@Jovahexeon The Undyne Haha I don't think we count anymore, Mollfie hasn't posted (or possibly even logged in) here in years now XD
But anyway, congrats Indigo and enjoy your day! I'll give you the same advice my Mum gave me, it's sure to be a wonderful experience but it'll be over before you know it, so whenever you think of it or get a minute to breathe, stop, look around, really take stock of the celebration and little details around you and drink in the moment while, well, it's still "the moment" and not a fond memory yet! Best of luck to you both with the day and all that follows!

I do understand that. I guess I don't see a need to remaster it either as it's a gorgeous game that isn't really hurting to be significantly changed (medal hunting aside) and my argument is more about why Colors needs it more. I can see why fans want a collection, though. I can get behind that.
-
It's on PSNow? So it's technically available on relevant hardware, then. It may not be ideal, but my point stands: Sonic Colors does not have this, even. And again, I want to reiterate that it's availability is only half the equation; it's also one of the 'bad' ones, and SEGA is not so dumb that it would put in the R&D into repackaging a game that they know is not going to review well. Sonic Colors was reviewed well, Sonic Colors isn't available on modern hardware, it's been ten years, SEGA needs a safe bet for their efforts. It's time for an upgraded port.
-
Sonic Colors actually makes a load of sense for a remaster. It was a very critically acclaimed game when it released (people talked about how much it broke the 'Sonic Cycle' and whatnot) and holds up rather well, but also desperately needs that graphical boost in the 2020's. It's ten years old, and is not available on anything other than the Wii and DS. I've heard people asking for Unleashed to get ported, but I don't think folks really have considered how much it was thrashed and trashed on release, so no clue why you'd think SEGA would mess with that. Additionally, I was able to download it on my fiancee's Xbox One for $20 and play through it (until I couldn't stand it anymore) so it's not like it's unavailable to consumers on relevant hardware. Colors needs some serious polish in a few areas, but it's art direction is gorgeous, the good faith it restored in the franchise is undeniable and it can only benefit from being brought back into focus, especially after Forces unceremoniously wet the bed and became the latest "bad Sonic game" of the generation. The modern branch of the series needs a pick me up.

How would a "randomizer" mod work for any of the Classic Sonic games (Sonic 1, 2, 3&K, Mania)? My first thought is item boxes and maybe which badniks appear in each Zone, but otherwise I can't think of much.
-
Random stage/act order, maybe.
-
Supah Berry reacted to this

Randomise which zone you go to next for maximum carnage.
SpoilerExtra hard mode: Odds are weighted towards Green Hill

This is kinda sorta randomizing-
-
AWild No.1 washed up gamer reacted to this
-
random level order plus random character per level would make the most sense, i think. you could do monitors but in most cases i don't think it'd make much difference, randomized badniks might be hard to make work due to some needing certain environments to work properly.
-

I've said before that I'd have really liked to have seen a randomiser element in Mania's Encore Mode. Ideally it would have randomised all of the level order (but still start in AIZ and end in TMZ), and that could be accomplished by having the Ruby warp the characters at the end of each act (like it does between PGZ2 and SSZ1). Within the levels, certain Badniks could have been added to a limited randomiser pool with enough forethought put into which ones are interchangeable and what terrain limits were in place. The overall level layouts couldn't be changed, obviously.

Update: this is day 3 of feeling sick, and it's all been a low-grade fever, chills, aches and a sore throat with a cough. Not fun. I'm hoping it doesn't get much worse than this.

I'm already living apart from my fiancee right now so I've got that covered. My family lives in a different state so they're safe from me by default. Doctors say to not take the vaccine while infected. By the time I get over it, I'll already be getting ready for the Wedding.
The worst right now is the sore throat, it's like... worse than strep. I can hardly swallow water without being in pain
-
Dang, that sucks. Are you taking any kind of medicine for the fever or throat? I only took one for fever (because my doctor said it'd be OK) eventhough I didn't had any. I did took Vitamins C and D capsules because I'm low on them anyways, and since they're known for pumping up your imune system, it was a good precaution.

Now for a game of is it early COVID symptoms or seasonal allergies? 😬

A over 3 foot tall anthro hedgehog sure. I feel SonicTeam should really come up with a broad term for the Sonicy alien humanoid animal species they create as they are clearly different from the normal animals or the tiny animals too. I know fans like to use the term mobian, but i don't think SonicTeam uses it.

As an addendum to my post, one specific thing I'd like to thread into the lore is the "four great civilizations" nugget dropped by Sonic Chronicles and have it tied into the reveal at the end of Sonic Riders ZG that the Babylonians were actually aliens. That'd be my scifi way to explain the coexistence of talking animals and humans. The ancient ruins in South Island that depict a race of bird people would be the backdrop for that, and that would be the "first" great civilization, of which Longclaw/Sophocles (since I like the idea of an owl being Sonic's surrogate parent for some dumb reason) is the last remaining descendant. Echidnas would be the fourth and final before Chaos wrecks everything and the emeralds are banished to the Special Stage for Gerald Robotnik to use his special machinery to retrieve one for his experiments. ......y'all got me headcanonizing my own Sonic universe how could you.

How would you improve Knuckles gameplay in 3D games?
Indigo Rush replied to celsowm's topic in Upcoming Sonic Games
Throw me in the camp with those who think Knuckles' digging abilities should be explored a bit more beyond what the Adventure games did. If Knuckles is going to ever be playable in a 3D action game again, I'd like to see him preserve momentum by diving into the ground and drilling across the surface as if he was swimming in a body of water (which is also something I'd like to see return from SA2). I think there's some potential to be had there, especially in conjunction with his usual climbing, punching and gliding abilities. If you've ever played Super Lucky's Tale, you'll know what I'm going for. Basically Lucky's burrow ability, but faster and effective on walls as well as the ground. -
When you say "reimagine/reboot" Sonic, I'm assuming this is meant to run the entire gamut from character designs to storyline of the main game series. To that, I'd say the most important thing is to recognize first that Sonic is much bigger than a stand-alone game franchise, and everything from the movie to the shows to the comics and maybe even the mobile phone games have equal potential to leave a strong first impression on newcomers. From a branding perspective, that's a lot of salivating potential for making money a franchise that transcends generations, but it's equally nightmarish to manage. To just "reboot" the games is one thing, to make a sweeping call that everything ever that stars Sonic doesn't count anymore is most likely going to fall on the deaf ears of the general public who'll say "who cares" and enrage the fans who've spent years of their lives building their understanding of the Sonic series. If we're going to "reboot" it all, get ready for some backlash and confusion. So, we want to reimagine Sonic. If that responsibility fell on my lap, I'd first and foremost establish a living lorebook/continuity bible that explains everything from how Sonic's universe functions to every character's favorite food. Sonic's world needs to be fleshed out so it can be a sturdy launching point for an endless number of stories to tell, as well as give a faithful canvas for fans to create their own stories and characters with. From there, I think it's important to make sure different media forms like the comics and TV shows be written and portrayed in a way that doesn't contradict the games, instead supplementing them to create a sort of expanded universe, if you will. The main thing is to determine if we want to redesign the cast, and to that I'd say not to, or rather not much. The current modern design which incorporates some of Classic Sonic's stature is a great equilibrium to work from. I'd just have it so certain games or other media have the opportunity to fill in more specific details such as fur and shoe texturing, similar to the Movie, just not as radical. The next major task is story, and I think the biggest thing is to take advantage of 30 years of hindsight to recreate the most loved story beats from the series across any continuity, as well as avoid recreating (or heavily modifying) the worst ones. I'm talking moments like Tails saving Sonic at the end of Sonic 2, Eggman brutally defeating Sonic in Archie #175, Sonic and Shadow's "faker?!" quips in SA2, the showdown against Metal in the OVA, Sonic and Knuckles squaring off in... Sonic & Knuckles, that sort of thing. It doesn't have to only come from the game series to find a second life in a rebooted series. Similarly, just because it was in the games, doesn't mean it needs to be revisited. I'd stay far away from incorporating the Black Arms into Shadow's backstory, for instance, and the Deadly Six need a serious retooling. Aside from that, rebooting the series from "square one" with a Sonic 1 or Sonic 2 remake isn't a bad start, but pretty soon we're going to need to be smart with adding more fan favorites into the mix. Eventually we'll need to get back up to par with having the primary cast and tertiary supporting characters on the palette so we can start painting new stories with them. This is possible with the aforementioned hindsight; it'll be much easier to reintroduce the old guard when we've already figured out their personalities and character arcs. Some game stories could even be "re-told" as comic book arcs or TV episodes; or for fun, we could take something like the Storybook series and literally make them into story books. All the character development without any of the half-baked Wii tech demos. Additionally, with the comics and shows picking up the slack, some characters could be introduced in that area and then be incorporated into a major game without having to make another introductory arc to explain everything about them. I'm actually sort of hoping SEGA is going to do this with the IDW comic, as it took off right after Sonic Forces and seems to consider the games prior to that as part of it's canon; and with Tangle and Whisper being playable in the mobile games, there's certainly an opportunity to be had here. From there, you could introduce all new characters or re-incorporate "lost" or "non-canon" characters like the Hooligans or the Freedom Fighters in new, re-imagined ways that would supplement the new series. And that's where I'd start. I didn't mention anything about game design because this just isn't the topic for that, though I definitely have my opinions there. For the most part, I think the series is just fine the way it is, but if afforded the opportunity, I'd vouch for everything I said above.
