Game officially drops today if you have the deluxe edition like me.What's the consensus?
>>692520878Censored Sonic Slop
>>692521071For flacks sake
>guns on right hand>use finger guns with left handmorons
Pure Sonic Kino
>>692520878>What's the consensus?woke trash
Already played it on Ryujinx. It sucks.
>>692520878LONG TIME NO SEE, SONEX
>>692521782>emulationYou didn't play the game pc troon
>>692520878Would have been great but they finally caved into the tranny crowd. I hadn't had much faith in this franchise for a good while but this is honestly the killing blow here.
>>692520878Sonic literally says he'd never be caught using a gun.
Somehow kino returned
>>692521851But I did? I launched the game, and played it. At what point did I not play the game?
WHERE IS THE LAST GEAR IN THE HUBWORLD TELL ME NOW
>>692521782b8 used to be believable
>>692520878It's fucking great
>>692520878It's basically a mini Generations6 pairs of levels (Act 1 3D + Act 2 2D)3 bosses + final bossAnd has a 3d hub world similar to the frontier islands.
>>692520878It's the best 3D Sonic game since Generations....NO I'M NOT FUCKING CRAZY JUST LISTEN TO ME
>>692524032Oh and a shitload of mandatory challenges, which are basically mini levels with a small twist. Just like the base Generations.
>>692520878post the edit
>>692524032That's cool, can someone falcone tell Sonic Team though that no one cares for 3D sonic titles to have 2d stages in them?It's as if sonic team is afraid to do a fully 3d sonic game now
>>692520878Is Modern Sonic's drop dash any good?
Censored garbage with a shit expansion tacked on.
>>692524117lol I look forward to picking my copy up tomorrow at Best Buy. I didn't realize how much content had been added and how great the Shadow portion looked until there was a thread about it yesterday.
>>692525413Not really If anything I wish they gave him the double jump so it wouldn't feel awkward swapping between games
>>692520878Sonic would never hold a gun
>>692526423Even though there's less stages than base Gens it's pretty much the same length but with REALLY FUCKING GOOD level design!
Okay fuck this. I'll just wait until some autist finds all the machine parts, I can't be assed to do this. I spent all day yesterday playing anyway. I doubt the reward's anything good.
Really wish they had just reanimated all the cutscenes from the ground up. Not just to have them actually match the new audio, but because they look severely dated next to all the new Shadow stuff.
Is it jarring going from base gens to shadow gens? Both in terms of controls and the quality of the levels?
>>692527542Animation and lighting is a lot better in Shadow.
>>692528260>Wanted physical copy because Shadow autist and sharing>That and Xbox will serve as easy way of playing base Generations on my big OLED if I gotta buy it again.>Physical copy arbitrarily delayed to Friday>Dependent on Amazon free shipping because backwater town and no car/don't order enough to justify Prime.Won't get this shit until next Tuesday and I'll have that small worm in my brain saying to double dip at full price on Steam for the next week.
how's the generations part?worth buying if I already own the PC port? I'm not wasting money just for 2 extra hours of Chaddow
I miss Rouge's tits
shadow the edgehog
>>692520878>censored bat mommies back>censored amy's bio>censored sonic pushing amy away>censored shadow's edgelord behavior >censored amy's panties Woke sloppa
>>692526547I assume the drop dash is more useful in the sidescrolling sections when you are out of boost? Also, has any footage of the Sonic Adventure or Sonic Jam skins been released like Terios has?
>>692528260I find that hard to believe
>>692528834>how's the generations part?If collecting a few chao in every stage that is otherwise identical to the old version sounds interesting to you then it is fine. But the Chao don't actually do anything and probably unlock an achievement for getting them.
>>692529228When are you ever out of boost in Gens?
>>692527363So they're all still video? Goddammit.
>>692528570Feels>buy physical for my Xbox One X>want achievements>don't have OLED TV>also want a copy for switch because OLEDFuck, hopefully it goes on sale for Black Friday and I can get a switch copy
I was looking forward to this, but I'm not tolerating the censorship. I'm done compromising. I mean for fuck's sake, Knuckles can't even make a fat joke? Rouge has to be as flat as Blaze basically? Sonic can't tease Amy anymore?Fuck off with that shit. Sonic Prime was bad enough with their censorship of Rouge and the girlbosses galore, but to fuck with this remake is way too far.
>>692524032>3d hub worldSold!
>>692520878It's mid Just like Sparking Zero, Metaphor and YS X.I'm waiting for Black Ops 6 to come out
>>692529762The funny thing too is that Generations Rouge was already the compromise character design, smaller breasts and less curvy than SA2 Rouge. But Generations Rouge was still well modeled, they could have just left her design alone but Sega/Sonic Team choose to make the model worse anyway.
>>692529762
>>692520878I remember someone edited this so Shadow's gun was pointing at Sonic but Sonic wasn't holding his own.
>>692520878Cuckles how do we respond?
>>692530438>I love my censored slop because I'm either a sub, or an obese middle-aged woman who thinks she can still fuck Shadow.
THE PROMISED TIME IS UPON US
My? FUARKING HEROES!
>>692530392Rouge is always inconsistent. Censored one day then another day you end up with Rio Olympics Rouge. This ain't anyone's first rodeo
>>692531503>dead biolizard in the background from too much eclipse cannon in its asshole
let's goooohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6wpavHR5NQ
>>692529228>Out of boost>Ever at any point in the stage in GenerationsLolLMAO even
Dumb Question: Is the Shadow section a boost game? From what I've seen it looks like there's more contextual actions and slower-paced platforming compared to the "go, Go, GO" nature of generations.
>>692532538Yes but Shadow boosts less in favour of his new powers.
>>692521071>>692521779>>692521857what the fuck is wrong with you retards?
>>692520878Censored dogshit. Fuck that.
>>692525235>nowThey've been afraid to commit to a fully 3D Sonic game since fucking Sonic Adventure. Basically every single modern Sonic game has some sort of gimmick or bullshit to pad the game out. It's a mix of them knowing they're not capable of developing a full game focused just on 3D Sonic, and also that people will complain if their Sonic game isn't 20 hours long.
>>692532620Autists probably won't use his powers as much. After everything's said and done, the main point is to complete stages as fast as possible. None of Shadow's other abilities are particularly conducive to cutting your time.
I definitely don't approve of the changes to Rouge, but isn't it just basically the old Generations model edited a bit? I'm sure replacing it with the old one is pretty straightforward.
>>692533932Why censor an already censored character even further? Why fucking bother?
>>692533932amerimutt incels get mad when a woman is sexual and they get mad if she's not sexual
>>692530438When your games start to sell like Concord, don't cry about it.
dumb question: can we pirate the early digital deluxe version?
>There seems to have been an error initializing or updating your transaction. Please wait a minute and try again or contact support for assistance.LET ME IN
>the levels are actually goodThe second they revealed this I 100% expected them to disregard what made Generations actually good outside of "le references to other shit you played" and churn out another Forces and damn i'm impressed
>>692532623Imagine paying 50 dollars for activist propaganda and Shadow DLC over 10 years after the game came out.The only retard here is you and the shills in this thread.
>>692534403You're right anon - they should be charging 70 DOLLARS for a chance to play as the ultimate lifeform
>>692534403I mean people were begging for Generations DLC since its release. The fact that it took Sega over a fucking decade shows their retardation
>>692534512they are for the deluxe version
>>692534583the problem is it's not being billed as dlc, it's being billed as a new game
>>692520878I'm debating on picking it up. I don't wanna miss out on the Adventure skin, as dumb as that is.
How would Gerald react if he met Sonic? Shadow is the culmination of his life's work, the ultimate life form. And Sonic is just a guy who can pretty much do anything Shadow can, and he doesn't even need hover shoes.
>>692534925He'd be like blue hefehgo
>>692533932Genuinely, looking at it in not even sure it's intentional. It just looks like they fucked up the texture. But yes, it'll take probably 24 hours to get fixed.
>>692527363>no classic tails + modern tails threesomeanons...
>>692529729I got it for Steam with the Digital Deluxe and planning on getting Physical for Switch in Black Friday.
Why don't you guys get the game when it's at $35 on Black Friday or when the movie comes out. Sonic game are known to drop in value like the next month after they release lol.
>>692534925I never took it to mean that Shadow needed air shoes, just preferred them over running.
>>692535017New Rouge look
>>692535273Those curves and that outfit are problematic, sega had better change that pronto. Oh and that makeup? Get rid of it, she looks like a whore with it on.
>>692534726I played the xci and I think it's worth buying. It's a solid 8/10 game
>>692535273Get rid of the heart shit. It's sexist. You wouldn't see a guy with that on.
>>692535273Only thing I've seen is the back being brought up some. It may be that it's to align with the recent animations. Did they do more? Have we seen her from the front even?
>>692535641Damn I forgot how fast Frontiers was.
>>692535707Frontiers was only fast with the power boost or the spindash
>>692535813Nah it was pretty fucking fast when you had max rings in the overworld.
>>692535273>>692535379>>692535691>>692535692Got you
>>692520878Is Shadow black (no, not that kind of black)?
>>692535935yeah that's the power boost
Playing Generations after XShadow made me surprised how well the original holds up. I'd say they're still better than what XS has.
>>692536021Oh yeah.Sorry.
>>692535957Her hips are too wide and curvy, you'd better fix that, or else Ian Flynn will jump off a tall building in fear of her.
>>692536043I love its environment art and how fluid Sonic feels to control
>>692535707>>692535813I wish I could enjoy Frontiers but I hate all the cyber shit. I hate games where none of the levels or gameplay are "real." Also, if I heard correctly, they...made the Chaos Emeralds alien artifacts instead of mystical? Which, that genuinely was blasts me.
Did Shadow lose his memories of Shadow the Hedgehog game? How does he not remember his previous fight with Black Doom but Doom does?
>>692536153They're mystical alien artifacts now. I don't think the ancients even knew where they came from, may have forgotten though.
>>692535273rong
>>692536293Ahhh, much better. This pleases my heavily obese reddit wife.
>>692535273nuh uh
No one's gonna read this, so let me just say: You are valid. You are loved. You are valued. You GENUINELY have more potential than you know. I know what it feels like to wish you'd never been born. It gets better.
>>692536181I gather that Shadow is pretending he's not from the future for Maria and Gerald's sake.
>>692534403>activist propagandaLike what?
>>692531028WHERE IS IT
Mystery baby sister nigga
>>692535273>black skintight clothing under her normal clothesthis is just hotter you retards
>>692536438Fuck yeah anon. Propping others up is the shit. Don't let anyone make you feel bad for the things you enjoy, and things can always get better.
Did mephiles get the worst downgrade in sonic game history? Going from being the only being to kill sonic to a non existence whining about being forgotten is almost pitiful.
>reeee let me existHoly shit fag, no one cares. Fuck off.
>>692536242As far as I'm aware, the ancient aliens didn't really have complete mastery over them. Like they didn't really fully understand what they could do. They only knew how to use the Chaos Emeralds as batteries to power their machines.Sonic's ability to use them the way he does is unprecedented. Even Sage is all like "How the fuck are you able to use those things so well?"
>>692531550Rouge has never been this covered or flat before.
>>692536293Alas, Anon, it's still problematic, not enough clothes and too curvy. I'm afraid Ian Flynn might have a panic attack looking at this.
>>692536889Sonic solo'd Perfect Chaos in his base form during Generations.
>>692536985The anon he was responding to here -- I'm just irritated that they're magic space rocks rather than mystical items that come from Angel Island.
>>692536889>Going from being the only being to kill sonic from behind by surpriseftfy Mephiles is a fucking coward and got what he deserves.
>>692536889At least you're not Infinite...and better yet can they put Sage wherever the fuck they put him?
>>692537160They never came from Angel Island. That was always something people just sort of assumed. The Ancient Echidna tribe coveted the Chaos Emeralds and built alters for them, but they're not indigenous to Angel Island. Hell, even the Master Emerald doesn't actually come from Angel Island. The Echidnas just built an alter for it there. Angel Island didn't always float, that happened later via Echidna tech or whatever.It's even established in Sonic Unleashed that the Echidnas weren't the first ones to build altars for the emeralds. There are altars all over the world that exist to rejuvenate them and harness their power. That said, the fact that Light Gaia explicitly has shrines that allow him to use the emeralds' power does seem to clash with the idea of them originally being from space, since Light Gaia is a primordial Earth god.
>>692537160Only the Master Emerald is arguably from there. Sonic and the Chaos Emeralds have no defined origin.
>>692536889>No just let me exist and cause you all to cease to exist!Cringe
>>692536438https://voca.ro/1faSyy1prlCb
>>692537435>Chaos Emeralds have no defined originsomeone didn't play Frontiers even though that game kind of retconned the chaos emerald lore from unleashed
>>692536494I wish I knew, let alone saved it at the time. It was most likely edited in this board around the time it was illustrated.
>>692537372I wanted Infinite just for a remix of his awesome theme.Verification not FUCKING required.
>>692537472LMAO thank you anon, that made my day
>>692537491"From Space" isn't a origin. The ancients didn't invent them, for all we know, they found them on Earth, took them, had them for so fucking long they forget where they found them before the Master Emerald called them back to Earth.
>>692537527Infinite already got the best remix you could ask for:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pCRmXBbh70I
>>692537472Ok this is gonna annoy the shit out of me. What song is that playing in the background? I definitely know it but I have no idea from where
>>692537721Never Turn Back
>>692537769Ok it was from Shadow, thanks anon
>>692537428>>692537435Where did you guys get this detail? I'm sure you're right, but I'm only really aware of Sonic lore up to Sonic Adventure (I played SA2 but don't remember it much.) As far as I recall, as of that game they were all assumed to come from Angel Island. Could easily be wrong though, it's been ages since I paid attention. I ask as later retcons are my whole issue; seems like they keep making their nature unnecessarily more complicated by trying to "explain" them.
>>692520878sonic bros.... what timeline are we in? nothing makes sense.
>>692537831The echednia's held the Master Emerald since their time so the fact that they built it on Angel Island is the closest thing to an origin it has. Frontiers explicitly says the Ancients had the Chaos Emerald but when they passed by Earth, they resonated with the Master Emerald and came down dragging the ancients with them. That's basically it for Emerald lore beyond Unleashed. The Emeralds have no major lore because explaining it adds nothing and robs them of all mystique. My head canon is that when the universe formed and settled, the chaos energy settled and merged into the Emeralds.
>>692538050Dan Green says: take your meds
>>692538065*built a shrine for it on Angel Island
>>692520878>What's the consensus?Good gameplayShit storyRouge was nerfed but Maria has a fat ass
>>692529827cod slop sucks and is for low IQ npc's
>>692537675Wow damn!
>>692538065So, you're kinda making my point for me. I don't like that they come from space. They didn't before and it's annoying that they do now. I preferred them being mysterious, magical rocks.
>>692538204See my previous post>>692537674
Played the first level on Yuzu and the level design and controls are on par with the rest of Generations. I was expecting Frontier digital levels for Shadow's stages.
>>692535273It's always been this way.But if it was a new change, it would actually be an improvement.
>>692535957That's essentially one of the Rivals costumes, lol
>>692538265But I mean, that's just adding a bunch of headcanon. I guess what I'm saying is, now as far as we know, they were brought to Earth by aliens. Yeah, I get what you're saying that we still don't know how they were originally created so there's still room for a mystical origin, it just seems like a weird, unnecessary wrinkle to add that they were brought here from space.
>>692537674I don't get why the mystic rocks can't come from Earth. It's not like magic doesn't exist in Sonic because you literally get hints from a flying magic orb in Adventure.
>>692538441That and they could still have come from Earth since the Ancients just said they happened to find them and held them for a long ass time.
>>692538423>yaoi hands
>>692538457I just argued for why they can still be from Earth in the post you're replying too.
>>692538489Or they could've just not done the ancients because they suck
>>692538552He's saying that adding the "they were taken by aliens and carried around for eons then brought back" bit -- which is what you're proposing and is currently unsupported -- is just silly. Again, assuming that's even what happened. It would be nice if they had just, y'know, left their origin alone.
>>692521071FPBP. Sega fucked up.
That reminds me, I need to sign back up for the sega newsletter for the Saturn skin.
>>692531252I didn't read the words "Master" or "Emerald" so I don't give a shit
it's just generations but censored what the fuck is there to discuss about a decade old boost game
Something I always found kinda funny about the Master Emerald is that despite its apparent importance, it's largely irrelevant most of the time. The Chaos Emeralds tend to be fairly important in most games, but the Master Emerald just isn't. Especially so since Sonic has almost no connection to it despite his intrinsic connection to the Chas Emeralds.
>>692539431How OGens is still better than the Shadow side and any Sonic game released in the last 10 years.
>>692520878How come Switchfags don’t get the game early if they pre-order the Deluxe edition? Kind of ironic considering the Switch version can be pirated early.
>>692539509>Especially so since Sonic has almost no connection to it despite his intrinsic connection to the Chas Emeralds.That's because Knuckle's is the one with the connection. Sonic X even says the Master Emerald's power output is shit unless Knuckle's actively prays to it.As for why it gets ignored, it invalidates all schemes with the Emerald's because logically they would just give Knuckle's a solar powered phone and text him to shut the Emerald's down when needed. Thus why the movies just made it the Chaos Emeralds combined to avoid asking that question.
>>692531252Just makes me think of that scene in 06>Even if you believe that everyone in the world will be against you, know that I'll always remain by your side. Remember that.>...I will
>>692539509The ME has been the largest elephant in the room of the franchise since its introduction that Sega just got used to ignoring it. They could definitely put a lot of use to it. As far as we know, just the ME alone is strong enough to give a Super form as evidenced with Mecha Sonic in Sonic 3. But in SA2 it's used as a conduit to give Sonic and Shadow their Super forms, so it was already fucked on what it can do for a long whild. And then there's the Super Emeralds...
>>692538962I signed up for the newsletter to get the Soap shoes for Frontiers, but I never ended up buying the game. I wonder if it's not too late to redeem it.
>>692539796Super Emeralds are irrelevant. The problem with them is that getting them is an annoyance and it requires both extra plot nonsense AND extra gameplay nonsense.Like in order to obtain the Super Emeralds, you need to first collect the Chaos Emeralds and then place those emeralds on the altars on Angel Island. So already, if a game doesn't take place on Angel Island, the Super Emeralds would just become this weird annoying detour that Sonic has to take. Gameplay-wise, it also means that you'd need to play fourteen special stages in order to achieve a form that's ultimately not even all that special. Hyper Sonic is just Super Sonic with a kill screen button, that's it.
>>692539796>And then there's the Super Emeralds...Iizuka said they were just a bonus for connecting 3&K and they deleted them entirely when Adventure finally locked down there was only 7 Chaos Emeralds and what shape and color they were after the Genesis games changed their colours and shapes with the manuals implying every island has their own Emeralds. You think Ian wouldn't have had someone mention the Super Emeralds by now if he could.
>>692539946These newsletter bonuses become free DLC after a few months. SOAP shoes are right there on the Steam page.
>>692540087Only on PC I think. Consolers are FUCKED.
>>692540087Wow. I thought it would forever be exclusive for people who got the newsletter. I dealt with their spam emails for NOTHING. I feel like a sucker.
>>692529780Why would something like that sell you on the game.
>>692539509The Master Emerald is the Tri Force of Legend of Zelda.
>>692520878I just finished it, it's goodI'm still disappointed with nerfed Metal Overlord, no Sonic fight and no Super Shadow
>>692539509It's usefulness is ironically why it's useless. As Knuckles says it can nullify the power of the Chaos Emeralds so it's just a big useless rock until someone needs the Chaos Emeralds to be tard wrangled.
>>692540472Shadow playable in Sonic's levels?
>>692540547lol no. They're completely different executables on different engines
>>692540547Don't think so, Sonic Generations and Shadow Generations run on different engines
>>692540509That and Knuckles can't exactly take the ME with him to go put out some Chaos Emerald related fire
>>692535273Why her skin is black
>>692540415Nah, the Triforce still has more relevance if only because Ganondorf always wants it. The Master Emerald is sort of a plot tumor that the writers have just kinda gotten sick of it.>>692540509I mean it's useful, but it's also incredibly out of the way. I feel like most writers aren't terribly keen on bringing it out to the forefront because, I mean fuck, not all games even feature Knuckles, much less Angel Island. The Master Emerald is just incredibly inconvenient in every single way possible. Every time you want to use it, you have to take a detour to Angel Island for one reason or another. Bear in mind that in Sonic Adventure 2, literally the only reason it and Knuckles are brought into the picture at all is because, in spite of it being largely irrelevant to what was going on in that game, Eggman simply couldn't help himself and took a quick detour to try and get his hands on it again. And in order to bring the Master Emerald into a game, that's the sort of thing that would have to happen every fucking time. Because it's not like Sonic's gonna go to Angel Island unless he had a specific reason to.
>>692539960>>692540024I just think it's funny that canonically Eggman's robot in 3 is the strongest threat in the series.
>>692540621>>692540625Thats no excuse. Modders already made it possible.
>>692540625>>692540621Someone should mod the new model into the base game by Halloween.
>>692540709In what possible sense is that true
>>692540709I think it's sort of the toughest, but not the strongest. I'd say that the Final Weapon is one of the most durable final bosses, but none of its attacks can actually hurt Super Sonic. Both Dark Gaia and The End actually COULD hurt Super Sonic, although both were also less durable.
>>692540709Metal Sonic is consistently upgraded to be just a bit weaker then Sonic or Shadow. He's a jobber but Metal stomp any Genesis era bot by the time he got Neo-Metal in Heroes.
>>692540795>Ignoring CHAD BIG ARM
>>692538102I CAN'T. what started as a rebel against ian and his dumb writing now has me spiraling into madness. the inconsistencies. the retcons. the deeper i look the more evidence i find of multiple timelines than evidence against it. What is canon? WHAT UNIVERSE IS THIS?!
>>692540710Modders have consistently shown that they're more competent than Sonic Team so that's not surprising
>>692532623Idk, I didn't even know that game existed. I just calmed it woke shit preemptively.
>>692540795Why is everyone ignoring Egg Wizard from Sonic Rush Adventure? That thing could have been a threat to both Sonic's and Blaze worlds and possibly even more. Durable as shit too since both Super Sonic and Burning Blaze were taking cracks at it.
>>692540024>they deleted them entirely when Adventure finally locked down thereFWIW they seemingly planned for them originally since they're in this adverthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Occ7tCsn_nM
Will Silver forever be a jobber? I hope so, fuck him.
>>692540919That's just a texture/animation swap. It's not like you can use Chaos Control or Chaos Spear in Sonic Generations.
>>692540709I think (Not counting jobbing to Shitdow) it's still Metal Overlord because it took three guys hitting it at once to even hurt him.
>>692541067Eh. Still couldn't actually hurt them.
>>692540709>>692541067I'm pretty sure Omega is explicitly the strongest Eggman robot. He even whoops the shit outta Shadow in a certain timeline.
>>692540472>Nerfed Metal Overlord He wasn't nerfed. Shadow literally just got stronger. It's the same situation with Perfect Chaos vs current Sonic. Dude even canceled out the effects of Chaos Control. He still had proper knowledge on the Sonic Heroes BUT his knowledge on Shadow's powers was outdated which is why he lost. Even fucking Mephiles got curbstomped by Shadow. You have to realize now...Jobbing to the Ultimate Life form is an honor.
>>692540789Only boss to require Hyper Sonic which is so far the strongest form in the series. >>692540826We still don't know what prompted Eggman to make Neo by the way. And Metal just never uses it again. >>692541067While I would agree, it's more like Sonic sharing his power compared to Solaris where all three hogs tapped into Super. No idea why it was different that time, but who knows...
>>692520878I dont care how good or bad the game is, I can play as Shadow and that's all I care about.
>>692541192>He wasn't nerfed. Shadow literally just got stronger. It's the same situation with Perfect Chaos vs current Sonic.It has little to do with power level than it does just recreating boss fights. They are simply memeberberries, not a sign of power level increases.
Power level spics are so annoyingly autistic
>>692541192He was nerfed in the sense that things getting thrown at him didn't use to hurt him, only team attacks made a dent.>>692541332Eggman didn't make neo, metal did it to himself with his own hands as he says in the boss battle itself.
>>692541332>We still don't know what prompted Eggman to make Neo by the way. And Metal just never uses it again.He upgraded Metal and that involved adding more bits to it. He stays basic Metal in games for member berries but IDW and mobile games use Neo.
Does Black Doom get to frag the planet with nerve gas again?
>>692541332>it's more like Sonic sharing his power compared to Solaris where all three hogs tapped into SuperSonic also shared his power in 06, they just turned super with itKnuckles and Tails also went super, but Iizuka decided to ditch their glow colors from 3 and add gay bubbles
Honestly I think it was not only Shadow getting Stronger but also that Metal Sonic was underestimating the fuck out of him and didn't realize until it was too late.
DOOM powers are cool and I hope they give them back alter saying Shadow purified Doom's influence and can use them freely now.
>>692531252don't let the guy that pushed his mom down the stairs see this
>>692541332You only need Super to fight the Final Weapon, granted SS can't put a dent in the first form so you might be on to something.
Hold up, is that song from the first trailers actually in?
>>692541332>require Hyper SonicYou can beat it as Super Sonic though
Black doom?more likeblack goonhehehehehehehe...Did you guys manage to fix the darkness in sudachi? Runs ok but some extra ironing would be neat
>>692541450True
>>692541332Hyper isn't the strongest, Super Sonic 2 is.Hyper Sonic is the equivalent of Super Vegeta in DBZ.
>>692541990Super Sonic 2 is a brief limit break. He'll surpass it in base form eventually.
>>692542182In a few years, maybe. Sonic defeated a concept with it, going into overdrive in an already overdriven form.
>>692541990>SUPER Sonic 2>HYPER Sonic Hyper's stronger.
Tailsbros...Why's he looking at me like that?
>>692520878The concensus is that only faggots pay for early access
>>692542312Hyper was de-canonized in Adventure.
>>692540709I just think it's funny that canonically Eggman's not called Eggman because of his shape, it's because he steals ovaries
>>692542514Proof?
How do you think the performance will be in the Deck?
>>692542616Ian hasn't slipped any mention of them into his work.>>692542964Probably same as Frontiers.

>>692543048Deluxe timer still has another hour on the Steam page.
>>692542997So nothing. Seems like I still win then.
>>692543098So I should be fine if I bought the deluxe version then?
Tails is my comfort character
>>692543061>I was surprised when you showed up in hedgehog form!what
WHEN THE FUCK IS THE STEAM UNLOCKI WANNA PLAY THE GAME GOD DAMN IT
>>692543168Should be. Honestly if you're a westerner? don't worry about it until the morning.
>>692543378ANOTHER HOUR
Still no word on the Switch framerate? Sega's been quiet about it.
>>692543538720p 30FPS. Expect beyond lowest PC settings and drops and pray for a Switch 2 patch.
>>692543623I was actually considering the Switch version because my PS5 controller dies every five minutes.
>>692543727Plug it in nigger.
>>692543910I broke off the USB port after furiously masturbating to a shitty VN retard
>>692543623>>692543623Yeah the switch version kinda sucks. I loaded up the XCI on my modded switch and the 30 fps was poopy after being used to 60 fps on PC generations.
>>692543314Well, his brother is a lizard...
>>692543279Kill yourself. >>692543378It's not THAT good. >>692544093KEK GET A LOAD OF THIS DUMBASS FAGGOT
>>692544093Then buy another one and don't be retarded with it
>>692533932Undoing literally every single change/censor won't take some autist even a single day after the PC version releases, it's all basic script/texture/FMV changes and Generations has already been modded for years. I get the complaining because gaming's a hellhole where this is just normal now but it'll be a non-issue in literally no time at all and people will move on to the next thing.
>>692544253>Kill yourself.Erm... No! :)
>>692520878fuck ian flynn, I wish sega put their foot down and stopped that hack from writing his stupid fanfiction into the games, original sonic and american sonic are like two different characters, try playing frontiers with jp dub/eng suband now with this game being altered for the modern audience, amy no longer being sonic's self proclaimed girlfriend, knuckles doesn't even call classic sonic fat anymore because muh fat shamingalso i hate amy's forced tarot card gimmick nobody gives a fuck aboutwe're truly living in the worst timelinestuck in the boost era for 16 yearsthough maybe it's for the better if even sonic games aren't safe from the consulting firms, i'd rather they turned the boost games to shit than the iconic classicsimagine a 06 re-release, too problematic cuz it's a damsel in distress story>>692544313it's not a non-issue because it shouldn't have happened in the first place, you buying the game justifies them in their choices
>>692545047This is a whole lot of schizophrenia, but imagine if for some reason the next game Amy is all lovey dovey about Sonic again. I think people would still seethe for inconsistency.
>>692545138>imagine if for some reason the next game Amy is all lovey dovey about Sonic again. I think people would still seethe for inconsistency.rightfully so if they keep flip-flopping on this shit
YOU CAN TAKE ANOTHER LIFE LONG TRYYOU CAN TAKE ANOTHER TRYYYYYYYYYYY

>>692545454HEY! -ELECTRIFYING SOLO-
If I may interject and say Iizuka explicitly mentioned Shadow loved Maria at a con a few months ago.
>>692539746You know in the 2nd episode of the Shadow Animation. There is a cute thing that happens when she first appears.Her eyes are dull and have no shimmer. But the second she sees Shadow they are brighter and have shimmer.
I like how Shadow's White World has Sonic Frontiers actives instead of being a simple 2D plane.
holy shit the thebalishchannel's streaming this. i thought that nigga died

Am I retarded for actually being tempted to buy the PC version after how much I enjoyed emulating the Switch version over the weekend?
>>692547540What the fuck. Why?
>>692547797I pretty much use switch versions to see if I like a game or not If it's good then I buy it for real

Americans are unironically mindbroken.
IT WAS ALL ME SHADOW!
ALL HAIL CHADOW HEROES RISE AGAIN
>>692547964Fuck it, I'm doing it. I got some money for my birthday recently anyway.>>692548735lmao I had nearly the same experience just now with another streamer. He was seething about how "that side of twitter" was talking about the censorship in the game. I can't believe there are people like that.
I like how the overwolrd theme is a sad version of "all haill... chadow... bros... will we rise again???
>>692548954>will we rise again???You bet your ass we will. I have a tremendous feeling of optimism and confidence in the future of this series right now.
>>692548954It's a sad version because you'll go insane trying to find all the collectables.
>in this ITT
>>692548429ok thats pretty cool. Already played the switch version but this makes PC much more enticing
The Playstation exclusive Dark Beginnings "deleted" footagehttps://streamable.com/66ffb6
>>692548954>beat the game>go to Sonic’s birthday>”Sonic, this is your day… All Hail Sonic”and you can’t say this is unreasonable, flynn would unironically write this
>>692549263I got it on PlayStation, I’m guessing you find this in the digital artbook? Do other versions get that shadow backstory recap above new game?
>>692549318Switch has the backstory recap so i assume they all have it
Has anyone gotten their Saturn code yet? I’m guessing I gotta wait until actual release for it. Only done some Shadow levels so far but it’s really fun, this is the most fun I’ve had with a Sonic game since Mania.
>>692549192I'd like to know the source where this is from.
For those who want that Classic Sonic skin for free you have to signup to Sega's newsletter. Offer lasts until Nov 1 https://sonicxshadowgenerations.com/emailsignup/index.html
>>692549263that's it? what's the deal with Sega not letting shadow be actually depressed on camera? even in the ending of this game he actually tears
>>692549263that's nice, probably would've made for a neat post-credits scene
>>692549318You gotta download the Dark Beginnings add on. It's 15 fucking GB on PS5. It's on Shadow's menu. It plays after the credits of Dark Beginnings
Why are there live-related purchases if they took lives out for the re-release???
>>692549474https://x.com/Hillbdub44004/status/1848449302902763552
>>692549562Lives can be toggled back on in settings
the game is really great but the ending didn't help that much,this game needed to be separated from generations so their story wouldn't be affected by the other because "le sonics need to win" the whole change stuff was a lieI hope Sega expands shadow movement for frontiers 2 and add him for the game
>>692549539>15 gigabytesThankfully I bought a 2TB SSD two weeks ago. 15 fucking gigabytes… that shit better be in 4K a lot of movies 1080p movies I have downloaded are like 14 gigabytes or so.

God Shadow's JP voice is so much better
>>692547418You lying slut
>>692547418I fucking wish
>>692544313you dont see a problem with buying games that have been specifically fucked with for weird cultish reasons that you have to fix yourself right out of the gate?
>>692549606>don't like pointless alterations to a game that were clearly made to appease some modern audience consultancy scam>wow you must be a filthy coomer haha why don't you jerk off to porn you fricking loser chudevery time
I LIVE for DEI consultancy. It's what I'm all about.
I really liked the new Mephiles voice. The VA did a great job at capturing his desperation as the fight went on.
>>692550735He's no Dan Green
>>692531252Baaaaaaaaaased. Shadouge? Fucking CANON.
>>692550789Of course but he still manages to be an accurate portrayal of Mephiles I’d say.
>>692549925>Same voice since sa2 Gotta love seiyuu
Cute, you can disable Drop Dash for Classic Sonic if you really wanted to. Not for Modern Sonic, though, for some reason. They had the capability to do more with this system and remaster, they simply didn't think to.Also you can easily access the statue room with a button press now and I think it gives you all the statues from the get-go.
Platinuming Gens on PS3 back in the day was the time of my life. I'm gonna enjoy getting all the cheevos all over again plus the ones for Shadow. No regrets.
>>692551179Yeah. There's no grind. There's a PS4 version too. Probably will do that whenever I feel like playing again
>>692546369>I AM SILLY
>>692551179>Took me forever to get the no hits trophy against time eater>Because I thought hitting a rock counted as a hit so I kept starting over
>>692551396same, never got that trophy for this exact reason
Sega needs to make up with Kenneth W. Penders II and let him write a Sonic game. It would be kino, you must admit.
>>692551827>Gets to write the knuckles solo game
The drop dash is actually a huge boon to classic sonic in this game. Makes him feel a lot less sluggish
The Shadow parts control like absolute shit compared to the Sonic ones and their level design is linear ass in comparison. Wtf happened to Sonic Team starting with Forces? Why does the whole game move like you're playing on a D-Pad? Why are there now 20 different controller actions to pad out going straight?
>>692552013t. only played one level
can anyone confirm the game runs fine >60fps on PC? No jump height glitches or anything like the original?
>the games make a big deal about Maria's baby sister>the game has movie DLC>they're going to introduce more human characters in the games so the movies have less expensive characters to adaptWAKE UP, SHEEPLE
>>692552013>Wtf happened to Sonic Team starting with Forces?Anon, most of the devs got reassigned to elsewhere in the company or left. Starting with Lost World, most of Sonic Team was composed of new hires, and then those new hires became the lead designers that directed even more new hires. Fundamentally, besides folks like composers, directors and producers plus some veteran staff here or there lingering around, Sonic Team post-Generations is not even remotely the same as the Sonic Team pre-Lost World.
>>692552093>>692548429
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EguvUh3TvGU>This doesn't get to be in Generations
>>692552183does it cap at 120 or can it go higher
>>692552093Both games can run 120fps, and honestly there's no weird bugs or quirks or anything so far, they run smooth as butter besides like, the Doom sections on my crappy computer not being able to reach 120 consistently.
>>692552213Someone else will have to answer. My potato deck can't go that high :^)
>>692552312steam deck player? how does the game run on theredeciding between steam deck and switch
>>692552093Only Shadow Gens has 120fps support, Sonic is locked at 60
>>692552349Runs great. For Shadow gens I had to lower it from the default settings to hit a locked 60 though. Other than that, it runs great. Switch is locked to 30 of course. Having played the Switch version over the weekend and now playing it on Deck, the difference is night and day. You really want higher frame rates for this kinda game if you have the option.
>>692539746Yes it's supposed to be a reference to that 06 scene
Did they buff classic sonic's spindash in this, or am I mandella effecting myself? It feels WAY faster than it used to be. It's been years since I played Gens though.
>>692521779LMFAOOO ASPIE FAGGOT GOT MAD AT NOTHING BURGER MENIAL CHANGES
Every level has some shitty Dr. Strange segment and is basically just Sonic Forces all over again. Glad I didn't pay for this trash.
>>692553372Classic's Spin Dash was always gamebreakingly absurd, you just got mandela effect'd
uh so Sonic's World and the world of Maria are the same? I always thought Gerald travelled to a different dimension with the ARK and Robotnik did the same years later.how does it even make sense for furry civilization to exist in the same place as humans?
>>692553689They stick to the islands and areas separate from the main human civilization areas and cities. Sonic's World shit was said by Iizuka because he just says dumb shit and then the Tailstube stuff corrected that.
>>692553689its a fucking mess and no one cares anymore. sonic x used to be canon and now "everything is canon xd"at this point if you are invested in sonic games for the story, you are a lost cause
>sonic x used to be canonliar
Ok the scene with classic sonic and knuckles they rewrote to remove "fat shaming" is actually unintentionally hilarious now and it backfired for Ian.>knuckles: where's the rest of my island?>classic sonic: *pats stomach and looks sad*He ate Angel Island, the fat fuck
>>692553820it offered some kind of explanation why the human world and mobius existed, but the show sucked.
>>692553797eh at least Shadow's story is cool. I like him a lot.
>>692553891>mobius
Sucks to be Shadow. He couldn't save Maria a second time and Rouge's tits got nerfed yet again.At this point he should just marry Amy and become a family man.
>>692520878Maybe I'm in my honeymoon phase rn but it genuinely does feel like the best boost sonic game. There was too much kino for me to process. The writing and story was fun, and this was the best level and environmental design as seen since... generations.I do feel like some of the writing changes in base gens was a bit unnecessary. I liked liked some stuff like the time stone reference and tails recognizing green hill, but there were also some dialog changes that didn't add anything and made some of the body language even more awkward and weird, like classic sonic unintentionally implying that he ate angel island.Shadow gens on the other hand had really good writing and story beats all around , nothing ground breaking but def more of what I wanted from the sonic series; for the franchise to take itself somewhat seriously. I've always been a huge fan of Ian Flynn's writing and direction for the series. The ending where Shadow had to say his final goodbye to Maria and Gerald is a pretty good tear-jerker. and the entire boss fight with black doom was nothing short of epic......I want more of this stuff. I pirated the game 4 days in advance, beat it, and bought it on steam. mainly because the switch version sucks, but I also want to vote with my wallet here. the game is gas.
>>692521071>it's real
>>692531252YO HE GOT THAT BAT BUSSY?????
>>692553689>Nah dude, Wisps live on Sonic's World now>What do you mean "Invasive species?" All Wisps are friendlyThe lore only makes sense if Forces gets deleted, which they'll never do
>>692554159That's the fault of a now-dead mobile game that handwaves that some Wisps stayed behind.
Do we have names for those new Black Arm enemies?
>>692554053>Maybe I'm in my honeymoon phaseEven if it is a honeymoon phase, at the end of the day I'm enjoying it more and having more FUN than I ever did with Forces or Frontiers.
so is Eggman in his 40s since he was born after both Gerald and Maria died? otherwise it would be kind of a dick move if Gerald never wrote about the cute egg-shaped baby.
>>692554053agree it really is good. If anything my opinion of og gens has gone down a bit, now that I'm revisiting it. It's still great fun but classic sonic is really off and modern sonic is way more slippery/janky than I remember him being. The cutscenes have not aged well, rewrites or notshadow gens on the other hand, feels like it was made for 2000's nostalgiafags like me. Actual cutscenes, a hub world that improves on frontiers' open zone concept, and really fun levels. I was worried the new levels would pale in comparison to the old ones, but I kinda like them better. Boss fights are a huge step up from the clunky bullshit in gens.
>Oh please, there’s no way you’re gonna beat us, not with Sonic 2 up in here
I have been whoring myself at McDonald's bathrooms. Should I use my steam gift cards on this right now or wait until a sale? I already have gotten enough gift cards to buy Yakuza Pirates and MH: Wilds.
>>692554536Take the money you were gonna waste on MH: Wilds and buy the deluxe edition of this right now.
>>692554571Is there any other bonus besides early access?
>>692554631You can read the store page yourself nigger
Finished it.It was pretty good.Rail Canyon and Sunset hills sucks. The rest of the 3D stages were good.The 2D Act2 stages were surprisingly really good.Why does doom love radical highway so much
>CHADow won againSHITnic bros...
>>692554798kek
>>692554631Just save your bucks to buy cream for your prolapsed anus.
>>692554441Modern Sonic's slipperiness and jank isn't really a factor once you submit yourself to the speedrun meme and realize that Sonic isn't actually supposed to care about precision. Because the entirety of Modern Sonic's purpose in boost games is to always keep moving forward. This is why most of his abilities are designed to let you immediately snap to a given direction. The stomp, the air boost, the quick-step, these are all tools you're given so that you don't actually have to maneuver Sonic all that much manually. You're actually not all that reliant on the joystick at all.
Does Black Bull make an appearance?
>>692542182>Super Sonic 2 is a brief limit break. He'll surpass it in base form eventually.No he won't, unexplained base form wank shit writing ended after generations. He's back to needing chaos emeralds for actual threats.>>692542264> Sonic defeated a concept with it,Even shitty Ian flynn said The end was just mostly boasting. All it defeated was a civilization, and then got trapped in cyberspace for centuries, he's weak.
>>692542182SHITnic hasn't beaten anything stronger than Perfect Chaos in base form.
>>692534925He based shadow on the angel island mural which depicts sonic. So he kind of knows him.
>>692555123I don't think it's unexplained. Fun fact, in the files for I think Sonic Unleashed, boost is referred to as a Chaos ability. It's a legit magic power he can use as he pleases now. Sonic couldn't Boost in Sonic Adventure and now he can.
>>692546221>shitty lolcow twitter screencapgo back
The part in Speed Highway that says "up and down and all around". As a kid I thought it said "cruisin' on my hoveround".
Maria should have been a cute boy!
>>692553689it's been confirmed for a while now that everything takes place on the same planet.animal freaks live on small islands, humans live on large continents.
I only played the ark levels and a bit of the Heroes level and the level design seems pretty meh, it feels like it's just straight corridorsDo the later levels get better
>>692555425Yeah, everything after Sunset hills is good, which is the 3rd level.
>>692555421What are you a shotacon?>>692555425yes they get better. Those levels get better on replays too when you explore and find the alternate paths
>>692555460yes, I am. I want more cute boys in vidya.
>>692555498I don't believe you. Post more cute boys to prove you really are.
>Chaos IslandWell that's a stretch. I don't remember shadow being in Frontiers at all.
>>692555425>it feels like it's just straight corridorsAre you blind? There's clearly a bunch of paths that you can't get on a single run.
>>692555249he's not a lolcow
>>692552013Sega doesn’t give a fuck about Sonic. Fatlus is bringing them the big bux and sonic team needs to be dismantled and destroyed.
>>692553689It basically has anime logicThe animals live in the same world as humans just becauseIt's like one piece or early db.
Who said "Yeah Rail Canyon let's do that one, the kids will love a level where you just sit on grind rails for 4 minutes"
>>692555692I wouldn't have minded Hang Castle.
>>692555586he's the very definition of a shitty lolcow, one of the first ones
Did Mephiles always sound like a teenager? Haven't played 06.
>>692555887He was voiced by Yami Yugi in 06.
>>692555887No lmaohttps://youtu.be/DTT1xPs5ys0?si=IKbIq7zCSUrjJrdI&t=83
Whoever the current Shadow actor is is terrible. Every other one has been great but he doesn't even feel like the same character as he was in SA2 which this game tries to hard to connect to and revere. He sounds like a guy at a bar trying to make a joke about Vegeta
>>692555123>>692555224I think boost just replicated the process of what Super Sonic in adventure could do when inside Perfect chaos and that's just Perfect Chaos's hidden weakness. Beating him in the same way doesn't mean powerscaling autism. Though this is just speculation. Shadow's Doom powers and Sonic's generations feats are probably going to be explained down the line as some chaos mumbo jumbo enhanced stuff to explain the "le base form vs emerald amped characters" shit. Or that Time eater could only bring back a fragment everyone's power that you face off in the game.
>They actually added a Frontiers island
duh verdict:the shadow parts are good but the sonic parts are pointlessly censored and shitty
>>692553608What levels and what the hell is a Dr. Strange segment?
>>692556152and it was basedhas anyone uploaded act 2's theme yet, it's really good
>>692556153Yeah, it’s ass. Pointlessly coddling things that weren’t even offensive in the first place. I want Knuckles to fat shame classic Sonic god damn it.
>>692556163The first 3 Act 1 stages have a segment near the end where Doom appears and makes you play radical highwayDoom loves radical highway, it's his favorite level from sonic adventure 2.
>>692556152And it had no story relevance whatsoeverNo character acknowledges it
>>692556292Damn that's funnyThey turned the bridge into a doom bossLol
Biggest flaw of Shadow Generations is that S ranks are way too easy.
I really hope Shadow Gens is as moddable as Sonic Gens was. I WANT MORE LEVELS
Why the fuck is Black Doom using Radical Highway as his weird dimension space, anyway? Why not the Black Comet or literally anything from his own game?
>>692556627I C O N I C
>>692556627Because Black Doom is actually Sonic Team reusing shit
>>692556627He's now radical so he doesn't like his own game anymore.He went from edgy to radical.
>>692520878I hate the Amy character assassination generation changes.
>>692556627He fucking loves radical highway.It's probably because it's Shadow's first official stage so it's like his green hill zoneThe journals confirm that Maria has a sister. I wonder if they are going to do something with that.
>>692556795People keep saying this is the death of the character, but the character was already dead, this is just spitting on the remains. At this point it's hard to care anymore, especially with all the fuckwits on Twitter trying to grift about it.
>>692556912>griftThat's their word. Don't give it validation by using it.
>>692520878>Shadow isn't bothered one bit by Sunset Heights???????So they just put the stage there for the sake of it? How come he didn't react to this shit he's never seen before?
>>692556830Probably nothing. A 50 year old hag probably isn't gonna have a major role in a Sonic game.
>>692557069Probably the same reason he doesn't react to Chaos Island, like how the plot sorta "stops" in Generations after the first era besides an occasional scene or so: the devs just threw shit in there to have a level list.
>>692557069>>692557148He probably just assumes they're supposed to be for Sonic. I mean everything the Time Eater's doing mostly sort of revolves around Sonic. Chaos Island is probably just something that should have been for Sonic's side "leaking" onto his side.
>>692557285we need to jump more mental gymnastics.it's why sky rail was in frontiers.Sonic and Shadows brains are melting together because of the time eater stuff.
>Sonic looks directly at the screen>THE TIME STONES???kek
>Shadow Generations: 80>Spongebob Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated: 68KEKYPOW! REDDITBOB LOST!
Watched the Mephiles fight in Japanese. Mephiles screaming YAMI NO MEFIRESU!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAsM5ow1Dl8
>>692551390Yes you are little autist, yes you are.
>>692557447Well both lines are dumb honestly.>og line: How did this happen???>when it's very obviously the strange time-warping monster fucker>new line: Without the Time Stones?>just dropping in a CD reference on the spot without prompting because time
>No Dan Green as MephilesYa blew it
>>692557594The new voice isn’t bad at all.
I really liked the final boss fight
>We don’t get to fight Sonic and Silver as CHADow Why?
He's still a sniper.GET FUCKED SEGAGET FUCKED IAN
>>692557592Eh the original made sense because even if he knows it's the monster he still doesn't know how the monster did it
>>692557594Is he even still alive / doing voice acting?>>692557806I get they didn't want him to fight Sonic, to maintain consistency with the original gens, but there's no reason why Chadow shouldn't have been allowed to roundhouse kick that bitch Silver
Anons I might be retarded how do I go straight up vertically in squid form with the tether points?
>>692557069>>692557148>>692557285He does react to it. You have to talk to Gerald about it.
>>692557953They could just fight like normal and lose in a cutscene. It feels weird to not have it at all.
When did Black Doom get Space-Time powers? That mirror Dimension bullshit isn't the Time Eater he sisd he's the one in control.
when does it happen? i have to know when i need to screenshot
>>692557964Release the button when you're directly below the tether point. You're not retarded, the game never explains this
>Shadow was originally based off Vegeta (Terios at least)>Silver was based off Trunks>Shadow is Lancelot and Silver is Galahad>Lancelot is Galahad's father>Iizuka: Shadow isn't Silver's father.Why?
>>692520878Don't buy it. Download it. Or better yet. Go find a copy for Xbox 360. Don't pay for this trash.
>>692558007He's always had them. That's what Chaos Control is.
>>692557985I haven't found Gerald I thought I needed Doom Morph first to reach him and Maria. Thanks for the tip.
>>692558047either the 2nd or 3rd radical highway doom experience
>>692558000That would be LUDONARRATIVE DISSONANCE
>>692558047In Act 2 of Space Colony Ark. Then you don't get to use Doom Wings again until the end of the game for Radical Highway. It's weird.
>>692540964Canon is... whatever you want it to be son.
How long do I have to wait before there's a mod to undo the censorship? Furthermore, will it be on a usable site, or a trash site like nexus? I never modded Gens so I don't know what to expect.
>>692558076>That's what Chaos Control is.I don't see Shadow warping space like he's Infinite. Everyone who's used Chaos Control before can only teleport or stop time. Black Doom is legit using a pocket dimension thst he can drag people into somehow.
>>692558090Gerald and Maria are near Sunset Heights. Make sure you go back to everybody anytime some major change has happened in the hub world. They all get new dialogue each time. That also includes before getting the final Doom Power and before the final boss.
I guess I'll ask this here also. Does anyone know if I can use the d-pad to control Classic Sonic and do the trick system in this new version of Sonic Generations? I swear it was in the original.
>>692558213Black doom is an alien so he probably has more chaos control in the dna or something
>>692558058Shit okay thanks anonThat feels really weird to me but I think I got it now, I thought I missed something in its tutorial
>>692558213Yeah, because Doom is the source of how Shadow got his and he's thousands of years old at least. Of course he can do that. Also, you forgot to mention using Chaos Control for time travel, which Gerald ends up bringing up if you talk to him in the hub world later.
>>692558228Control Classic? YesDo the trick system? I don't know. I've never tried that or heard of it being a thing in the OG.
>>692541969I've seen plenty of anime where aishiteru was used between family so that's bullshit.
>>692558378For whatever reason it's only letting me control those aspects with the analog stick, I don't know how to fix it and the options don't help at all.
>>692558216>Make sure you go back to everybody anytime some major change has happened in the hub world.I see Sega is taking inspiration from Miyazaki now.
>>692557869Fang victory.
>>692555224Damn no wonder tails just gave up
>>692558228I think you're right. You could in the original. This is really weird, when I try to remap the controls in the game's settings, it treats the dpad and analog stick as the same, but the dpad still doesn't do anything in game outside of menus. Even then, that wouldn't be acceptable since the game won't let you have multiple buttons bound to the same action, so mapping movement to the dpad would disable the analog stick entirely. If you're on PC, you can map your dpad to the analog stick with Steam Input I guess.
>>692558216Why are they near Sunset Heights of all places
>>692558228Yes you can use the dpad for classic sonicI never tried to trick with the dpad though
>>692558504Have a nice fall you stupid bitch!
>>692546221Man who cares. With or without erect quill Santiago is still Santiago. That model needs to be trashed completely.
>>692558531How? I'm not that anon, but I'm having the same problem as him
>>692558401I have too, but usually in ones where there's lots of subtlety or heavily implied incest. Or just straight up incest.Honestly, Ian and Sega forcing a "sibling bond" narrative just makes putting Shadow and Maria together even hotter.
>>692558597I'm new. QRD on why you call him Santiago?
>>692558520Cause that's where Maria gets attacked in the overworld by some Black Arms mooks before Shadow curbstombs them.
>>692556627SHADOW... YOUR FIRST STAGE IN THE GAME "SONIC ADVENTURE 2" IS PRETTY EPIC... I WILL USE IT FOR OUR FINAL BATTLE.
>>692556627>Shadow...you're power has increased dramatically. I'm eager to see the limits of your newfound power in our final encounter. Meet me at RADICAL HIGHWAY, also known as the first SHADOW STAGE from SONIC ADVENTURE 2.
>>692558709"Santiago" is the term used for the cutesy ball of fluff "Sonic" SEGA has been pushing as the "Classic" version of the character since 2011 as opposed to the cool hero with an attitude he was in the 90s. Besides the glaring personality traits his most distinguishing feature is his DISGUSTINGLY bright blue quills which Sonic was never seen with until Generations.
>>692558604I switched the controls to legacy, maybe it's that
>>692559187As the original one asking I've been playing on Legacy and that doesn't affect anything with the d-pad.
Modern Seaside Hill is such a good level it's actually fucking obnoxious.
>>692559150>attitudeMost of Sonic's classic era art is of him in cutesy, bubbly images.
>>692559187As the one you're replying to, legacy doesn't affect the dpad for me either. What platform are you on? I'm on PC.
Cool stuff.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZKv9vYiKxc>>692559345It and Speed Highway Act 2 are my favorite Modern Sonic levels.
>Knuckles calling Sonic, their crown jewel fatReasonable change>Sonic putting his hands on Amys faceReasonable change>Covering the furry baitReasonable change
>>692559578>It and Speed Highway Act 2 are my favorite Modern Sonic levels.Based taste
so in a way are the 2d shadow stages kinda the closest we'll get to a new sonic rush game?
>>692559391on switch, dpad can be used for movement and tricks in gens. (not in shadow)
>>692520878>Don't mind me, I'm just a fox sitting on a bench.
I finished the game and now I'm done for the night and wow was it short. Sonic fans getting suckered once again lol.
>>692559787Ian REALLY went too far with this reference
is the pc port capped at 60?
>>692559810Wait till you learn how short the Genesis games are, zoom zoom
>>692559823God damn, please tell me that's real.
>>692559810>4 hoursThat's not bad. Sonic Mania is 5 hours.
>>692559345>>692559578I like Chemical Plant Act 2 as well.>Green Hill Act 2: It's okay. Good introductory stage. Does its job. Nothing special.>Chemical Plant Act 2: Does a great job of modernizing Chemical Plant, and also does an excellent job of introducing alternative pathways to the player.>Sky Sanctuary Act 2: Pretty good. I kinda feel like much of its charm simply comes from it being a 3D rendition of Sky Sanctuary. >Speed Highway Act 2: One of the best stages. Can't go wrong with this shit.>City Escape Act 2: ...I mean, it's basically just City Escape. It's just City Escape with Boost. It's basic as hell witch is kinda dumb because this is the midway point. Very little complexity, not that interesting. Boarding down the steep inclining streets again is kinda cool, but it's still not that interesting.>Seaside Hill Act 2: The other best stage. Fusing it with Ocean Palace was an excellent choice.>Crisis City Act 2: "It's okay I guess. I don't really like that parts where you have to stomp a bunch of times on the lava platforms. They don't really add anything to the game, they just exist to slow you down in a really boring way.>Rooftop Run Act 2: It's just Rooftop Run again. I mean Rooftop Run in Unleashed was really great, but. This is literally just fucking Rooftop Run again.>Planet Wisp Act 2: It's shit. Worst stage. Worst final level. I hate it. Overall, I don't think it was really possible for Sonic Generations to end on a high note because it was destined to end with Colors. But aside from that, I think the other weak point of the game was City Escape.
It was really enjoyable shadow felt really good to control like a refinement on the foundation frontiers set. The story was fun and it's nice to see Shadow being a character again and not just Vegeta the Hedgehog Kirk Thornton definitely felt way more natural as the character than he had before probably because he finally got some worthwhile material to work with and the boss fights were all really cool
Total Shadouge domination
>>692520878Onions shit
OP pic feels like AI sloppa
Did you only lose some of your rings when you got hit in the original, or did you lose all of them? This game keeps fucking mandella-ing me
>>692560254Also were the timers for the side missions always this lenient?
>>692560067Shadow even smiles twice. Once when seeing Big the Cat. The other when talking to Maria.
>Get to the blushing line>It's just because Maria said his spines are cool
>>692560458Of all the characters negatively impacted by the meta era i honestly think shadow got it the worst so seing actual improvement is genuinely satisfying and makes me hopeful for a future where sonic can be allowed to take itself seriously while still having fun
>>692529762Based. No more. Absolutely overreact and don't stop until this shit does completely.
>>692529762None of your arguments are valid
>>692529762You and I are the same in the way that we have our own styles and we won't change.
>>692542997>Ian hasn't slipped any mention of them into his work.motherfucker wanted to put hyper sonic in frontiershe would totally do that if they let him
>>692521316That's the point. They're rivals for sport, not out for each other's blood. Dante and Vergil for kids
Ok how the fuck am I supposed to go to some of those paths where they expect me to launch straight up from one of the stupid squid swingshot targets
>>692561851Let go of the jump button at the BOTTOM of your swing. Yes, it's retarded. In any other game you'd just fall down. No, the game never explains it.
>>692561896Holy fuck that's retarded. They learned fucking nothing from the Frontiers DLC
