last two states of play had sonic
And the sega financial report got moved to this Friday when it was meant to be last Friday…

But it being an hour long and announced pretty early compared to the usual 1-2 days before kind of makes me 
raw osprey
they also note "February’s State of Play will spotlight eye-catching third-party"

But also I'm kind of expecting one game to be like "here's 15 minutes of us explaining this videogame"

CoD or FF7 related
wise chasm
it's gonna be Fairgame$ this time instead of concord

That shit ain't getting announced till May-August

He isn't like Knuckles where he is an actual brawler

coarse ferry
Even Heroes show this too where he always uses projectiles
raw osprey
its so stupid when they animate him like this
again he is a heavy ass robot but he always moved really smooth games before 06 show this
its just that in 06 i guess they animate him more "robotic" cause of toned down tone and they jsut kept it till crossworlds
cunning echo
Ig is to make him feel different from gamma
sick bobcat
speaking of Heroes Knuckles and Omega
I like that there is this cool detail of Knuckles being able to do rapid punches that Omega couldn't do
raw osprey
its just that in 06 i guess they animate him more "robotic" cause of toned down ...
dark begginings also animate him really good i feel like they struck good balance between smootness and robotic
forest fractal
Too bad, he barely has any lines
untold kayak
its just that in 06 i guess they animate him more "robotic" cause of toned down ...
I personally think animating him like that misses the point of Omega
He's supposed to be the Best of the E-series, a destructive robot
By making him super slow animation wise
It kind of makes him feel weaker
Specially 06 got way too overboard and neutered lots of Omega's nature Even in dialogue
He feels like another robot entirely
coarse ferry
Just another day of 06 lmao

crossworlds
silent haven
the fact it’s at the end really could mean it’s either/or unless they specified somewhere else in that thread so
silent haven
mmm
nothing specified for anything else though
i think just spotlighting crossworlds at the SoP would be a crazy fumble unless those tracks and voices are coming soon because billy hatcher and PSO are not getting people hyped the way miku and joker did let's be real
smoky summit
I hate to be that guy, but this "leak" popped up literally 1 day after NatetheHate mentioned first half of February SoP
And I believe he say tentative date was the 12th (because its been discussed here for a while)
I can't find where he said that though
So this person "predicting" the State of Play date is not really a prediction.
Nothing they said is particularly crazy although it is fairly wish-listy
dawn pumice
I’d only believe that leak if that got those characters and dlc right one to one
smoky summit
If everything here is somehow real, then they work at sega
Now, it's entirely possible that they have 1 real scoop and are bullshitting the rest
Which does happen sometimes
dawn pumice
Also if that’s the case then there’s prob a central later in the month
dawn pumice
I do too
smoky summit
Hopefully the case is put to rest tomorrow
Good effort though
More believable than the other bs Eclipse leak that was like "yeah sega is just gonna casually put 15 new tracks in Crossworlds"

Lowkey extra validity but yea

frontiers 2 probably started development before this whole initiative so i doubt...
I wouldn’t rule out some kind of tie-in
past matrix
Yeah with Iizuka being an consultant or producer of sorts on the sega side of things with these films, him being aware of them going to introduce metal & Amy more than likely was not lost on him & taking the initiative to bump up their relevance next game is even higher
wide portal
They had a movie reference in Frontiers after all, I highly doubt they didn’t have a heads up on how movie 3 was gonna end
untold kayak
probably the next game can have metal and amy and some other few elements in-between
but thats it really
cunning echo
And... 
untold kayak
like shadow gens reintroduced shadow's story and what not for movie 3, but it doesn't (obviously) follow the same terrain as movie 3
past matrix
Yeah I don't think they'll take plot points from the film or anything ofc. A new mainline game compared to what was essentially a bigger DLC in a remastered title that's an character piece, is probably gonna go it's own direction regardless.
Amy & Metal's relevancy could be as big as them both just simply being there, or given a punch up in some regards.

thinking of jokes of a nature not appropriate for this conversation
smoky summit
Reasons why I kind of trust this leak:
- They don't say anything outlandish or beyond the scope of what a 30 min session would tell them
- tentacle purple arm is such an out there concept that's just really hard to think of (like Shadow with doom wings or morph), that I don't see a typical Sonic fan thinking of it.
- Even if a Sonic fan did think of it, it's not the sort concept they'd want to put in a leak because people won't be as interested (Like Justin M's comment, or the fact that the leak barely got any attention)

where did the leak even come from again
Someone said they were in a test group and said the host was a bit oblivious to the cameras

And they presented 3 games to see reactions for
The only thing we couldn’t prove was when it was shown off cuz blitz was one of the three games
The other one was a fighting game

Also, using the terminology open world instead of open zone

i lowk forgot smackdown was a part of that
that brings down its credibility by 8% for me

I bet they put that into gpt ngl
That’s prob the first name that can come up

either way i don't see it

That’s the thing
We don’t know when it was released
The only thing we got was that the zoom host was actually a sega marketing employee
So getting that detail right is kinda nuts
grand cobalt
yeah that's fairly solid
unless they looked up a random sega marketing employee to help with the narrative
which i would say is too far but sonic fans are crazy
dawn pumice
But even then, she was kinda dug deep in the employees
grand cobalt
the main thing holding this one up is the fact it even uses ai tbh
dawn pumice
So that’s kinda an asspull
Going deep into the employees to pull someone like that for a fake leak is crazy

i wish we could know the zoom date though
dawn pumice
That’s what I wanna know but it’s lowkey impossible to find
grand cobalt
it'd not only confirm or deny if its legit but
it'd also help us find out how far back it was (aka figure out a potential release year)
grand cobalt
on another note, tobe said he thinks there'll be sonic at sop because they haven't released a finanical report yet right?
dawn pumice
Ya
The financial report got delayed til this week
When for the past 4 years it’s always been the first week of Feb
grand cobalt
closed off websites usually appear around that time so we should keep our peepers open in that regard
dawn pumice
I think it might be just crossworlds stuff at most
grand cobalt
true
cunning echo
We don’t know when it was released
doesn't it say it on the 4chan post?
dawn pumice
Na
grand cobalt
now that i think about it, crossworlds dlc was at both of the last two
mega man in the last main one, and the next batch of sega ones in the japan showcase
coarse ferry
Which makes sense in order to let us know about the DLC chars
~~Please phantasy star char next 🙏 ~~
grand cobalt
well now that we know eclipse is done for
someone please bless the crying puyo puyo fans
salvage them
dawn pumice
doesn't it say it on the 4chan post?
They could’ve posted it on that day, but we don’t know if the meeting was weeks before

smoky summit
on another note, tobe said he thinks there'll be sonic at sop because they haven...
I'm 99.9% sure sega will be there with big trailers not necessarily Sonic
grand cobalt
i'd be satisfied with sega
but it'd also feel like leftovers from tga if that were the case 😭
smoky summit
Like sega is literally the only big JP publisher that hasn't released their report yet
Nintendo, Capcom, Square, Bamco, Konami all released last week or earlier
coarse ferry
Yeah that's the thing
And with the timing over SoP, it'll be very bothersome they shown no big trailer
Crossworld is at least a given because they have to at least show the next chars but even then it's at least a veyr fast one to do
smoky summit
I'm not necessarily factoring Crossworlds in the equation cause more dlc isn't necessarily a reason for them to delay their report
grand cobalt
then what would?
more info about stuff already announced like rewind or stranger than heaven, or something entirely unrevealed
smoky summit
Whatever they show is something that will actually swing the stock
The only reason I'm skeptical about something unrevealed, is because they already have so much stuff already announced
(besides Sonic ofc),
But like
I would not be shocked if they even announce something about the super game initiative
You know that roblox style hub thing we hear about every now and then
coarse ferry
If so I had a feeling it'll be JSR next
modest parcel
You know that roblox style hub thing we hear about every now and then
Tbh I assumed that aspect is vaporware atp
That or the integration it has into the games is smaller scale and not worth much
silent haven
has it even been mentioned by them at all recently? last i heard them talking about was when NFTs were still a thing and they wanted to add them
p sure it’s dead or got watered down into smaller stuff

yeah it prolly just led to nothing in the end

But yeah bare minimum next 2D needs to look just as lively and colorful as Mania in 3D visuals. Bring back having boss fights where if you’re skilled enough you can make quick work of em. A soundtrack that’s more consistent in style and having themes of the same stage change up from the Act 1. They’re going to get more composers like they did with Soup but at least have it sound good all the way through and not change the melodies for various acts that sounds completely different from Act 1

Like with Mania's special stage

where we always had a cutscene in between the levels
we see sonic and tails doing shenanigans and there is knuckles and amy and they are out of order

I can see something like the emerald powers (or abilities with a wheel again) being expanded on
maybe Advance 3 team ups?

you can switch between them any time you want and get alt paths and new levels
advance 3 yes
dawn pumice
If there’s ever a 2D Sonic game, make it hand drawn :)
forest fractal
I wonder how they’ll tackle multiple characters? Will they just go for the main cast shares the same story with slight variations or will we go back to each character has their own story segment that has variations based on gameplay? Will a new character be added like Trip? Wonder if the Witchcarters or Battle Kukku will make an appearance
rugged otter
if it's classic then I got a wild guess
Classic Chaotix, and probably Charmy being just a tinier version of his modern self so not really anything too accurate.
rugged otter
if it was modern then I could only pray they'd bring Gemerl back for any reason
but a playable role would be pretty sweet
forest fractal
Gemerl is long overdue
rugged otter
lean in on the Advance vibes
need an established moveset for him already, tired of the theorising or relying on comics man 😭
but also it's crazy how there is not a single standalone sonic game that has him playable

Would Tangle be fun enough in 2D? Like she could grapple to stuff and I suppose bounce higher but I don’t think there’s a whole lot of diversity to her tail that could be developed as a fleshed out moveset but I suppose those two points work well enough.
