It doesn't make much sense that he just suddenly stops running, but I can let it by simply because of the rule of cool. It certainly gets across the idea of Super Sonic being incredibly powerful very well. But where I have to draw the line is Shadow's boosting animation. He already wears hover skates which are "rule of cool" enough as it is (plus he's got all his teleporting shenanigans and everything else), so why does he completely give up on any leg movement at all when he boosts? It's really just a minor pet peeve, but hey that's what this thread is for. I just wish that he kept his infinitely cooler and more unique skating animation over boring flight. Also on a similar note, Sonic's running drift in Unleashed looks way better than his ball drift in Generations. There's a place for both of them though, and I quite like seeing Sonic curl up for brief periods because that's his schtick. I mean he flies when he first meets eggman. if i had to hazard a Guess, he's literally using chaos control to boost out of his shoes... and then says screw it and enters a higher speed boosting his whole body? I dunno its weird 10 hours ago, Splash the Otter said: A (relatively) recent one for me is people making "weak" jokes about Infinite. He isn't weak, he just had the misfortune of going up against the most OP character in the series. I think its because people think he was disappointing. Less about him being weak. Like folks saying its no use, just a meme. 3 hours ago, Foxthefox1000 said: Infinite is actually solidly in the upper tier of powerful characters. The only reason Sonic even beat him was through the power of friendship and teamwork. Same for Eggman at the end. He's not. He gained no powers that could stop anyone from just... punching him in the face. The story tries to bend itself to make him look strong, but in in the end characters like silver have to just forget they have powers and others have to be jailed or even dissapear for him to be threatening. That doesn't indicate a threat, that indicate someone wrote a villain who should have been a behind the scenes manipulation kind of guy. But they made him a big huge bad, and wrote a bad story by even sonic standards to make him look...well attempt to make him look threatening. To contribute to the thread, them not using blaze's world. Use that shit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foxthefox1000 21 Posted February 20 Eh, I dunno. Being above Sonic consistently enough even to the point of needing help to beat him in the end? People just exaggerate him being weak for the meme. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Splash the Otter 476 Posted February 20 Here's a new one: the fact that two of my favorite characters will never be in the Modern games. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
romeo 0 Posted September 27 Ok imma say it right now, sega needs to just make the official pairings right now and dont change em at all. These shipping wars are pissing me off, im getting harrassed for the ships i like, i can make the official pairings right now, hell i can probably make them right now and explain each. And fuck canon at this point. Sonic & Sally - This doesnt even need an explanation, the two been friends since they were 5 and been there for each other when eggman took over and they grew naturally over the years. Thats how you develop a natural relationship Tails & Cosmo - This one is tradgetic. The girl died and kissed tails as a ghost. They grew naturally it works i like it. Tails & Cream - Idk its personal preference but i dont think people would be mad if this happened Shadow & Amy - Ok first off sonamy is a crack pairing. Sonic sees her as a little sister but amy is always tryna ride his leg 24/7 it cant work, its like if naruto and sasuke fused together then hes just as rude as sasuke but acts like naruto and is shipped with sakura, thats sonic and amy. Shadow and amy on the other hand, Amy is the reincarnation of Maria, she made shadow turn good and truly replicated maria to remember his promise to her. Thats flag one. Flag two, amy started to fall in love with sonic when she used tarot cards to find her true love which appeared to be sonic, i think she actually saw shadow but she mistaken him for sonic, she did this shadow in sa2, silver in 06, it could be possible. Flag 3, i think the shadow + amy = silver theory is correct. Knuckles & Rouge - They flirt with each other all the damn time and rouge actually gave knuckles the emeralds in sa2 and smiled and winked at him, its clear shes attracted to him Silver & Blaze - idc if sonic 06 isn't canon anymore, sega cant even maintain their own canon. Sonic 06 is all the proof you need, but sega refuses to use blaze in a game so we cant see them interact in this new timeline but team sonic racing is out and they look to be getting along very well There i just made the official roster that can work and makes the most sense now take notes dammit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Your Vest Friend 14,985 Posted September 27 They've walked back on pretty much all romance bar Amy having a crush on Sonic (and even that's somewhat fading), so the canon the games will go with is no ships whatsoever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This , I personally don't think there is anything inherently wrong with romance. Infact even things like MLP figured out how to do it fine, even LGBTQ stuff. But I can understand sega being weary given uh the bad comic book stuff, and them just wanting ... inoffensive non changing branding. Amy mildly likes sonic and rouge flirts with knuckles and shadow on occasion... and that's it. Which may sound boring, and I might agree. However, that conversation leads into how sega is handling the franchise in general in comparison to its peers and not just video games but infinite lifespan branded multimedia IP for kids and young teens in general and how its being left behind and it may have chose the wrong time to try and be static. And that Conversation, while interesting isn't fit for this thread... or at least this topic of conversation. Though its one that will be more and more pertinent as time goes on , especially with that film coming up Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Splash the Otter 476 Posted September 27 A big one for me recently is Sega's dedication to ruining the universe they created. Stuff like Two Worlds, the Modern/Classic split, portrayal of characters like Tails and Shadow, money not existing and so on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Mechano 7,263 Posted September 29 On 9/27/2019 at 11:33 AM, Splash the Otter said: money not existing and so on. Wait, does money no longer canonically exist in Sonic's world? I always thought rings were the Sonic world's currency. You buy stuff with them, gamble with them in the various casino zones, etc. Did some official source say money didn't exist?

Ivo-goji 122 Posted September 29 There are dollar bills in SA2 and gold coins in Sonic Riders, so yeah money definitely exists in the real Sonic universe. Don't know about post-Colors Diet Coke Sonic universe. The Sonic X comic apparently has money not existing on Sonic's nameless planet so maybe this has something to do with that. 1 Dr. Mechano reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
