>tfw the creation of the word 'edgy' meant the death for all characters that are cool, dark and gritty
Remember when we all actually liked "edgy" characters? Guess because it is ridicule-able because it has a term now, we don't anymore
>>342832694
I never liked edgy characters
>>342832694
Why do we get triggered by words anyway?
Today video games don't even have characters, it's all boring
We did when we were in elementary school and middle school. Then when we realised that they were stupid as we grew up, we stopped. We now ridicule them because we can laugh at our stupid youngerselves.
>>342832694
Nobody never liked Shadow
He was always embarassing
sonic in general is gay
>>342833252
I liked Shadow
>>342833420
Kill you're self
>>342832694
Shadow has always been gay because he's an emo faggot.
M.D Geist is not vidya, but it's edgy done right. There's no annoying 'muh maria'
or 'muh gotta be the ultimate life form'. Geist just kills because he loves it. There's no dishonesty or faux justification about it.
I was always a knuckles and tails fan more than sonic. So some black sonic coming in didn't bother me.
When I was a kid Knuckles was the edgy Sonic.

Shadow wasn't edgy in his debut game, he was just an arrogant prick.
>>342832694
I still liked Shadow, even after the edge shindig.
Black shirt
Black belt
Black boots
As a sign of baditude
Strong willed
Well skilled
Clear mind
Rooted in solitude
Good, perhaps this will dawn the era of villains who are eviland love being it
Shadow would have been a perfectly fine one off character. Reviving him was a mistake.
Is it wrong to actually like edge?
I fucking love reaper and i liked shadow in sa2, i think it's slightly endearing.
>>342832694
>Remember when we all actually liked "edgy" characters?
People still do. People just don't like it when they're poorly written. Shadow was always edgy but people liked him because his character arc came full circle before he got shoved into everything. They really should've kept him as a bonus character after that.
In DMC3, underneath the cheese, Dante himself's actually an edgelord (and so is Vergil), but people like the fact that he develops and starts to give a shit about humanity throughout the game.
>>342836784
Edge is funny. Reaper is a good example of self aware writing, he's meant to be humorous and it works well.
The probably with edge is when it becomes clear that the writer unironically thinks they're genuinely writing some hardcore badass shit.
>>342832694
Shadow didnt start out edgy in sa2 and heroes he was fine, until shadow the hedgehog and sonic 06. No one remembers >"I'm the coolest"
>>342836960

God I fucking hate summer. Fuck off to Reddit and stay there.

Same here. Knuckles rocked in that GBA fighting sonic game.
>>342833252
>>Nobody never liked Shadow
Enough people liked him to vote for him to get his own solo game, beating out Eggman.That's right, Shadow cost us an Eggman game. Thanks, Japan.
Here's something edgy.rip
>>342833252
He was great in SA2.
Can't say the same about any other gamethough he is the best part of Sonic 06.
>>342838124
Sonic Battle was my shit
>>342838496
Fuck yes I played the heck out of this.
In SA2 he felt like your typical villain with some backstory to give him reason for his action, but in later games they cranked up the edge and just makes him an asshole for the sake of being "cooll"
Nobody stopped liking edgy characters because of the word edgy. Everybody stopped liking edgy characters because they stopped being 14.
>>342838124
>>342833539
My echidnigs. I wish he wasn't shafted in the recent games.
>>342837617
>>342837962
Are lady bugs the only bugs that almost everyone likes?
I haven't met anyone who didn't like lady bugs or god forbid killed them.
>>342838812
>Shafted
>implying
I miss when he sounded chill as fuck and wasn't completely retarded.
>>342838923
I mean he doesn't get to be playable in main games anymore, and rarely even shows up as a cameo.
>>342837962
every since elementary school i always believed that ladybugs that werent the regular colors >>342837617 were poisonous, especially the black ones, true or no?
>>342838823
Ladybugs keep your gardens free of pests and are docile.
Asian beetles (the orange one you linked) are total assholes who stink up the place, eat your crops, bite you for no reason, and fly up your nose, at which point they fire off their stink shit.
>>342832694
This
This is one of the worst buzzwords to ever be made
>>342833252
Thats just you and your highschooler past
>>342839043
>only times he was playable
>SA1, SA2, and heroes
>those treasure hunting levels range from good to absolutely awful
>heroes is overall shit
I can see why man.
>>342832694
I don't think /v/ is entirely against edge. Bloodborne is one of the board's favorite games the past few years, and this is a game where every other item has BLOOD in its name. A game with a katana that you cut yourself with to increase its power.
>>342839114
No, they're not poisonous. Some people ARE allergic to the faggot beetles though.
Asian beetles are basically wasps to the ladybug's bumble bee.
Edgy means cutting edge, something experimental or avant garde. The creation of the word had nothing to do with what you are going on about. The way edgy is used here isn't an actual definition of edgy. It's a slang term used to mock teenage kids who think they are badass and hardcore. You are over-analyzing a meme OP.
>>342839238
You forgot Sonic & Knuckles, Sonic 3 & Knuckles, Knuckles in Sonic 2, and Sonic Advance 1-3. He didn't start existing with the 3D games.
>>342839273
There is "good" edge and "bad" edge.
Devil May Cry, Bloodborne, Darksiders, etc are good edge.
>>342839393
I know this i assumed we were talking about 3d since 2d is irrelevant.
>>342839524
>2d is irrelevant
Only because they don't make 2D games anymore, it was still a time when Knuckles was playable in the main series. But yeah, he's never really been in a good 3D game and that sucks.
>>342838823
Man I hated ladybugs growing up in a rural area, they would always hide in swarms in the light fixtures during winter so I'd have to vacuum them up en masse.

It's all so wrong.

I don't give a fuck, I still like these kinds of characters.

Nice try faggot.
>>342832694
"edgy" characters are fine it's just when it goes into Hatred tier writing that it becomes silly.
