tweaking out.

Heroes is legit the greatest Sonic game ever. Sonic Team really had their fucking shit together when they made it. Like, it's legit sad how no game after can compete with it.

>>181403979
I continue to believe you "Heroesfags" are just pretending for the (You)s.

Nah, you're just a fucking stupid and deluded person. Heroes has good graphics, great music, fun, challenging and rewarding gameplay and a good story. I love everything about it.

>>181404497

Do you guys know when exactly Mania will be unlocked in Steam? I need to plan my days off.

>>181403979
Heroes is one of those games that always makes me feel good while playing, but it's far from perfect.
As a kid I didn't mind the flaws because I thought it was awesome that I was playing a Sonic game, now it's hard not to see the problems with the gameplay and story due to working and going into "Game"/Software design and writing.

>>181409246
I want to say devs control what exact time it can go live, but I believe the default time on Steam is 10AM PST/1PM EST. So unless SEGA says different, it'd probably be around that time August 15th.

Someone should ask mememan if there's going to be a specific time on one of those Sonic Official streams.

>>181403979
Stop posting, it's incredibly weak bait.
Like, I fucking love Heroes, I really do, but the controls are here and there, the do every mission several times is repetetive, the homing attack is a bitch sometimes and TAILS ALWAYS GRABS THE RING BEFORE I PRESS SQUARE.

Plus anyway, everyone knows the greatest Sonic game is Sonic Mega Collection Plus: History Section

Saying it's the greatest game ever for Sonic when it has trouble standing up as a great game due to it's flaws is where I have the problem.

And I found two parts of it for roughly $100.

Although the website tends to have used items, it normally tells you what's wrong with it and you'd have to play the trust game.

Don't get me wrong, there's plenty of reasonable prices on ebay, it's just that you really have to compare and most things you shouldn't buy at first glance.

>>181438591
Actually I just noticed she has blue-eyes in the game too. Never noticed until now.

>>181438812
I never thought of Tikal as an american indian though to be honest. Considering she's the ancestor of Knuckles who I've more than accepted has dreadlocks and is probably black, I just sorta imagine all the knuckles clan like that.

Although if we're basing it off of the architecture in Sonic Adventure they're clearly more of an aztec or mayan culture. Probably more Mexican or South American than a North American Native American (unless by indian you actually meant someone from India?)

>>181438446
No.

Reminder that when Tikal was alive, she smelt of poo.

>>181439446
It's pretty unapologetically central-american. Tho it's more of a mix of Mayan and Aztec than one specific type. Or that accurate.

Also maybe Knucles is like the mexican kid who thinks he's black just because he lives in a ghetto alongside all his 15 brothers.

The latter could be solved by having him I dunno, try to find his family, vow to get Eggman for burning down his home, try to find out a mystery about his past, SOMETHING

>>181444435
look at Blaze, she's so happy

I want a Sonic level that takes place on Christmas Island

>>181442935
>knuckles losing to fucking silver

this is not okay

>>181444712
But Sonic does need an actual motivation. Maybe the people where he came from laughed at him for some reason and he wanted to prove to them that he was worth something, that he could be a hero

But those are some of my favorite things about Sonic...

>>181444590
Honestly, I could see Sonic's reasons for beating Eggman solely come down to "because he hates people being oppressed," or something like that.

I would like to know what the hell Christmas Island was (since I think it was said that Sonic was born there), but I don't think a full origin story is needed.

Also, I'm surprised Amy & Eggman are so low in the polls. Given how much love I've seen the two get here, you'd think they'd be higher.

>>181444590
You've made this exact same post at least 3 times in the post. You are retarded.

>>181444886
But more popular than an enchilada?

>>181444938
So you like a character with no clear motivation and that actively undermines the threat a villain should present?
>Honestly, I could see Sonic's reasons for beating Eggman solely come down to "because he hates people being oppressed," or something like that.
But that's too general, too vague. He needs something more specific. Look at heroes like Spider Man, Batman, Luke Skywalker. They have clear motivations and backstories that explain why they do what they do. Sonic doesn't
>>181445041
Doesn't change the fact I'm right

>>181444807
>>181445165
No he doesn't. Sonic's whole shtick is that he's a really laid-down guy, a borderline dick, or an outright dick depending on what version you're playing.

He's the "free like the wind" kind of character that doesn't do things for any one particular reason other than "well I feel like it".

Again, not a real motivation.

>>181445274
Why do you care about some random 6 month old poll?

>>181445165
Anon, calm down. Just because Sonic doesn't have a backstory like Shadow, doesn't mean there's no reason to like him. Sonic isn't my number 1 favorite character, but I like his character as a laidback, down to earth guy who only cares about beating Eggman's robots & saving his friends. I also like the fact that Sonic is the character that introduced me to this series & he's become one of my favorite vidya characters of all time. It's okay if you don't like Sonic, but it's okay for people to like him even if he doesn't have a backstory.

Unless you're just shitposting right now, in which case: (You)

>>181445365
No, being a typical "MUH PAST" character is boring and shallow.

Sonic can have depth without changing a single bit about his character, but you need someone who cares writing him. Hell, Sonic is THE perfect candidate for games that tell 2dip tales trough few words and trough gameplay alone, since he's relatively simple but still has a lot of personality to him.

And having 0 motivation or backstory doesn't make him boring and shallow? Having a personality that's just "dudebro" isn't boring and shallow?

>>181445580
This. Hell not just Sonic, but that's why I like a lot of the characters in this series. They don't have overly complicated backstories or motivations, but they do have personality & they do have character, which makes them fun to me. But I guess this anon is just baiting, so you're probably better off just ignoring him.

>>181442935
>no Tikal option
that poll is S H I T

>>181445686
His personality is that he is a free spirit, and that he's care free.

Basically he's the kind of guy who you'd see taking long trips trough the whole world trying to get new experiences and stuff. Which is why in a lot of the games it used to be played out like he and his friends hadn't seen in a while.

Anyway (you)

I would absolutely support it by any means. It would be real neat to see more of classic gameplay with Retro engine while relying less on nostalgia's and retro's styles, which is why I really like the Advance games. Not only that, this could also open for more playable characters than just the classic trio.

>>181424501
I would do that too, but only if he's from the games and Boom. I don't like the exaggerated facial features american Robotnik has, and I especially dislike he's not wearing glasses.

Just one idea. Is there any possibility of including an option to change sound effects, such as ring sound, jump sound or charging spin sound? Or is that only archivable with the original creator of the engine?

Hey, all. I'm gearing up to release the updated version of the Dev Kit. This new version features:
>A fixed homing attack
>Motion Blur effects for the camera
>Demo level layout changes
>A different font for Bump Tips
>Enemies that will load dependably on a standalone build
>Fixed rolling sound effects
>A new shader for Sonic to mimic his appearance in Unleashed and Generations

Any other minor requests before I release it?

>>181446813
Changing Sonic's personal sound effects is easy. Just click on ModernSonicSkin under the Player_Sonic_Modern object. There you'll find the Sonic Sounds Control component. As for the Ring sound, that's handled by the RingSpark prefab.

>>181448278
>fixed homing attack
Thank god.

>>181448278
Was the "Holding jump makes you jump as soon as you land" thing get changed? Or is it deliberate?

>>181448576
I am unsure if that was deliberate, or not, as I did not code it. It didn't seem like a huge issue to me, so I left it as-is. Also, it should be noted that Motobugs will still occasionally bounce you to crazy heights after homing attacking them, but the bug where the homing attack simply would not work at all has been fixed. Now, as long as you are in-range, you will attack the enemy dependably.

At least it knew it was being campy and rolled with it. It's not like SA1, SA2 or any of the other dark ages games where they try to take the awful script seriously. Hell it's not even that much worse in that regard.
>controls are slippery
I'll give you that but again, SA1 and SA2 weren't much better especially since at high speeds Sonic is impossible to control.
>Play it four times
Irrelevant. Once that's over and done with I can still revisit stages every so often and enjoy them. You can say that about pretty much any Sonic game that puts you through bullshit you don't want.
>The story was basically invisible
You complain about the dialog being cringy and too campy, yet complain about the lack of more dialogue?
>The Chaotix missions get outright bothersome to complete.
As long as you pay attention you won't miss any collectibles.
>It introduced regular enemies having health bars in a SONIC game.
So? It's so you learn how to use power forms properly. It ties into the gameplay. They're not a big deal in ShTH either because you have guns. Sonic 06 is the only time where they don't make sense.

That's retarded, even the tiniest enemies take multiple homing attacks or punches without level ups. You said it tied into gameplay, but you forgot to mention how it makes the game more fun.

Oh here we go. If you really think the Adventure games were completely serious all the time then you haven't played them in a long time. Last I checked neither of those games made you listen to the same voice clips every minute and a half during levels either.

It's probably in my top 5 sonic games. It's flawed all over the place but I have a lot of fun playing it. I feel like the team element is well implemented and it actually makes the levels a lot more fun to play through and the platforming/combat much more diverse and enjoyable.

I would MUCH rather have a heroes 2 than an Adventure 3.

Huh, neat.

Yes it is. If you defend SA1 and slam Heroes when they both have the same goddamn flaws then that makes you a hypocrite.

I'm not saying it's ok. I'm just saying if I can enjoy SA1 despite its flaws there's no reason I can't do the same with Heroes.

>Boy did we even play the same games?
Yes. Spindash spam and run around. The sensitivity is off the fucking charts.
>but you forgot to mention how it makes the game more fun.
By being more engaging and adding more challenge instead of mindlessly attacking enemies with little resistance.
>Blowing the integrity of the last game's lore is kind of a crime.
So you think Zero should've died after X1 never to return?

Changing the goalposts.

Green Hill Zone strikes again.

That's fascinating.

Basically not at all. Heroes came out at the height of my teen years in the Sonic fandom, and I most likely only got through it as quickly as I did because I had moved and didn't have any friends in town yet. I can appreciate how in a way it's the most like the Genesis games of all the 3D entries, but I just don't like the way flight characters and power characters break up the gameplay. The 2D games frequently had spots where you had to slowdown and do some platforming, but that was as Sonic and it felt so much better than s l o w l y flying as flight characters, or beating up monsters with absurd amounts of HP with power characters. The stages needed to be way more varied if they expected normal people to play through the game four times, or they should have just not required that at all.

The X series in general should've been a one time spin-off.

When you play as Modern Sonic, you are basically seeing Green Hill itself! That means it has been in every single stage Modern Sonic was in!

Fucking kill me.

Heroes came out well after SA1. There are expectations that Heroes should have fixed what went wrong with previous games, but it didn't. Even worse, it arguably doubled down on its flaws.

No one's saying you can't, dumbass, but the post you replied to made no mention of SA1/2 in the first place so saying "B-BUT THESE GAMES DID IT TO" is retarded.
