See you all in June

Tbh I'm going to predict they will not announce new updates for CW until T&W are released like with the previous announcement of further free updates, NiGHTS, AiAi and Tangle and Whisper were announced early December right after the previously scheduled festivals were all done

the eclipse leak?
Honestly
in some way I'd say is because there are multiple of it
you know how most frontiers leak were all about rangers codename
is kinda the same here
while there hasn't been multiple eclipse leaks per say
is mostly like
they just mention eclipse
😭
the way people see it is the way rangers appeared here and there too

"paramount vetoed movie for crossworlds" is the funniest part of this lmao

i am crying actually
strange estuary
I thought we were supposed to stop posting pointless 4chan posts
Is there a single new thing in this one?
modest parcel
We're going to kill you now SONiCGO2O (No, you shouldn't post any old 4chan leak without meaningful commentary; that's the criteria that was brought up last time)
But that sure has been stretched by some users going "Oh look, here's a new 4chan post" and leaving it at that, as well
The relevancy of the Sonic Eclipse speculation might seem like a pro, but once you get enough of these it becomes another instance of random 4chan posts hopping on a bandwagon
strange estuary
Yeah, I don't really want to see 4chan posts if they don't provide anything new or you don't have anything to say
lavish iron
Eh
modest parcel
It's all good but ideally we shouldn't be doing it, no

excited for sonic dimensions
heard it's got multiple sonics of different colors and different abilities
it should be coming out some time after SLW
safe hull
philbert tickletoes will be added in season pass 2 with the map "downtown detroit" described by devs as the track with the most obstacles and hazards using real road data from Detroit.
A 3d model of Wade Whipple was created but couldn't be implemented due to it overloading the gpu so paramount just told sega to stop with the movie stuff
beavis and butthead were supposed to arrive but sega was terrified of the word butt and proceeded to tell the modelers to remove any roundness from rouge's posterior instead.
Jet Set Radio is dead and you will be too.
Subway stickers will be added to the game in collaboration with Subway creating the Sonic Special, a loaded footlong resembling Eggman's realistic sandwich from Unleashed.
Classic Sonic isn't added but instead a voxel Retro Sonic with a bitcrushed filter over Sonic's lines and the Pixelized Speedster
rugged otter
I blame the Switch for the lack of Wade, fuck you Switch

Honestly want make this leaks fake to me is unleashed remaster
Considering how much Sega wants sonic games to have good reception from critics I dunno how you even make unleadhed get them without completely reworking the game
Plus like unleashed remaster is just such a fan favorite request they def add it to please sonic fans reading this leaks
We probably just gonna get standalone Amy game
coarse ferry
I can honestly agreed
I feel like they only did that with SXSG just to test the water with Shadow's popularity
lunar trench
Idk, imo they'll never re release nonroger stuff imo
A remake maybe
But no remasters
strange estuary
What does being non-Roger have to do with not being re-released?
silent haven
it’s just from the pattern of solely colors/gens getting rereleases i think
(i don’t buy it at all fwiw especially when sa1 and sa2 are still there for anyone on steam/xbox)
strange estuary
I don't know if I want to call that a pattern, that's only two games
silent haven
yeah again i don’t believe it at all
past matrix
I won't rule it out, in the sense that it's one of the more recent/start of the boost formula that isn't shackled to a Nintendo console deal.
They've done Gens, they've done colors, they ain't shying away from showing unleashed stuff.
I wouldn't mind it happening.
Just a matter of how.
strange estuary
That is indeed Sonic

hard to tell cos of the head angle but that's hoshino on the right-hand side too, right

It's definitely odd that he's in the SoJ office
But maybe they just wanted to play with him

Watch it just be a song for Crossworlds as DLC
strange estuary
That would still be big
prime hearth
its def not a crossworlds song, they didn't splash on the busted guy for nothing lol
its either next game, next movie or the less interesting but very likely third option of "he just really likes sonic and blagged his way into the HQ cos he's rich and famous"

That would be a funny outcome, though

Do you know
How long I've been waiting for something like those MJ influence days for sonic to come back?
For the SLIM chance, of black influence in these tracks once more.
And these images come on black history month?
Let this be something big, so I can feel vindicated. Just this once.

For the SLIM chance, of black influence in these tracks once more.
we'll see. I've ranted on and on about how i think the musical direction in a lot of the series in eneral has been uh lacking in more recent titles. New influences would be dope, so we shall see

I'm mostly just holding out for that alleged state of play in conjuction with that 4chan post saying all that crossworlds shit that's supposed to be there.
If that happens, then I'm set.
If it doesn't, we proceed.
All I know is something is gonna come now that we're in the birthday year.

Singing the ending theme or something 😭

I don't think it will be

I'm thinking in-game music, not even big moments, just general ambiance
dawn pumice
U really think so?

Yea
dawn pumice
I’m thinking he has a much bigger role than that

Wym bigger
Setting an entire Sonic game's tone throughout is bigger than like

How u think he's gonna do bg music for the whole ass game ?
Or at least one area
modest parcel
Idk they're just gonna be collabing on songs and shit
hybrid hill
yea the setup looks like a song or two
dawn pumice
I think so too
hybrid hill
most likely an ending theme too
dawn pumice
But still, idk weeknd is giving heavy opening vibes
modest parcel
Hmmmm
dawn pumice
Gotta see what the games general theme is
modest parcel
Idk I think it could be a lot bigger
hybrid hill
i just hope we get some ok rock in there we need ohtanis wish to be fulfilled of having them do an original sonic song 🥺
modest parcel
Definitely
modest parcel
Think of it this way
MJ did that photo op before doing Sonic 3 music
Or at least assigning his team to it
hybrid hill
Idk I think it could be a lot bigger
my expectation is that its gonna be a pokemon x ed sheeran level of collab 😭
modest parcel
Nothing requring them make all the music in THAT specific trip necessarily
modest parcel
U think he’s doing a good chunk of the soundtrack???
Yea
Or at least a sizable amount of tracks
hybrid hill
would be genuinely surpised if that would be the case
modest parcel
Like Hunnid P did for SA2
dawn pumice
I would be surprised too
hybrid hill
i wonder whats thundercats involvement in this coz he had a trip to the sega us offices recently 😭
dawn pumice
Wasn’t he also with The Weeknd?
modest parcel
They're both posting pictures mirroring MJ sonic pictures
dawn pumice
Idk I still feel like this is some main vocal stuff
U think it’ll be another indie person or kinda like out there?
modest parcel
I think we'll definitely be getting more artists as time goes on
dawn pumice
I feel like with them having a movie budget, putting someone like The Weeknd or Thundercat as the “HEY LOOK WHOS DOING THE MAIN THEME” would be smart no?
hybrid hill
imagine the precedent this would set and the ost of the next game gets copyright troubles similar to sonic 3's ost 😭
modest parcel
Frontiers had One OK Rock, To Octavia, Kellin Quinn, and Danger Kids
dawn pumice
Bro I bet Sega is making them sign a fucking Bible at this point
modest parcel
Next game def needs the same amount of collabs or more
dawn pumice
Frontiers had One OK Rock, To Octavia, Kellin Quinn, and Danger Kids
Great collabs but like

Lowkey my brother made that same joke a few hours ago

the fact that the creepy nuts in crossworlds got like 0 FANFARE at all is insane

At the risk of sounding like the whitest person eating bland rice, it'd be on a similar level for me if Ed Sheeran made music for Sonic

kinda crazy how theyre kinda going with the pop direction
havent seen that since.........................................classic sonic................

mint umbra
I wonder if ohtani is gonna lean into that with the OST
wise chasm
kinda crazy how theyre kinda going with the pop direction
Maybe that's why I don't exactly see what everyone else sees, I'm just not a fan of current pop all that much
modest parcel
All Sonic music is pop-adjacent tho
mint umbra
Tbf I doubt they're gonna abandon any sort of rock music anyway
They saw how good the reception to the titan tracks was
And pop isn't really good boss battle music
mint umbra
Idk, I think ohtani knows this series needs some guitar at times
modest parcel
Again though, I don't think Thundercat or The Weeknd are here for boss fights
It's either ending themes, opening theme, or stage music
Imo
mint umbra
I feel like it's prob ending/credits music that they'll call the "main theme"
If they do have an opening cinematic unlike the last few mainline sonics, it might be used for that too
hybrid hill
best outcome is ohtani goes super diverse
mint umbra
I think gens is the last time they went with mainstream pop if you count some of the cash cash remixes
modest parcel
Mainstream then Gens yeah
modest parcel
The alternative R&Bification of Sonic starts NOW

THE WAIT IS FINALLY OVER
WE JUST GOT A TWEET FROM THE WEEKND AND THIS SHIT SAYS
modest parcel
Not exactly much worse from the usual cyberspace music in my opinion
I like it
Not every soundtrack is going to work for everyone but for me the pursuit of a musical juice for every individual OST is admirable
mint umbra
I still think they might have one ok rock do a track for this game though
modest parcel
Much better than the soundtracks falling into one specific style of music that stops trying
mint umbra
Ohtani said he wants to work with then on an original track, and they used a track by them for movie 3 so
I still see it

Sure, I just don't agree the mainstream pop is the way to go
modest parcel
Sonic 1 was them grabbing from mainstream pop artists!
It's in the series' DNA imo
wise chasm
Ok?
modest parcel
Oh
wise chasm
Doesn't mean it stayed as an identity
Like I wouldn't call a lot of Sonic OSTs straight up pop because even at their most popular they were still not in the same group as what was/is actually popular at the time

MJ definitely was, and from the photo shoots they're definitely riffing off of that imo

I guess my skepticism also comes from the picks for main theme for the movies and them all being kinda uhhhh mid-to-jelly-roll

If the next sonic game comes out and it is agreed that it has the chillest ost made by the weekend and thundercat I want an apology
Ok but those are the MOVIES
wise chasm
Unfounded? Yeah, but I can see SEGA having a weird brainrot in that aspect
modest parcel
This is Ohtani
Bro's been on board since forever
His musical direction doesn't miss
(we don't count forces synths)
Sega largely doesn't control a majority of decisions the movies do, that's Paramount
Like they get the final say maybe, but they're not the ones asking for the music
mint umbra
I feel like we might get more lo-fi music from ohtani this time
He seems to really like doing it
wide portal
I don’t know about it being a movie collab because then there’d be no point to call back to Michael Jackson
these references feel pretty substantial, especially in regards to the photos being 1:1

They even have him wearing the same jacket as Michael in one of the photos
modest parcel
Oh wow

These are the kind of vibes only Before and After the Sequel managed to capture
(Monkey paw curls and they're assigned to the next Superstars)

Honestly? I'd be a lot more open to that
Would actually make it automatically stand out from the rest of the 2d games unlike Superstars
modest parcel
I wouldn't be opposed to it
It's the kind of sauce classic sonic desperately needs
mint umbra
The rest of that game would need to match that sauce though

TRUE
wise chasm
I mean that's obvious
mint umbra
I'm just saying it would really suck if the ost had an original song by one of the biggest pop artists on the planet but the game still looked like
wise chasm
Tbf you can also say the opposite
The game can look immaculate, but if the soundtrack stays in the "remember the genesis????" mode, then it'd still suck ass
mint umbra
Yeah for sure
But I guess at least music is like
Something you could kindaaa get around if it sucks ass
By like, idk muting the music and playing smth in the background 😭
But you can't do that with visuals

Hard to find a track that compares

Imma play some devils advocate with the leaks
Let’s say the past / future shit is true

I don't know if I hear "Blinding Lights" when I see a neon city, I hear either vaporwave or something like this

or whatever John Wick movies were doing for nightclub scenes
modest parcel
See when I hear this I don't think something like a city, I think of something like an Eggman lair or something
Again not directly comparable to any weeknd or thundercat songs off the top of my head but this just fits their same vibe I feel
modest parcel
Actually yeah I feel the same going back
I still don't get the aversion to the sound
It's fairly varied across their discographies
wise chasm
I honestly couldn't tell by skimming through some of the tracks, but I also haven't gone through the entire discography of either of them, so maybe you're right
modest parcel
I haven't either, it's just the top songs listed on spotify that I put in that playlist
I thiiiiink Them Changes has a Sonic sfx at 1:13?
Might be a generic warp sfx though
Oh no that's the 3&K warp sfx for sure

I don't think Frontiers 2 will be a Sonic & Shadow game, but the latter has a 90% chance to appear as a playable character
humble drum
What if we made it a 0% chance instead

I still very much think Shadow as a playable character is highly unlikely
still epoch
thats very hopeful of you
cuz even if i didnt want shadow playable, to say it is very unlikely even with all his success... idk about that
strange estuary
He does not have to be playable
Have him just in the story
I can very much see him as an NPC for an appearance, at least
sick bobcat
if he shows up as an NPC, he will just be playable through mods
and he will be the first character to be a mod

zinc spear
The thing is most Sonic game names are based off its story or gimmick, so if you're coming up with a title then I guess part of it is taking a guess at one of those.
Generations' time travel, Forces' resistance, Colours' wisps, Secret Rings & Black knight pretty self explanatory. Frontiers you could argue is with the whole open world shtick
modest parcel
To make a proper guess you'd either have to go with your hope for what the next premise would be, or somehow try to predict what it would be based off of what seems most likely (which I don't think can work tbh)

eh, maybe. 5 of them have been playable in solo ventures in the last few games. Being Sonic , Tails, knuckles , amy and shadow The other two are metal and eggman.
