I'd honestly compare it to The Thing.

The Thing itself infects through blood and replaces a person's cells, becoming that person. This leads to a lot of paranoia to whoever is the thing. Seriously watch that movie again and tell me you don't see the same thing with the coronavirus.

Even more obvious in that in Fist Bump, the lyrics only ever mention two people, the player and sonic, but never factors in classic sonic, like the singer never says "the three of us" or anything like that

Ther probablay could ahve fixed or at least martginally improved the Avatar and Modern if they hadn't put time into Classic tbh.

edit: They probably could have fixed or at least marginally improved the Avatar and Modern if they hadn't put time into Classic tbh.

ALRIGHT I GET IT CLASSIC BAD NOT NEEDED OOGA BOOGA

I guess I struck a nerve?

Wording lmao

You have to kill yourself to get experience nowadays. They’re looking for that and degrees.

Job hunting is demoralizing. Keep your head up, though.

Of course. Egg Dragoon in Gens is one of my all fime favorite bosses in Sonic. Time Eater... Meh, they always experiment in extra battles without substance and effort.

I see that boss as a personification of all the bad moments in the series; from sudden gameplay changes with poor execution, to completely useless side characters who never shut up. (Even if you disable tutorials, which is basically what that is.) It's like after being rewarded with the rest of the game that brings out the Best of Sonic, we have to pay for it by dealing with all the worst aspects rolled into one.

Frankly, it's also eerily prophetic for what happens to the franchise after this game: More bad gameplay, characters and junk. What a way to finish off a beautiful celebration of Sonic's past by giving players a glimpse into his "bright, sparkling" future. 

was kinda nice seeing the Egg Dragoon fight in the way that Eggman probably originally intended it to. I remember reading in Unleashed's Eggman machine bios that he build it as the ultimate fighting machine against sonic or whatever but never accounted for the Werehog when building it originally, which is why it was easily torn apart by Sonic in that form. But in Gens its like Eggman technically has the upperhand that go around

couldn't make it look clean. mufasa fell and got trampled, looks like an accident. mauling simba himself would leave too much evidence and another "accident" would be suspicious.

also doesn't he sic the hyenas on simba anyway

He does tell the hyenas to kill simba. Then the hyenas lie to Scar. Scar tells the pride both the king and crown prince died. He even looks at the hyenas saying I thought you were dead when Simba returned

@Diogenes what if he Stepped on Simba’s Head/throat and choke him to death?

in that case the lion crime scene investigators would surely notice the lack of hoofprints or related trauma and investigate further.

really the point isn't that there would be no possible way for scar to get away with killing him, but that he had ways of getting rid of him without (further) dirtying his hands

@Diogenes If there isn’t a lion who does the police siren. And there isn’t a ticker tape made from grass surrounding the crime scene, I’m gonna be mad.

i mean, half of me absolutely understands sony being sheepish about disney wanting to shoulder the financial burden less. they just got fox (and the related marvel film rights) and had a great box office this year; and yet now they want sony to co-finance the movies (whereas under the current deal sony handles marketing/distribution while marvel studios handles production and gets 5% of the first-dollar gross). i agree with what wraith said in a previous status that they're being greedy in that context

but the fact rothman --of fox marvel fame-- is playing the role in negotiations has the other half of me just laughing

@Milo Plus Disney got 100% of merch sales too.
