Heroes is better than the Adventure games.

So what drawfags do we have kicking about /sthg/?

And who is best?

>And who is best?
We do not ask nor shall answer such question. it will just make the few who remain give up.

MOMMY ROUGE I WAN MILKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS

Image limit.

There's A LOT of wrong with that image. so much, we need /ic/user to criticise it. At least it's not Ravnic.

Yes, and?
Still one hundred posts 'till the bump limit.
You don't make a new thread before then.

...

Stop making new threads faggots, is the third in a day

I agree but even Classicfags will put Adventure on a pedestal just because it "tried" to replicate the momentum based gameplay the best out of the 3D games even though that attempt could hardly be called good.

Heroes might not be as momentum based (though it still has it despite what uninformed haters might say) but I really appreciate how complex it is, how it tried to move the 3D gameplay forward, and how it's just one consistent playstyle.

>calls anyone else newfag
This is something we've done since year 1. Take your triggered ass elsewhere if you have a problem.

Dumb Boomposter.

What's your favorite ship, sthg? mine is pic related

Personally, I feel like SA2 was better.

Rouge and my dick

He went to sleep already but you can clearly see what's wrong with it.

Why Iizuka hates Super Knuckles?

Buddy and me.

Because only Saiyans can go Super Saiyan.

>Heroestoddlers
Great way to start a thread, Sonicucks.

Boom Sonic and Amy.

Not a male hedgehog

I'm a Classicfag actually, first game was Sonic 2. Heroes is just my favorite 3D game.

omega x destruction is my other fave ship

Real best game coming through.

PLAY TIME IS OVAH

>or conquer it
Nah, you'll get left with a cliffhanger and not actually do anything bad because of the true end.

Sonic Adventure 3 when?

But SA2 is shit ProJared said so.

>inb4 06 is SA3
Honestly? As much as I'd love a return to the Adventure formula, I don't trust current Sonic team to do it justice. They can't do anything without their precious boostpads, so actually being able to explore a 3D space freely is way beyond their current capabilities.

>inb4 Sonic 06
Iizuka has stated that Sonic Team are open to doing Sonic Adventure 3 sometime in the future. Then again, he's also been open to doing a Nights 3, and Sega hasn't greenly that either

They need the Taxman and Stealth of the Adventure games. Who are they, though?

Sonic Adventure 2 already brought it more in line with the normal modern Sonic formula. I don't think they're ever going to do another Sonic Adventure 1

GHP and Lange? Although, Lange is too much of a elitist asshole and GHP is too concerned with making others happy instead of doing what he thinks is right, so I dunno.

I always like Sonic The Comic's vibe and atmosphere better than Archie Sonic. I guess it was more cynical and out there?

I heard nights 2 sold like shit. maybe that's why?

post your art

Lane already has a partner, doesn't he?

Murasaki, yeah. She also does good work. If it were me I'd put GHP as project lead, Lange as art director, bring Tee Lopes back on as music director and then bring on as many programmers as possible both from the Mania team as well as Damizean and the other core 3D fangame people.

Nice Lange projection user.

I've talked to the dude, he can be chill.

He just likes to argue until an agreement is made, and really likes classic era upon any other sonic continuity. You can see him talk about this on the Utopia V threads.

Nigel Kitching's original plans for Amy had her as a humorous character and an irritant for Sonic, influenced by 1930s/40s "Hollywood screwball comedies" like It's a Wonderful World, while still being a capable fighter. He never made it clear whether Amy really fancied Sonic or whether she was teasing him for the reaction, making him flustered and embarrassed. ("But what Amy was not and never was some weak soppy character who swooned over Sonic like a silly little girl. Well, she did but we were never quite sure if she just doing it for a laugh.") Although she was captured frequently in early strips, she never sobbed or begged for mercy, being as brave as any of the others, and she had the most lethal weapon of all the Freedom Fighters (a crossbow).


>tfw no Amy like this in the games

FATTIE
CAT
TATTIES

Not that guy, but wtf does "Lange projection" mean? It's just another person's interpretation of another person's behavior.

>He just likes to argue until an agreement is made

Ah, so he is an elitist asshole. At least some kind of insufferable one.

>She
When do girls know how to make vidya, especially Sonic vidya?

I'm watching Sonic X in its original language with subs and it's generally better than I ever thought it could be.

He's not wrong, the dude's a cunt and acts like he's right no matter what.

He can be chill as long as you agree with him, but if you say anything at all that even slightly goes against his very rigid ideals of what Sonic should be then he will chew you up and spit you out. Utopia is a great project, but I can't see Lange working well at all with an actual SEGA-funded team. They would want Modern green-eyed Sonic, a story, voice acting, the works. I feel that Lange would up and walk out before willingly touching Modern Sonic.

I just realized that they gave Metal Sonic 6 fingers here.

Could be cool. I always assumed Amy was capable in the games anyway, a few specific situations being the exception of course.

I guess it'd be more fun if she was main character tier like her boom incarnation though.

Not to mention that the fanbase would also get furious if a Mania-like game for 3D Sonic also ended up using Classic Sonic. They already feel threatened by Classic Sonic as it is.

>He can be chill as long as you agree with him
That sounds like the average mentality of every poster on this site.

I really like the idea of Amy loving on Sonic just to get on his nerves. But that ain't really a Japanese trope is it?

...

Can you blame them, though? Sega just thinks they can trot out Classic Sonic without putting any work into respecting who Classic Sonic is. Now that Mania's made Generations look like shit their lazy port over from that game they did for Forces will look even worse.

Nah son. I have a strong preference for the classic games but I will not tolerate someone in charge completely disregarding modern sonic because of some intense neurosis they're suffering over a blue hedgehog in their brains. It's not about being "threatened".

Someone like Taxman is good. Someone like whatever that guy is elitist, neurotic, and frankly unnecessary.

It would be projecting if him being stubborn was false, if Lange was mutual, and everyone just labeled him as a jerk on the mention of his name. But he's a very fiesty person that likes to fight until he gets his way half of the time.

Right after Half Life 3

Dear lord, I gave a look on his twitter page. Unsurprisingly he seems to get a lot of RTs/likes. Why do people seem the most commanded by online presences with aggressive and standoffish behaviors?

>Why do people seem the most commanded by online presences with aggressive and standoffish behaviors?
Pack mentality.

Ask Balena.

Give me a damn Crash Bandicoot crossover.

HE should be part of an official Sonic Adventure 3 project.

Woah!

...

He would complain to the devs the entire process cause of a trivial fact that it doesn't have Ryan Drummond voicing Sonic.

>Implying Ryan Drummond isn't needed for Sonic Adventure 3 to be perfect.

I wish.

It kind of is, but not a very common one. Though honestly I think that clashes with Sonic's character a bit. Maybe i'm wrong.

OTP

Well, I'd imagine they'd prefer the trope of her being a "fangirl with an optimistic and pure heart" stuff which does work in its own way but all the STC's characterizations are imo unconventional.

Also, why would you think it would clash with Sonic's character?

Just give me Perci the Bandicoot pls

why isn't he levitating the phone with his psycho powers

It's literally a case of "Pair the spares", but I'll be damned if they didn't put genuine effort into making it work

she's a COOT TOO??

Sonic's actually kind of shy on the Japanese side of things. It's not that Amy bothers the piss out of him, so much as he evades reciprocating feelings and would prefer not to get all touchy-feely about emotions and just focus on what's ahead of him at that moment. He genuinely seems to care for Amy as a close friend, but in the way he'd never actually express love for her personally.

Isn't it weird how Sonic was created with a Western-style personality but the way he expresses himself since Adventure onwards has been more Japanese?

Bah, it's just confusing.

Requesting translatebro on this

Well, even the english side of things changed up Sonic's personality to be a bit more blunt and snarky. It's just when Pontac and Graff kicked in that they pushed it to the extreme.

Sonic X also really didn't help, since it flanderized everyone excessively and even when the Japanese characterizations weren't as retarded, they still got really bad. I blame X, Heroes, and Rush a little for the reason why everyone believes Amy's a sociopathic yandere for Sonic.

anyone have the knuckles equivalent of this? I saw one posted a few threads back

>tfw too smart for puyo puyo

and here's the rouge one in case someone asks for it

I prefer the darkest Rouge

...

The color choices don't really seem that accurate all the time.

>Mfw a Cat 5 is headed straight for me in a few days.
This is because i pirate all my Sonic games isn't it?

you could pretty easily combine the two sides of this for the "Amy harasses Sonic to get a rise out of him" scenario, with Sonic getting particularly defensive about it for that exact reason and getting mad instead of addressing it maturely.

This is missing her eyes and the darker skin inside her ears.

I agree. It's not masterpiece but honestly I find it underrated. There's a lot of bullshit but there's a lot that works.

God is punishing you for fapping to gay sonic porn.

Yeah I know that, but even then I think it's not quite right for the heroic type Sonic is, it works well with Batman who's autism serious

I think you're right about that, at least things are getting better now.
