If you're aware of what Sonic Retro is, then what was confusing about the original statement? Retro had a classic-based project in development when Sonic 4 was announced which ended up getting dumped because of people losing interest. Obviously that anon wants Retro to put out another fangame.

Im going to see how many games I can beat in one day. SA1 and 2 are shorter so thats doable. Heroes with team sonic can also be done. Sonic 06 will take longer just out of boredom in lengthy loading screens. Unleashed is the one that would probably take the longest but then again probably not since I've speedran every last stage in the game and can get almost all medals easily. And Colors and Generations suck ass and can be beaten in like 3 hours or some shit, shovelware games.

Wish me luck /v/

27 yo, 9 years on 4chan. Stop making up everybody who disagree with you as some kind of boogeyman.

Classic sonic sucks because it's slow. If you go fast, you die. And the only way to go fast is to replay the game over and over.

I know you are probably really nostalgic for it since you were probably a genesis kid, but it really is not good. Even if they made a new Sonic exactly like the old one with just new levels, it would still fail. Because Sonic is not good.

Sega does what Nintendont. Failing at making good mascot characters.

Sonic whole gimmick is "he goes fast and he's rad". I played 1 and 2 in a row and I could not go fast. At all. You have spikes, enemies and a ton of stuff in your way, and if you run, you cannot react fast enough to evade it or jump over it.

But why does being unable to go fast automatically make it bad? you only think the game is about going fast because that's what the commercials told you.

>>340210327
>Classic sonic sucks because it's slow. If you go fast, you die. And the only way to go fast is to replay the game over and over

The only Classic Sonic game that fits your description is Sonic 1, and that's just because it is a slower-paced game in comparison to the others. If you have a hard time going fast on Sonic 2 and 3, then you literally need to git gud, because those games have room for running/rolling to spare.
>>
>>340210772
Sonic Unleashed, Rush, Rush Adventure, and Advance 2 are the fastest games in the series. I consider these to be the height of Sonic. If you haven't played any of these 4, give them a try. Unleashed and Advance 2 are pretty hard and masterpieces.
>>
>>340210919
Are you that much of a fanboy that you cant see flaws?

>>340210929
I could play a Mario level and see what is ahead and be able to react to it. You cant do that in Sonic because you cant see what is in front of you.

Why? Because the game is a mascot, it's not a game. They want to make sure that sonic look cool and hd.

Because it's the whole point of the game.

It's like playing Mario where you cant jump on platforms easily or have Zelda where exploring is hard.

The gimmick is speed, then give speed. But he does not. The whole level design of Sonic is obstruction. All the paths are blocked by spikes and spiked enemies.

I argued against your pathetic "flaws."
All you do in any of these threads is use the same old tired excuses as to why these games are bad, but the real reason you don't like them is because you were bullied by Sonic fans on the playground as a kid for liking Mario. It's no wonder why you keep sucking his dick. You just can't seem to understand that the war between Sonic and Mario is done, famarino. Go watch some more RedditLedditMemeia, fuckboy.

3 and Sonic and Knuckles have really long, dragging on levels with lots of stops. I think 2 is the fastest of the old games and if you didn't like it, theres no chance in hell youll like 3 and SK.

Do you have a 360? You can download the Sonic Unleashed demo there to get a taste of it. After a few replays you'll be able to boost through it at top speed and it feels very good as well as looking and sound incredible

All of them make exploring easy. Movement and liberty of movement was always a big part of Zelda.

Sonic camera is zoomed in. This mean that at full speed, you have no way to react in time. Mario on the other hand allow you to see and react to something at full speed.
>>
>>340211315
>It's like playing Mario where you cant jump on platforms easily

In Mario you jump from one platform and land on the other with your own input. The same goes for Sonic, it requires player input and understanding of the game's mechanics to keep the speed going.

Doesn't seem out of the ordinary to me, it's like if someone misses a jump on Mario and say "Mario is a game about jumping, but if you jump you die".

It's all yours my friend.
>>
>>340211716
I do have a 360, I'll check it out. Speed is not a problem, it's how the FOV and level design is made. For example, Super Meat Boy is much more unforgiving, but it's fair. Even in a first playthrough you can probably see what you have to do, and the rest is a matter of skill if you can pull it off.

Sonic 1 and 2 just seem like even if you have the best reflex in the world, if you go fast, you will get hit. Even more if you never played the game.
>>
>>340212537
If you get hit in a video game, ah well. That doesn't make it bad. Sonic isn't only about speed, it's about momentum and platforming as well.
>>
>>340212168
No. Because Sonic gimmick is going fast, but you cant.
Mario FOV allow you to see platforms ahead of you and react to them and anticipate. Same with Megaman. They show you.

Sonic does not show you. You need to know to jump BEFORE you actually see the spikes to evade them. That's a major game flaw.
>>
>>340212687
>you can't go fast
A lot of people can, but not you apparently.
Also, you can see the spikes and hazards in front of you. If you want to see them above or below you, you can look up or down.
>>
>>340212671
But the problem is that Momentum in Sonic is bad. The only level that actually feel good is 1-1 and even then you have a lot of "Ah damn, this hill stopped me" or "Why is there a spring in that wall"
It's like the guys who made the levels, made sure that you could not gain speed after Green Hill.
>>
>>340212537
There he goes, bringing up Super Meat Boy as an example like he's never done it before.

Sure I can. If I walk and stop and walk and stop. But that's not fun. Not in a Sonic game. This is not Mario where you should wait for platforms.

For all the flaws Lost World had, at least it had some fast dodging levels with the Donut planets. And that's what Sonic should have been. Dodging stuff, while going fast. Not trying to compete with Mario.

>>340212931
I do not frequent /vr/. Super Meat boy is superior to Sonic in everyway, and it's much harder and fair.
>>
>>340212916
Just jump above the spring in Act 3 that pushes you back, you have control over the character. If anything stops you, just keep going you baby.
I even gained speed in Marble Zone. If you honestly have that much trouble getting speed in Green Hill Zone, then you're trash.
>>
>>340212537
That is true, though i think its ultimately a limit on the hardware and TVs of back then. I think the 3D games are inherently better for this very reason. Youre not limited by camera FOV and can see everything upcoming. Starting with sonic unleashed in 2008, the games have integrated 2D into 3D levels. But it actually works here because the games are HD/wide screen and the camera is DYNAMIC and reveals what you need to see is coming up.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2d8-d7wWEk

In the demo should you choose to download it, youll see what I mean. But if you have 2 minutes, this video shows exactly what I mean. Switches seamlessly from 2D-3D and the camera is always pointing at relevant info and after a certain point you can go fast without stopping barely

Sonic's gimmick is speed, but that doesn't mean the game should spoon feed you with speed, Sonic Advance 2 does that and it's the one 2D Sonic game that fits the "hold right to win" meme people always bring up.

The first stage is usually easier to go fast because naturally the first stage is easy and the game gets gradually harder as it progresses. If you want to get the same speed you were going with on the first stage, you'll have to git gud, learn how to take advantage of the pinball physics and the rolling maneuver and that's it.

Granted, not all of the stages are flawlessly-designed, butmost of the time it's not hard to maintain the speed you build up once you get how the game works.
>>
>>340213295
It's not really the hardware, it was the "climate" of the time. People wanted a Mascot and sega was jealous of Mario, and so they did Sonic. And they wanted to prove they had better graphics and so they made the sprites big. Really big. This way it looks better, has more pixels, the terrain as more pixels and ect. The game is mostly bad due to the competition. If they wanted, they could have made Sonic look worst, and the overall levels and enemies look worse but gain in Gameplay, but they did not.

Sonic is pretty much the "30 FPS on consoles" of the 90's. Graphics over Gameplay.

That is true. Sonic started as a mascot rival rather than a natural idea. They could have made things smaller so the camera could fit more on the screen without slowing down but they didnt. I think sonic ironically and to the butthurt of many classic virgin losers, started being more video gamey with Sonic Adventure 1 and onwards. Both 2D and 3D Sonic games after 1999 just felt a lot more natural and like they were made just to be video games rather than rivalary mascot bullshit

I played video games for 25 years. I played slow, and fast stuff. I do not claim that I'm great or a pro, but if I cant even play a game for the first time without having unfair deaths due to me not seeing what was ahead of me, then it's a problem.

Same reason why I dislike Resident Evil 2. Camera placement in that game is horrible. I want to look at what is around me, not a close up of me in front of a door while there is a zombie in front of me that I cant see due to the camera.

You guys must have the reaction time of a fucking snail, because I literally never had this problem with that you're going too fast to see what's coming ahead with Sonic. Either because I was spin dashing and killing enemies that may pop up while I was running or that part of the game had me going at a reasonably decent pace that's not slow but not so fast that I can't react to shit.

The only exceptions I can think of are Marble Garden with that huge fucking spike ball coming out of nowhere and hitting you, and Metropolis Zone because the enemy placement there is fucking ass.
>>
>>340214291
As a Nintendo kid, I would say it's a solid series, but that Super Mario Bros 1 is really bad for today. 3 and World are the best, but even 2 is good enough.
But 1 is just bad. Gameplay wise, level design wise, even music wise.

Lost World could have been decent if it had proper level design. What were they thinking putting colored cylinders everywhere.

>>340211315
>Because it's the whole point of the game.

But you only think that because Sonic goes fast in the commercials and cartoons. Nothing about the game informs you to go as fast as possible at all times. Sonic's top speed isn't even as fast as a character like Bubsy

No. How the hell are you supposed to know shit like mushrooms give you more health?

The point of the game is jumping, but you jump too much and you accidentally end up in a pit and die. It's like they put all this shit in the way to stop you from jumping and feeling good even though that's the point of the game.

I've been playing games for over 25 years but have never had to deal with this. Super Meat Boy is a better game and even has the initials of Super Mario Bros, so there's pretty much no point in playing Mario.

I have not been dodging it. But your whole question is a "trap". Memorization and Repetition games, like what? Binding of Isaac, Enter the Gungeon, Necrodancer? No. Because they are fair and it's the gimmick. You die, and you try again. This is no Sonic.

Give me examples of games other than sonic like that and I'll give you my opinion. But in general, if a game is not fair, then yeah it's bullshit. I dont mind being better with repetition. I mind being awful because I have no repetition.

The gameplay in classic Sonic does not cause unfair deaths from lack of foresight, except maybe in a couple very specific cases throughout the games. If you're dying a lot, then it's because you're shit. It can be played just as well as any other platformer. In fact you get a lot more freedom because it's much more forgiving with its ring based damage system. And no there are not unfair hazard placements that force you to take damage.
Even then, you could argue that games like Mario require memory from trial and error because it's normal to die sometimes from things you couldn't anticipate or work around. Sonic is no different.
>>
>>340215049
>And everybody agree that Bubsy is awful. Because of the speed and bullshit enemy placement.
More so because the controls are absolutely horrible and the levels are jam packed with visible and invisible things that kill Bubsy instantly. Even falling from too high kills him.

In Sonic, you only have the potential to go fast.
You'd have to memorize where all the enemies and traps are to be able to move as fast as advertised, AKA, being autistic enough to memorize the whole game.
And since Sonic is well known for having a huge autist fanbase, it all comes together.

Smash is fighting. Fightning games are okay since all the information is there on the screen.

SMUPS in general are fair. You see them coming. You do not have sudden enemies rushing toward you with less than 200 ms time to react.

Guitar Hero has a pretty long time between the note and when you need to press it.

Dark Souls gimmick is "You will die" and even then it's fair. If you fuck up, it's your fault. Check chests and ect.

Battletoads is a bad game, let's not kid ourselves around that. It's bad. Awful game design. So yeah, it's worse than Sonic in the "Hey let's insta kill players for trying to have fun". It's like they thought the NES was an Arcade back then, and a ton of games suffered from it.

Battletoad Arcade with unlimited credits is actually kind of fun. Finished it the other day. The actual arcade version is bad. It's actually totally unfair.

So I was playing this game called Ninja Gaiden, it was advertised that I could slash demons as a ninja who wields a sword, so I popped the game in and started to slash them with my sword. But then the demons started to fight back or even block my attacks, I relentlessly pressed X and yet they always managed to hit me even though I was clearly trying to slash them with my sword.

Ninja Gaiden is a game about slashing demons, but I can't slash demons because they're always attacking me. What a load of bullshit, Team Ninja clearly deceived me, the game is nothing like it was advertised at all.
