Question Time

>When did you start coming to the general?

>How did you find the general?

>Do you enjoy the general?

>Do you have any fond memories here?

>You think we'll make it to #600?

#500 BOYS

not really but let's just pretend it is

...

Nth for Tails!

>When did you start coming to the general?
First thread

>How did you find the general?
The /v/ thread it was first linked to.

>Do you enjoy the general?
Enough to still be here.

>Do you have any fond memories here?
Storytiming, the birthday card, other moments I'm forgetting

>You think we'll make it to #600?
Probably

Requesting Silver, Gold, Doctor, and the bits still falling through the portal, completely bored and trying to pass the time.

...

>first start coming
Been on this ride since the /co/ marathon. The Ride was better.
>find the general
Just kinda hopped along.
>enjoy
Yeah. Only time I don't is when actual retards shit up the place and are not productive from any point of view.
>fond memories
Yeah. Each storytime is wonderful here. People actually discuss it while it's being dumped unlike /co/ and it doesn't turn into a furfag thread like on /v/.
>#600
If katana shitshow can make it to over 3k threads in their general, we can hit 1000 easy.

>>When did you start coming to the general?
Only earlier this year
>>How did you find the general?
Got back in to playing the games / started reading the comic and wondered if there was a Sonic general, turns out there was.
>>Do you enjoy the general?
It's pretty good
>>Do you have any fond memories here?
Being new, only the 25th Anniversary stream where we watched the OVA together. That was fun.
>>You think we'll make it to #600?
Unless the comics stop and the next game is '06 tier, I don't see why not.

Let's celebrate

We finally hit #500! Here's an animated thing. I tried to make it look as simple and cute as possible

My guiltiest pleasure.

>when did you start coming to the general.
Around August of 2014 it was right before Bump was born I believe.

>how did you find the general?
I was just browsing tbqh.

>do you enjoy the general?
Most of the time however there are a lot of genuine idiots on here. And I don't mean that because they disagree with something I mean they are actually stupid.

>do you have any fond memories here?
A few. I honestly didn't expect a fapfic I created over the course of two hours to be so well received. Creating the idea and character of Sage was also really fun. Unfortunately because of that I am now emotionally attached to her at an extent.

>do you think we'll make it to 600?
At this point yes. If the comic haitus didn't kill us nothing will. Sonic can literally be sold to Konami and be turned into a pachinko machine and we'd still make it to at least thread 800.

HOT DAMN. I want to be bumped.

Around mid 300's.

When it was mentioned here or there during my time on other sonic forums.

>Yes, very much! So much that I do/did drawfag stuff like (Was gonna post that myself but glad someone else did.) Personally I find this place to be an oasis among Veeky Forums. The shitposting is minimal and most people here are chill.

>Do you have any fond memories here?
abt doing Q&A and answering some of my questions here, though I'm glad it's more common than I thought

Overall yes, despite its flaws. Kind of like Sonic as a whole

Birthday thread, making the birthday card, Senpai visits, ABT visits, and the 25th anniversary threads. Also the Joypolis stream thread
>Think we'll make it to 600
Why not?

November of last year

Wanted advice on how to best play the Sonic games I hadn't played already, so I look in Veeky Forums for a Sonic general.

It's fun.

Still pretty new, but the storytimes for Eggman's Dozen were great.

Damn sure. We're going to get an injection of fast once the party happens and an announcement is made.

>>When did you start coming to the general?
somewhere between thread 1 and 20 i think
>>How did you find the general?
in a /v/ thread
>>Do you enjoy the general?
yes, this is literally the only reason i still come to Veeky Forums
>>Do you have any fond memories here?
nothing that really stands out, i just like coming here. the highlights are storytimes, drawfags/writefags making stuff and senpai & co showing up
>>You think we'll make it to #600?
yes

Do you think Senpai will show up today to answer questions or anything?

Nah, let this thread last awhile and not rush it.

>When did you start coming to the general?
Almost a year ago
>How did you find the general?
I was searching up any generals of thing I liked after being bored of /ssbg/
>Do you enjoy the general?
Hell yeah, considering it's Sonic this general isn't as autistic as I thought
>Do you have any fond memories here?
Seeing my art being used as pic related
>You think we'll make it to #600?
Sure

If Sonic's 25th Anniversary can last until next year, the #500 celebration can go for a thread or two.

Sonic 3 & Knuckles
Sonic Generations
Sonic Advance 3 ( I need to replay the others)
Sonic Unleashed
Lava Reef.
Rooftop Run (both unleashed and Generations)
Amy Rose
Sonic Boom (unless the OVA counts)
Mega Drive

Sonic CD
Unleashed
Sonic Rush
Unleashed
Chemical Plant
City Escape

>>When did you start coming to the general?
Right after the Ride ended.

>>How did you find the general?
Was there when it was created.

>>Do you enjoy the general?
It has it's moments, mostly during storytimes and official and unofficial content creators showing up.

>>Do you have any fond memories here?
Making pic related, Ian's bday card, and Bump/Sage

>>You think we'll make it to #600?
No doubt.

160-200 was when I was most interested in the comics, so Ian's pre-reboot gets my vote.

>Right after the Ride ended.
This place wasn't around right after it ended, though.

...

Very cool

What's your biggest hope for the Anniversary party?

What do you want the unannounced game to be?

I just remember that it was made after it ended.

>What do you want the unannounced game to be?
Real

Alright so what do we plan on doing for Sage and bumps birthday?

Personally I'm all for autosaging for Sage's birthday.

Don't do this to me user. I will RUIN this thread with Sonamy faggotry.

>tfw thread 499 was super cancerous
>dominated by discussion about the dark ages, mina mongoose, and Penders
>traveled at the speed of light, lasting only 7 hours
But so far this thread has been pretty good. Lots of OC art. Good discussion. A general nice vibe.

Huh... looks like we filtered the cancer out of our system early.

>What do you want the unannounced game to be?
Something that isn't a sequel.

>2d
Been a while since I played one but something in me wants to say Rush Adventure.

>3d
Sonic Adventure 2 has the most replay value for me. Honorable mentions go to Colors, Generations and Lost World for being solid platformers, and 06 for just being fun to mess around in.

>handheld
RIP Sonic Runners :c

>soundtrack
Can't decide, love S3K, CD, Adventure 1/2, Storybook series, modern era, and a few others from games here and there.

>2d level
Tidal Tempest. Love the music (JP ver.) and atmosphere.

>3d
Generations Crisis City, I had my place on the PS3 leader-boards on that level for a bit.

>favorite character
Blaze in the games, Sally in expanded material.

>favorite cartoon
SatAM and Boom, but others have their moments.

>favorite comic
Entirety of Flynn's run is pretty great, though I'm always saddened that the original plans pre-reboot never went through, but on the other hand, Champions and Spark of Life (latter not written by Flynn I know) are my favorite arcs.

Have a Bump I posted before. Might do another for this thread specifically.

Sonic 4 mainly as I shared some rage with a friend in the co-op special stages.

Generations, if for no other reason than it was built properly.
>adventure was clunky, didn't play it back at release so no nostalgia for it
>heroes just about held it together but still had issues
>shadow had the worst aiming mechanics I'd ever seen
>unleashed caused my 360 to have a meltdown

Generations OST

Anything that is not a casino level.

Fuck me not any casino levels.

Omega. May he have a long career as an antisunnovabitch machine in SU, even if Team Dark has gone dark in the vidya.

The OVA.

We're in a good place now. No drama and no restrictive ties.

I had a topic, if I may.

So, today's Universe issue actually gave a reasonable idea for what role G.U.N could play in the games. It was shown that they basically keep shit in order while the Freedom Fighters work to deal with Eggman's machinations. One wonders then why they can't be shown doing this in the games. Yes, it's ultimately a trivial background detail, but background details are the kind of shit nerds live for, and that kind of worldbuilding is almost always appreciated.

Also, Rouge was fantastic in this issue. Lips.

When was the last time GUN was even in the games proper?
'06?

06 was the last time a lot of things were in the games proper

Don't forget the Rivals games.

(won't be sticking around) Happy 500. I'll just put this down right here.

Thanks everyone.

06 was really the end of an era. Sega will probably never revisit the concepts introduced in the Adventure era ever again because of 06.

Love it.
I'll add it to the collage

ABT, truly you are a god among artfags.

I love you, you glorious motherfucker.

Yeah, I don't get it either

they've always had teeth, right?

FYI, you rock. Great work on #87

...

thanks abt you are the best is it to much to ask to draw perci trying to /crushing/flirting with tails?

Teeth are cute! CUTE!
But seriously, thanks for dropping by abt

Because G.U.N. was made with the human world in mind to instigate Shadow's backstory and character arc. Once Shadow and 06 wrapped it up with Shadow putting his past behind him and joining G.U.N., along with Sega sticking to Sonic's world from now on, there really is no need for G.U.N. other than to give Shadow, Rouge, and maybe Omega, an excuse to travel around a human, more realistic world.

>tfw you realize that Shadow becoming a secret agent was the least retarded part of Sonic '06


This is probably why so many people latch on to the comics. All those characters and elements that Sonic Team introduced and let go to waste, the comics are actually doing stuff with them in recent years. I'm especially interested to know where this bad blood between G.U.N. and the Kingdom of Acorn is going.

Happy 500th back at ya, bro! Always good to see you stop by.

What if the new game turns out to be a reboot?
>Select all images with eggs.
Phage pls

Out of all the fucking art we got...

Cream so cute.

>I'm especially interested to know where this bad blood between G.U.N. and the Kingdom of Acorn is going.
Considering Snively is part of G.U.N. while working on his secret master plan on the side, probably something involving that.

Which means we'll probably get a Sonic vs. Shadow knock-down brawl in a few years once Ian gets around to it.

You draw a cute Rouge. Seriously, she was adorable in this issue.

it's funny.

>isn't it?

>along with Sega sticking to Sonic's world from now on
What? The last 3 main games have taken place in an amusement park in space, a white void of nothingness, and a floating continent high above the planet. We haven't played a main game in Sonic's world since Unleashed.

Eh, who cares? Everything will be on a collage anyway.

This.

>yfw the comics finally stopped sucking Sonally dick and boarded the superior ship

> all those awesome pics

You laugh, you lose.
