They refuse to make the games look cool

#

Its just focusing on that good ol brand marketability

azure trail
#

we only saw a old footage tho

balmy fiber
#

It was already said that expecting major differences is setting up to disappointment

open maple
#

I mean, it was in the context of it looking a bit rough so expecting it to fundamentally change it's appearance won't do

#

but that doesn't mean they won't tweak the visuals to make it look more appealing

#

for starters, the footage was not even meant to be seen by the public

#

it was clearly not ready

warm basin
#

Kinda true but let's be all fr if this was fighting game then people will be freak out

vale raft
open maple
vale raft
#

people would be panicking over the gameplay

vale raft
#

and really only the parts under kishimoto

warm basin
vale raft
#

say he's escaped from the conversation ever since he didn't say a word about sxsg

balmy fiber
#

i hope that game has a cool look and ui istg

wind sparrow
#

Gn chat

balmy fiber
#

They cant have atlus as a subcompany and not have cool UI

ancient moss
#

honestly i like frontiers UI overall so i trust shadow gens to look nice too

balmy fiber
#

Ehhhh

ancient moss
#

tho i hate the frontiers title screen with a passion

balmy fiber
#

I want to get off that 2017 clean transparent look

#

I want something raw and colorful

azure trail
#

@urban scroll you after midori said it was just toy party (there will never be a fighting game)

balmy fiber
#

Desperately

open maple
#

I personally prefer to judge the UI based on what it does and from there determine if it is good or not.

I think Frontiers is a very good UI in terms of the type of game it is, title screen aside

balmy fiber
#

Yes

#

It is

wind frigate
#

Of course they would

balmy fiber
#

which sucks yes

#

crosses arms hating on mobile games and online games

cedar ember
wind frigate
#

it looks boring but maybe it’ll be fine

balmy fiber
#

At least the roster is cool

#

Except for the lack of omega like wtf

azure trail
#

we forgettin dream team

balmy fiber
#

who

cedar ember
#

cool roster, cool game modes, customizable room, alt outfits, chao companions

azure trail
cedar ember
open maple
balmy fiber
#

Oof

wind frigate
#

sonic fans you guys are on thin ice

#

i won’t be so merciful this time

runic pulsar
#

omg im on the video bruh 😭😭😭 all for some comedy

cedar ember
#

honestly hoping that shadow gens and the next open zone game really pushes the cool shit in Sonic and then we get a sonic fighting game so there's more of a chance that it isn't a cookie cutter fighting game

runic pulsar
#

poor girl i hope she doesn’t take it the wrong way

random portal
#

Us Sonic fans are a rabid bunch

#

I legitimately didn’t think the thought of a Sonic fighter would make this many people heated

wind frigate
#

sonic fighter?

random portal
#

Like is the demand for it that big?

wind frigate
#

OHHHH LMAO

cedar ember
#

it's probably one of the most requested sonic spin offs so I'm not too surprised

wind frigate
#

rumble does sound like a fighting game name

random portal
#

I can’t wrap my head around em so I never felt much interest in em

balmy fiber
#

OH

#

YOOOOOO

cedar ember
#

here we go

omg I’m so surprised rn

balmy fiber

Ok ok sure lets go official announcement

cedar ember

#

we’re not getting shadow until June man 😭

#

Summer Gamefest LOCK IN

balmy fiber
#

SGF with Shadow Gens and Rumble

#

Not sure about Sonic 3 trailer tho

#

That doesnt seem right

cedar ember
balmy fiber
#

Everyday

#

I pray

#

To never see a sonic central again

cedar ember
#

welp

#

good luck with that

random portal
#

They ain’t putting a bum ass mobile game to show off in SGF

#

Movie 3 trailer

#

Lock in

balmy fiber
#

Movie 3 trailer is gonna be much sooner

#

Pretty sure we are set for may

vale raft
#

and it's quite obvious that sega prefers directs/state of plays/geoff shows for reveals that do matter

cedar ember
#

sonic centrals are definitely going to be a thing for a while

vale raft
#

and just posting shit on a random day

cedar ember
#

they're harmless tbh

vale raft
#

harmless yeah, but they seem pretty redundant now

random portal
#

It’s to showcase major brand deals and stuff like that

cedar ember
#

btw wanted to note, I've seen this guy around during the shadow gens leaks, the toys party leaks, and the heroes stuff

#

seems to be in on stuff most of the time

random portal
#

Like I’m expecting shit like Burning Blaze on mobile this year

#

Yeah Felipe seems to know shit

That has been deconfirmed

warm basin
#

i know

quaint mountain
#

Sonic Rumble >>>>> Toys Party tbh

cedar ember
#

yes ofc

#

toys party is so lame

quaint mountain
#

Also people asking for a Sonic fighter don't understand that

  1. it would be a lot more niche than something like this, and
  2. your average sonic fan at this point is straight up braindead and can't handle anything more complicated than left, right and jump
steep sequoia
#

Like if it's a proper fighting game and not a low budget cash grab, a sonic fighting game could easily be up there in the ranks of like guilty gear/sf/tekken just from ip alone like dbfz

glacial cliff
#

Wtf does elpis mean

#

Apparently it means hope

olive vortex
#

If given the proper care and budget

#

It could lowkey be up in the ranks of EVO

quaint mountain
#

Yeah but you can tell SEGA doesn't give much of a shit to try and foster a community that's likely to be comparatively small

warm basin
#

announce soon?

glacial cliff
#

We are in May so...

#

Yeah

#

It'll be announced within a month

azure trail
#

shadow tomorrow...

ripe cypress
#

Here it comes...

umbral gale
urban scroll
#

Man

steep sequoia
#

Where they overhype too much

dire quiver
#

It shows that we're desperate for anything cool.

balmy fiber
#

Cant say is without merit ig but shadow gens might be cool

dire quiver
#

I would like Sonic characters fighting too, but I am interested in the mobile game.

balmy fiber
#

I wish it just wasnt a mobile game

#

Like just a low budget console game

#

But i know why its just a mobile game

#

It being a mobile game removed 60% of the excitement for me personally

wise turret
#

The fact that a name like “Sonic Rumble” is wasted on a fuckin Stumble Guys-tier game is wild

#

Never change SEGA

ancient moss
#

ok the name is not THAT cool 😭

#

like its alright

dire quiver
#

I think Midori was feeling a little silly teasing it as if it was new.

balmy fiber
#

Yea like i remembered the new smb game is called Rumble and like

#

Ok yea

#

Makes sense

dire quiver
#

But now she knows how people react to that.

wise turret
#

Midori first mistake with Sonic fans (outside of the Heroes bullshit): never say some cool shit out of context before revealing said context

#

even if it’s such a SEGA ass move

steep sequoia
#

She is probably new to the sonic fanbase so I can't fault her

random portal
#

Maybe Sonic fans should calm tf down for once

#

Getting so lost in the Rumble sauce that they forgot that dropping a fighting game wouldn’t fit with SEGA’s current trajectory of Sonic’s cross media promotion shit

steep sequoia
#

^

#

I just don't think a fighting game is ever happening at all either

wise turret
#

they could just have it be made on a whim

balmy fiber
#

Ever is a very long time lets not exagerate

wise turret
#

if SEGA thinks that a Sonic fighter is possible, then we may get it

#

vise versa if it’s not

random portal
#

Yeah but it’s not happening anytime soon

steep sequoia
#

My biggest problem with expecting a sonic fighting game is their experience

random portal
#

It’s gonna be a long time before SEGA ever gets that experimental

steep sequoia
#

They have little to no experience over doing fighting games nowadays

#

It's one of the reason why i expect a sonic fighting game way after a new VF game

wise turret
steep sequoia
#

As a test in water

wise turret
#

like they already got the studio that could do a fighter

steep sequoia
#

Reminder VF has been long hiatus for a good long time. If they wanted to get back more so into Fighting game again they need to gain bit more experience to do so

#

Bringing back VF is the best attempt

#

I get that but again I am more of saying that it's just way too soon for a new sonic fighting game

wise turret
#

Or they could just get Arc Sys again for whatever fighter based off of a SEGA ip

balmy fiber
#

Oh wait

#

What about the SEGA vs Capcom rumor

steep sequoia
#

I don't think that was ever true?

balmy fiber
#

What

#

Why would Okano lie

wise turret
steep sequoia
#

Wait okano said it?

#

I need the link because I may miss it

balmy fiber
#

Yes.

wise turret
#

but that’s the most to know about

#

also, the most we’re getting in regards to a SEGA and Capcom collab is just overly expensive customization gear for Street Fighter 6

#

customization gear that, btw, act as guest character replacement most of the time

#

like the TMNT and Yor Forger are technically in SF6

#

But they’re only there in like name and cosmetics only

#

hell that doesn’t even account for what they did to Mega Man

#

So if anything, don’t even expect a playable Akira, let alone a playable Sonic, with a proper move set in SF6

#

the most we’re getting about that is just custom character gear

steep sequoia
#

That is..... completely not what I am saying

wise turret
#

I know

#

But I am just throwing out the possibility to not be completely excited for it

steep sequoia
#

fair

#

But either way..... I don't think Capcom will ever do another vs. again after with marvel

wind frigate
warm basin
#

its better name than toys party tho

warm basin
steep sequoia
#

God these people

warm basin
#

they release like 3 critically acclaimed games after frontiers and people still be like that

steep sequoia
#

It'll always be like this if you are a fan of other SEGA IPs

#

😔

#

To me? it's not worth dealing with them anymore

vale raft
#

unfortunately shows that people still don't trust sega

steep sequoia
#

one single reason alone: Sonic

vale raft
#

(not saying that corporations are our friends however)

steep sequoia
#

I mean that's not hing new anyways

#

People get too trustworthy over certain companies

#

looks at Nintendo

steep sequoia
#

I swear this comment isn't totally wrong 😭

#

Typical

#

SEGA can just bring any games that can still manage to reach over 90 or bringing many IPS in the future and yet

#

They'll behave this way repeatedly

#

Better off ignoring them

I can see a small clip of movie 3 in central but like

not the trailer lol

#

for shadow gens I believe it'll be the same as frontiers

#

but I do can see rumble being fully announced there lol

random portal
#

I don’t think anything Movie related will pop up in a Central

#

Sonic Central are nowhere near as big as a Direct

#

I can see footage of Sonadow Gens and mobile games

#

Most of it is gonna be merch and collabs

balmy fiber
#

Can we not have a central

boreal canyon
#

Nobody wants another central bro

Hold on…

Literally nobody but investors

ITS MONDAY WTF

So central huh

#

Or just one of these is soon

ripe cypress
#

They will feel my loss and dispair....

open maple
#

I'm pretty she just confirmed there is one

#

just she doesn't have information about it

#

So you don't have to go full animalistic lmao

#

I'd say it is cause the animation is done by this side of the field, and Midori sares mainly information of projects that are done in eastern territory

azure trail
#

wait

#

oh ok

#

it all makes sense now

#

he just got a central email

open maple

But also, damn that's pretty soon isn't it ?

2022 central was supposed to be this month

Wait actually

Did we ever get a 2023 central ?

I can't remember

umbral gale
#

new Sonic Central is happening?

lost snow
#

those who are registered on the official site also receive emails regularly

#

so perhaps I will receive one soon? Or it's content creators only...

#

nvm I don't think it's a Central, those have always been in June or close to June

umbral gale
#

Wasn’t the very first one back in May

#

You know when Colors Seizures was revealed

glacial cliff
#

Yes

#

And the second one was allegedly gonna be in May but was delayed till June

warm basin
#

ngl this year central has all chances to be the best one

vale raft
#

they could call it shadow central and we'd eat it up

#

if they actually show something worth watching bup

#

extra sxsg footage would be cool

warm basin
#

do you think they are gonna show some bosses like they did with frontiers

vale raft
#

would be cool but if shadow gens is a smaller game i dont think they'll be inclined to

umbral gale
#

They all have been such nothing-burgers

#

They are just glorified commercials for Sega investors just like Pokemon Direct for the Pokemon Company. I care way more if that blue rat appears at other events because that would mean not wasting my time

#

I'm happy that Sonic is big enough these days to even get its own digital event

#

But it doesn't mean much when all of them are so underwhelming

warm basin
#

i can see that but imo now they actually have content to show

umbral gale
#

They also had that last year

#

and yet, they barely did that

#

Superstars or even Dream Team wasn't even revealed at Sonic Central

warm basin
umbral gale
#

Also, it's clear that Paramount does their stuff separately from Sega. I doubt they are gonna save Sonic movie 3 info for a Sonic central

#

Wasn't even big enough for a new 2D game. So, a 3rd movie that will attract way more people is more of a slimmer chance of appearing

restive tundra
#

what’s up

wind sparrow
#

Danger

restive tundra
#

what’s this whole thing about a Sonic central and email ⁉️

quaint mountain
#

Fadel got an email on stream that got him excited

patent hazel
quaint mountain
#

He made a tweet about predicitions or whatever, Midori said "yeah all this is correct"

restive tundra
#

interesting

#

shadow gens is the thing that’ll matter most, so glad to hear news is coming sooner than expected

patent hazel
#

@restive tundra I have the clip of fadel getting the email if u want it

I’d like to see this clip

patent hazel

Yeah fair

i am not sure why fadel even put the sonic central image there

patent hazel
#

What do you think we will hear about first

boreal canyon
#

no idea

#

havent really been keeping up with this wave of sonic stuff

random portal
#

i still dont think any news on movie 3 or sonadow gens will pop up until sgf

boreal canyon
#

yeah that sounds about right

#

whens that supposed to be, anyway

ancient moss
#

june 7th

#

so

#

i think its gonna be before that

boreal canyon
#

in a month

ancient moss
#

a month is a bit too long imo

#

like i can still see late may

#

but idk about june

#

i mean june for SXSG makes sense but not really movie 3 to me idk

patent hazel
#

I feel like if we was to get anything this month it’ll be movie 3 trailer, played in front of IF

#

Other than that, I don’t see anything until SGF

steep sequoia
#

theyve been doing it annually for 3 years now

patent hazel
#

i think he means not this month

boreal canyon
steep sequoia
#

ah

patent hazel
#

Oh

steep sequoia
#

well wants and reality are often different

patent hazel

so my confirmation biases are telling me that there wont be one

#

im manifesting the lack of sonic central

#

😁

patent hazel
#

Looool

steep sequoia
#

hope it works out tbh

balmy fiber
#

We dont need a centrallll

boreal canyon
steep sequoia
#

they do it so close to sgf that it just guarantees that there wont be major reveals in the central lol

#

cause of course theyll save it for geoff

boreal canyon
#

my favorite part is always how they "announce" and "reveal" either

  • shit we already knew
  • shit nobody gaf about
patent hazel
#

I guess it’s worth watching the central if we get a tease for the shadow powerhouse animation for shadow generations

boreal canyon
#

if its like the frontiers knux one

#

they can keep it

patent hazel
#

Lmao

steep sequoia
#

me when knuckles is present in the animation about him

patent hazel
#

That same central we get frontiers gameplay albeit just the squid fight

steep sequoia
boreal canyon
#

dude is just standing there

#

and its raining

#

woa, what a teaser

#

i think that literally anything beyond what they actually showed wouldve been a good teaser

#

like

#

a narration line

#

a short clip of the enemies spawning in

#

or even a quick flash of lightning showing a portal or ANYTHING

balmy fiber
#

I dont get the clamoring for a central when all we get is garbage

vale raft

#

I couldn't give a damn over the central anyways

i remember when the community was joking about the central having 5 second teasers

uhhhh sonic central related? there's a possibility it would've had people talking about it and all that stuff

I'll post in games tho

Alright, just it felt more like a casual conversation topic rather than something full on rumor and such

steep sequoia
#

So they are not even done yet

It seems that after the success of frontiers and their desire to turn sonic into AAA they supervising projects a lot more from other developers

Wanna know what a zelda game coule look like on this

quaint mountain
#

A new xenoblade game

static elm
#

I hope they give totk a 60 fos patch

#

And also yeah

#

The next zelda game is gonna be insane on this

open maple
static elm
#

Yeah but idrc about botw ngl

#

But yeah i hope this implies that they'll give one to totk

balmy fiber
#

Im pretty sure they can give a 60 fps patch to both botw and totk

static elm
#

Man i can't imagine how the next zelda game will looks like

#

Like being fr

#

Totk is a very pretty game

#

For the switch

#

Znd the open world is giant and seamless

#

Now imagine what they'll be able to do with a console 10 times as powerful

open maple
#

And with the care it is given

#

like zelda has it's irks, but they are extremely well taken care

quaint mountain
#

I hope their next Zelda game isn't BoTW/ToTK-like if I'm honest

azure trail
#

The next zelda should look like that one Wii U demo

static elm
#

Twilight princess hd

open maple
#

Aunoma did say they don't plan to do any sequels to that world

static elm
#

😭

open maple
#

he said the next zelda will be completely new

static elm
open maple
#

They said they told the story they wanted to tell

static elm
#

The potential for dlc

#

There's like

#

A novel series to be written

#

About it

#

Cuz there's so much mysteries left

#

RHAHHHH I WANT MORE TOTK

open maple
#

A novel series?

glacial cliff
#

Sega should port every game they have on there

#

But on a more serious note

#

I can't help but flashback to Switch and Wii U days

static elm
glacial cliff
#

Where the specs get so hyped up pre-release only to be underwhelming

open maple
quaint mountain
#

Ain't no way you're suggesting Switch 2 is gonna be a WiiU situation

glacial cliff
#

In terms of specs?

#

Maybe

#

As in

#

Switch 2 will be lower specs than ps4 and xbone in some aspects

#

Which mind you

#

Is still fine-ish

static elm
glacial cliff
#

Cause barely anyone is really making games that warrant ps5/x series exclusivity

quaint mountain
azure trail
glacial cliff
#

I sure hope so

#

The thing about it is

#

As far as I'm aware

azure trail
#

Maybe is part of the Nintendo cycle, good console then failure console...

glacial cliff
#

Switch is one of the few consoles ever to cost less to manufacture than to sell

#

Because of the low specs

#

And I feel they want to continue that trend with Switch 2

static elm
quaint mountain
#

^

glacial cliff
#

Xbox 360 was

#

8 years old from the Wii U

quaint mountain
#

Yeah and Switch was 11

azure trail
#

Jesus I always forget Wii u wasn't even as powerful as the PS3

glacial cliff
#

12

quaint mountain
#

I don't understand the concern you're trying to make

balmy fiber
glacial cliff
#

The concern is that porting games to the Switch 2 continues to be a pain

balmy fiber
#

Im so done with that universe get it away from ne

glacial cliff
#

And take up large development time

azure trail
#

They already done with open world Zelda overall

#

Next one might be just like the others

static elm
#

I wouldn't count on that davih ngl

balmy fiber
#

What

#

Davih did you

quaint mountain
balmy fiber
#

Fucking miss Aounuma saying their old games are outdated and that the future of Zelda will forever be open air games like botw and totk, that there is no reason for them to ever go back

#

Cuz im gonna say you did

quaint mountain
#

I'd argue it's gonna be easier because of Series S, as much as I dislike that platform

glacial cliff
#

Cause the gap should slowly diminish from this point onwards

#

Xbox is probably done with traditional consoles

#

And Sony most likely gonna follow suit soon after

#

But ps6 is just gonna feel like more ps5

static elm
#

Btw, is there like... anything about an ssd for the next console ? Cuz last i heard no but it'd be weird in 2025 ngl

glacial cliff
#

What is ssf

static elm
#

ssd*

left umbra
#

short for solid state drive

quaint mountain
static elm
#

I just misspelled i think tobe knows what an ssd is lmao

quaint mountain
#

So a flash memory that's close to Series consoles' speeds

glacial cliff
#

sss

#

Speed Sim strikes again

static elm
#

FUCK

quaint mountain
#

It's also on most phones and 3.1 is generally pretty good

glacial cliff
#

Man

#

Gonna be crazy

#

First time since Generations that Sonic games aren't concerned about major downporting

static elm
#

Watch people say

#

"SONIC WHATEVER IS LIMITED BY THE SWITCH 2!!!!!"

glacial cliff
#

I sure hope not

#

It would help if they ditch ps4 and xbone as well

static elm
#

Nobody does for now

glacial cliff
#

Cause if Sonic Team just has to focus on 3(4) consoles with comparable specs and similar development pipelines

quaint mountain
#

Some slowly do, SEGA doesn't tho

glacial cliff
#

It'll be gold for them

quaint mountain
#

mfers releasing a game in 2024 for base PS4

glacial cliff
#

They will for Metaphor no?

static elm
#

Nope

#

Ps4

glacial cliff
#

Nvm

static elm
#

No xbox one tho i think

glacial cliff
#

Good

quaint mountain
#

Yeah, Xbone is ditched by most JP companies

glacial cliff
#

Even if they barely have to change anything

quaint mountain
#

you can guess why

glacial cliff
#

Just saves time testing

#

And soj doesn't even do the PC ports

#

So they can just hard focus on optimizing for the main consoles

open maple
azure trail
#

December

quaint mountain
#

Early 2025

#

I hope they make enough of a stockpile to not get screwed the same way PS5 and SeXbox were for several years

balmy fiber
#

March 3rd 2025

#

Switch 8th year

open maple
#

They are getting the biggest amount of copies done as possible

open maple
balmy fiber
#

Wow

#

The fuck will the switch 1 have then

quaint mountain
#

We'll see in June

balmy fiber
#

They said TOTK would be the last big game for the switch

#

... are you sure there is still a whole fucking year

quaint mountain
#

Maybe not of big games, but sure

open maple
#

They are doing mostly remake and some 'lower' priority games so it will be some of that

balmy fiber
#

Might as well pull the Metroid Prime 4 card

#

Better be some good remakes

quaint mountain
#

FE4 Remake tho

balmy fiber
#

FE4
Xenoblade X
Wind Waker TP
F Zero GX

#

You know they could do a kid icarus uprising remake

azure trail
#

That only happens in dreams

#

Nintendo might never give uprising a second chance sadly

balmy fiber
#

But yea its about time we get wind waker and tp hd port

azure trail
#

I would like wind waker

balmy fiber
#

I want both

azure trail
#

Xenoblade X is probably never going to happen

balmy fiber
#

Why not

azure trail
#

That game failed horrible and it was expensive as hell

balmy fiber
#

Cuz it was on wii u yes

#

And it was a sequel to a game exclusive to gamespot

#

😭

#

Like

#

Please

#

Xenoblade is not how it was in 2015

azure trail
#

As for f zero lmfao

#

They already got the f zero 99

balmy fiber
#

Idk f zero 99 did well

azure trail
balmy fiber
#

Yea?

boreal canyon
balmy fiber
#

Why not more

#

We are always hoping for that march

open maple
#

F-Zero GX is so fun

azure trail
#

Fzero is hard to expect anything

balmy fiber
#

Why

azure trail
#

Nintendo don't even think about it when doing something

balmy fiber
#

....

#

Davih can you stop acting like there is no logic to the success of f zero 99 meaning something

azure trail
#

Remember that one guy that literally became a holder just to ask one of Nintendo ceos if there was a chance for fzero just for them to say they had nothing in mind 😭

balmy fiber
#

For now yes

#

But we also just got F ZERO 99

#

AND IT DID WELL

azure trail
#

How much

balmy fiber
#

Its a free online game lol

azure trail
#

Number of players I mean

balmy fiber
#

Idk but it went really well i remember

#

Anyways fuck fzero

#

Metroid of some kind for sure

#

Metroid Prime 2

azure trail
#

💀

balmy fiber
#

Xenoblade X, is a no brainer for a port, cuz xenoblade, is now, popular

dry sorrel
azure trail
#

Nintendo should do a Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks remake

#

With wind waker controls graaaa

urban scroll
#

Rhythm bros...

hearty bluff
#

i need

urban scroll
#

There might still be a chance!

hearty bluff
#

them

hearty bluff
#

to bring the remasters from the wii u to the switch please

urban scroll
hearty bluff
#

PLEASE

hearty bluff
#

i just need them

#

specifically twilight princess

#

give me TP

#

and all will be well nintendo

urban scroll
#

I'm in the middle of playing WW, and yeah they're literally isn't anything stopping them from porting them over😭

#

It's like one of the only games the Wii U has anymore

hearty bluff
#

it's funny though because you'd assume the gamepad functionality but

#

you can literally play both

#

in

#

like the pro controller

olive vortex
#

I’m still betting on no later than March 2025 imo

#

Seems like they taking the fiscal year thing a bit seriously

urban scroll
#

It's just

#

One less button you need to press

#

You can switch the display so that it only plays on the gamepad, but that's just the switch at that point, so

hearty bluff
#

mhm

olive vortex
#

I mean even tho it’s a no shit

#

Still pretty much confirmed

boreal canyon
#

We’re going back to proper yearly releases for Sonic, even if not everything is a core title

balmy fiber
#

Yep

north vault
#

hmmm

#

cool if we get yearly stuff but like, my concern is moreso "will it be quality" cos other than Frontiers (and to a degree Superstars) a lot of it has been

#

not that lmao

#

SC:U and Origins were both binworthy for a start

balmy fiber
#

Well, honestly, if sonic has enough quality control to have spinoffs and such by multiple developers

#

Sure!

#

Like
We had the kishimoto team
We had the oshima team
We have the hardlight team
We have the rovio team

quaint mountain
#

Wouldn't exactly call Origins binworthy, even at the start

balmy fiber
#

We just need more quality control

quaint mountain
#

It had problems, but when I see "bin" I see shovelware they've released in 90s and 2000s

#

But also yeah, QC should be a thing to not have the same problems

north vault
balmy fiber
#

Barebones sure

quaint mountain
#

I wouldn't say it's just widescreen, it's moreso a lot of it is under the hood

balmy fiber
#

Plus helped it make like a fuller package

#

Yea

quaint mountain
#

Since they're essentially remakes

#

And this version specifically was stuck on phones

#

Or PS3 with Sonic CD

#

Them being on modern platforms also helps

#

Cuz, y'know, not everyone plays games on PC

north vault
#

like, on sale they're worth it, these are good games at their core after all, but they were absolutely taking the piss with 35 quid and even moreso with the physical release throwing early adopters under the bus with the plus DLC

quaint mountain
#

SCU would be binworthy tho, yeah, that shit was dire

north vault
#

SCU deserves more than bin its going straight down a pit to hell

boreal canyon
#

It’s going to be yearly sludge like the 2000s era

#

But, this is exactly what people missed, right?!?! We’re so back

quaint mountain
#

To be honest - yes

#

If you release sludge, at least make it a yearly tradition than every 5 years

#

Cuz at least I'll understand the former

umbral gale
#

True

#

If shit ain’t improving at all

#

At least rapidly release that stuff

#

Become like Pokémon

shut zodiac
#

The more things change, the more they stay the same

quaint mountain
#

Also again, it says "remakes, DLC releases, media" etc.

dire quiver
#

There was a considerably big drought after Forces, right? I assume this is to prevent that.

quaint mountain
#

It's not just "games"

north vault
#

sludge era, but now with a bit of child-targeted mobile gambling on the side

#

future!!!!!

quaint mountain
#

That's been there since 2017

#

Earlier even with Runners that died

boreal canyon
#

So… the side games become better than the main offering?

#

I think I’d rather die

north vault
#

back in my day when the gambling was the gambling.....

balmy fiber
#

I mean, at least the main line games wont come every year

#

Like one yea we get 3d sonic

#

The other we get dlc

#

The other 2d

#

The other spinoff

#

The other a remake

#

Sounds good to me :]

boreal canyon
#

remake

balmy fiber
#

As long as it isnt like everything at the same time by the same devs

dire quiver
#

It won't be all games.

boreal canyon
#

Had to sneak that one in there

umbral gale
balmy fiber
#

And yea it wont be all games

umbral gale
#

But you can sure that take away too

dire quiver
#

So, I think this is good.

balmy fiber
#

It will be tv shows, movies, comics, events

#

Yea me too

boreal canyon
balmy fiber
#

Sega is now all eyes on sonic

umbral gale
balmy fiber
dire quiver
#

Like they should be keanu .

umbral gale
#

I will wait and see first

#

Unlike Pokémon, I did enjoy the latest mainline entry of a franchise, despite it flaws

balmy fiber
#

Like, game freak is a whole special problem

#

Sega when they care about a franchise, they will polish it to the brim

#

Yakuza and Persona as example

#

And now that sega is like, gonna put tons of effort into sonic as a franchise with shit like, possibly RGG Studios or Atlus working in sonic games more often

#

Sounds like it could make a tremendous difference

umbral gale
#

Again, it just words right now with Sonic. I’m willing to see if they aren’t gonna be bluffing this time

#

Unlike with Pokemon, where I have lost all hope for that series to be ever good again

solemn flower
#

If I had to guess, maybe some of these smaller releases, if not developed by Sonic Team, then they’ll probably have some projects be done by other studios.

Would make sense and to help not stress out the folks at ST too much if we’re going back to yearly releases of projects big and small

#

Would be cool if we got another game by the social team again like tmosth

balmy fiber
#

Yea, idk, this sounds like good news

#

Is not like sonic wasnt already kinda yearly

steep sequoia
#

i prefer yearly sludge to waiting 5 years only for it to still be shit

#

cause they already done prove that even with a lot of time, they still can botch things up

balmy fiber
#

Yea 2003 wasnt the most quality year for sonic but there was a ton of sonic

quaint mountain
#

And like, the main team will still be making their mainline game, while you get smaller teams, either within Division 2, Division 4 with Sonic Rumble, Hardlight or supposedly Sumo Digital, make smaller releases

And again, "media" is included, which means Paramount is included, maybe some other streamer or animation company or whatever

balmy fiber
#

Yea like this seems way better structured

#

We wont get open zone games every year

quaint mountain
#

That's how most franchises work (or at least should work)

#

Persona should be the same thing really, tho that's mostly Atlus, with maybe some support from other companies

steep sequoia
#

really all they need to do is make sure that the major releases is what they try to wrangle quality control on and sacrifice the little side projects if necessary. thats the mistake they made in the 2000s.

there was a large quantity of sonic stuff and a lot of good games, its just that it tended to be the smaller releases like ds games and such. but everyone remembers shadow and 06 cause while thats just two games, those were major

quaint mountain
#

Pretty much, yeah

steep sequoia
#

so tbh, if we get more more "mid" remasters and spinoffs i dont mind, they just need to stick the landing on frontiers 2

quaint mountain
#

Well, maybe less on "sacrifice smaller" thing, smaller projects would still help a bit

#

...as long as you're not doing a Square lmao

steep sequoia
#

you know what i mean

#

they just need to be serviceable, not total disasters

solemn flower
#

Maybe they’ll probably do another collection at some point

quaint mountain
#

Would be nice to have a collection of earlier 3d outings and/or remasters please

wise turret
#

like say

#

oh I dunno

#

make Adventure DX/2 be unavailable on Steam and Xbox One/Series (Back Compat)

#

why am I not mentioning the PS3 and Xbox 360?

#

should be obvious

quaint mountain
#

You're not wrong, but

  1. if either of those remasters would improve on PC ports (which are already ass), I wouldn't cry over it, and
  2. as if it won't disappear from XBone/Series in 5 years alongside the entire store when they leave the hardware industry anyway 🗿
#

And also 3) I hate thinking negatively, I'm already getting my fill of it every day

balmy fiber
wise turret
#

wonder how that would impact future multi-platform Sonic games on Nintendo systems

#

especially if the leak of the system using an RTX 3060-tier GPU is still held up

quaint mountain
#

I thought this was posted already, no?

urban scroll
#

It was a different post

open maple
#

So probably it will help to now have a huge down grade

gloomy bloom
#

built-in microphone WE ARE SO BACK

solemn flower
solemn flower
#

Ahh

gloomy bloom
#

besides hardware inside, I hope the build quality of this is decent

solemn flower
#

Hope the console packaging is nice

balmy fiber
#

Nintendo Muji

open maple
#

Muji means something akin to 'dream handler' or 'dream governor'

solemn flower
#

Was wondering what it meant cause I kept getting some different uhh meanings

open maple
#

The kanji can have various meanings in general

lost snow
#

Nintendo Mujin Buu

lost snow
#

Damn I got even more jokes but I must resist, it's not funny tbh

#

I'm still looking forward to Switch 2

#

I guess the name means it's going to be a "simple, practical" console according to other translations

open maple
tardy pivot

in the words of a friend 'finally, the nintendo dreamcast'

Posting about internal codenames and info from multiple companies so bluntly

open maple

😭

open maple
ripe cypress
#

Wha

open maple
#

Makes sense

#

Back at Gamescom of last year, there were some people who said they could see botw at 60 fps

#

in the switch 2

ripe cypress
#

Oh if it's an improved port that makes more sense imo

open maple
#

Yeah, yeah

ripe cypress
#

I was gonna say that the Zelda rumor popping up the same time as this had me thinking tho...

#

Maybe a Bowser's Fury kind of deal?

open maple
#

I wonder what will they add then

#

something to connect botw with totk better?

ripe cypress
#

I feel like half the stuff I could think of might already be in TotK or BotW's DLC since I haven't gotten around to finishing either yet, so idk lol

#

But if there's a Zelda focus it could be less the traditional BotW gameplay and more Zelda focused

#

Mechanically somehow

vale raft
#

unless there's gonna be a zelda campaign?

#

a la extra mode like bowser's fury

open maple
#

Who knows? I assume this new port will have botw + the champion's ballad as part of the base game

ripe cypress
#

Man this has me worried about how far away the next Zelda would be in this case

#

Unless they get two teams working simultaneously

ripe cypress
#

Should have been there since the start imo

#

Grraaaah this is reminding me of how close I was to actually getting around to those extra dungeons too bigsad

#

I need to lock in…..
