How long till million followers?
Zachary Phillips
Sonic Generations was a fucking mistake. Classicucks are literally killing this franchise.
David Wood
The twitter? It's only half way there.
Brody Bell
Sticks is cute.
Christian Edwards

James Wilson
Thanks user
Michael Hall
cute bat
Julian Jackson
Bring classic back for 2017 was a huge mistake, his presence basically screams "HEY REMEMBER WHEN WE DIDN'T SUCK GUYS'
Brody Nelson
Anyone else never realize how little clothing Blaze wore in her early designs?
Robert Rivera
>Classicucks are literally killing this franchise If anything that was most Modern Sonic games >Heroes >Shadow >06
Hudson Jones
Well honestly I think playing the nostalgia card is bad in general. Look at street fighter. the past few games have been basically is SF2 wank
John Clark
Based. Thanks user.
Jack Smith
>games from over a decade ago
Aaron Sanders
Can anyone post the survey results?
Brayden Stewart
Adam draws a really nice Rouge
Austin Morgan
Well the problem is that sega is nostalgia pandering at this point instead of creating something original they're basically rehashing the same stuff and the classicfags are eating that shit up
Jaxon Reed
These games had a huge impact on Sonic despite how old.
Owen Rivera
Indeed he does.
Anthony Young
which one the one that got rigged
Lincoln Murphy
>classicfags are eating that shit up >Sonic 4 >Lost World >Eating those games up
Nathan Barnes
He means the /sthg/ survey.
Jeremiah Williams
that is a cute bat
Jordan Nguyen
Well they're still nostalgia pandering to this day with mania and the unnecessary inclusion of classic sonic in 2017
Jeremiah Bell
I know Heroes was bad, but what did it do to have a huge impact on Sonic?
Grayson Adams
...
Ian Young
I'm amazed at how fast it keeps gaining followers. I would have thought the fad would die down and new followers would be slower to get gained, but no.
Nicholas Sanchez
I posted this opinion a few weeks ago, but might as well do it again.
"Pandering", as it gets thrown around on places like Veeky Forums, isn't really a bad thing. People act like "making a product people like" is pandering, and if that's your definition of pandering then I'm sure you'll be sad to hear that the entire job of a business is pandering.
Jordan Parker
Bringing back Shadow, I guess.
Robert Torres
>63% of the thread is basically autistic Jesus Christ.
Alexander Edwards
>Veeky Forums >sonic related general >only 63% I'd say we're doing pretty good. One of the anons here is even married and has a kid. He also draws cute shit I think.
Owen King
>unnecessary inclusion of classic sonic in I'm not going to lie it does feel redundant with Mania. But as long as it's a good game isn't that what matters? It's guaranteed money for them. Making people hate Sonic's friends even more and bringing Shadow back so he can appear in Shadow the Hedgehog.
Landon Gray
>California is the biggest population
Why don't we ever hang out, you huge faggots?
Brayden Campbell
>Big fat bat tats
these guys know what's up
Camden Bennett
I just feel that bringing him back for 2017 just loses the feeling of generations but then again the same could be argued for shadow in sa2 and bringing him back in heroes
Tyler Cruz
I'm reserving my judgments on Classic in 2017, and really any judgment on 2017, until we actually get more info. Because right now, knowing Sonic Team, anything's possible.
Jaxson Hall
Looks like youweren't fast enough.
Jordan Ortiz
I haven't been on here since PitS2 and Shattered2 got storytimed. Did I miss any new storytimes?
William Mitchell
That's true hell they could even bring back more playable characters if they wanted to
Wyatt Stewart
no
two or so pages of Shattered 3 & Knuckles got leaked, but that's it
Michael White
>Why dont we hang out? Let's see: Transportation Costs, Schedule Alignment, Location. If you can get around those I'm sure you'll have fun. At least your state has more than two other people coming here
Evan Brown
Well the nostalgia pandering is resulting in good things nowadays. Better that than something original that's shit
Jaxon Anderson
>mfw the only Minnesotan
Lincoln Richardson
thoughts?
Lincoln Reyes
>Shadow >Rouge Just remove those and he's correct. Really, remove anyone that was created after 3&K
Thomas Bennett
/v/ being autistic again?
Isaiah Brooks
That image reminds me of the Japanese fans that post really close up images of Sonic characters' genitals from official images on their twitters.
Alexander Wilson
Every Sonic character that has ever been is canon. This includes characters exclusive to particular continuities/spin-offs (comics, Boom, etc.) as far as said continuities are concerned.
Everyone, of course, except user's waifu.
Tyler Turner
>le edgy contrarian opinion Every character in Sonic has a part to play. Have them show up when that part is needed.
Hunter Reed
this is from /v/, yes
Isaac Johnson
Whoever designed the outfit Rouge wears in riders is my hero
William Taylor
I live in Iowa, neighbor.
Also, Sonic characters just look cute with the Peanuts art style.
Isaac Cooper
I wasn't here for the surveys, but apparently I'm the only Mississippian.
Wyatt Turner
There you go user.
Colton Bell
What's a dealbreaker for you in project 2017 /sthg/ ?
David Edwards
Anyone besides Sonic being playable and a serious "epic" story
Chase Thomas
>mfw when there's no canadians on sthg
Ryan Green
If it's not on PC Because nigga I don't feel like buying another console
Brayden Roberts
Just don't make us play that part.
Tyler Long
It has to have at least Sonic the hedgehog as a playable character or I'm not buying it.
Robert Smith
In fact don't make us see any part that isn't Sonic/Tails/Eggman/Orbot/Cubot
Colton Perry
So you want that or you don't
Isaiah Butler
Seems pretty upset.
David Miller
Quebecfag here
Dominic Howard
/cgl/ arranges meet ups at cons and over half usually don't show up. Be they too busy or too socially inept to pull through. I tried to date one of the anons I met and they never talk, literally too busy posting to pay attention to the outside world.
Juan Perez
Thank ukekawa then
Josiah Young
D-Did you go to anime expo?
Zachary Russell
I have no idea. There are several things that would make me really depressed, but I don't think I could turn my back on it completely given how long it's been since Gens.
P&G writing it would be a huge downer. Boom Sonic being in it, too. If it turned into a shitshow like Boom was I'd probably not want anything to do with it.
Jaxson Lopez
>I tried to date one of the anons I met and they never talk, literally too busy posting to pay attention to the outside world. >Actually dating a Veeky Forums goer Why would you do this?
John Davis
How does this make you feel, user?
David Cooper
I don't. Not at all. We don't need multiple playable characters in a 3D game or an 06 tier "serious" story
Jose Perry
Wanted to, but I live in the midwest. If anyone went to Acen, Midwest or Colossal, they likely met or saw me.
Kevin Robinson
It doesn't have boost gameplay
Charles Gomez
T-they were really hot.
Kayden Young
And why would you automatically assume that it would be bad? They got enough complaints about it to stop even putting those characters in. Having good gameplay along with those characters would be a completely different scenario than SA1 or SA2.
Jace Long
Was confirmed, my dude.
PS4/ONE/NX too
Xavier Thomas
Albertafag here
Jose Butler
Indifferent because it's just fan art of a game from 10 years ago when Sega didn't know betterBecause the last times we got multiple playable characters in a 3D game we got 06 and Rise of Lyric
Matthew Edwards
Hey /sthg/ I've been away for 2 weeks, I'm sure you all missed me. Speaking of, what have I missed?
Nathaniel Green
I've been asking myself why I still have this saved
pls mods no ban
Cooper Diaz
>i'm falling for your bait but I'll try really hard to act like I'm not by "intentionally" taking it!
Anyway there's no "proper canon". If a character is important, they'll show up. That's how that shit works. The main cast is usually limited to Sonic, Tails, Knuckles and Amy. Characters like Shadow, Blaze, Jet, etc appear as needed. Simple shit.
Ayden Turner
Nothing. There is absolutely nothing going on until we get more game info.
Gavin Myers
Well then feel disappointed
Alexander Smith
Bump missed you, user.
Cooper King
wait does this mean blaze still has paws? are these official concept designs?
Eli Adams
>Iowa
Jaxon Phillips
Multiple playable characters that have very different playstyles.
Isaac Butler
Oh yeah, those games were totally as bad as they were because of having multiple characters and totally not other reasons. Not much. A sprinkle of new art, I think an issue was storytimes, and an attention whore decided to set up shop here and people are too retarded to ignore it so it'll go away. That's about it. Some anons also started working on an idea for a sanic fighter. One of them wants to make one from the ground up, possibly based off Fighters and the other is looking to mod 3rd Strike or something.
Josiah Lopez
Anyone going to PAX next week to get some time down with Mania?
Carter Foster
Nah. We're not getting multiple playable characters outside of the 2 Sonic's since it's basically Gens 2. Hopefully we don't get an Unleashed/06 type story and get a successor to Gens
Elijah Gray
console only/motion controls.
It's what killed Riders.
Michael Martinez
>are these official concept designs? No. These are.
