5 Days to go until the new Sonic game is finally revealed
They sure did make us wait awhile for this one
FUCKING PLEASE
>>345315315
It won't be Adventure 3, but I hope we get another game with the Colors gameplay well polished
>>345315090
I can't wait to see your tantrum when there's nothing announces
I hope we get another trainwreck that destroys the franchise's reputation for good
Roadkill should be left alone.
Place your bets /v/

>had a working formula finally with Colors and Generation
>proceed to ignore all of that and reinvent the wheel for the millionth fucking time with Lost World and Sonic Boom
SEGA does not give a single shit to make consistently good Sonic games, they want Sonic to be an entertainment icon more than a good video game IP
I can guarantee you the current Sonic Team doesn't give a fuck either
>>345315315
you had your SA3
Just give me a fighting game and I'll fuck off.
>>345315507
>I hope we get another game with the Colors gameplay well polished
You mean bad 2D gameplay and literal hallway 3D running? We already got Lost Worlds!
>>345316158
If they didn't give a fuck they would've put the release day the year AFTER the 25th anniversary.
>>345316158
>reinvent the wheel for the millionth fucking time with Lost World
>last worlds is bad meme
>>345316393
The new game isn't coming out this year anon
>>345316326
and it reeked of Shadow the Hedgehog and bugs. I want a do over
>>345316393
Wouldn't, whoops.
>>345316434
I know, just messed up.
>>345316416
I'm not saying Lost World was awful, but SEGA constantly rebooting the series with new gameplay ideas, straying further and further from what people expect and want out of a Sonic game, is whats been the main fucking problem for years
>>345316416
Lost Worlds is terrible, it and Shadow the Hedgehog are the only Sonic games that bored me half way though it.
Given the quality of Sonic games in the past 2 decades that's saying a fucking lot.
>>345316326
>no Emblems
>no Chao Garden
>no upgrades
>no Knuckles treasure hunting
>>345316620
How was Lost World bad other than people sucking at the controls and blaming it on the game?
>>345315090
That's a cute Sonic render
The only way for Sonic to survive at this point is to either announce something really great, or show something that's 06 levels of terrible and stupid. I don't think the franchise can handle another middling pile of mediocrity.
>>345316620
>Lost Worlds is terrible
Well meme'd
>>345316719
The level design and reliece on gimmicks kill the game. And yes, the controls are terrible too.
>>345316719
Yeah, vertical scrolling levels with horrible 2D controls and even worse physics, plus a death pit going up with you, makes for a good game.
What are the chances of us getting a solely Classic-styled game? I thought it was a possibility with the merchandising push earlier this year, but sometimes it seems like a big pipe dream.
>>345317363
Hopefully low. Classic in Gens was mediocre, and I don't want to see that again unless it's with the Retro Engine.
>>345317363
If by "Classic Style" you mean more "dude GHZ lmao" then maybe.
Expecting Zelda level of hype and newness.
God its
>>345317679
Angel Island > Emerald Hill > Green Hill
Prove me wrong.
If no SA3 I'd actually enjoy a game IN the Sonic universe but you get to play as your OoC and interact with or assist Sonic chars in missions.
Like basically make OoT with the guardians being the core Sonic crew (Tails, Knuckles, etc) and give us stat customization (so purefags can have a solely glass cannon mach7 spindash character and hybridfags can have their jack of all trades character). Multiple endings, high replay value, the OC sonic community will literally cum money at Sega/Nintendo, etc
It really isn't that hard to make a good sonic game. Wtf is their problem.
>>345320384
SO you want Sonic Xenoverse? Eh, I'd get if but if it was set in Archie.
>>345320384
Saiyan self inserts I can understand and even enjoy. HEDGEHOG self inserts is entirely different. Get out of here with that shit.
Also, Generations 2 or bust
>>345316707
>liking Knuckles treasure hunting
>>345320918
Then I'm guessing rush adventure is adventure 3
>>345321156
No it's Sonic Advance 5
Bets on Rush and Rush Adventure HD?
>>345318468
You can't be proven wrong.
In terms of high speed levels:
Hydrocity>Chemical Plant>Star Light.
>>345322446
>Hydrocity
>high speed
How can that slow ass water level be high speed?
Will the arms be blue or white?
>>345322745
>Hydrocity
>slow
have you even played the game or do you just assume it's slow because there's water?
>>345320481
Basically, yeah. And agreed, but archieverse prob won't happen for decades due to too much industry butthurt infighting.
>>345320763
Instead of ruining sonic chars anymore, why not let the players create their own mess or success?
>>345322886
I remember it being slow as fuck in the first part. The second wasn't even that fast.
I love Sonic so much, that seeing the new big game is one of my highlights every year.
Not really when the game came out...but seeing music and graphics and concepts...
>>345323032
My favorite part is when it all comes tumbling down.
>>345315090
>he was waiting for more senic games
So you could masturbate, right? Why are furries allowed to breathe?
>>345323098
lol my nigguh
>>345323171
0/10
I've heard people say that Sonic Boom is worse than 06. How is that fucking possible? 06 is such a trainwreck on every conceivable level. Anyone have videos that explain this?
>>345323003
At the beginning of act 1, if you can to the top path right after the first water tunnel with the switch, it goes decently fast.
>>345323421
dogfucker/10
It's dead, jim. Stop humping the corpse.
>>345315090
Look at this, Classic Sonic design is perfect, why we have that Sonic Boom aberration?
>>345323434
06 has "memorable" parts and a good OST.
Boom has nothing memorable and a forgettable OST.
>>345315315
I would have zero hope for a good game if it is SA3.
>>345323434
06 is a terrible broken mess that could've been a great adventure title
Boom is a decent at best HD PS2 platformer with Sonic plastered on to it to sell, ignoring the things people want in a Sonic game.
>>345323721
>06 has "memorable" parts
I hate when idiots make this argument. There's nothing good about something being memorably shitty, you can't use that as a pro.
>>345323969
Say what you want but Shadow's character was GOAT in 06
>>345324206
>Shadow's character
What do you mean? His levels were some of the worst in that game.
>>345317619
>Classic in Gens was mediocre
it wasnt perfect, but horrible? get off it dude.
It was definitely leagues above Sonic 4. The physics at least pretended to work well, and it's presentation was pretty good.
Just as long as it tries to do something new and doesn't pander to these classicfags who don't know what they actually want.
>>345324639
It was also boring as fuck and I grew up with the Megadrive games.
All I want is for Sonic to not be the sole focus of the game like Adventure 1.
The games have gotten so stale since they forced the Sonic only meme.
there will be two games revealed, one is pretty cool and the other one is shit

Just to let you know, you are exactly what everyone hates
>I WANT MORE GAEMS ABOUT SANIC FRANDS

I'd rather have 3 or so decent gameplay styles than the Wisps again.
More than anything I want some sort of collection. Every game up to the PS3 era.

You people are the real cancer to this series and you know it.
>>345325950
I want to see a Sega Collection in general that's more than just Genesis games. They need to figure out how to include some Saturn or Dreamcast games in that shit.
>>345324302
I think he means Shadow's character and the writing in his story, I hear that aspect praised from time to time.
>>345324206
ALL HAIL SHADOW
>>345326112
Having a million gorillian fan characters everywhere is just as cancer.
Sonic handles better in a 2D space
Both iterations of classic sonic in that example were lackluster at best.
People who like the Adventure series have arguably garbage taste, because the series is mediocre overall at best.
Thanks for playing.
>>345315315
You already got that with Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog, just give up already.
>>345315315
nigga that's like calling pic related SMT4
>>345326264
So let me get this straight, the concept of going the "speed of sound" is demonstrated better in a slow ass 2D environment where you get caught on ledges and spikes, as opposed to a 3D environment where you are literally going the speed of sound.
>>345326264
>Implying every single game is jammed packed with characters in your face.
They always rotate them out and bring them back when needed your argument is shit, if you want classic Sonic then go play classic Sonic games.
Next you're going to complain that Mario isn't from brooklyn anymore because you're just that stuck in the past.
>>345316719
It was definitely better then Generations. People need to just git gud.
>>345326449

But SJ > SMT4, was meant to be SMT4 before Atlus changed their minds at the last second, and was unofficially called SMT4 by everyone after release.
>>345326580
>Going the speed of sound with loose, inaccurate controls because precision platforming at high speeds is extremely hard to do
>fun
Okay.
>>345326586
The more characters you add the more watered down the narrative is. Any good writer knows this. If we're looking at the Adventure games, there are already too many stories going on for any one to stand out and be good from a writing standpoint.
Keep trying. I can dish it out to adventurefags all day.
>>345326720
>EVERYBODIES FAVORITE SONIC GAME ARE ADVENTURE 1/2
That's just you, not "everybody".
>>345326708
>I want to press right to win so I can masturbate to cartoon rats with the other hand.
Any more non-arguments?
>Classicfags who haven't liked a Sonic game that came out after 1994 think their opinion matters for modern Sonic games.
>>345326720
Sorry kiddo, but not everyone fell for the "SA is good" meme.
>>345326890
> where you get caught on ledges and spikes
Defeated by your own dumb post, what an idiot.
>>345315315
Fuck no. Get out of here with that horse shit.
>>345326849
>>345327012
I was quoting and mocking the 3D fag. I don't even like SA
is this the part where we shitpost relentlessly
>>345327017
Not even the same anon but he was implying that you can at least see what is in front of you in 3D and accordingly react to it. Where in his post did he not say that there were no ledges or spikes in 3D? In fact, again, you're less likely to get stuck in those hazards in 3D.
You can fuck off now.
>>345327163
Yes.
Begin.
>>345326112
The thing is that they haven't given us classic sonic. They keep trying to give up classic sonic but keep fucking it up. There hasn't been a single good sonic game released since Sonic 3 save for maybe colors
>>345323969
Yeah, but Shadow kicking Silver though.
>>345323434
Giving Sonic and co some actual combat moves was neat. As was Knuckles getting RISING TAKUL
I hope they locked Iizuka in the broom closet so he can't hurt anyone or anything. The article where it says he was flying over to oversee the development of Sonic games has me worried.
>>345326112
>>WHO CARES THAT NEARLY EVERYBODIES FAVORITE SONIC GAME ARE ADVENTURE 1/2 IT'S CLEARLY SONIC'S FRIENDS WHO ARE THE PROBLEM.
Spotted the '90s born idiot.
Go back to your hugbox. Adventure games aged like crap and there's a reason the shooting and treasure hunting gimmicks were mercifully cut from those games going forward (on top of all the other garbage modes from SA1)
>>345315315
I just want a standalone digital only chao garden game
>>345327490

Seniority in Japan. You don't really get fired so much as given humiliating tasks until you resign.
I guess they shipped him to America again for this reason.
That and he may legitimately believe he's doing what's right and what the fans want. He's actually really accessible on Facebook and you often see him getting asked by Adventure 3 dumbasses for a dark and edgy return for the series.
Adventure fans are literally cancer to the franchise (though a dark-ish tone can work for the series--see Unleashed and even Shadow in 06.)
>>345327886
I'm pretty sure he's the only Sonic Team holdover left from the Genny days, so I guess to have some claim to legitimacy.
Apparently the most relevant thing he worked on in Sonic 3 as was the opening where Knuckles punches Sonic. But I like to imagine he contributed the Carnival Night Barrel too.
>>345328262
But that's a problem endemic to the series itself. Tails and Amy got some horrifically needed character development in SA1. Both strive to be a little stronger or more independent from Sonic.
In SA2, all of that was immediately thrown away, and Tails in particular didn't show an iota of being his own character without having to have Sonic stapled to his nuts until fucking Unleashed or even Colors.
Blame Sonic Adventure 2 and beyond for their own unraveling.
>>345328049
He the reason why Sonic is getting alot hate with all the ridiculous choices he makes for the games.
>>345328285
>Adventure fans are literally cancer to the franchise (though a dark-ish tone can work for the series--see Unleashed and even Shadow in 06.)
As long as they don't go full DAMN CHAOS EMERALD or space AIDS again I'm fine. I kind of miss Chip.
>>345328298
That was Yuji Naka actually.
Also Iizuka was a tester on Sonic 2, and then designer on Sonic 3 (Sonic 3 had two designer, senior and junior, Iizuka being junior).
To be honest, Sonic 3's level design was convoluted compared to the cleaner Sonic 1 and 2 levels.
Also didn't Hirokazu Yasuhara, work on Sonic 3D Blast and Sonic R?
>>345315090

Yet you shills defend this game as if it has more depth than that
>>345328539
Tails became pretty obsessive over Sonic opposite Eggman in Lost World.
Doesn't anyone wanna make bets on whether they will preserve the fish-eye POV in the next game?
>>345329643
Lost World's story made no sense, so it's easier to pretend there wasn't one at all.
Awful story.
>>345329021
>To be honest, Sonic 3's level design was convoluted compared to the cleaner Sonic 1 and 2 levels.
I remember in 2008, all the three new Sega games had new engines
Yakuza 3/Kenzan
Sonic Unleashed
Valkyria Chronicles
Seems that it is repeating itself
Yakuza 6
Valykria Azure Revolution
Sonic 2017

Half the stuff in Colors like the scoring system was ditched in Generations. Even the red ring display was messed up in Generations.

>SEGA: because we don't want to make money actually™
>>345334750
Same goes to Pokemon GO
>>345334750
It's not better anywhere else either, anon.
I think the only way Sonic can save himself at this point is just flat out fucking ignoring the bullshit "criticisms" he gets from the "fans" and going all fucking out and making a title like Heroes 2 or Adventure 3. Because it's pretty fucking obvious that when piece of shit FUCKING IDIOTS bash the actual good titles from 1998 to 2008 and eat up the bland, tasteless garbage from 2010 and onwards are morons who actively try to hinder the series fullest potential. You idiots can't deny this. That's exactly what you're doing.
>>345316819
>show something that's 06 levels of terrible and stupid
They already did that with Boom
>>345335462
Boom is objectively worse than '06, so I say it doesn't count.
Which one is better /v/? SA 1&2 OR DK64?
>>345315090
Post eggman
>>345336117
SA because you don't have to backtrack to collect bananas for all the kongs
>>345336117
Dk64 because it's actually fun despite the tedious collectables. Sonic Adventure played when you're a functioning adult sucks a fat dick. It's just a subpar game.
>>345336117
Sonic Adventure for this reason >>345336573
>>345336117
Can I choose neither?
>>345323434
They are just morons without any consideration for the whole picture. Boom is just shovelware, 06 is a legit trainwreck.
>>345316707
>liking Chao
>>345315090
My expectations are pretty load. I keep hearing hints that it'll be good from people I know who are "inside," but it's Sonic Team, so I'm naturally skeptical, especially after Episode 2, Lost World, and Runners.
My wet dream would be a game like pic related but... yeah. That's just whistling dixie.

>>345340420
I take it you haven't been keeping up with your Sonic comics.
>>345335105
Not mention super sonic being fucked up as well
>>345315315
Many people are saying no for this, but for me, I would love it.
Not because of the plot, as I never cared for them. It's because Adventure's physics are perfect for a 3D Sonic game. They have a perfect balance between platforming and speeding, two things that consolidated the Genesis' games, along the momentum-based trick, which was also present in Adventure. I liked Unleashed and Generations, but the boost formula just doesn't work for me, since it's only focused in speed.
This, and because Chao Garden. If they make Tails and Knuckles playable (no forced different playstyles that has nothing to do with Sonic genre, especially fishing and mech), and as usual, bring good level design that focuses in speed and platform, and great OST, I would buy it.
>>345341949
>Adventures physics were as good as they get
My nigga. Final Rush is my fave level because of how fast you can go because you're good at playing the level and not "press x to go fast".
Just make a chao garden game, thats it
>>345342996
I was more thinking in SA1, but yes, SA2 is great too, especially when they introduced the railing gimmick. Final Rush best stage, along Green Forest and Metal Harbor.

Knuckles hunts were perfectly fine in SA1. As long as they don't do that shit SA2 did where the detector only works in a specific order, I'd be okay with the gameplay style coming back.
My dicc is ready for a new Sonic game and possibly character to fap to on Deviantart.
>>345317363
They tried that with Sonic 4, nobody liked it.Except me. They're not amazing but for a "I got an afternoon to kill" kind of game they're pretty fun. I have literally no idea why people hate on them so much.
>>345346032
CUZ GEREEN EYEZZ SANAIC !!!21!
>>345346032
Not him, but I did like them too. Homing attack had not the need to be implemented in it, but besides that, I think they are good.
>>345346032
Mostly because the Sonic 4 name had a lot of weight packed in it for classic fans, but the game was clearly nowhere near the caliber of those games. On its own, it was a fine "New Sonic The Hedgehog"
Basically, imagine if SEGA released a game actually called Sonic Adventure 3, but while it looked like an adventure title, it had very different properties from those.
