This is now a plap thread.
IDW is trash
>>562370130Slow as fuck. How is this Sonic?
From the previous thread.Would Shadow torture someone to get what he wants? I need Shadowfags to answer me this.
When life gives you lemons, piss out battery acid
>>562370253It isn't Sonic. That's why Yuji Naka reportedly gave it a thumbs down and it was shelved immediately.
Tails!
>>562370048I mean there're people who think that Sonic X-Treme was going to be good.
>>562370415Post coital cigarette with Amy!
Why does the west claim to love Sonic when it seems to despise every foundation of the franchise?
>be flop era sonic character>come from a cheap 2 dimensional and barely innovative game with shitty controls and constant gimmicks mid levels>have like 1-2 defining character traits>fans have to constantly appeal to shitty comics written by western writers to try and save any redeemable traits or decent writing>actual powers and strength barely get used in any meaningful way beyond his first game>Sega insists on shoving his ass everywhere they can with no reason to do so whatsoever>be Silver>pic related but this is about Silver too
I HATE SONIC
Why do people ignore the east when it has been changing Sonic since his jump to 3D?
If Sonic were run by the west, it would be even more pozzed and alphabet than it is right now. It would look like IDW on extra HRT
I really hope IDW just becomes a "Yeah THAT happened" in the future.

>>562370161Rare Antoine Thread
Post Sonic characters smoking.
>>562370539Because they have fooled themselves into thinking that their fake Sonic (ultraliberal superhero who fights muh soggy knees, the -ists, and the -phobes) is the real Sonic
What is your favorite Sonic level?
>>562370830Fiona would be fat if she wasn't literally homeless and barely able to get a meal on her own.
>>562370879He's so handsome.
>>562370539Because the kids love Sonic because they find Sonic cool because it looks cool and that's all there's to it, and this isn't a criticism.
>>562371008rape island zone
For years, this place has vocally despised people who care about the "soul" of Sonic. They pushed for American control, and they got it. Now they're unhappy with it. Sad stuff. If only someone had warned them this would happen years ago.
rate Sonic
>>562371223Because they realize it became soulless. And that's no good.
>>562371234-2 originality, -2 polish, 0 audience breadth
>>562371051Just let her crash at your place bro.
Tried my best to describe her to Grok.Good night.
>>562371223People asked expecting Archie Sonic, but instead got Tumblr fanfic Sonic.
>>562371234Currently? Autistslop baitslop. People complained too much about the lack of continuity in Sonic games and ever since Frontiers SoA seems to be pushing the line in including 26 fucking meaningless references to past games in dialogue (and the comics obv we know this is Ian's doing) in a very shameless and out of touch "hey remember when THAT happened" way. I dont think anyone except turbo autists really minded the lack of a strong continuity between the games as long as some elements remained consistent
>>562371523Needs less shorts/pants.

For me it's Relic the Pika.

>>562370594And even then Chadvok is still miles better than Shitdow.
>>562370594He has powers? I thought he was a Bowser knockoff
Oh my God. Sonic is fucking dead!
>>562372684for a moment I thought he was flipping me off.
Douge
>>562372674All of his powers outside tampering with mechs is straight up ripped off from bowser. From breathing fire to increasing his size.

>>562372505I bought the Tomb raider reboot trilogy on sale and Nu-Lara is basically her lol.
>>562373532ocshit is off-topic.
>>562373558I spoilered it just for you and you still seethed.
I've been trying to properly articulate what exactly Sonic's characterization stand out, what the memorable stories like Black Knight do that bad ones like Forces do not, and what exactly people tend to miss about him in regards to narrative. After going through the Blade of Courage manga again, I think it helped me learn that the point of Canon!Sonic (when written competently) is to be a "supporting protagonist".What I mean is: he enters settings/other characters' stories and is a shaker-upper, but the just-as-big thrust of it is bouncing off the people caught up in his slipstream (watch him bring a not-Venice duchess or ordinary child along on a whirlwind trip on a whim, drop him in medieval times to see him clash with high concepts like chivalry, etc). He's undeniably "the lead", but a big part is how others interact with this irregular, irrepressible guy who views life with a surprisingly simple lens despite all his energy ("just some guy who loves adventure").Rivals question if he's all that or have their own reasons to be just as unyielding. Allies try to wrap their heads around him during those periods when he's stopped, only to push themselves to keep up as he blasts away. Incidental characters are baffled, almost uncertain what came by. Villains try to present an impossible obstacle to curtail or contain him, only to find their perfect plans foiled by the unexpected: that he's more than they assessed, or had friends they didn't give consideration. Et cetera.Think of it as being the "star of the show" in similar vein as Scooby-Doo: while there's technically more to say about the cast around him, it's HIS endearing core set of traits that Sonic "Sonic" which anchor the episodic nature of the series.
>>562373651Why so mad? Ocshit has nothing to do with Sonic.
>>562371630And they were told repeatedly it is dead and gone. We didn't mean that metaphorically.
Sonic uses chat gpt
>>562373698>Think of it as being the "star of the show" in similar vein as Scooby-Doo: while there's technically more to say about the cast around him, it's HIS endearing core set of traits that Sonic "Sonic" which anchor the episodic nature of the series.Now you make me wonder what the Sonic equivalent of the Velma show (Scooby-Doo without Scooby) would be like.
>>562373374extra lovely!extra sweet!
>>562374095Her name is Nicole.
Saw the Mario movie. The hate for it is retarded. Nerds need to quit thinking their opinions aren't weird as fuck and they themselves aren't as weird as fuck. Learn to have fun instead of treating everything like school.
>>562374137Technically that'd be Paramount's Knuckles spinoff.
>>562373949
>>562374232Not gay enough.
>>562373558Well man, do you have anything better?
>>562374137you needn't look very far
>>562373698I might keep this analysis is mind if I ever write a Sonic fanfic. I always have this vague itch, but I always become self-conscious about mischaracterizing people.
>>562374283Lets be civil
>>562373246>>562372674When I mentioned his powers I only remembered the tech tempering shit holy fuck this is actually hilarious
>>562374583>>562373246okay but like whyyy does Zavok have "mech tampering" powers? He's like an imp demon guy
Knuckles attracted a nazi, a schizophrenic hippie, a girl with a phd, another nazi, his rival's sister, a thousand year old god deity, a glowie...
>>562374583He can also fly for some fkn reason17:47 timehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfAqnfgr6n0
Princess peach, I fuckingly found you *moans*
>>562374753Literally just to justify an Eggman team-up while still letting them use Badnik enemies. If I recall, Lost World was originally intended to be a Classic game.
>>562374817WHAO this guy is badass...
>>562372505>>562373538>>562374283>>562374581I tried
>>562374753as far as i care the zeti should just have magic demon bullshit powers that only does exactly what plot needs them to do, making technomancy their main gimmick is a total misstep, like it's only useful for stealing Eggman's Badniks we know it wouldn't work on Omega, Metal Sonic or any other named robot character
>>562374817It's trying so hard to be New Super Mario Bros.
>>562375430I'd hit it desu.
>>562375430Definition of slop>>562375537Zavok casually controlled Metal Sonic in IDW
>>562375537Such an odd thematic mismatch.
>>562374753>>562375537they were trying to do something with oni using lightning and stuff, but it doesn't translate because no one would fucking know that's what they're even supposed to be
>>562375713This concept would've been way fucking cooler if they went all in with the Oni theme. What the fuck. Are they stupid?
>>562375640In lost world It didn't even on work on orbot and cubot
>>562375823>is sonic team stupid?Yes. If they wanted something cool they would have done it. So now they're stuck with magic Barney the Dinosaurs that have one gimmick
Have a lovely night
>>562375902As far as i know they were never targeted, and ircc Zeti were about to control them in IDW but they convinced them not to
>>562376148Thank you, I hope the same for you.
>>562375713the Lost world badniks don't even run on electricity, they run on fluffy animal critters
>>562375823In my fanfic, Zeti were one of the great civilizations that fell to the wind god's wrath after going too far with their conquest. What's left are so traumatized by it that they instinctually fear Sonic.
The only good Sonic game was Sonic at the summer olympics and that was only good because Mario was in it.
>>562376169They were standing right there when the deadly six took over Eggman's mechs
Pipebomb in the mailbox.
>>562374249More like Scenic Feces.
>>562376359I fux wit it honestly. I feel like the ancient world in the Sonic verse is ripe for exploring. We have two seperate characters who are designated treasure hunters and several allusions to ancient races that disappeared.I've a similar headcanon regarding the Phantom Ruby being linked to Infinite and ancient "Egypt" similar to Knuckles being linked to the Chaos Emeralds and the Exhidna Tribes.
Amy has a sister from SPACE
Bro, Sonic, you are a dumbass
>>562376359I see where you're going, but it doesn't really fit the demon power rangers aesthetic
>>562375823sounds too japanese in an era where sega of america was overtly xenophobic
>>562376879>sega of america was overtly xenophobicYeah, they were. And still are. The people making the shit now hate anime and would rather make gay Avatar like every fucking hack for the past 15 years.
>>562374249https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWmVcgI2tyEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xgaLKzUv7Q
>>562376641Does said sister take a lot of space?
>>562376148Cute fluffy girl
>>562376641Cosmo?
Remember anons. Masturbation addiction is no joke. Even Shadow succumbed to it's power. Ask for help when you think you need it.
>>562370685Sex the child
>>562373246Is there a Dry Zavok?
Jesus, Sonic has just so many emotes...
Sex with mobian posters. I know you are real!
Why are nerds so hateful?
>>562377506
>>562377874Why are normies so stupid?
>>562378000Overthinking's a bad thing, anon. It's why you never meaningfully succeed.
What does /sthg/ think of Outcome Memories?
>>562378000>normiesFound the normalfag.
>>562378793Potential game.At least the animations are cute and creative.
>Chaos Angel>Cosmic Angel>Gigantic AngelWhy did Dimps do that? Angels aren't a place. Why did they think an angel was a place.
>>562378953Retard.
What the fuck was the deal with Sonic X-treme's development? It reads like they were making three games at once.
>>562378835If I'm a normalfag then where the fuck is my gf?
>>562379064>It reads like they were making three games at once.Yes and no. Their pitches kept on getting rejected and it got to the point that two devs were working on their own versions hoping top brass would say yes to one of them. They rejected both.
>>562378793I've heard more about it in pasing from my nephews and other kids in the wild, but almost nothing about Rumble and that's hilarious
>>562379274Kids think the bright colorful quirk chungus shit is gay and want something with edge to it. It's why FNAF and Poppy's Playtime were hits.
The Zeti are lame because Lost World is lame. A game targeted at Mariofags was not going to have enemies that looked and behaved like something from the 2000s era of Sonic. They were bootleg Koopalings for a Sonic game that wanted to be as Nintendo as possible, which is why the badniks returned and also looked like toys
>>562379408Why is Classic so kiddy now? It feels like Nick Jr's Sonic. None of the vibes from the old days.
>>562379263A lot of normalfags are sexless these days, get on with the times gramps.
My wife is cool.
>>562379505Why is Sonic in general so kiddy now? Kids don't like kiddy shit. It's why GTA and CoD were hits with them. Kiddy shit only works for kindergartners and autists.
>>562379265Based
>>562379587>Kiddy shit only works for kindergartners and autists.And women.
>>562379505three reasons:>old "fans" still believe in that sonic was never edgy or serious so corporate listens to them>corporate needs classic sonic to be as sterile as possible for merchandise>the people at sonic team don't remember how classic sonic used to be so they just do what they're told by corporate and fans
>>562379817DOX RAPE AND KILL
>>562379408it would take zero effort to make the deadly six into 2000s era Sonic baddies, they're magical demon things it's a wonder they didn't come with edgy form change mode right out of the box
>>562379274It's a Roblox game. i got to know about outcome memories from a niece who is like 12. She saw me playing Sonic and came to look into it and said, "the outcome memories character."I myself never played it, just saw some videos, but I liked the design and animations.
>>562379951Dance tato danceDance tato danceDance dance dance dancedance tato dance tato dancee dance dance
>>562379587People made fun of edgy dark age shit for chasing trends like that and still do. That garbage was killing the franchise and forever ruined it's reputation.
Take 'tato, put him in a box, send him to a human woman.
Even in an edgy game they still made tails look like a faggot that's tragic
Edgeniggers should off themselves as they can't into any story that if not filled with aura farming.
>>562374814Knuckles isn't attracted to rouge, nor is rouge attracted to him. That is from x
>>562380523We just established kids know more about Outcome Memories than Rumble. Kids like dark shit. They don't like that bright kiddy shit.https://youtu.be/8ZA1eKE8Pl8?si=JHmbjD_TKkZoPMPI
>>562370280Depends on what *it* was, but yes.
*headpats your OC*
>>562380868Edge and aurafarming sells, sperg. Simple as. Don't like it? Too bad.
>>562370761
>>562380956Kids also don't have money to spend. Adults who like kiddy shit (me) do, so your little shitstain niece can eat my ass
>>562380706Well yeah Sonic is the cool one, being unironically cute is Tails's job
>>562381106>Kids also don't have money to spend.That's what their parents are for.>Adults who like kiddy shit (me)Ew, you're weird.
>>562381106>t. Pedo
>>562381110Tails job is to piss himself and be a damsel in distress so sonic can save him
>>562381056It's garbage and would end up like that turd of homotel.
>>562381268Im just very in touch with my sexy inner child
>>562380956The animations of this game are really good, a shame it's roblox (canceled) shit. And non ironically, it's something I would love if I were 12 years old.
Which was the "first" Classic Sonic? Nicky or Stc Sonic?
It's ogre.All the others are just exe shit that I won't touch. I hope someone enjoyed those.
>>562382032Nicky obviously you stupid monkey
>>562380868You can appease any darkagevirgin with mindless key jingling, edge slop and drama masked over shit writing as depth and maturity.
>NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER WAHOO NIGGER
>>562382032>>562382145Issue 8 of Fleetway dropped in September of 1993, Nicky first appeared in the first Chapter of his manga on April of 1992, Nicky is older by a year, although original Kintobor backstory from Bible came out in 1991, making this classoc sonic older
what if we took sonic... and made him evil or flawed?
What do we do now?
>>562382769That'd be Fleetwaynik.

>>562383406Why so negative?
>still no human woman
>>562383538If I feed 'a fully immersive experience that evolves throughout the performance' into the bullshit translator, I get 'a few AI-generated videos displayed between whatever Johnny G and the guest band members can legally perform from the actual band's material'.(because they're treading carefully on it being a 'passion project' 'for the fans' that's most definitely not 'affiliated with or endorsed by SEGA')
>>562378793Ask me how I know you're underaged
>>562381110>Sonic in a jacket & glasses>Tails in a sweaterScourge and Miles?
>>562382769Sonic is flawed, he's impatient.
And with this is 6 days of nofap.Post porn to test my will.
is your oc hero or dark?

>>562384772Sonic...
>>562382032>>562382456Nicky isn't Sonic
>>562384623
>>562384521Point to any main game before 2009 where Sonic's "impatience" leads to a negative consequence
>trusting sega
>>562384995i'm outta here! <GAME OVER>
>>562384873He is so cute
>>562384656hero predominantly, darker OCs are swirling around in my head but I haven't worked out how they relate yet
Sonic the Hedgehog (1991) to Shadow the Hedgehog (2005) - 14 yearsShadow the Hedgehog (2005) to present (2026) - 21 yearsWild to think there's still a few of these sat on a shelf in a warehouse, somewhere in HK.
>>562382769>Dark AgeDidn't the Dark Age start the trend of taking away Sonic's flaws and making him good at and right about everything?
>>562385574What flaws did he have before that?
>>562384975it did nothing because that pedoshit has nothing to show
According to Archie, Sally's a squirrel.
>>562384995Why?Sonic's impatience not getting the better of him doesn't make his impatience not a flaw.Ah whatever, if Sonic didn't speed onto Angel Island at mach fuck, he wouldn't have been clotheslined by Knuckles and gotten all the emeralds stolen.Also >>562385137, it's one thing for Sonic to get annoyed at the player when he's trying to stop Eggman and they're not helping him, but giving up on the whole adventure because someone took time to smell the roses, in a game that revolves around travelling through time to undo bad futures, is just immature.
