Should’ve been the main character.

Hi Ken
>>
they should have given him an actual spinoff that wasn't ass at some point.
There's obvious potential there for a Knuckles game that's more of a beat em up hybrid, like a Treasure game or something. You can punch lots of guys and there's a combo counter.

I do enjoy the replay value of those first 4 games using the other characters.
Totally different games.

>sonic alone
90s edginess and high speed, pure high-speed running and jumping

>tails alone
More child-friendly cutesy playthough with flying and swimming mechanic, shame you could play him in s&k

>knuckles alone
More brawly action-oriented playthrough with more an explorative feel with the climbing and wall-bashing

A lost vikings style game with all 3 would have been such a good spinoff

They should have done this more instead of NO FRIENDS, SONIC ONLY, SOUTH/WESTSIDE ISLAND-INSPIRED DESTINATIONS ad naseum

>>12015285
that would never happen because he's black

Why is it always the redheads bros

I'm shocked the Sonic community hasn't tried to fix Knuckles Chaotix
>>
>>12015285
honestly could totally lead a few different spinoff concepts just in terms of basic design & concept
always struck me as probably the better option for free 3d platformers compared to sonic too? had a dream once that i was playing a 3d knux platformer on ds, still miffed it was never real
>>12015807
>wario world but knux
fuck it i'd be cool with this
it's weird when you think of it like that actually bc wario's headed up two seperate series by now but the similar ensemble approach that sega uses for the sonic cast extends purely to appearances in the main series
i wonder what knux's warioware equivalent would even be. probably a reggae-themed rhythm game or some shit

Because there’s nothing wrong with it… wtf are you trying to say?

He's my 2nd favourite sonic character, after this absolute chad

3rd place is probably the blue blur himself

>>12017452
They did give Knuckles a spinoff, it's just that it was Chaotix, which is a weirdo game no one asked for.
Yeah, the much more obvious concept would be to make a game about punching things, which there isn't really space for when playing Knuckles in a regular Sonic game, since they're so platforming and going fast orientated.

I'm trying to think what game exists that basically is a beat em up and a mascot platformer at the same time. I guess BattleToads. Mischief Makers? Incredible Hulk on SNES?

>>12016395
Literally Sonic Heroes and it sucked.

>>12016395
Literally Sonic Heroes and it rocks

I haven't heard about Ken Penders in over a year
What has he been up to anyway? Still drawing his horrifically ugly comics?

Knuckles was my gay awakening. I wish I was kidding.
>>
>>12018281
brother...
>>
>>12018116
to be fair i don't think chaotix was conceptually a bad idea, more that it suffered a little from bad timing or whatever, probably would have done well a couple of years earlier and really should have been marketed around multiplayer
>beat em up / mascot platformer
mischief makers would honestly be a cool approach... i suppose there's a few ways of approaching it though, the main issue is that sonic-style momentum doesn't lend particularly well to footsies

>>12015285
Literally no one liked this faggot back in the day

i like him in tails got trolled

Knuckles would beat your ass for saying some gay shit like that.

homosexuality is a psychological disorder
>>
He's not even the main character in his own TV show lmao
