The audience for Sonic might tend to be younger. Also consider the fact that fanbases built around written works usually have better writing than games shows and anime. By written I mean books. Because reading helps a lot to be a good writer, its common sense.

>Anon it's a riff on Gens, of course it has reused assets
It was fine in Gens and Mania because they are great games. I doubt Shadow Gens will be able to reach that so I'm more crritical
>What you should be asking is why Frontiers looked like shovelware
That's quite simple actually. They got a small budget and they stretched it way too tight just so they could implement a poorly designed open world to it.
>>493287631
>Ah, so you are just a retard.
How am I wrong?
>And is a short game even by Sonic standards
And that's even worse. I'm fine with asset reuse in huge open world games like Elden Ring because those games need way more assets than standard linear games.
>it looks better and higher budget
Does it really? I don't really see it
>That still doesn't mean your stupid "shovelware" statement make any more sense though.

For a pairing thats incompatible, Sonic seems pretty content enough in Mobius 25 Years Later, both Ian and penders parts. He doesn't seem to hate his life or be actively against Sally in any ways sure things aren't perfect but its still fine for that version if Sonic. Game Sonic wouldn't be able to live in a situation like that though because he's too much of a free spirit.

i didn't mind it being upbeat (so was heroes mostly) but it just felt kind of meh to me

So you don't see the improved animations, the pretty graphical effects, the overall presentation that was put into Shadow's Doom powers compared to how Wisp powers looked in the past? Again, you must be retarded not to see the obvious polish put into the Shadow portion of the game to match up with the Generaitons portion.

Sonic and Sally aren't incompatible because of that, they're incompatible because Archienic's ultimate fate was always going to be turned into stale wind paragon rolemodel Sonic by mandatees.
We joke about Ian lying but Reboot Sally was very much just a way to avoid the uncomfortable impending doom that was Sonic not being allowed to be in relatioinships because muhh fucking wind

There was nothing wrong with Archie Sonic growing up a bit and becoming a leader without Sally around though. That was good character development that fit the character well.

Shadow, you're quite impressive. I never stood a chance against Black Doom, you're the only one who can fight him. I think I finally understand how a free spirit like myself can't surpass you. I thought it was because you had something to protect. I thought your drive to protect allowed you to take advantage of your capabilities... this may have been a reason, but not I too have this drive. I fought to do as I wished, because I ove freedom and hanging with my friends. But he's different, he fights not to win but because he's the Ulitamte Lifefrom, causing him to break his limits and he really doesn't care who his opponent is. So when he didn't kill me, it was because he saw I can fight on his level, like I can now... Go Shadow, you're number one!

I've had an edgy fanfiction idea for a while where Eggman dies, creating a bad future, Silver fights Future Sage who is using Metal Sonic to create mass production Metal Sonics, and Metal slowly becomes more enraged and psychotic while Sage tries to reach out to him but eventually he just spews nothing but hatred towards her and she becomes depressed and lonely.

Iizuka said that Silver isn't related to Shadow. So he can only be descended from Sonic or/and Amy be completely unrelated to any of the present day cast.

If not related to Sonic, he's probably at least a reincarnation since he shares Sonic's ability to go Super.

It might be different but online drama is still drama and just as tedious and unwanted.
Incel kun was that depressing lost cause sort of rambling that is present in insane asylums, and rotorfag is just a faggot. He could have just been a ritualposter like espioyume but instead he has to put his gay porn addiction front and center. Otherwise he's not super interesting. I know he usually will talk a lot about rotor in the comics but he rambles to the point where it's hard to understand what he's saying sometimes.
Though in retrospect your examples aren't too bad, there are some dramafags who can be really annoying when they show up to threads. Incel kun and rotorfag generally don't derail threads like schizos

So we went directly to Shadow -- the character (with answers coming from the creators at Sonic Team) -- to get his thoughts on everything from regrets to influences to his relationship with Sonic. Check it out:
Shadow, on what distinguishes him from Sonic:
"I am relentless in my pursuit of finding the answers to my past, and in such, I would challenge anyone or anything that denies me that."
Shadow, on what distinguishes Sonic from him:
"Sonic, being the spotlight grabbing hero he is, would do anything to help you out in a pinch."
Shadow, on regrets:
"My past is shrouded in so much mystery, I hate to fathom what I could have or couldn't change. But if I could change one thing about my past, it would have to be giving my life for that of Maria's. I am forever haunted of losing someone that really cared for me, and I did nothing to stop her from sacrificing her life for mine."
Shadow, on movies:
"I really like action movies. The more mayhem the better! The Terminator series has to be one of my favorites...Arnold is just sooo cool...hasta la vista baby! Guns, explosions, high-speed action...I love it all!"
Shadow, on his good/evil choices:
"I really have no preference as to which path I follow as long as it leads me to the Chaos Emeralds. Only until I have found all of them, will I truly know what my past is."
Shadow, on his spare time:
"Play games, listen to music, skateboard, hang out with friends...the usual."
Shadow, on his favorite games:
"Madden's football series, anything with street fighting, and Burnout 3."
Shadow, on gadgets he owns:
"PSP, Nintendo DS, iPod, and a Razor cell phone. I am one hooked up hedgehog."
Shadow, on food:
"Pizza, Doritos, Snickers, anything mobile...also a big fan of Hot Pockets. "

I feel like Iizuka has made it his mission to make sonic as purposefully ambiguous as possible, not only to keep the fans from killing eachother but because Sonic is a muse, and as such he's supposed to be like of open for interpretation. Thats why he can't date or be overly emotional and shit. Him being enigmatic allows the fans to kind of play around with who sonic is in their own way.
I think mario is similar but most people don't give a fuck about marios character other than bing bing wahoo spaghetti save the princess

>Doesn't say names because it makes him sound too familiar with people
>Despite all of the above, Shadow in gameplay tends to use minor slang, compliment other characters, uses their name frequently, and shows heaps of personality he normally doesn't in cutscenes.

I have a question for sonallyfags in the thread. Like an honest question. I'm watching Satam and are Sonic and Sally... not dating?
Seriously, they just seem like friends who kiss each other. Which sounds silly, but that is a thing.
It's like they're Fred and Daphne (outside of MI).
There's even an episode where Sonic tries to claim Sally is his girl only for Sally to shoot that down. This is after they kiss in multiple previous episodes.
No "I love you"s. Never calling each other boyfriend and girlfriend aside from that single instance. Sally seems surprised the first time she thinks Sonic is hitting on her, only to realize he's talking about chilli dogs.

The mandates are obviously in place to prevent stuff from getting as bad as they did in the comics, and even though they're clearly too strict, it's clear that the writers are desperate to do everything in their power to try and dodge them and sneak things through whenever possible, so it's a necessary evil.

Which would be fine, who cares about limiting westoid writiers from putting their agenda itno the rpeople's property, but then Sonic Team doesn't advance the story of these characters themselves and then even allow retards like Flynn to write Frontiers ager allowing other "comedy" writiers to write Sonic games. They sohuld be writing the games themselves in a professional manner and then let the localizers make up shit that isn't canon to the real Japanese lore which people will always point out.

This is just a lie. Sonic has never really done well in Japan.

Sonic is designed to appeal to westerners and has always thrived in the west. Western continuities have always been incredibly beloved by many whereas any Soj has long given up on having a consistent canon for almost 2 decades, yet Soj insists on fucking with said western continuities anyway and puts 0 care in preserving them. Nor do they put any care into preserving a proper continuity of their own. Canon means nothing anymore in this franchise thanks to Soj and their mismanagement.

Sure, I'm grateful to Soj for creating Sonic, and at the end of the day Sonic is a japanese created franchise. I'd be grateful to my wife too for birthing my son but of course I'm going to resent her when she decides to beat him on the daily afterwards

I think these are all true, but from a normie standpoint the japanese references in Sonic don't really stick out because they only became obvious in the 2000s when western cartoons started taking heavy inspiration from anime

No? Sonic is inherently very much made to appeal to westerners and it shows. There's a good reason Sonic is insanely popular in the west, yet fails to have a real fanbase in Japan. Shit like dbz also has huge western appeal and eggman being a villain from a gag manga is not really a good point because saturday morning cartoon villains also exist and are basically the same thing. Sonic being cuter in Japan is also a given, of course they're going to try and make him cuter for Japanese audiences but it didn't work because surprise, Sonic was not designed to be a cute mascot for Japanese audiences.

alright but its appealing to americans in a bizarre way americans would never conceive of a felix the cat ripoff based off some obscure euro animal mixed with clinton mj and santa/christmas. same reason mother/earthbound is in america but feels different to actual american made inspired by it games.

Mohawknic and Robotnik died for a reason, just like how the Adventure and Riders models are still paraded as perfection. There's a good way to build on an original concept, and there's blatantly replacing things that you aren't able to respect and understand.

And yet despite all it's flaws, Sonic X outdoes them by a landslide. With the sub being universally seen as the better of the two as well.

Choose a continuity you like, or all of them without flaming others for their headcanons. Make your little headcanons and enjoy the characters for who they are. Don't find Sally and Sonic compatible? Then make them good friends who work together. Don't like the Satam cast or anyone from Archie? You don't have to include them.

You don't need characters to abonden their role just because you want them to be around all the time, same with Knuckles and Blaze.

I don't need those characters around all the time if they are not gonna respect their identity and role

Let’s be honest. SoJ hated the comics because they weren’t family friendly. No child or parent wants to see making out in a comic or implied sex. When you are a teenager you find this cool but now that you have children you become more conservative and realise what is good for kids or not. See how Mario succeeds?

Wind ruins Sonic and Sage ruins Eggman.
It really all comes down to which I value more.
Honestly, if I were writing a fanfiction and had to choose which one to keep, I'd probably choose Sage. I might love Eggman, but I know his role in a story as well as the franchise, and it's not as important as Sonic's. It would be painful to write Eggdadshit, but if it means that Sonic can be interesting, then so be it.
And even if Eggdad has none of the flair Eggman has, you can still do something with him, whereas Gary Stunic is a dead end.
Eggdad could maybe represent a fatherly symbol of control to clash against Sonic's freedom. Originally, Eggman represented freedom in a bad manner, he's a manchild who wants everything his way, having all of Sonic's worst traits. My Eggdad could have all of Knuckles' worst traits, as in, he's controlling, abusive, and a know-it-all to everyone except Sage, who is his favorite.
So yeah, I hate wind shit more. Sage is still shit, though.

I was playing with the idea of Sage creating a clone of Eggman to fill the void after his death. He'd have the bombastic and jovial nature of Eggman, mixed with a cold and calculating approach to how he goes about doing things. He'd be like if Hal9000 was enjoying himself far, far, too much.
Haven't really played much with his design though.

>>493305615
I never liked when certain characters are treated differently based on their source. I think all characters should be treated as equals, and yes, that means Sally being treated as an equal to characters like say Amy Rose. I feel this especially for Archie because I care a lot about Archie originals and the SatAM cast and not quite as much for IDW, but I apply the same logic to each.
Game characters should be able to lecture ocs. Comic characters should be able to do the same. Just treat them the same because there's no point in doing otherwise, make them all fit in the story.

To be honest I liked the early SoA take on Sonic better than early SoJ Sonic. Adventure and onwards all the way to 2009, I loved SoJ's take on Sonic a lot but the early stuff was too playful and too whimsical for me. I'm both a fan of Archie and the Dark Age games, and I think there should be more overlap between the two. Also I'm talking more so about stories and vibes from the games rather than actual gameplay, that's what I want from Sonic but I also want good gameplay and good ratings at the same time.
>>493306875
It depends on how both are handled but even I have limits, I think genocide might be too far but the classics simply were just too lighthearted and colorful for my taste. I prefer the grimderp SatAM much more than that, and I find JP Sonic to be less interesting than SoA 90s Sonic.

>>
>>493306229
Honestly Eggman has had the feeling of an abusive parent for a while now for the same reasons as Black Doom. The way Eggman treats his creations, praising them only when they're useful and make him look good, only to blame them for his own failures and disown them the second they fail to live up to his impossible expectations. That mixed with him seeing Shadow as his property and gaslighting him into doing as he says just because they're technically related and Shadow should listen to his elders, is another example I feel fits.

It's just "Sonic" thank you. Sega of Japan's Sonic is the character. It isn't a "Version" of the character because there are no "Versions" of reality. Just reality.

Other way around. Sage's fondness for Eggman should be used as her motivator for seeking world conquest to impress her father, which simotaniously gives him a reason to brag about her to everyone instead of scrapping her like the rest of his failed creations.

There's obviously a difference between the two, but it's clear how a villain could come to a similar conclusion.

I do call him just Sonic or the real Sonic sometimes, but I consider SoA Sonic to be a real character in its own right. He's a different character for certain, but his attributes are what makes him an interesting character. Not the original or the creator's intentions, just who 90s SoA Sonic was. He was iconic, a mascot with attitude, and together with the amazing SoA marketing and the genius gameplay from SoJ they became rivals to Nintendo. Both played a large part in Sonic's initial success.

I like both SoJ and SoA Sonic but to me, Sonic's always been a cocky slightly jerkish guy with a heart of gold and impatience. And that's fine, you can have a the true Sonic as well. I like that these different versions of Sonic exist because different people like different things.

It's tyranny in the eyes of people who have to deal with his freedom. He himself doesn't have much of a sense of duty, like Sonic. He's a big baby who wants dessert before lunch.
That's how Sonic would act if he let the intrusive thoughts take over. Which is exactly what happens with IDWnic who lets villains go free and beats up anyone who has something to say about that. He looks pretty fucking tyrannical when looking down at Surge, but he's just doing what he wants, and what he wants is be a fucking idiot.
>>493307258
>praising them only when they're useful and make him look good, only to blame them for his own failures and disown them the second they fail to live up to his impossible expectations
I imagine that akin to a kid throwing away a toy the second it gets a tiny piece broken, and lying just to feel on top, like how he did by betting on Beta before Gamma and him fight, and then telling Gamma he always believed in him when Gamma wins.
>Shadow
Yeah, evil kids gaslight people all the time. They feel powerless in an adult's world so they act like devilish little shits. But Eggman could very well be an abusive parent, as you've stated. I'd have no problem with Sage if Eggman actually was IC and treated her like he treats his other robots.
>>493307515
>cause he wants to create a world for her as well
That's the major problem, though. Eggman is an egocentric. He has his face plastered everywhere and on everything. He creates robots because he hates dealing with other people, and when he does do that, it's either through trickery or enslavement. He never wants to share the spoils. His empire is called the "Eggman Empire".
Having him want to do anything for anyone other than him is just spitting in the face of all that. Little Timmy doesn't wanna give half of the cake, he wants all of it.
>>

Creating a child isn't the OOC part, it's how he treats the child and his reasoning for doing so that's OOC. We've seen how he treated the E-Series, Metal, and Shadow, he's a terrible person and an even worse parent.

I feel the better word here is "loose" rather than "bad". I think if SoJ used its strategies at marketing in the US, it would've not been successful because their early marketing was just weird and it didn't really fit western sensibilities either.
I get wanting to protect original vision, which is why I take the middle position. Even if it meant we wouldn't have something like SatAM or Archie, SoA should've localized and changed up their marketing strategy to make it fit their culture while SoJ oversaw them, but making sure they didn't deviate too much from the source. That way, the marketing could have been successful and the creator's original intentions were respected.

I think he's way past cool. Even if it is very 90s I find him really fun. True Sonic feels a little bland, if we're going by his characterization in 06 and Unleashed. I prefer many alternate takes on his character. Such as Black Knight Sonic (slightly different than JP Sonic), SA2 Sonic (also slightly different than JP Sonic), Archie Sonic, SatAM Sonic, and stuff like that.

I'm a borderline everythingfag who wants to cram as many characters from this series together since I can see the potential in most if not all of them. I'm also admittedly obsessed with canon characterizations and am a ludicrous sparky disciple, windfag, and eggdad/egghitler hater who prefers sonic as a cool dude and force of nature rather than a flawed hero.

Story is a slow return to tonal form after a decade long trip-up because they tried to make Sonic for fucking babies.
Music was hit-or-miss, personally I don't think Lo-Fi fits the series and it was overall too electronic, but I can appreciate people who liked it. Dear Father is a nuclear warhead to the feels, especially if you want a family but will realistically never have one.
Gameplay was alright.
Combat was irredeemable dogshit that makes Werehog stages look outstanding in comparison.
World and aesthetic design is easily arguable as the worst in the entire franchise history (literal floating rails in a tech demo field that clip into existence, repeat in all areas) (yes, worse than Lyric). The franchise just isn't built for true open world in the way they attempted, and it has no clear stylistic throughline. Even the cyberspace looks like it was ripped from Forces, and it was shit there.

Hard disagree. Just because I love Archie's take on Sonic as well as the early 90s American Sonic as well. Also I'm a big Sonally fan. I think other takes on Sonic should be allowed to exist, just not to replace the original Sonic or displace him.

I like Frontiers. I like Eggdad. I like Iizukadow. Definitely an everythingfag.
I'm fine with the movies. I like most of Archie, but the parts of it I hate are the parts of it everyone hates.
Sonic X is my favorite TV series, Knuckles is my least favorite, but I like Wade.
I personally gravitate towards the mid-to-late 2000s Sonic games above all. Shth to Black Knight. The 4kids Era.
I like Chris. I like Antoine.

What do you mean by "Windnic"? Do you mean the cool aspirational figure? Windfags really just fucking suck all the life out of any possible character Sonic might have.
"Oh he's a free-spirit? So maybe he could be seen badly in the eyes of societ--" "Nah everybody loves him cause he's sooooo cool!"
"Okay, so if he's so cool and with the flow, maybe he could act a bit uncaring towards his friend--" "NAH! He's also kind and courageous and everything nice! Yeah!"
"Okay, so if he's so kind, maybe he could like, have some insecurit--" "NAAAAAAH! He's JUUUUUUST perfectly selfless enough to be kind and JUUUUUUUST perfectly selfish enough to be confident and GOD HE'S JUST SO PERFECT I WANNA SUCK MY BLUE--ERR I MEAN HIS BLUE COCK HAHA, IM NOT SELF-INSERTING I SWEAR"
And I don't mind perfect characters when they're used well, I don't mind that at all. One Punch Man is one of my favorite fucking satires partly because of how well it handles Saitama. Saitama isn't the MC by any metric. The story focuses disproportionately on the side characters because they're the ones with the stakes in the game. They're the ones who need all the attention and to develop. Saitama is simply the punchline, he comes in at the end for a joke or inspires other heroes to get better, but he's never the main focus.
You want Sonic to be le perfect inspiration? Fine. But actually have him fit that role and put him on the sidelines so the people who are inspired by him can develop in the limelight.
BUT NOOOOOO AHHAHAHAHHHA IT'S CALLED "SONIC THE HEDGEHOG", WHERE IS SONIC? ISN'T THIS COMIC CALLED SONIC? WHY ARE THERE SIDE CHARACTERS AND OCS? HAHAHHAHAHA I WANT TO WATCH SONIC BEING PERFECT FOR 10 HOURS STRAIGHT, THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT.

Sonic can be written a thousand different ways and Windfags choose the worst possible one.

Enlightened post.

ST is seemingly unable to learn their lessons from their repeated failures of using the *entire* cast all at once (see Forces). What people want are stories which focus on specific characters and ignore the ones that don't need to be there; not everyone needs to be on screen all the same time. I'd eather eat STEAK every day than suffer through all of Sonic's shitty friends all at once. Same situation with team autism; people want to see unorthodox pairings like pic related instead of the same old teams.

Although to be fair I think this cast bloat is a consequence of protracted development cycles, over budgeting, and an overall aversion to risk. You can't really give different characters the spotlight when you only make 1 game every few years. The solution IMO is smaller projects; to their credit the comics (both Archie and IDW) excel at and don't fall into these pitfalls as frequently.

Basically we need Rush style games which focus on specific characters.

That IS the way Sonic should be used and that's where the other characters like Tails, Amy, Knuckles, etc should come in.

Sonic 2 is all about Tails, Sonic CD uses Amy and Metal to further expand the core premise between Sonic & Eggman, Sonic 3 is all about the "& Knuckles", Rush is all about Blaze. Sonic Adventure is about Tails, Amy, Knuckles, Gamma, Big, but most of all, Tikal & Chaos. Sonic Adventure 2 is about Shadow. '06 is about Elise and Silver. Unleashed is about Chip. And the list goes on. Even Black Knight, where Sonic's own character is at the forefront, uses Caliburn to bounce off of him and have a clear developmental arc that reflects Sonic's impact on the world and such.

The way that Sonic SHOULD be used is having the actual story focus be on everyone else around him, and how Sonic's actions impact and shape their lives.

Like the original Mary Garnet or Marie Granette stories, for example, shifts the narrative focus on everyone EXCEPT Sonic. It uses those other characters around him to highlight the mysterious aura that surrounds that test pilot and the mascot on the back of his flight jacket.

he was sad about it but yes. Mecha killed herself on Eggman's orders. Eve killed herself because she killed trillions. Sage killed herself to protect Eggman. All three (3) Eggdaughters committed suicide.
Though just like Sage, it is shown that she can revert into a computer code when her body is destroyed, so she could get lucky. Ian says she died because editorial wanted her gone.

I've been into Sonic since the old cartoons from Blockbuster when I was really young
I loved the old games and had to show my friends the Metal Sonic fight by playing to that level in one sitting because of no save states
I kinda sorta played the 3d Adventure games at friends' houses because my family was just poor enough to get me the genesis at the time
I never made an OC for Sonic. I don't know why, but it just never occurred to me, despite being on DeviantArt
I forgot about the series for years and learned to draw anime instead
Eventually, I came back, learned more about the new SoJ characters and started to like them
I found out that outside the lovable characters, most of the games suck and the fanbase hates them
I found out Sonic comics exist but they're all a bit too cringey for me now
I still hold fond memories of the old cast but they don't really fit next to the new characters so I don't mind them being vaulted
Now I just draw characters at random, imagining a better timeline where SonicTeam was competent and the games were good

>"Oh he's a free-spirit? So maybe he could be seen badly in the eyes of societ-"
Outside of people who abuse authority and are scared of Sonic inspiring people to follow their dreams and search for the truth on their own, Sonic doesn't really give people a reason to hate him. He just likes traveling the world, trying good food, and thrill-seeking, so it doesn't make sense for regular people to just hate him unless it's perhaps out of jealously and wishing they were wearing his shoes.

>"Okay, so if he's so cool and with the flow, maybe he could act a bit uncaring towards his friend-"
I can see how you could come to that conclusion, but even I don't like seeing other people angry, and I don't go out of my way to make others uncomfortable, and often try and joke around and make people happy just because I enjoy seeing people enjoy themselves. If someone likes seeing people have fun and enjoy themselves, why would they be cruel and uncaring? Sonic does whatever he wants after all, and wanting to see other people happy isn't unrealistic by far.

>"Okay, so if he's so kind, maybe he could like, have some insecurit-"
Something I love about this franchise is the idea of always moving forward, the idea that no matter what you're scared or worried about it's always better to keep moving forward than let your emotions or insecurities hold you back. Sonic represents what most people wish they could be but simply can't. Normal people hold themselves back because they're afraid of failing, but Sonic takes that leap. Normal people lose what they hold dear and they let grief consume them and refuse to move on, but Sonic never stops moving forward. Normal people let their emotions cloud their judgement and make them do things they'll inevitably regret, but Sonic is always coolheaded and in control.

Sonic isn't supposed to be this flawed and relatable protagonist, he's supposed to be this cool guy that anyone would just be friends with, and I like him because of that.

I think Sonic is purposefully left ambiguous to be left up to subjective interpretation as much as possible.
The way I see it, Sonic is a muse: a source of inspiration for creatives and the ambitious. The specifics of who he is are really up to the beholder.
While I believe there is a proper way for sonic to be represented (i.e he should be cool and a lover of adventure) his embodiment of the wind isn't really outright said, but maybe implied in some scenes of some games like Sonic 06. Whether that's an integral part of his being is really left to the individuals jurisdiction.
I think the most important thing about Sonic is that he's cool and action oriented. I really like his ambiguity and mystique. It's neat and adds to his appeal.

Nah bro, you cannot look at Black Knight and tell me it was in any way like OPM. The story is literally just following Sonic as he goes around telling random people "Ur wrong" while beating them up, while Caliburn learns the way of things and begins to suck Sonic's cock as well. Nothing about that Sonic fits the role well. We don't see the other characters reflect on what Sonic says and making their own decisions with his advice in mind. They all just start sucking his dick or he MAKES them suck his dick. And don't even get me started on how retarded the whole message of "What good is a world that lasts forever?" is.
Almost all the games you mentioned have a bit of what I just said as well. Greatly less than Black knight, but still a bit.

She had the dress in flashbacks.

But yes, it was damn fun to see the book bring in AoStH characters and treat them with such respect.

this is actually closer to how sonic is supposed to operate than a lot of newer stuff. sonic isn't a super hero and doesn't have "super powers" (Even "normal" blobians are strong) he
and the other characters are all like Pokemon.
If Amy got knocked through a building she would survive, just like Sonic would.

>You like him cause you self-insert as him
Personally I prefer a character that struggles, gets the shit kicked out of him, and keeps pressing on in spite of the odds simply because of how much he cares, like Mumen Rider and Silver. I still like Sonic and understand him despite that, even if he isn't my favorite. Also, are you really going to engage with Sparky but not me? You wound me Eggfag...

I think this is where you fucked up because I'm pretty sure Sonic isn't known for his "gentle" touch (hence why attempts at it are pretty clumsy). His friends are such because seeing him makes them want to be a part of his life (or are otherwise pulled into it), and he welcomes it just fine. He's simply led by curiosity or reaction and isn't bothered by the greater details

This is kinda lame then. I feel Sonic should kind of be like a superhero in abilities, just like the rest of the main cast, and this feels inconsistent with how Sonic was portrayed in the past of the comic, considering what he has done before.

This is fucking saber erasure! Also, thank you, I could not remember what animal Antoine was supposed to be. I guess partly because Coyotes tend to normally be depicted as kind of mangy and he's so well-kept.

No, that's our Antoine. The "Sonic" there is actually Scourge. Twan thinks that Sonic is pretending to be him to be nice, so he just bodied the real Scourge without realizing it.
>>
>>493314951
I'm on the fence about it myself. After a while it becomes clear literally every blobian who becomes a main character could survive a fight with Metal Sonic. I wouldn't be surprised if Civies like Dawn and Nite have some cartoon abilities too and by default all blobians can fight.
Even the movies just unilaterally treat all "Aliens" as powerful automatically.

Let me just make it clear that I would rather if Sonic wasn't an aspirational figure, and if instead, EVERYBODY was both flawed and aspirational in their own ways, for a more interesting and versatile cast that don't all just look up to one singular guy.
But if it has to be done, then yeah, the games you mentioned do it pretty well. SA1 is my favorite because you get taken away from Sonic completely and put into the different characters' mindframe, and they all reach their conclusions on their own. Sonic didn't say shit to Tails, he didn't tell him "You can do this lil' bro" or anything. He just told Tails to take Amy to Station Square and that's it. Tails is the one who reflects on how much he's changed since meeting Sonic and what he wants to be. The growth comes from him, Sonic is just the spark.
It's not like in Black Knight or Rush where he straight-up tells people what to do and beats them up until they do it.
>>493314650
Then you'd know how a character like that is infinitely more interesting than "Cool guy", right?
>>493314727
What can I say? I'm a bit of a manchild myself.
>>493314901
If he is uncaring, it's never called out or a problem, so what's the point? Why does it matters that he's an asshole if everyone still loves him for it? People think anything bad in real life is a flaw, when that's not what that works. It has to be bad in the context of the story.

Yes, which is why most of my brainstorming and ideas revolve around other characters instead. That being said I still really enjoy Sonic, and feel that he fits as the protagonist very well, and wouldn't dare change him.

Why? It's literally evidence agiainst your point. They confirmed that Sonic will go up against society if he thinks Society is in the wrong .

NTA, but it's poorly thought out in it's entirety even if the idea behind it works fine. The Helen episode where he runs from the presidents goons because he just wants to adventure instead is a better example.

I think the captain america trilogy of movies all did the "Main character sticks to his principles even if everyone from the law to his friends says he's wrong" thing better than Sonic because in Sonic everyone just comes around to agreeing that he was right the whole time and just didn't explain himself.

Bro, if Society is retarded and doesn't know how the moon works, then him going against it is just more dick-sucking for Gary Stunic.
This is a common tactic for Gary Stus. Everyone hates them but they're all wrong and he's right, and they all realize he was right at the end and get kind of embarrassed. It should be more nuanced than that.
