Do people seriously think this is good? Why has it surged in price? It is one the most awkward clunky games I've ever played. I rented this janky autism back in 2005.
Go back to your Barbie games, bitch. You obviously can't handle dark, mature narratives for serious gamers.
Nostalgia blind tards exist in every generation. I exclusively play retro games, but most of them are new to me. Normalfags however don't actually care about quality or discovering something new, they just like whatever crap they "grew up with" a fucking stupid phrase they will say infinitely.
>>12549703It's an okay game as long as you play it in Japanese and aren't a thin-skinned ninny. Not great, but far from the abomination people exaggerate it as being.
>>12549703Furfags have some code where they have to pretend all of the post-Genesis Sonic games are good.
>>12549729t. disgusting black creature
People suddenly pretended that unleashed was good and that was a boring one note hack and slash on par with dmc2Sonic fags literally don't have taste, give it another year or two before lost world gets the glazing treatmentGrew up with heros and shadow, they are both trash games they I probably wouldn't have played it my parents didn't gift me them and instead had better games
>>12549703>SHADOW! THESE BLACK NIGGERS REALLY MEAN BUSINESS! THEY'RE GONNA DESTROY THE WHOLE CITY! CARE TO LEND A HAND, BRO!?This game is based. Why is Sonic's clone black? Did the Professor assume it'll make him run faster? Seems like a pretty sound theory
>>12549703If you didn't play this as a preteen blasting linkin park and sulking because no gf then this game wasn't made for you
>>12549905>create nigga the hedgehog>give him skates instead of shoes so fagnic can keep upNice guy gerald
>>12550062I got this for my 7th birthday and remember playing it while listening to Hit That by The Offspring
>>12549705>yo just want to let you know there's no report button, no mute button, no block button in real life. I want to see your glance as I smash your skull into the fucking concrete, and I strangle the life out of you, pushing my thumbs into their eye sockets until you cry blood lol. well, not before forcing you to watch their beloved ones die in front of you. >>12549729>not greatYou can say it's rhinoceros shitpile. Don't mince your words, come on man...
>>12549729I have the japanese version and I still think it's janky garbage>>12550062I had rented this and twisted metal black which was the superior edge kino
>>12549751Nah, only the 2D games were good. The only thing the 3D games were good for is giving us Rouge and Adventure Amy.> t. furry
>>12550486>t. furryStopped reading there
So when you want to buy it, thats okayBut when other people want to buy it, they have problems?
>>12549905Thanks for reminding me how terrible the PS2 version looks
>>12549729Everything about Shadow The Hedgehog is good except the gameplay, which doesn't change.
>>12549703Stop shilling your gay ass mods
>>12550808schizo
>>12549703Zoomers. They love Sonic. Sonic never stopped being popular. That's why they keep making garbage games. Now zoomers are teenagers and they wanna play the Shadow game. It's not hard to logic this out
>>12552949>Now zoomers are teenagersThere are literally 30 year old zoomers.
I don't. I like it even less than Sonic Heroes, since I feel like it didn't really address what that game fucked up, even though none of the same excuses apply to it.
>>12554165>born in 1999>grew up as a massive loser>hated 7th gen with a burning passion>no social media but telegram>not goyslopped or trendchaser>only a chicken chaserSup
>>12554173I don't know what telegram nor chicken chaser means. Also I have a gf your age. >t. '94
>>12554341>he doesn't know about the great tale of the chicken chaser and the acorns that never came to be
Nobody thinks this game is very good. The people that like it really enjoy the experience of being an edgy Shadow and going through his story. They look for the good parts in a game that has a lot of rough parts.Its a 20 year old game only nerds remember and all you do is let out all your negativity like a bowel movement hoping others will catch a whiff.
>>12554165>30 year old zoomersThose aren't zoomersZoomer starts in 99And yeah if you're in your 20s you are a teenager in my opinion
>>12549703It suffers the same issues as Heroes really (poor translation, rushed gameplay, shitty story progression), and because people are just as nostalgia-blind for Heroes, people will defend it. It's not as bad as say 06, which still astounds me why people defend that. I've played Heroes, 05 (Reloaded) and 06 (Legacy of Solaris) and even with the Legacy of Solaris mod, 06 was a genuinely miserable experience. I am more willing to replay 05: Reloaded or Heroes than ever touch 06 ever again. >>12549729This, but with the Reloaded mod. Then it's a genuinely decent experience.>>12554958>And yeah if you're in your 20s you are a teenager in my opinionThat literally runs contrary to the concept of being a teenager to begin with.
>>12555084>Ummm achshuallyThen replace teenager with kid. I thought that was obvious but I guess not when you're autistic
>>12555084Sonic Heroes is good. Shadow is bad. It's not hard. Sonic Heroes is not a great game but it's also not a bad one.Shadow is a bad game full stop
>>12549729>"Where is that FUCKING GODDAMN 4th Chaos Emerald!?"What kind of monkey would play this game in Japanese?
>>12555093The dude who's N5 and is using it to practice his japanese kekThere are so many people like this here now
>>12555090Teenager is more of a mouthful to say than "kid" or "kiddo", you'd have to be really autistic to be insistent on teenager when "kid" is more of a common term anyways.>>12555092>Sonic Heroes is good.Fuck no, it's a rushed mess. It has good moments, but it is at best decent and at worst mediocre, it is in the same category as Shadow. The Adventure games are good, great even. But Heroes and Shadow remain "decent" or "serviceable". It's quite telling because they use the same development structure that ended up being the death spiral that eventually killed the franchise. It just kept getting worse and worse until 06 happened. And Sonic Team is still using the same damn formula of how they develop games despite it being clearly detrimental, and they probably will never change anytime soon. >>12555093The JP script for 05 is genuinely better than the localized writing for the story. Shadow is less of an edgelord and the story is far less mean-spirited than the original in JP. Heroes is also much better in JP too. Pretty much every game post-Adventure barring 06 has it's story radically improved in the Japanese script compared to localization.
>>12555119>you'd have to be autistic to say teenager instead of kid>goes on to rant about how Sonic Heroes is bad >and knows the script of Sonic games in japaneseCmon son. Just admit you're an autist
Sonic Adventure 1 and 2 are ass. They have aged like milk. They're filled with unfun shit like treasure hunting or shooting segmentsSonic Heroes is not bad. It's flawed but fineShadow is garbage. It's a game you have to do stupid missions just to see the whole game because if you just play it from start to finish once you only see like 4 levels and none of it makes sense. Shadow has a visual novel structure which would be awesome if we were talking about an RPG or a visual novel... but it's a fucking Sonic game. Not to mention it's a terrible Sonic game since you're shooting enemies like a Ratchet and Clank game except bad
>>12555125>you'd have to be autistic to say teenager instead of kidNo one older than me has ever referred to a 20 year old as a teenager. Youngster or kids? Sure. But teenagers? What universe do you live in?>goes on to rant about how Sonic Heroes is bad Never said it was bad, I said it was decent at best and mediocre at worst. Don't hyperbolize my argument. >and knows the script of Sonic games in japaneseIs installing a retranslation script mod that much of a fucking unusual act of technical wizardry that it's considered autistic? Seriously?>Cmon son. Just admit you're an autistGiven my family history, I am more inclined to have OCD. I'll admit to that much. But that's not exactly the same, now is it?
>>12555140The missions wouldn't be so bad if they weren't "kill every single one of a faction's soldiers in the level". Maybe if they just did branching paths, it would be a lot better
>>12555145>I'm not an autist>I know the script of several Sonic games in japaneseIt's impossible to back out of this. You're in a hole too deep
>>12555168>It's impossible to back out of this. It is possible when you are quite literally saying something I've never said just because you're assmad at me saying Heroes is "decent" and take that as me arguing the game is bad for some reason. I quite literally have never said I've memorized the Japanese scripts of the Sonic games. Where the fuck did I say that? I said that the Japanese script is better than the English script and all it takes is a simple side-by-side comparison.How autistic do you have to be to misinterpret something like that? I just feel you're projecting here.
>>12555168>>12555197Hell not even that. I use the Windii retranslation scripts. Are you telling me you're not familiar with these at all? Are retranslation scripts seriously this foreign of a concept to you.
>>12555197>on the defenseLook, there's nothing wrong with being autistic.But also for the record, the games are shit no matter what the cutscene tons is like. Only an autist would argue otherwise
>>12555217>Look, there's nothing wrong with being autistic.Of course not, but I am baffled that basic level modding is apparently considered autistic. I suppose for a generation of people who don't know what a C: drive is, perhaps all forms of basic computer knowledge is indeed a higher form of autism in this current age.How peculiar. But I suppose I must go with the times and accept how things are now. >But also for the record, the games are shit no matter what the cutscene tons is like. Only an autist would argue otherwiseAgain anon, I am perplexed. You are imagining shit I literally never tried to argue. Go back and reread what I wrote. You are quite literally creating imaginary arguments I never made. Did the rule changes of /vr/ seriously turn this board into a board of schizophrenic imbeciles?
>>12555227Bro you know the japanese scripts of Sonic games. There's no getting out of autismo label
>>12555241...and this is relevant how?
Look, it doesn't matter if darkman the spikyback, the game, is bad or not, the concept is fucking stupid. Unfortunately not funny stupid, just unbearably. dumbly. stupid.I'm all in for a janky bad game or poorly executed mess, but this game is not even trying anything.Much like an edgelord; it's lazy and self-indulgent.
>>12555145Can you drop a link for the Heroes mod? It got deleted and i cant find it anywhere.
>>12555270That's a good argument. I mean Iizuka dreamt up the game from a fever dream induced by the shit development of Heroes hospitalizing him as well as playing Jak 2 at the same time. It's no wonder the game is the way it is to begin with.I still think as far as execution goes, it is not as bad as 06, but it's still pretty fucking silly regardless, hell 06 is arguably less conceptually silly, but the execution is arguably worse for 06. It's odd to say the least.My only argument is that I think Heroes and Shadow are in the same tier in terms of jankiness and being rushed messes from both gameplay and localization, though I will concede that Heroes has both better vision and better direction, absolutely. I just don't think it's any worse than 06. Not by a long shot. >>12555274Unfortunately I wish I knew, I am just as caught off-guard by the disappearance of the mod since I didn't know it got deleted until now. I regrettably also lost most of my Reloaded-II mod files from a hard drive failure a year ago, to make matters worse I only had the PC version of the mod, so if you needed the GC retranslation mod, I wouldn't have that one either way.I got no idea why the mod was nuked. It's very odd. I did find these two, but I don't know how legit they are, but they are worth trying out either way.https://archive.org/details/HeroesRetranslatedhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1Rrg9XAHgyIkgk_87Iv13IBM9hQz-4wEk/view
