Dabir posted:Which fangame is it that unironically uses Metal Gear Rising's final boss theme in its own final boss? I know it's one of the ones by the BtS/AtS guy. It has to be Sonic Chrono Adventure then, as that's the only one of his that doesn't have an entirely custom soundtrack. That game is a super weird experimental thing anyway, it's an open world Metroid style game complete with ability upgrades, and there's Sonic CD time travel on top of that. I thought it got very tedious with backtracking pretty quickly. The way Sonic controls really isn't made for the style of game.

I can't imagine any Sonic game more annoying than an exploration based Sonic game. CD nails it by having the exploration be an optional aspect while also still being optimized for speed play through. Even thinking about a Sonjc Metroidvania makes me PHYSICALLY ILL

How do you feel about remixes that feature new lyrics? I've heard a few cringey ones but I've noticed that they overall seem to have improved in quality in recent years. #10 Frictionless - SuperiorX feat Jivemaster Sonic 2 - Metropolis, Sonic 3 - Marble Garden https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EvdUg4_mo7s

Robotnik Nudes posted:Even thinking about a Sonjc Metroidvania makes me PHYSICALLY ILL I wouldn't rule out the possibility of it working, if it went the route of Order of Ecclesia, instead of Symphony of the Night. By which I mean: Find upgrades in later levels which unlock alternate routes when you replay earlier stages, instead of backtracking through a single huge interconnected hub. Edit: vvv Right, the Mystic Melody. I totally forgot that existed. Sue fucked around with this message at 15:23 on Aug 2, 2016 |

I'm playing Sonic 2 HD on my Surface via Bluestacks and it's surprisingly good to play if you grip the tablet like a phone; the on-screen controls are large enough that I never miss a button press, plus the screen size is pleasingly huge.

Chrono Adventure was basically a huge experimental piece by the creator please don't take it as a quality indicator of his other work. Before/After the Sequel are super good. But yeah, I tried to play Chrono Adventure but it's just a little too weird and not that fun.

they should bring back blaze as the secondary protagonist. that's my opinion

I liked Blaze because she was cool and I liked alternate universe Sonic being a Cat. Shame what happened since her games.

If just counting games, Blaze is honestly the best female Sonic character.

it's weird to me that there weren't more indie sonic-likes made. you got like a billion nes style platformers and metroidvanias but the only complete sonic-like game i can think of is freedom planet.

Unable to control my latest bout of Sonic ManiaTM, I decided to drop a couple bucks on the iPhone port of Sonic 2. Holy poo poo this feels good to play. It's so smooth. I don't think I could ever go back to the old versions of this game. This is literally the first time I have ever enjoyed playing a game using a virtual d-pad.

blaze is one of the few characters added in the modern era of sonic that is really good and should stick around forever

I don't like removing characters- I'd rather gradually adjust them until they're good. SA's adjustment of Amy Rose is probably an OK example of that, in that the character is at least a little better. Boom's treatment of the same character shows the end result. Dark Brotherhood is like the only exception. Groovelord Neato posted:it's weird to me that there weren't more indie sonic-likes made. you got like a billion nes style platformers and metroidvanias but the only complete sonic-like game i can think of is freedom planet. The game's engine is tricky to copy, the design required is really demanding, and the fanbase is completely intolerable. A very small number of people have been able to completely finish a sonic-esque game project, be it a fangame or a commercial product, and not have it get torn to shreds. Almost the entirety of that list of people are now working on Sonic Mania. Discendo Vox fucked around with this message at 02:08 on Aug 3, 2016 |

I think we mentioned Ken Penders too many times during all this renewed Sonic hype because he has risen again in the form of asserting his copyright against Archie and SEGA.

Actually reading further into it it looks like it's not entirely his doing, like at all. But he suspects he'll be involved because he spurred on some freelancers to take action a while ago.

On what leg can he or his demented followers possibly stand on now that the comic went through a major reboot?

So Scott Fulop, who hasn't worked in years, founded a company like a month ago to trademark Mammoth Mogul, a character who was used up until the reboot, but not after that. And now he's decided to sue Archie for all the stuff they did in the past with his character. Because he and everyone else knows Archie has none of the original contracts (lost to an office fire) so they can say whatever they want about Archie ripping them off.

Would a judge recognize the bullshit for what it is and throw the case out, though? The ship should have sailed on getting these lawsuits in by now.

The only thing I know about Mammoth Mogul from second-hand info is that he's immortal and at some point had the realization that he's immortal and Sonic the Hedgehog isn't so there's no reason he can't just wait until Sonic dies of old age and THEN take over the world. Which, to be fair, is a pretty good super-villain plan.

He also decides to spend that immortal time running a casino and just loving with sonic but not actually doing anything illegal. Just full on "I'm going to have Sonic get angry, storm down to my casino, wreck the place, so he looks like a maniac and I look like a legit business man who just got ransacked. Why? Because gently caress Sonic."

That's from after the new writing crew took over, and another example of why I have (weird, detached) sour grapes about them having to reboot everything. Mr. Fortitude posted:If Christian Whitehead represents the best of the Sonic fanbase, Ken Penders represents the worst.

The whole thing is just to maintain the IP grab and try to extort money from Archie/Sega.
