/sthg/ #997 - A Successful Plumber Says To Buy Sonic Forces Edition
Looking things up, it'd seem ol' Penders is flipping a bitch about how the only thing a writer should care about is royalties and that IDW and Sega "stifle that".
Fucker just wants reprints of his Archie shit to make more money and won't get any of that now.
Juan Sanchez
I really hope Forces is longer than Gens because i'm not fucking paying 40$ for 30 minutes of gameplay.

Do you even know how Sonic games work? They're arcade platformers. You're suppose to play the stages multiple times to get a better score/time. Sonic games have never been particularly long played straight through.

They said that on a single playthrough, it's about as long as Gens or Colors. But there's a ton of stuff that'll keep you going back & playing through it.

Low effort trash.

SO LONG GAY SILVER

>*But there's a ton of boring padding stages and half-assed DLC that'll just barely artificially extend the life of the game by like maybe an hour or two
FTFY

Classic Sonic was a mistake. Imagine if there was a classic Mario, it doesn't exist because classic Mario is regular fucking Mario. Having two different versions of yourself is stupid.
Dominic Watson
Shadow is the best daddy in the series.
Colton Taylor
Seems accurate
Isaiah Turner
FUCKING THIS
Cameron Bell
I wish I could see more Sonic cosplays.
Jaxon Ramirez
Why do you even play Sonic games? Do you even play Sonic games?
Zachary Anderson
Those poor goombas
Jaxon Carter
It has to happen cause this shit fanbase bitch and moans about 2d and 3d

Adam James
Well, what fucking answer did you want, user?
To be fair, some fans were acting like Classic & Modern Sonic were two different characters before Generations.
Michael Moore
>tfw missions from the Adventure games come back
Wyatt Fisher
Silver is all about flat chest and that ass
Adam Nguyen
>Do you even play Sonic games? No, user, I just stare at a television screen imaging a blue hedgehog running around.
Hunter Perez
>To be fair Stopped reading right there. Find a better sentence starter.
Sebastian Sanders
Would Penders have the balls to try to autograph the IDW Sonic comics and try to sell them at comic-con?
Kevin Jackson
Wait, Penders is flipping out again? Gotta link?
Julian Evans
to be frank Carl, I don't like your atitude
Daniel Scott
Thank you. Exactly how I’ve felt about the entire thing.
Leo Johnson
ok
Before Generations, some fans were acting like Classic & Modern Sonic were two different characters.
Some fans were acting like Classic & Modern Sonic were two different characters.
Few years back, some fans were acting like Classic & Modern Sonic were two different characters.
Because he never wrote those issues or have his material?

They should come back. It's an incredibly simple way of padding your game out without forcing it on the player. Same with the ranking system from SA2. Style points would work great with the boost gameplay.
Benjamin Sullivan
>P-please i wont write too many echidnas dis time >why wont IDW get me! my comic is good :(((
Lucas Walker
Yes. I know. It was sarcasm. I was implying he totally would.
Nathan Thompson
>mfw forces gets better reviews than mania
Luke Cook
Bubsy's gonna do better than both of them, why even fight about it user?
Nolan Gomez

Luke Walker
I dunno, aren't most of them still employed in some way? ABT's got work with the mini and some shit at Archie, Yardley's got Archie work, Herms has Archie AND IDW work, Aleah is likely a shoe in for IDW, Hesse literally has to never worry about his next paycheck ever again. Only one that seems salty is Jen and the bitch is the human equivalent of the dead sea. And this is just going off what we do know. For all we know, people like Yardley and ABT could go to IDW (Yardley seems likely given he's almost as iconic as Ian is in terms of the comic) . Then again Penders lives in his own world where the only comic that exists is Sonic
Angel Peterson
Yes, this post makes me want to punch you less than the previous one.
Justin Rodriguez
Then you should know how Sonic games work and realize that playtime is based on replaying levels to get a better time, smartass
Juan Carter
Fact: Pushing Classic sonic into the boost games is a mistake that only holds back the polishing and improvement of the boostt formula
Fact: Boost sonic has yet to come close in terms of quality to any of tyhe genesis games, including sonic 1
Fact: the best possible scenario is to keep the two separate, allow boost to improve, and allow classic to just give us more goodness.
Parker Lewis
If Archie lost the rights to Sonic, doesn't this mean they can't do reprints anymore, effectively scuttling any hopes of royalties from pre-reboot content that Penders laid claim to? With the switch to IDW and the win against the other writer in court it really does seem like an attempt to scuttle all that archaic and 90's bullshit with looser and terribly-kept contracts so they can have a clean slate.
And not deal with Penders anymore.
Brody Lee
Sure, but who mentioned replaying stages, user? We're talking about half-assed DLC and padding via 'daily missions'. Pay attention.
John Price
Well to be fair that wasn't me, user.
I'd put Generations over Sonic 1 personally. But I agree on the other two.
Hudson Fisher
Fact: Sonic Forces would be better if it was Knuckles Forces
Nicholas Russell
>muh open world sanic gayme directly comparing a Mario to a Sonic game is a waste of time.
David Jackson
Almost every classic game is teh same with maybe 1 or 2 new items in it that """change""" the game.
Brandon Cooper
Would you bully him?
Alexander Gutierrez
Come on, user! You should've let me impersonate you.
Isaiah Stewart
Most of them are either still involved or have moved on to different/better things. It's only Penders realising he ain't shit and has nothing else.
Christian Cook
>Pay attention. Maybe you should "pay attention."
This is the original post The response about DLC is in direct response to its length In fact, you're even more retarded since the post about DLC mentions "padding" which can only refer to length
Chase Long
I want this to happen not out of spite but just so Sonic can have two great anniversary games this year.
Brayden Carter
...
Robert Butler
I meant No because Sonic with glasses/Nikki is cute
Brandon Ward
>Stealing another anons identity Have you no shame?
Easton Gray
It actually will. Just as it's hilarious and original to to shit on Sonic, it is hilarious and original to ironically love Bubsy.
Jose Foster
Sonic is absolutely for bullying, so yes.
Sebastian Edwards
user, calm down, you messed up, we all make mistakes. Take a breather.
Chase Perez
>There are a punch of people (critics especially) who don't want any of Sonic's "annoying" friends to be playable
I say these types should be ignored and never be given the time of day until they learn to shut their mouths. Because this kind of attitude doesn't do those under utilized characters any favors.
Justin Ross
Exactly. And he's trying to project it onto everyone else while putting on a "think of the creators" facade when the first thing he did when the comic got canned was shill his own shit. The first thing Ian did? Link the patreons of every single one of his co-workers and urge followers to send them support.
You could make a "Goofus and Gallant" type thing with Penders and Ian at this point it's fucking comical
Aaron Hughes
We call those fans "contrarians".
Juan Clark
Pre-reboot will likely never be reprinted again. Post-reboot has a decent chance.
Joseph Hernandez
...
Xavier Reed
I'm a contrarian, and I take offense to that. The "classic" and "modern" descriptors need to shrivel up and die.
Colton Brown
Fuck Monika
Mason Myers
user, please.

Gabriel Baker
I'm making a bird because at least they have a mouth that's shared with actual characters of the same species, and you all should take a stand with me and tell Sonic Team that we shall not stand ugly mouths on our Sonic characters
Dominic Anderson
>mfw in 20 years when the robot uprising starts and sonic games are banned for being hate speech
Easton Murphy
we should really be taking a stand against monkey bears
There are 23 days until Sonic Forces is out. Yes that's right, there are just twenty-three (as in the number you get when you divide the total number of stones (rounded) in the Great Pyramid of Khufu at Giza by 1000,000 (there are 2.3 million stones in said pyramid)) days left until Sonic Forces is released in the US.
>tan eyelids Motherfucker who drew this didn't do their research
Blake Bell
Modern had tan eyelids at first.
John Gomez
I'm making a hedgehog because hedgehogs are cuties.
Asher Perry
>in another dimension people question if Mario was ever good while Sonic Adventure is considered a masterpiece that set the standard for 3d platformers
Christian Harris
The tan eyelids were always there. It only changed starting with Sonic Heroes.
Blake Nguyen
Sonic had tan eyelids until Sonic X/Sonic Heroes was released.
Anthony Cruz
Mario didnt even set the standard for 3d platformers in this dimension
