Honestly, the idea of a momentum based platformer is... kind of fucking stupid. If you think about it, you're basically controlling a ball in a pinball machine. Its something thats made for 3D. its just stupid in 2D
Pinball takes place in a 2D table? Are you retarded?
>>722625670It works with good level design and a large enough screen, which old Sonic does well enough. You'd still get straight up asshole spike traps though, and the Sonic Advance games were ass for the same reasons that the MM Zero games were often frustrating.
>Hey guys this successful forty year old franchise?>Actually nobody likes it or realized that it's actually bad this whole timeThis is>A repost of 2006 era shitposting about the series>The retarded shit the fps community says about snipers to ignore that all the shills and ecelebs cheat
>>722626009>large enough screenbasically, zooming the camera out. That's always been retarded about a lot of 2d side scrollers. Megaman zero was ass for that. Every 2d sonic would be better with a bit of a zoom out too in my opinion
>>722626131Im a Sonic fan actually..I was just thinking that the momentum based 2d platformer was a hard idea to pull off, Sega made it hard for themselves, its a weird concept. It works better for the 3d games.
>>722627956If anything sounds like Sega did the best they could with limited factors.
>>722625670Is Nintendo fucking RETARDED or something, guys?
>>722627956sir you are a fake sonic fan
>>722625670I don't care, I love a good chunk of Sonic games and you can't convince me otherwise.
>>722627956What a stupid comment, games back then were pioneers what was and what was not possible.
>>722625670after studying videogames for many years I have come to the conclusion that sonic the hedgehog was the first high quality casual game in an era where most games were hard on purpose. If you set a child down and let them play super mario brothers, they will fail over and over on their first playthroughs. But a child can easily succeed in sonic. The game mechanics are extremely forgiving and the gameplay itself is very simple. This creates a strong impression in people's minds, it allows them to be 'good' at something with very little effort.>>722627956>It works better for the 3d games.it works better for something that didnt exist at the time? thats a great opinion, thanks for sharing.
