I hope Sonic CrossWorlds taste for cross-promotion didn't motivate Sega to turn Sonic into a cross-promotional slave with their next main installment. They're already doing it quite a bit outside of the games (what the fuck are they doing cross-promoting Sonic and Timberlands - these are for anything but running) and CrossWorlds could have made it appealing to use the games in the same way.

Not really. That game is just really polished and adds new things to the series unlike Sonic Racing.

Gamewarring is a thing but I don't think only Sonic fans gave Mario Kart a bad score. MKW added an open world which is new and different so not everyone will like that game.

This is the biggest baggage they carry from what the movies started out as.

They've been unwinding them from the core narrative decently and in movie 3 they really on have one scene where they're the focus (which was moderately annoying but it got out of the plot much quicker than the human nonsense from movie 2) but they're still carrying it nonetheless (Knuckles suffered greatly from having too much human in an effort to cheap out on CGI).

SONIC XTREME 30TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION
>>
>>730895590
These anniversaries tend to attract a huge crowd of weird people. And the guys that like Sonic are even weirder than usual.
>>
>>730896854
Mate, Sonic fans now think Sonic 06 is an underrated gem
They are beyond saving

>>730900141
Cut them off from their human family, also make the story darker and have sonic get some real character development that makes him more like his game counterpart and less like a tiktok obssesed zoomie.

That was my thought about Generations on release and it didn't even have the gameplay to back it up
>>
>>730901593
The people who COOM over Sonic Colors and Generations are the most prone to overrating in the community.

I'll even say Generations is a good game but I can pick it apart and cite where the game had shortfalls (and Colors is a game that is just plain "fine" at best but still treated as amazing for no reason I can ascertain beyond "it's not crap"). Generations is good by the sum of its parts, not because they nailed something about the formula that was direly missing from the years leading into it.
>>
If I hated Unleashed's day stages, will I also hate Colors?
>>
>>730902031
Colors is more about 2D platforming
>>
>>730900782
The thing is...the humans weren't written like this in the first movie. They had some good jokes here and there but after the first movie they were all dumb down because they wanted toddlers to laugh
>>
>>730902031
Colors is more restrained but still boost-focused. The Wisps are pretty gimmicky but don't feel intrusive, which is more than can be said for Sonic Lost World.
>>

I unironically have the Shadow 1TB microSD in my phone, because it was on sale during Black Friday and it was competitively priced with other 1TB cards.
Like the branding didn't matter.

Honestly though Tails should be the 1TB card he's the literal tech geek.
Alternatively, it's apt he has the 256GB card because he knows about the capacity/performance tradeoff?
>>
>>730900421
Knuckles has not been addressed as Sonic's rival in overs a decade at this point. Before he was Sonic's hotheaded meathead friend but now they are trying to rebrand him back into the loner guardian again.

>>730901098
>Mate, Sonic fans now think Sonic 06 is an underrated gem
It's more of the loud Silver fandom/cult more than anything else. They are desperate to try and make Silver actually amount to something which is funny 'cause even in announcement video both he and Sonic 06 were not referenced even once.
>>
>>730895590
well... they are still referencing Live and Learn. so maybe, MAYBE Sega and Gioelli/Crush 40 managed to reach a deal? or at least get the rights for the instrumental version just like how they have the rights for Toottoot sonic warrior and cosmic eternity?

They're shorter and you don't have shit like QTE launchers. There's more emphasis on the 2D segments. You're not gatekept by collectibles since red rings are optional and you can go back for them as you need.

There's a reason a lot of people said that Colors is the first "good" Sonic game in a while. It's basically Unleashed if you trimmed out all the fat, for better or worse. It's less "soulful" and you get shit like "Baldy Nosehair," but the game respects your time more.

Sonic Forces has such a non-plot they did the whole not-virtual-virtual-reality thing in frontiers and barely anyone noticed or cared.
>>
Frontiers was originally booked for a 2021 launch to conclude the 30th anniversary but they kicked it out a whole year to tune it up so I don't necessarily think we're getting something this year if the team hasn't been up to scratch again. Sega does, for all their faults, seem like they are serious about making sure they don't let people down (whether or not they're actually succeeding is another matter but they are thinking forward enough to evaluate and reschedule if they suspect they're not going to meet the bar).
>>
>>730907207
Forces had a 5 year development time and they somehow completely screwed the pooch. Cyberspace as a concept was cool in Shadow the Hedgehog with all the bloom and random colors. In Forces you're in cyberspace for less than a minute and it's nothing.

This is true.
People are still making the same tired jokes as if they dont apply to every fan base ever because fan bases are dogshit in general.
Literally the same jokes for 20 years and any time a sonic fan makes a criticism about anything they get bombarded by people who don't even care about sonic in the slightest come out of nowhere to say retarded shit like "sonic fans dont even like their own series!!!!" just because not everyone laps up everything the series puts out like pokemon fans do

Guys, I'm tired of being a fan of something people refuse to let me enjoy without reminding me it's mediocre.

>>730900141
Dump the humans
Play a straightforward story without any irony
Incorporate more of the individual games in every subsequent movie, Chaotix can be a full movie, Shuffle, Rush, etc.
Still haven't watched the movies, don't care to.

And make Mania 2 already, not fucking Superstars, Mania 2.
>>
>>730918265
Well when is it a sign to walk away from a game in this series? To not spend money on it?

I saw the previews of Sonic Frontiers that pissed everyone off because Sonic was just running around an open area with no real rhyme or reason but I wasn't so dense to believe that was the entire game.

Whether the entire game turned out to be something that people actually wanted is another matter but I personally got something out of it, even if structurally I thought it wasn't ideal. I don't feel like I shouldn't have spent money on the game because Sega needed to not be encouraged to produce more games of that style after doing so. Buying Sonic Forces, yeah, that was a mistake.
>>
>>730918214
just stop caring bro
Or do what I do and get into a different franchise that's seen in a better light while keeping Sonic on the backburner.
>>
>>730918312
>And make Mania 2 already, not fucking Superstars, Mania 2.

Is Trip a bad addition to the series by that tally?

>>730917227
Sega knew they had to pay those big bucks for live and learn. Too iconic to never be used agajn
>>
>>730918379
I bought Frontiers because I had the idiotic thought that it being different means it might be good, and I was wrong. I didn't buy Superstars because it looked mediocre and I'm glad about that.
I did buy Shadow Gens because it actually looked fun and I was right about that too. I just want more short, cheap, focused games like that.

Eh, I don't know what people had a problem with in Sonic Superstars. People often say the boss battles but I never really hit one that made me bang my head against the wall.

To be fair here, Sonic hasn't had a good game since Mania unless I guess you count Sonic x Shadow Generations which I don't since the new content is shorter than Forces.
>>
>>730913102
>What did he mean by this...
Those are his pet characters that he was mainly in charge of creating and likes to shove them into whatever game he can. It's why Silver was in Forces with pretty much no explanation. I think he also wanted to include Mephiles in Forces but it didn't end up happening.

Aside from Rumble and not caring about the comics or Prime, Sonic's in a pretty damn good position right now.

And her song made by the Sega Sound Team is in Crossworlds, it's very miniscule in terms of overall impact on the brand but it has been a healing factor of sorts for the Japanese side of the fandom.

I'm hyped only for Sonic Mania 2. With the classic pixels from Genesis, not the shitty 3D that only Sega wants.
>>
>>730896854
Pre Frontiers and Shadow Generations, I'd agree, but since 2022, they did everything right, Sonic is back to being a multimedia juggernaut like in the 90s, maybe not as big, but we're currently on a silver era.
>>
>>730920797
ok but I'm not arguing prices, I'm just saying that Mania doesn't offer much new content when 3/4's of the game is remixed zones.

so still shorter than Forces?

Only thing I personally want are longer quills back since the short quills don't feel right.
