>>34876 All Acorns are nuts.

So fucking sick of the Sonurge spam in half /sthg/.

>>34877 That's true. Acorns are a type of nuts. they are also the royal emblem and the national food.

>>34878 Sonurge is such a wifebeater ship so im not surprised so many sthg anons like it

>>34869 All I could think off for this to happen is if the writers got tired of writing stuff for the two and decided to merge them to make this simple. Best part is they still keep Mimic and that overarching saga going.

stinky skunk

>>34882 To me it just reads one vocal sperg (the one who reposts the same art over and over) who wants a tsun dynamic, and then a small number understand it's a rape ship.

>>34794 Well... Nothing is stopping people from drawing whatever outfits the AI is sticking her in. Think of them as starting points.

>>34887 You'd be surprised at how many wouldn't do that I think.

Foxcels storming the castle, fucking Acorn*ids, impregnating them into extinction. Making beautiful fluffy bastards.

>>34891 Honestly, the mental gymnastics most anti-ai artists go through to reject AI in all its forms stopped surprising me a while ago. It could come out that image generators somehow managed to cure all forms of cancer and generate something so beautiful it ended all wars and brought about world peace and they'd still find a reason to hate it.

>>34893 It's not an anti-AI exclusive sentiment and there can be more to it than just "ew, AI".

Anyways, Amy mascot is cute and I love her.

>>34895 do you think she still want to kidnap sonic?

>>34896 Nah. These days, I think she would ask before kidnapping. Sonic seems more open to stuff when he isn't forced to it.

>>34897 >ask before kidnapping It's like raping the willing. it wouldn't be rape

>>34868 Oh, good, maybe we'll finally get some news

>>34870 kek. OP's only chance would've been to play it off as a goof, but yeah, kiss buh-bye to the deposit.

>>34908 Good for anon, he falls upon a pillow nearby, but sadly he's deaf forever.

>>34884 Killing Whisper is a bad move. Tangle betraying Whisper and revealing herself as Mimic's love interest would be a better way to keep the Mimic saga going.

>>34905 ugliest sonic title and it's not even close desu

>>34913 The original Adventure logo looks great on the other hand. Well maybe not the dirt texture, but the the inside part is awesome

>>34912 Nta but I agree. I think it's wonderful we have this technology to begin with, and it's very cool to see what people have done with it. On the other hand, you have people using it for unethical reasons, such as making AI generated revenge porn or using AI to make it sound like someone has said something potentially slanderous. Not that this sort of thing wouldn't exist without AI, but it does make it far more accessible and easier.

>>34895 Mascot Sonic should fuck Mascot Amy infront of Mascot Shadow.

Does canon matter?

>>34917 Only Eclipse Canon.

>>34917 To be honest, no Also that new timeline has some mistakes because it's just Toyoda's headcanon and all other writers will ignore it and make mistakes of their own >>34918 So cool!

>>34917 Not when they keep retconning shit, at this point the games canon is being pulled out of a hat, won't be surprised if they rewrite the timeline again in 5 years.

>>34921 I won't be surprised if they rewrite it tomorrow

New sega shop in China. Sonic and Shadow are the main display

>>34920 >Toyoda's headcanon Not exactly. The translation doesn't say timeline but "important episodes" i.e. its just the stuff Sonic Team considers important. In reality, we all might have jumped the gun with this one.

>>34922 >He was just a regular Earth hedgehog that got into some radioactive nuclear waste and rapidly evolved to become SONIC T. HEDGEHOG

>>34924 Yeah you're right but I still think the 2006 stuff on that page is inaccurate compared to how it is in the game. I don't think Sonic and Elise blowing out the flame is supposed to be 10 years in the past, it happens after Solaris destroys time and that's how they restore it. So it should either be at the beginning of the timeline or it shouldn't be listed at all. I know that story is filled with inconsistencies and contradictions but I don't think the game contradicts itself on this, the old timeline is destroyed and a new one is created

It's all very interesting, but what about pickles?

>>34926 >Time travel inconsistency I file that under "best not to think about it". I mean, Shadow and Mepheles are stuck in a timeloop of Shadow sealing and releasing him. It's either you don't think about it or you make a chart explaining things mobius loop style. And I ain't in the mood for charts.

>>34928 The way I interpreted it in the game was that the fight against Solaris reduces it back to a flame. Time doesn't exist anymore because Solaris "stole" it, and it can't exist again until Solaris is killed, and Elise kills Solaris by blowing out the flame that remains after the fight. So it shouldn't be "10 years ago", and it shouldn't even be in a timeline either way. This is how I make sense of it, but now Sonic Channel says that literally happens 10 years ago which I think is inconsistent with how it's portrayed in the game. Maybe I'm wrong and it actually is complete nonsense idk

>>34929 It's a "Mobius Strip". Everything happened at the precise time it happened even if later events would logically render it null. If you don't understand, it means you can do whatever the hell you want, even if its nonsensical so long as you don't invalidate your own existence. Bill and Ted rules essentially. Things did happen "10 years ago" even if the timeline got invalidated. Everything happened even if it no longer makes logical sense. This is why I told you not to think about it.

Baramdori Sonic

Balamwonderland Sonic

>>34964 Did anyone here play that? I see it go on sale for dirt cheap on Steam all the time.

>made 4/sthg/ OP >got banned I guess I'm stuck here with you guys.

>>34965 Played the demo way back, it was pants.

>>34966 <You'll just LOVE it here fren...

>Classic verse is in the past >umm actually no classicverse is an alt dimension >uhhh classicverse is in the past again. this time Sonic 4 is a part of it. >No you are not getting classic Shadow. No you are not getting modern Fang neither. go away!

>>34965 Fuck no, they couldn't even pay me to play it And on a side note it's a bummer to see it all go down like that because I actually really liked the Wii version of Rodea the Sky Soldier and thought Naka was being hard done by but turns out he was just a muppet

>>34965 Whenever people rag on a game endlessly I am tempted to play it out of curiosity and because I often find some fun in them. But with Balam I'm not even a little curious.

>>34969 >"Classic" Shadow

>>34966 >got banned What for?

>>34974 GUN ASSets

>>34965 I played through most of the Switch version. It's pretty easy (though some of the later levels add a bit of challenge) and is entirely carried by the artstyle and music. The gameplay itself is basic and a bit boring at times, but apart from a few costumes and the QTE segments there's nothing in the game that's outright bad. Once you get to level 4, you gain access to some costumes that break the game wide open and if you have the patience to farm them most of the tedium and difficulty from that point forward is largely nullified. The aesthetics were good enough to make the game worth playing for me. Oshima was firing on all cylinders for this and it really made me wonder why Sonic Superstars was so bland when this is what he is capable of. If you can pick it up for $15 or less (I bought my copy for $10) it's probably worth the money.

>>34969 Is it weird that I like how nebulous the "Classic" era is? Sonic did not canonically grow green eyes at some point as some form of fictitious puberty. There is just no explanation for that. There was just a point in time where the world's artstyle changed because it did. Even the adults had black eyes in the past. This is not some thing the characters notice or anything that affects the world. If a new character such as Elise has a flashback to a period that takes place during classic, she would still be modern. Same with Cream. Characters who logically would not be born while Sonic was a child are born anyways. Because Classic is "The past" It is not "ten years ago" nor is it "Five years ago" it is "the past" bluntly. I think that's beautiful.

>>34970 >>34972 I was looking forward to it because I'm a huge NiGHTSfag, but after it came out, everything I heard about the gameplay was extremely negative. That sucks. Still holding out hope for a NiGHTS 3 someday. At least a port of JoD pls

>>34974 I guess they don't like the source of the current 4/sthg/ OP pic

>>34975 So bare little girl ass and off-topic dramaspam is okay but fully clothed man butt is troo fraar? Why are the jannies over there so insecure?

Has Uekawa ever drawn NiGHTS, I wonder what he's look like in that artstyle?

>>34975 >>34981 What's the stated ban reason

>>34982 Yes, for Pinball Party.

Hi /fast/ >>34982 Yes, in Sonic Pinball Party's cover

>>34984 You beat me to it :P >>34975 /sthg/ is falling apart

>>34983 is it really off topic? is it because he looks like any other soldier?

>>34986 Sorry, friend. Guess you just weren't /fast/ enough.

>>34987 Guess they don't know the Sonic series well

>>34987 I've got hit with an off-topic ban for posting about Sonic, and I know others who have as well. It's literally just because a janny got his panties in a twist over something. That or a certain someone got his Discord kitten to mass report you.

>>34969 >No you are not getting modern Fang neither. go away! Hurts more than it should for what we could've had, damn you Sega and your asinine restrictions. >>34904 I unironically miss sprite comics, they had such a charm to them even if they were low-budget, cheesy and nonsensical.

>>34977 I think it's silly Two separate dimensions made more sense if they really wanted the split

>>34991 I remember reading some sprite comics when I was a kid/early teenager but I don't remember anything about them

>>34992 Agreed. Classic Sonic being chained to anything that happened before SA1 creates unnecessary restrictions on storytelling. Every classic game needs to be aware if they contradict posterior events from the modern games. This problem wouldn't exist if there was a timeline split post generations Also nice pic >>34993 Me too. I either read them on DeviantArt or some fansites

>>34987 >Public Reason Not the personal reason.

>>34990 funny thing is I only came back there because they keep copy pasting the same OP with outdated news and links instead of checking sthgtemplate rentry or at least update the news section

>>34994 Yeah. But I take it even further and say they should be different universes entirely since they went with the "Classic Sonic is mute" meme

>>34995 That's the only hint I got from them.

>>34997 They can be different universes/timelines/whatever. I don't think Classicnic being mute needs to be addressed because at this point seeing Classic Sonic speak in a game would be very jarring, at least for me who grew up with gens lol. Yes I do know that Classic Sonic always spoke, it's just that at this point I don't think you can go back on that. And I don't think it's that big of a deal anyways

>>34999 I mean I got introduced to the classics around the time Generations came out, and it's not like there is much media where you can see game Sonic with the classic design speak. To me Generations and the OVA and the Japanese manuals basically began existing all around the same time. I just don't like it because it's silly and not how the character was ever meant to be. If they're supposed to be the same Sonic at two different times it makes no sense that he doesn't speak at all like that. >at this point I don't think you can go back on that I don't know, they've gone back and forth on so many things. Besides I think he speaks in the Classic IDW comics. And in the Mania/Superstars stuff none of the characters talk at all. The whole thing is already jarring and inconsistent

whose bright idea was it to make 06 humans realistic style

>>35001 Nakamura I think, and it's because the concept of the game was "what if Sonic was real" I like the way they look in the prerendered cutscenes at least

>>35001 I'm guessing Yuji Naka. The franchise immediately doing a 180 after he got gone is evidence of this.

>>35000 He talks in IDW because it's a graphic novel. Sure mute comics exist but they're usually restricted to strips

>>35004 Yeah I get it. I'm just saying it's already inconsistent in both ways even in modern times. Sorry

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykTe1X_6yX0 It's funny how this starts normal, and then suddenly it sounds like Sonic 4

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckssGhXCGBM This one as well

>>35001 I miss them

I like the layouts of the stages in this Generations mod https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnJSnfnA1bw Especially the Mystic Ruins and Classic Emerald Coast. Mystic Ruins could have used a remix though

>>35016 so that girl wearing bunny ears... is that like blackface?

>>35017 Longclaw looking fucking huge

>>35019 She has the pass.

>>35019 It's acceptable because it's hot though.

The Wisps were a good idea

whisper was a good idea

>>35027 Always.

>>35027 In theory, yes. Shame about the execution.

I'm sad and bored Does anyone have anything fun to talk about

>>35034 What would happen if Sonic met the Joker?

>>35039 What would happen if Shadow met the Joker

>>35039 I would still be sad and bored because I don't care about the Joker

>>34984 >>34985 Uekawa NiGHTS is a tad underwhelming, but I guess staying true to the source material is better than taking unnecessary creative liberties.

Who would win in a fight between Knuckles and the Werehog?

>>35044 I want to say Werehog because it feels stronger and cooler in gameplay but canonically Knuckles is supposed to be physically stronger than Sonic while the Werehog is a weakened Sonic, so I think the right answer is Knuckles Plus Knuckles punches Sonic out of his Super form

>>35042 GET OUT

>>35034 Ideas for Sonic storybook spinoffs?

>>35030 But what WAS the theory?

>>35052 iliad / odyssey

>>35052 50 Shades of Gray

>>35052 Uncle Tom's Cabin

>>35046 Would Knuckles have been able to punch Sonic out of his Werehog form?

>>35057 I'm not confident in my Unleashed lore knowledge but since it seems tied to the sun and the moon maybe he should punch those instead of Sonic

I didn't know there's a Chaos Edition mod for Sonic Adventure https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWXowCbOwQ4 These get boring after you've seen all or most of the effects though to be honest. But I'm wasting all my time doing nothing regardless so whatever

We need more villainous women.

>>35060 she looks like bump

>>35061 YOU LOOK LIKE BUMP

>>35062 well uh i have brown hair i guess

>>35061 That's Evil Sally. Bump's design is based on Sally.

>>35066 >Bump's design is based on Sally. Huh I never thought about it but I guess that makes sense. No wonder she's so cute.

>>35066 Bump is Sally with all of the bad removed

>>35069 I don't dislike her anywhere near as much as Sally for some reason but the Archieness/Sallyness of her design is still offputting to me

>>35066 >>35067 She's based on Cassia.

>>35070 >the Archieness/Sallyness of her design is still offputting to me there's other options

>>35070 >>35069 why hate Sally?

>>35071 Also good.

>>35072 Personally I like just accepting designs for what they are. If I don't like it, someone else does. No point in completely redefining something to suit people who don't like the basic concept. That is how we got the Meta era. Characters like Sally shouldn't be redesigned to be hairless. Then it's just not Sally anymore. That's my take anyways.

>>35075 I agree, but there is also the bigger issue that Sally doesn't fit Sonic proper. So you either have her as a completely out of place character, or you don't have her at all

>>35075 the basic concept of bump is hot girl

>>35076 I think that's the most ingenuous way to have the character. Something like the reboot is fine. It still resembles Sally Acorn enough to be identifiable her. I'll say it like this: I would rather have people hate a character i like then have a character i like redesigned just so they could hate it a little less. Nobody needs to like what I like. There's plenty of characters I don't like, but I don't want to take them from the people who like them.

>>35071 So I've heard. I've also heard she wasn't meant to be as dumb and as horny as current /sthg/ makes her out to be

>>35078 That's reasonable

>>35078 I still think the reboot design doesn't fit though, it fits a lot more sure, but I still find it odd. It's not changed enough to fit, but as you said if you keep changing it then it's not even her anymore

>>35081 What else would you change about it?

If they want the comic characters to be popular enough to sell toys they should put them in media that people are actually interested in In other words I want them to make Kit popular because he's cute and I like water powers

>>35081 I was moreso saying that's the absolute limit. Reboot Sally is the best that can be done at turning Sally into a standard Sonic character design (Arguments can be made that thera are designs such as Big that are further, but that's neither here nor there). I also agree that she can't really be changed to a typical Sega character without removing her hair. Even with the stripe, it's just not normal for Sonic characters to have hair like that. You can tell because of how odd Reboot Sally looks from a profile view. Most Sonic game characters, if not all of them, are designed with their profile view in mind. Sally is not. Sally was designed for a 2D cartoon where part of her face would be aimed towards the camera most of the time. Her odd looking profile was not a concern. Kind of like how IDW characters have more complicated characters than the main cast, who (mostly) were designed for early 2000s consoles. This dissonance never really bothers me personally. I will throw in, lastly, that reboot Sally does read as a Sonic character. Not that she fits with how Sonic team designs characters, but her oval eyes, lack of a neck, and giant head are pretty distinctly Sonic things. A combination of things that really aren't that common outside of Sonic. Especially the missing neck.

>>35079 >I've also heard she wasn't meant to be as dumb and as horny as current /sthg/ makes her out to be she's bump girl as a deer she is definitely dumb and horny

>>35082 The hair I guess. But I agree at that point it's a completely different character

>>35084 (me) My wording on this is confusing. I wanted to clarify. Sally has traits that mark her as "Sonic Team would not do this" Such as hair as well as a design that is meant to be viewed from the front and not the side or back. That's why Sally always looks strange in 3D. Conversely, she has design traits that only really exist (in tandem) in the Sonic franchise. In most other media, eyes that sharp and elongated are seen as reptilian or hostile, but in Sonic, everyone has those eyes. She also has no neck. Her hands and feet are almost as large as her torso. Her head is bigger than her body ect. These are Sonic traits.

>>35084 >Kind of like how IDW characters have more complicated characters than the main cast Definitely doesn't apply to all of them but I see what you mean here, some can look weird

>>35085 Her original creator was the one who made the pic of her saying "Porn is bad for you."

>>35089 you do know that's a meme, right?

>>35089 That was an old /sthg/ meme nigger.

>>35059 >I Beat Sonic Adventure CHAOS Edition >skips Casinopolis Nice lying title

i want to play sonic games with sage

>>35080 Thanks. To me, redesigning Sally so that she fits with Sonic Team design principles, is making the same error Sega of America made in the first place, in erasing the original appeal of a character to conform with something else.

>>35090 >>35091 I'm aware, but why use Bump for it if she was meant to be horny since the beginning? Unless it was meant to be ironic I guess.

>>35095 >Unless it was meant to be ironic I guess. so, you don't know the meme

>>35094 I never thought about it like that, but you're right. Something I have thought of however, is Penders making his own comic out of his characters (or trying to). He seems to be handling it awfully. But conceptually I think it would be a good idea, continue 90s American Sonic as its own series without trying to merge it with Japanese Sonic. Which I guess applied to Archie for a long time, before they started to attempt to make it more like the games. If Penders was doing a good job and had access to all the characters SEGA wouldn't use then I think everyone could have been satisfied. But I'm no American Sonic expert so maybe what I just said is retarded

>>35097 I honestly think Penders has a lot of great ideas, but unfortunately his personality and personal issues get in the way of them.

>>34987 They got way worse since the site came back, I've seen them ban and delete threads way more quickly and frequently Which is crazy since 4chan lost a quarter of its population, now is the time for them to be less stringent on the rules so more people return, not the time to double down

This place has some really good discussion wtf

>>35018 I'm comparing it with the 3DS version of Emerald Coast, and it looks so lame. Especially act 2 since it doesn't seem to take any level design clues from the original, but even act 1 looks lame in comparison. I like how you can see Station Square in the background of the fan version at the beginning. Even though technically that's not in the original Sonic Adventure, but I understand that as a hardware limitation knowing most players wouldn't go backwards on their first playthrough, I don't think there's a point in replicating that in the background of a 2D stage

>>35101 Don't ruin it.

>>35103 i will discuss you're COCK

>>35101 Having sensible moderation and less riff raff mucking up the place really does wonders

>>35101 It's 4/sthg/ but without the shitposting and off topic trash

I like a lot of fanworks, but I think fans do have a habit of either making Sonic act like Steven Universe or Goku and he's neither of them and not in-between them either. It feels kind of pretentious to even point out. He shouldn't be acting like Spidey either. I don't think his character is insanely complex but there really are a lot of things he just doesn't do.

>>35107 Yeah but that feels silly to say when even the official media doesn't respect the character anymore

>>35108 Hard to argue with this comment. Damn.

did they ever write a song for mina and display it through sheet music

At the beginning part of the Giganto boss fight area there is this one rock you can easily Spin Dash off of to reach Giganto's head immediately. I noticed that while playing The Final Horizon and it was pretty fun to do, and easy to notice. That, among other things, made the boss rush a very different experience from playing those bosses for the first time. And that rock specifically felt like it was intentionally put there. But I know it wasn't.

it feels like the best part of sonic game design is the shit you're not supposed to do

>>35112 meant for >>35111

>>35112 I think it depends on the game, or sometimes the stage. But yeah Frontiers is definitely one of those games. Even then I think Sonic Team knew because they left in the Homing Dash and that's the most fun part of the game alongside the Spin Dash

What are your favorite Eggman Robots? Outside of major ones like Metal Sonic or Omega

sonic is my friend and we listen to 2000s emo rock music together

>>35116 I wish Tails was my friend :(

>>35117 What would you even talk about? All he'd do is babble non sense techno garble to satiate his own ego. He's a fraud.

>>35118 I would just listen to him if he happened to do something like that Regardless I don't think he would want to be my friend, and he would be right

>>35120 Cause you'd give him A THIRD TAIL, KNOW WHAT I MEAN? HIGH FIVE!

>>35121 ...No actually I don't get it. Sorry to disappoint

>>35115 I like the Eggpawn variants of Colors that greet you with a sign and the proceed to beat you up with it.

>>35124 >the cake layers as different zones I love art like this.

is there any sort of sonic mmo or lifesim out there

>>35125 I find it kinda funny that they skipped Lost World But yeah it's nice

>>35124 This would make a great captcha.

MIIIIIIIIINAAAAAAAA

>>35128 As in having to type the name of the stage?

i cant believe mina manifested into reality and killed every /sthg/ poster except for me this is my story

>>35132 Get back in there! You can't escape the SGW.

>>35132 REAL MIIINAAA

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Idx7om2i_0 TAS looks impressive in SA2 with all the available moves (at least in the Sonic runs, I only watched those for now)

Touch the sheep

>>35140 so do you think abt originally had her as a cow

>>35141 I'd imagine she and many other characters went through a bunch of different animal variations before being finalized. I'd love to see the scrapbooks of official artists like ABT and Butler, I can only imagine the rough drafts and private stashes...

>>35131 Yeah, I bet it'd filter a lot of people.

>>34981 >>34987 I'd say the mods are trigger happy after being Down for a week Sorry for the pun, hehe

Looking for volunteers to proofread this fanfic rewrite I'm doing. Anyone interested, hit me up.

>>35155 What kind of fic?

>>35156 I've mentioned it before, but I'm rewriting Everyday Life, Captain Awf's defunct human x mobian.

Hi guys

>>35157 Good luck with that.

Thinking this morning about how fucked the Sonic Cinematic Universe is at this point. 3 is the peak of the mountain and I feel like Paramount knows it. Not only is it going to get murdered by Zelda, Amy just isn't a draw for audiences like Shadow is. Also the spin offs are going to flop hard (yes even a Shadow movie) >>35158 Good morning

>>35159 Polite way to say "no" lol. Thanks anyways.

>>35160 This is why I think the next movie is going to have more than just Amy and Metal. This is the same situation as Tails at the end of movie 1, people who just saw the movie for the first time are going to be excited but it won't carry the hype after several years

>>35160 I thought Metal was cool even if they kinda killed his hype by making him literal fodder, and Amy showing up to help can make people anticipate more character reveals/mentions. That's what gets people to watch more.

>>35162 Will will have Rouge and Omega as well. The plot is going to be extremely loosely based on the game, and it will be Sonic Tails Amy vs Shadow Rouge Omega until the final act where their team up.

>>35164 Maybe, but these movies have been hard to predict so far

>>35164 I'm expecting Rouge and Omega to show up for the Shadow movie 100%. Also I expect there to be a lot more flash back scenes to save some money and I'm totally ok with that since it would give us more time to flesh out Shadow that we didn't get with 3

>>35165 >the Shadow movie 100% That's not even confirmed yet As far as I'm concerned it's nothing more than a fantasy right now, just like the Tails movie

>>35166 Quoted the wrong post >>35167

4chins has been back for a week now

>>35169 Ok

>>35169 should have stayed dead desu

>>35165 Surge doesn't care about Kit. Hell, Kit doesn't care about Surge too beyond using her as a crutch for his insecurities.

>>35121 Now this is a canon ship.

>>35167 Wait, are you saying the youtubers lied to me?!

>>35169 They should cus it's cute >>35174 Probably lol I don't really keep up with movie news but afaik it's just something they considered or talked about. Like when movie 1 came out and they said they were thinking about making a Robotnik spinoff, idk why they talk about hypotheticals so much, maybe it's common in the movie industry

>>35172 Aahhh I keep misquoting today >>35175

>>35176 >>35175 It sure is cute. I could see them developing true feelings for each other as the story goes on. Would be a cathartic resolution to their subplot.

I think Infinite could work as a (comparatively weak) semi-recurring villain independent from Eggman

>>35178 Only if Mephiles is allowed to come back too.

>>35180 Well he already has at least once recently But I agree it would be cool to have Mephiles as well. They are very different characters writing wise

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQDPuoGzrDk This looks well made. Usually these just have an excessive amount of enemy/obstacle spam, but this seems to have a good balance

Marine

I never liked playing as Big in Adventure, but I'm glad they brought back fishing as a minigame in Frontiers. It fits a lot better than making it its own story, and the controls are simpler. Also it's cool they got that little jingle to reference the Adventure fishing music

Oh yeah, Chao Tales exists. Episode 5 came out yesterday and nobody talked about it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgZHXCQMOVc&list=PL6YtbPaCgKrRHf9t9ydPXAszOxk6gvAEO&index=5 ...And I have nothing to say myself either. I didn't even watch the previous two episodes until now. The little pink rabbit is cute I guess, but the Flicky looks weird with those colors.

>>35187 >...And I have nothing to say myself either. I didn't even watch the previous two episodes until now You're not the only one. I'm happy for anyone that's enjoying the little epsiodes Sega are putting out but I just want the gameplay back

>>35188 I haven't seen anyone actively enjoying them, or rather, looking forward to them. They feel pointless. Maybe babies enjoy them given they're on YouTube Kids

Eventually people will be buying and actively defending (if they aren't already) that "Game Key Card" and I'll be disappointed

>>35186 Most classic promo art had crowds of humans in the backgrounds as well.

>>35192 I don't know about most but yeah there's some

No one ever talks about German 90s Sonic or French 90s Sonic

>>35191 I'll defend it right now. You don't own physical games either, it's just a license. It was already anti-consumer, the only difference is the data is on the copy.

>>35195 That's not a defense, that's just further criticism of the industry, which I actually agree with. But with a physical game the data is on the media and in some cases you can use tools or modded hardware to make your own backup copies. This is yet another attempt at making that harder

>>35194 >German 90s Sonic or French 90s Sonic I knew about the French Comic, but wasn't German Sonic just some electric company ad?

>>35197 My post was kind of a joke, the only German Sonic thing I know of is that music album I posted which comes with some odd looking screensaver video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-5iuLLZmtY&list=PLZPAwMeuoHIL2IlxHjKULEDDKeu0oXS4n https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZxgMCOQNN0

>>35195 Yeah, I see a lot of people hung up on physical media as a solution, but while it is good to have a physical storage device, that is only a minor victory. What degrades ownership are remotely activated licenses and all those "ownership checks" that they keep implementing in an attempt to combat piracy, and those don't discriminate whether your copy is physical or digital.

>>35195 >You don't own physical copies Galaga on the Atari 2600 isn't a live service game, dumbass

>>35200 He's talking about modern games from the perspective of the companies. They don't want you to own it, they claim you don't own it, even when you do

>>35202 Then he's a dumbass. You own a physical copy. Sega can't seem suits to you're house and demand you turn over all your Genesis carts. They own the IP, but you own the product.

>>35203 >>35200 Let me clarify: You own the physical copy but that only grants you a license to play it. >Sega can't send suits to your house No, but they could disable your license key and then you can't play because of DRM.

>>35195 If your account gets banned from Nintendo's servers, you won't be able to download the game, rendering the Game Key Card a useless piece of plastic.

>>35206 >Disable your licence key >Physical cartridge What the monkeyshit are you even on about?

>>35206 >>35208 There's a lot of confusion going on in this conversation lol

Orange Roofs is a more fitting name than Rooftop Run Rooftop Run sounds cooler though

>>35208 Switch 2 Game Key Cards. The games are fully digital, but you need to insert a blank cartridge to download them.

>>35211 Great, Bitch 2 discussion. You know what's great? Playing Switch games in a emulator. The Switch 2 is going to be piss easy to crack cause (just like the Wii U before it), its just a more powerful Switch. And now that Bitchtendo isn't selling their console in Russia and China, both those very large demographics are gonna give less shit than they did before.

>>35212 I think that's unlikely. The console hacking scene is barely active nowadays. People don't seem to care anymore. The Wii U took years to hack, and the exploits used for the Wii U weren't related to those used for the Wii. Also, the Switch was hacked through a hardware exploit that's only present in the first batch of models, and through hardware modifications. I don't think there is any public software exploit to this day.

>>35213 >Hardware Has nothing to do with emulation which is what I was talking about.

>>35211 >Switch 2 Oh so you ARE a retard. Why would you buy a Shitendo product anyway?

>>35214 Sorry. I was responding to >The Switch 2 is going to be piss easy to crack and forgot the previous sentence was talking about emulators. But even then, they need to understand some things about the hardware and software to make emulators, so that can cause complications. And again, there doesn't seem to be as much interest, and Nintendo has been shutting down emulators. An emulator sounds much more likely right now, but we'll see. It's kinda weird that hackers were still modding and emulating Nintendo hardware when they largely gave up on all other consoles. It's unclear if Switch 2 will even be a success right now.

I want to eat Sonic’s chili dog

>>35217 That's rude. Now what's he supposed to eat?

>>35219 Nothing! AHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>35216 >It's kinda weird that hackers were still modding and emulating Nintendo hardware when they largely gave up on all other consoles 1) form factor. the success of the steam deck shows that people, apparently, enjoy the form factor of the switch even independently from being nintendo fans 2) exclusives. other consoles have far fewer exclusives these days

I think it would be cool if they made an anime (or even a western cartoon, but I would be more worried about that) that just adapts all the games in order without any gimmick or any major deviations. Basically a better Sonic X. Actually, isn't it kinda weird that this isn't already a thing? It seems the most obvious route to take a Sonic anime, instead they just did Sonic X which is kinda weak compared to the games, even the ones it adapted

>>35221 We have yet to see if the Switch 2 will be a success though. Nintendo's followup consoles usually have bad sales compared to the originals

i want to post here more but i dont really have anything to say

>>35230 Which Sonic game do you think has the most creative environments?

>>35231 hmm well the original trilogy is obviously pretty creative, but i like all the different stage themes in advance too

>>35232 I like those, but I think the most creative are the ones in Colors. They took what made some of the classic zones interesting and expanded on them. I think they're creative because they're quite varied but still fit with the game's theme, and there is a strong narrative element in them. Something the classics get rightfully praised for, but I think is only fully realized here

>>35233 TBH ive only played the DS version of colors but i remember the stages being really pretty. i liked the glowing nightlife theme it had going on

>>35234 Colors DS is nice too, even if I don't like it as much. I'll say I was disappointed by how Planet Wisp looks though, it's my favorite zone and I don't think Colors DS did it well aside from the background and those plants that try to eat Sonic. They overused the drill Wisp so most of the stage just looks gray. Colors Wii and Generations did it much better. The rest of the zones are nice though. Starlight Carnival is also very different, but it's still good

>>35231 Shuffle

>>35230 That's fine, we take it at our own pace. Less we start twitter sceencap posting.

>>35236 All I know/remember about Shuffle's zones is that the first one is Emerald Coast which is cool >>35237 Two or three days ago we had a good speed with mostly good posts. Yesterday and today were much slower. I think almost everyone has left at this point. Activity here lasted much longer than I thought it would have

>>35230 at lest you posted some cute art

>>35231 Secret rings and it's not even close desu

Bun!

>>35238 Shuffle is actually my favorite aesthetic with Sonic, it really inspires me in everything creative I do. It's like some kind of weird modern fantasy style on everything in the game. When they made a Mario party clone, the safe thing would be to just throw greenhill and a bunch of predictable shit in the game, but they didn't. They made something completely original and memorable. It's really damn cool, like Sonic meets Yugioh.

>>35249 more examps, this freaky purple priest design, this dj room that looks straight out of 90s Sonic promotional art and this jungle path, the jungle path could have just been a series of dirt paths, but no they had to make it weirdly unique. I mean look at that eggman sign, look at it's post, why is it like that? Why didn't they just make a wood sign? They didn't. I love this game.

>>35250 >>35249 I wish I had a Dreamcast, four VMUs and three friends to play through Sonic Shuffle with. I'm almost tempted to play it in an emulator, but I'd have to use cheats to beat the bots and that just wouldn't be fun.

>>35253 >I wish I had friends to play with Same

>>35238 i just checked the other board and it seems like it sbeen pretty slow on both >>35240 i fucking love the whole atmosphere and aesthetic of this game

>>35261 >it sbeen pretty slow on both Anon this thread is from Thursday

>>35262 yes i just said its slow lol what is your point

>>35231 Sonic Heroes.

>>35231 Probably Sonic 2

>>35259 >>35260 We need a Sonic rhythm game.

>>35267 Get whoever did the music in Rush. Those songs are all earworms.

>>35263 The 4chan thread is like 10 hours old and has more than twice as many posts as this thread does Their speed isn't comparable at all

>>35268 Can Eggman defeat Sonic in a groove battle?

>>35270 Yeah, I just feel like Sonic has no rhythm. Not sure why...

>>35271 Sonic does as he please, his movement is too erratic and unpredictable to comply with rhythm Like the wind.

>>35268 Hideki Naganuma doesn't work with Sega anymore, so that's never going to happen.

>>35277 Well that's a bummer, but not surprising really after all this time.

>>35278 The worst part of it all is that Blaze no longer has her theme music due to Rush OST being in limbo.

Come to think of it, Blaze has probably been fucked over the most of any mainline Sonic Character. >Her debut game can't be rereleased due to the publishing rights being in legal limbo >Her theme music no longer belongs to Sega >Her creator (Nishimura) no longer works at Sega >She's canonically insecure about her flat chest >Shun Nakamura assumes she died permanently at the end of 06 >She was effectively a non-entity in 06 to begin with >Her subseries was scrapped before she could get a full team >She hasn't been playable in a platformer since 2007 >90% of any interest in her nowadays comes from shipping

Ian Flynn.exe

>>35281 >Shun Nakamura assumes she died permanently at the end of 06 Sorry, my newfaggotry is probably showing, but could you elaborate on where this comes from? I've seen many people saying this but I could never find a source.

>>35287 >Sorry, my newfaggotry is probably showing, but could you elaborate on where this comes from? Around the time Forces came out, an interviewer asked Nakamura why Blaze wasn't in Forces, his response was that she had sacrificed herself in 06. I don't have a link to it handy umfortunately, but it shouldn't be too hard to find.

>>35281 >She's canonically insecure about her flat chest She should be.

>>35291 Flat. Is. JUSTICE!

>>35186 >spider girl Wait, what? Do we have a full pic of her?

>>35293 She's a character designed by Satoshi Okano. Only appears on a poster in the last section of Speed Highway.

>>35299 Oh yeah, her. To think, she has an entire model made and rendered, yet all we have are low res, cropped shots from that poster. How have we had Pokemon gigaleaks but no Sonic leak?

>>35305 We've actually had lots of Sonic leaks over the years, including that recent Sonic 4 and Sonic CD 2011 leak, but yeah nothing to the scale of the Pokémon stuff in recent years. As much as I would like to see Sonic Team's secret files, at the same time it's probably for the best that it's not happening... I wish game developers were more open with this stuff. They should know we want to see it. Though obviously some things would never get released officially, especially if they don't fit the current branding

The name GUN has never been pronounced correctly in English media. They're not called GUN because of the English word "gun". The acronym Guardian Units of Nations was backformed to fit the Japanese word "gun", which means military. So when they talk about GUN or a generic "the military" in Japanese, the phrases sound equivalent, and the difference can be noticed in the closed captions. Of course this doesn't work in English, and the Paramount series made it into a joke about the English word, which I assume was translated into Japanese for the Japanese dubs of the Paramount stuff, and I think that's why Dark Beginnings used the English pronunciation now, brand consistency with the movies in Japan.

>Silver gets all the girls. I mean the future is not going to repopulate itself.

>>35309 Why's he using his powers on them?

I used to dislike Orbot and Cubot when they were new, and eventually I just stopped caring about them. But the latest TailsTube episode made me realize it was probably the writing, because I actually enjoyed Orbot in that one. I also haven't seen a majority of Sonic Boom episodes (since I didn't care about it while it was running and I couldn't watch it on TV), but I enjoyed some of the ones I've seen, maybe that would have made me like them more if I had seen them. I've been thinking of watching or rewatching some episodes lately

>>35309 Silver is too beta to get all the girls. Lanny hasn't even given him the blowjob she owes him.

>>35314 She owes him nothing

>>35292 The motto of the Sol Empire.

Is it just me or does /fast/ seem extra /slow/ today?

>>35318 4/sthg/ is also even slower than it was yesterday. I'm here if you want... I'm starting to get sad again.

>>35318 Activity seems to come and go in waves.

At this point I think CrossWorlds is all we're getting this year unfortunately. It was nice to have regular platformer releases for a while

>>35319 >I'm here if you want... I'm starting to get sad again. I wish I could stay, but I have work I need to get done today. Hope you feel better anon.

>>35323 Thank you. Good luck with whatever you need to do

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTFZTCZkBwE This guy thinks they're going to make a remastered version of Frontiers soon. I doubt it's going to happen (unless it's just a Switch 2 thing) but the game does have many technical issues that need to be addressed. They could also make cyberspace look more original

>>35331 A remaster really does not seem like it would be worth anyone's time unless there is a huge enough difference from the original release

>>35326 Congrats /fast/, that was a fine first bout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vN4PrL2HN2c Eggman will be coming up after

If Lost World had a vocal theme, what genre would it have been?

>>35349 I would say something similar to Reach for the Stars but even that seems to risky for Lost World. In fact I have a hard time imagining a Lost World that has a vocal theme at all. I was hoping they'd make one for Shadow Generations or Sonic X Shadow Generations. The intro theme sounds so nice, I would have liked that as a full song

>>35343 cute

>>35327 that would be weird and cute

>>35351 >I would say something similar to Reach for the Stars but even that seems to risky for Lost World Oh man that's comical to me as someone that thinks Reach for the Stars is too light for Sonic and is more fitting for a Tails and Cream game

>>35348 worst IDW OC yet

>>35322 All will be forgiven if we get obscure Sonic characters in it.

>>35362 Who would be worth getting? The spider girl?

>>35360 Yeah, certain aspects of Colors were already pushing the limits, and SEGA took its success to mean that they should do... Lost World. They took the unfitting part of Colors to an extreme and made a whole game out of it >and is more fitting for a Tails and Cream game I want that!

>>35363 That would be cool. I wonder if anyone currently at Sonic Team remembers her. Satoshi Okano does since he created her and posted about her in recent years, but I don't think he works at SEGA anymore

>>35348 Wait did the new issue come out already?

>>35368 No just the 3 page preview

>>35369 Oh ok, thanks.

>>35351 >In fact I have a hard time imagining a Lost World that has a vocal theme at all. Yeah, you're right, it would be like giving New Super Mario Bros a vocal theme, it just wouldn't fit with what the game is going for. Still, Sonic Team managed to put a vocal theme into almost every game they made prior to 2011 that wasn't on a cartridge. Perhaps it could've gotten something similar to "You're My Hero" from 3D Blast or "Chant this Charm" from Billy Hatcher.

>>35374 Lost World doesn't have a vocal theme because SEGA of America insisted that vocal themes are bad and shouldn't exist. Sonic Team never agreed with this, but they had to do what they said. This was revealed when they were talking about the music in Forces. I'm sure this SEGA of America nonsense influenced many aspects of the game. The Zetis are based on the Oni from Japanese culture, I suspect Sonic Team insists on constantly bringing them back because they consider them their only symbol of power in that game. They also didn't bother including it in Shadow Generations at all. I think they feel similar to us about Lost World >"You're My Hero" from 3D Blast I like that! Well, it's Generations that made me like it, I wouldn't know it exists otherwise, but it's catchy and the lyrics are cute. I should play Billy Hatcher some day

>>35359 I think it would be very personal and sweet.

>>35376 I think it's a bit too personal for an apology. That sounds more like a birthday present or something.

>>35377 Hmmm you're probably right. Well maybe just start with an apology and work up to personal made clothing when his birthday comes.

>>35375 >Lost World doesn't have a vocal theme because SEGA of America insisted that vocal themes are bad and shouldn't exist. Wow, Sonic Team really got cucked hard with Lost World. >Pontaff forced them to include Orbot and Cubot against their will >SoJ forced them to make it Wii U exclusive >Feedback from Critics forced them to have a cartoony aesthetic >Feedback from Focus Groups forced them to abandon the boost and switch to sky dildos >SoE stripped the multiplayer mode out of their game when porting it to PC for no reason The Deadly Six really were the the only thing they were able to get their way with and even then their species was changed from Oni to Zeti in the game's international releases. >I suspect Sonic Team insists on constantly bringing them back because they consider them their only symbol of power in that game. >They also didn't bother including it in Shadow Generations at all. I think they feel similar to us about Lost World It's really intriguing that the one game they had full control over, SxSG, didn't have a single reference to Lost World while everything else they've had less control over (Rumble, TSR, Crossworlds, Dash, Runners, etc.) have all had Zetis in major roles for no real reason. They want to force everyone else to remember Lost World while they leave it behind.

>>35379 >They want to force everyone else to remember Lost World while they leave it behind. I'd the same thing lol

i want lanolin to give me a scarf made of her wool

>>35382 >She sheepishly hands you a hand-made scarf made of her own wool >"Sorry if it smells like coffee and me..." >anon huffs it deeply in front of her as she blushes deeply and then sex happens

>>35383 >and then sex happens ):<

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wN90zP-V_Cc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np8SjpJYGeU Sonic characters swearing. How do you feel about that? Do you want it to be a regular thing or should it stop being a thing altogether forever?

>>35384 What!? You look Welsh.

>>35385 They should only swear when it suits the tone of the game and even then they should do it sparingly so that players know that it's serious when they swear. Robots like Omega shouldn't swear at all.

unknown from me is the best song ever holy shit. knuckles used to be so cool

>>35389 What do you mean anon? Knuckles is still cool right?

>>35388 So does it count as naked if she wears clothes made of her own wool?

>>35388 I'm suddenly hungry for leg of lamb

>>35390 NTA, but Knuckles has been reduced to "Sonic's other Sidekick" when back in the Adventure Days he'd get his own story and motivations in the games that wasn't directly tied to Sonic and would even get into fights with Sonic (the last time they fought being in Battle).

>>35391 You wouldn't be naked if you wore clothes made of your own hair.

theme of tikal is the best song ever holy shit. tikal is so cool.

i feel like knuxadow is such an underrated pairing. even just platonically. people always complain with shadow ships that shadow wouldnt want a super close relationship so it makes sense to pair him with the other red loner guy. i also just like seeing them interact in general

>>35395 tikal!!!!!
