New Sonic racing looks good, I like the idea of Sonic Blitz, and a new Sonic manga? Sonic series is looking good tbh.

His character arc/development in Adabat happens out of nowhere, with barely any leadup to it.Finished Unleashed. Eggman land can fuck itself. Other then that, i thought it was a good game. Do people hate Chip? i always thought he was pretty likeable. his quips dont over stay their welcome and he works off well with Sonic personality.
>expands Eggmanland into it's own countrywhile Eggman sits around and does nothing,
I think an underappreciated aspect of the Adventure era games, especially the two Adventure games themselves, that made people like them was that the plots for them actually has a lot of momentum, twists and turns, and immediate consequences of what just happened. There's something the South Park writers said somewhere about how they like to avoid "and then this happened" writing, and instead go for "but then this happened". It's a bit of an oversimplification, but it gets their point across that they want each plot point to be a direct response to or complication of the previous plot point, and not just things happening as they need to to get the plot from point A to point B, and I think it'll get my point across when it comes to Sonic games.>expands Eggmanland into it's own country
<while Eggman sits around and does nothing
I get your point though.
Writing with Sonic games from that era was always kinda blah though. At least you could say with the adventure games that they had a sort of "cheese" factor, combined with the wonky early 3d facial animations and terrible dialogue reading, that made them more tolerable as sort of a "so bad it's good" kind of way. Once they started going the route of having sonic hamfist sarcastic quips at literally everything starting with Colors, that's when things went REALLY south IMO. Like I really REALLY hate the writing for Sonic Lost World. They could have handled the "sonic teams with eggman" thing a hell of a lot better than what they did with Tails acting like a little bitch and getting jealous and shit.
A Sonic vs Tails is LONG TIME COMING, but it barely happened in Lost Worlds, and it's still a pending subject since Sonic fought all of his friends at some point for one reason or another.hey could have handled the "sonic teams with eggman" thing a hell of a lot better than what they did with Tails acting like a little bitch and getting jealous and shit.
let me know when this faggot shit includes Sally Acorn, Mammoth Mogul, Tekno, Porker Lewis or Scratch and Grounder.New mobile game has popped up. Seems like Pokemon TCG Pocket but with mini games.

*spits out fucking drink*You guys need to check out the Retro thread on that new Sonic Blitz mess. The datamined character list implies they are going fucking CRAZY with the roster on this thing. We're talking one-off characters from fucking ADVENTURES OF SONIC THE HEDGEHOG. We're talking MANIC AND SONIA. This shit is going to be schizokino.
Here's a gay image one of them put together to show all of them off. The models/cards/renders at the top are real leaks, so we already have the likes of Bean and the fucking Battle Kukku from Tails Adventure. This also means putting up with the crying lesbians from IDW but if that means I get MOTHERFUCKING PSEUDOSONIC I'm willing.

ALERT: THERE IS A NON-ZERO CHANCE BARTLEBY MONTCLAIR OF DRESDIN WILL APPEAR IN A MODERN SONIC GAME.
............. is it?A Sonic vs Tails is LONG TIME COMING
I think at this point in time (always subject to change of course) it's sort of been solidified in the mainline SEGA material we are never getting any sort of meaningful growth, change or progression in the franchise. we've reached this point where most characters in the modern games have either been regressed or transitioned entirely to their 'this is what they are and all they'll ever be' phase of just being basic personalities that don't really change.
Oh yeah, I'd of course love for Sonic to be interesting and utilize the "lesser" cast members in pretty much any meaningful way, I just definitely think we're in the 'let's not even bother' phase of the IP.Given that Sonic much like Mario is indeed one of those 'Status Quo' franchises it's to be expected that past the early years of a IP's infancy they'll eventually take solace and either run out of creativity or just don't bother because they've established a good amount of loyalists that will stick around even if it's the same mundane schtick.
But said creativity is also hampered or gutted because we get saddled with:
>Writers who have no major experience or potential interest with past games' lore and come up with whatever they want even if it feels really jarring in tone.
>Muh DEI/sensitivity censorship-agenda snakes.
>Higher-ups fucking over development. (I'd seriously wonder how Boom would have turned out if SEGA didn't fuck Big Red Button over with that Nintendo contract deal)
>External drama like the Penders case that made SEGA have even more of a iron grip in terms of creative writing over the series when outsourcing to different teams. (Though in IDW's case, good. Fuck that shit.)
It's a shame because I'd really like to see the Chaotix be a somewhat dysfunctional but still effective team again, as well as Omega, Blaze and Silver actually getting to do something in a different setting rather than just being relegated to spinoff roster or memberberry fodder.
It was fun. Of the Meta era, this show had the most merit in terms of Sonic when not factoring in gameplay. Fun cast with a very oddly great amount of wit.View attachment 7548590
I've always wanted to know what the fanbase thought of this show. I know absolutely nothing about sonic whatsoever, never played any of the games or anything like that. But my nephew watched this all the time when I would babysit him and I grew very fond of the characters and adult wink nod humor. It has become one of my go to brainless shows for when i'm stressed out and i've seen it several times now, i like it a lot even though it can be childish at times.
Did fans appreciate the schtick or did they find it insulting? Also are there any inside jokes I would have missed?
The show was actually meant to be a tie-in to a game on the Wii U, but for reasons both in and out of the developers' control it was a complete steaming pile, I'd even say the absolute worst Sonic game and that's title has some competition. The show was written by different people and took an even more comedy-focused approach. A lot of general sentiment you'll about the game is in the contrast to the show being good but the game being godawful.View attachment 7548590

Funniest thing about Boom is them acknowledging ChrisI think the biggest sperging was from Chris-chan himself with the whole blue arms thing.
