>A mobile game called Sonic Forces: Speed Battle debuted on iOS/Android in The Philippines
So is Runners Adventure not going to release everywhere else or what?

What would you do to increase flow and challenge in a Sonic game?

...

I still want Heavy Magician to vore me

That shit is old. Glad he took it out.

ALL HAIL THE EGGMAN EMPIRE

Eh, mania has been out for a while now and we all know about forces. The OP needed trimming anyway.

Nice op you got there.

>New Sonic Forces trailer
>Old
Are you okay?

desu it looks better now.
>mania launch trailer
Yeah, that's outdated anyway.

(A post from a previous thread to continue the conversation.)

>What does the Japanese fandom feel about the forgotten like Fang, Mighty, Ray, Bean, Bark, Tiara, and Honey?
>I actually don't know! That's interesting, I can research it for you and report back later. I'd like to know myself.

I'd really like to know what the Japanese fans think of these forgotten furries.

Speaking of which, you wanna know why I want these forgotten characters to return to the modern games so badly? It's because I wanna see gmod/sfm youtubers get more "toys" to play with.

Cute picture.

Link to the sonic storytime comic? I need it for something

>WE ARE ADULTS SEGA, OKAAAY?

I'll make a mental note to check people's reactions to the boss fight in Mania later while I'm researching this. I'd like to know what Japan thinks.

For you.

>It's because I wanna see gmod/sfm youtubers get more "toys" to play with.
>All the terrible sfm porn

I can't wait to play the Blaze minigame where she goes around looking for her missing raccoon.
Pls

>Thinks Chemical Plant Zone is on the same island as Green Hill zone

What exactly is this referencing?

youtube.com/watch?v=RT1P4cNqM_Y&spfreload=10

There are only 50 days left until Sonic Forces is out. Yes that's correct, there are only fifty (as in the atomic number of tin) days left to go until Sonic Forces is released in the US.

"S-Sonic...please, say something...please. I just want to hear y-your voice again..."

"...my nama Jeff."

Thanks, user.

I kekd

Why the fuck are people inclined to include Tiara in these? At least Honey had a model

Tiara is a glorified fan character at this point

Thank you

With all the hints Nakamura and the Sonic Twitter are throwing out, I'm half expecting Shadow to be playable at this point.

Bump and Sage suck, stop wasting your art talent on them

Nice cat.

...

Thank you.

I agree desu

It could be any chemical plant.

cream's dad

He posted it once, you might just need to go back a few threads in the archive to find it. It's a deviant art link so just ctrl+f it

why is & knuckles mode so pointless and shitty?

nah they good

maybe you just have shit taste?

I'm not sure. Maybe it's because Tiara is always included in fan made group shots like these...

Memes

>56 editions left to go
>Less than 2 months to go till Forces
>shitposting has been wild ever since Mania released

You may as well just ramp the posting faster so we can reach #1100 by Forces

So autism? She wasn't ever even in a game

>AI is somehow worse than tails, gets caught on the level and stuck jumping offscreen all the time
>being able to make him glide is less than useful because unlike tails you can't actually control him, he just kinda glides forward a foot and then tries to move back to you (so you can't say, throw him at a boss from a safe distance)
>can't use him to go into knuckles exclusive areas
>instead of tails in the car at the end it's just another knuckles for no reason

I feel like at least some of these things could be done even with an obviously throwaway feature

Can we make Tiara /ourgal/?

Huh, didn't notice that text bubble the first time this footage came out. Honestly, that mistake could be more Sega's fault for not remembering that Chemical Plant is on West Side Island. Plus Chemical Plant is the most iconic second level in Sonic, so there's that.

how did /u/ draw tin?

Ooh that's a new one. Thanks champ.

Neither was Honey, initially, but see how much love she gets.

>Rat likes what he sees.png

Guess so.

Honestly, I can live without Tiara seeing the light of day. Though it would be nice if she made an official appearance, I can understand if she doesn't and won't get any hopes up.

...

No problem. I have others in my folder that I plan on translating as requested by some anons.

>he didn't beat the final boss

...

tails is so fucking cute

Her data was at least in the game and was put into the remake at least. Tiara didn't even get a game

Maybe IDW will do something with her as a background character

Love this.

You're doing God's work. Thanks.

So I guess that means that certain fans hope that if they push hard enough, Tiara would get the same kind of treatment that Honey did for the HD re-release of Sonic the Fighters.

But I remember that Flynn tried to get her (along with her dad Gazebo) on board for the comics, but was flat out rejected by some corporate higher-ups. So I'm not sure what the legal situation for Tiara is.

agreed, but that doesn't mean legal unions beyond that should be illegal.

Archie wasn't allowed to use Tiara, IDW probably can't either.

Yeah I think I can get into this.

>but was flat out rejected by some corporate higher-ups. So I'm not sure what the legal situation for Tiara is.
I wonder what the fuck would prevent her from getting in. She really is literal who tier.

>NO TURNING BACK WE ARE BORN TO DREAM

Easily my favorite ship.

This guy walks up to your girlfriend in Green Hill Zone and smacks her ass. What are you doing?

...

>Maybe IDW will do something with her as a background character

I certainly hope they try to do so. Maybe then there would be more reason to be inclined to lump her in with the rest of the forgotten characters if there was more, well, character to her.

Post more of that guy's art. His art style is elder god tier.

I'm not a fan of Tiara but I don't get what's the big deal about liking unused/obscure characters. All in all, it's just a character

iktf, hopefully some interaction in Forces will spur some art and comics.

Shronic's Thanksgiving is my favorite too

Thanks, I was actually going to start looking for it too.

Why is a ghost smacking my girlfriend's ass?

there may be copyright problems since sonic xtreme was never officially released. the creator might still own her and could ask for a lot more if she were added to the comics.

...

>I wonder what the fuck would prevent her from getting in.
Red Tape involving STI, I imagine. Legal ramifications for work environment and the such. The best legal option would be for them to never touch it.

So basically a legal gray area that means the fans have (almost) complete control over the character except getting anything X-treme in official Sonic works.

People get attached to a design (sometimes the personality)

Characters like Fang, Honey, Bean or Bark are cool characters to get attached to. Mighty is alright but just a Sonic recolor. Ray is pointless and Tiara was never a character to begin with

>I wonder what the fuck would prevent her from getting in. She really is literal who tier.

Remember that rumor where it was claimed that Sega couldn't use Mighty, Ray or the Hooligans because the creator(s) of those characters left with the copyrights?* Well the only way I can think of is that maybe that's the case with whoever created Tiara in the first place.

*(Which was debunked because if that were true, then Sega couldn't legally give them those missing poster/wanted poster cameos in the first place.)

...

...

God I want that edgelord to nibble on my neck all night.

Truly, a classic worth preserving.

>Honey
Nobody gave a shit about her until Archie wrote her in.

>Mighty is alright but just a Sonic recolor
That's not true. Mighty was (and still is) one of the most popular obscure characters for a reason.

>Ray is pointless
Your opinion and I don't care about him myself.

>Tiara was never a character to begin with
She was a concept that never got finalized.

So basically this boils down to
>REEEE STOP LIKING WHAT I DON'T LIKE!

...

was about to post the same thing but then pic related happened. is it some sort of glitch?

It was Francisco Scaramanga who had the third nipple, not James Bond.

>Nobody gave a shit about her until Archie wrote her in.
You've got some valid statements but I think the whole reason readers were excited about her getting in was precisely because there were people who gave a shit about her. Granted, they care a lot more now that she has an actual personality and role, but it wasn't a void of indifference before.

So, they don't own Tiara because the game wasn't officially a Sega product? I didn't know, I thought the character was copyrighted to Sega.

It is owned by them, but I'm theorizing that because of the STI situation, they can do nothing with her (Which happens a lot in various companies).

I promise! My next post is gonna be the pantsu one. I'm out!
