I can forgive every single OOC moment in Archie because it's a Satam spinoff comic. Complaining about that is like complaining about how the Sonic X comic has 2-Worlds and Chris Thorndyke. That's all part of the package. IDW has no excuse, it's supposed to be the games but can't seem to get around that. Why did the restoration come back after being blown up the issue immediately before? Do they seriously think we want the Restoration everywhere?

They're both really simple but good designs which let them be surprisingly adaptable for different art styles while also being two species that are rarely used.

What about this concept is so difficult for IDW to just... do? It's in the same canon in the games. Everyone says Archie has better stories. I don't want to argue about OOC this OOC that but it's not even hard to write cool action adventures with the game characters. Why can't IDW just be like SA2? Is it really hard for it to just be cool adventures like SA2? I'm not asking for the ultimate writing. I don't care if it's perfect with the japanese vision I Just want to open a Sonic comic and see cool adventures. instead i'm watching Belle and Sage talk about their fucking feelings.

>>
>>571589158
IIRC people complained about Archie back then more so because Archiefags pushed the belief that Archienic was the most mature and best version of Sonic. IDW is worse because in tandem with the canon bullshit, we’ve got Archie layovers forcing in whatever they can from Archie in the first place because they can’t move on. In conclusion, he comics are garbage.

Sonic Adventure 2?

It's all pure artistic skill.

Most of the models are very basic (by today's standards), and are only covered with a simple "photo texture".
Some were given a basic Bump map + specular map to give more glossy, metallic vibe, but nothing fancier than that. Water has some simple Planar reflections and refraction, that was old news at the time as well.

All that's then coated in mostly pre-baked lighting, with some dynamic light sources. Smaller, self-contained "rooms" obviously help keep the things within the console's RAM budget.

Because strong hardware limitations breed invention and polish.

It's probably my favorite game in the series to this day. And I say that having just finished a 180 emblem run a couple of months ago, so I'm not saying that with nostalgia goggles on. I still think it holds up, despite some flaws and dated ideas/mechanics.

I know he likes that character, but didn't he have a more discreet doll? That one is weirdly erotic, I certain people were looking at him no differently than those people who walk with an erotic dakimakura or adult toys around. It'll only contribute to the bad reputation foreigners have.

Never read the comic. But I'm just pointing out that it's weird in Japan to walk with a doll like that at common events. People would call you kimoota (digusting weeb), and then other foreigners would get the same treatment because people would expect the same thing.
