Although I personally don't care about Fire and Ice, I hope it isn't a failure.

Mainly because Sega is one of the few third-party supporters Nintendo has, and it's sad how almost every Nintendo-exclusive it makes ends up failing.

The fact that everyone is blowing their load before E3 is kinda funny to me.

So apparently The Trashman was offered to play Mario but turned the offer down, the more you know. : ^ )

LOL Are 90's Kids truly that bad that they warrant having the mention of "worst fandom"?

But what about Roblox?

What's a Roblox?

The fact that everyone is blowing their load before E3 is kinda funny to me.

SE probably has FFVIIR info in store if they showed 2.8, don't know what else Netherrealm could do, but SEGA's merely showing an appetizer, something that we don't really care about, but it's to get us ready for the main course, No ****ing way are they only having Boom this E3

They don't want anything to leak out.

Hell I believe they leak out stuff on purpose.

Look at Watch Doge 2. Let's be honest, I don't think anyone would care before or now

 

[Schnee117]

don't know what else Netherrealm could do

They'll have an actual gameplay demo.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

They'll have an actual gameplay demo.

I meant in terms of games to announce

And it's glorious.

In which case nothing because Netherrealm exclusively make Injustice and Mortal Kombat atm.

tbh the idiots going "THIS IS WHY WE NEED SA3"need to get a slap to the face. Why the **** would the anniversary game be confirmed before constant teasing? Sonic fanbase proving yet again they're ****ing morons. This is worse than when they hacked SEGA, leaked everything Sonic Generations had to offer and whined "SKY SANCTUARY ISN'T YELLOW ENOUGH!"

...They didn't hack SEGA.

The Sonic Generations Anniversary Demo had unused files that dataminers found. It was a timed demo that only let you play Green Hill Act 1 for a few days. However, dataminers were able to access Act 2 as it was also in the files, fully functional (this is because SEGA released a second demo closer to the release of the game that opened Act 2 and didn't have a time restriction, and had improved Classic Sonic gameplay compared to the first demo). Stuff like the stage list and the appearance of Wisps and Skills, were also things that had files in the demo, and they just happened to find those too and they were posted in a spoiler tag on Sonic Retro. And SEGA went on to confirm every single stage and boss before the game released anyway.

This is an absurd double standard to have. Nintendo data-mining and leaking is fine, but when Sonic fans do it (accidentally no less, as the main thing they wanted was just to try out Modern Sonic which was FULLY FUNCTIONAL in the demo's files, just locked away for no reason. They also wanted to remove the timer), they're the scum of the Earth?

And you really shouldn't let YouTube comments reflect an entire fanbase.

Nah, it's missing the Smash fanbase.

Far worse any of the other actual fanbases there ("feminist" isn't a fandom).

Well we could get Kombat Pack 3 aka the Story Pack but I don't see that happening.

Fanbases are a double edged sword.

They can inspire you and can show you their creativity and be awesome people but can end up being the biggest pieces of idiotic trash

Sky Sanctuary not being yellow enough, now that's a ****ing classic.

I hope the next Sanic is worth the wait.

There are so many things on that list that can't be even called fandoms (phobics, haters, etc.).

EDIT: Never mind, noticed that it says "groups" as well.

In case people were wondering if the delay on Fire & Ice actually did anything.

It says "fandoms/groups", so feminists being there isn't wrong.

And yes, the Smash fanbase is also not that pleasant, though I'd say that about video game fans overall.

True.

I won't lie, however, that the anime fanbase did stop me from getting into anime for quite a while.

Even now, it bothers me that fans often get ridiculed just for liking anime, all because of the loud and obsessive fans.

There's plenty of interesting works out there that people miss on because they have a wrong and/or stereotyped perception of the medium.

Bro, you didn't remember what happen last year.

This Saturday will be the 1 Year Anniversary where Roy and Ryu were leaked HARD. And people got absolutely mad. Hell a lot of people threw threats at guys like RandomTBush just for spoiling it.

Hell, they still are keep most Mario Maker costumes secrets. Data Mining for spoilers were never good.

Especially considering the Smah devs learned from earlier and fixed it.

Imagine if Cloud was leaked. Think about that

 

[Solfiner]

The fact that people think every anime or manga is generic shounen or ecchi hurts my soul

In that case, I misunderstood it, I was told it was hacked. Whining about Sonic 3's sprite, green eyes and Sky Sanctuary not being yellow enough is absolute bull**** though and you know it

Brotherhood is better

Laura Bailey is in the original, and it has the best child acting in existence

She's in Brotherhood as well
Also, gross, again, you're watching the dub
FMA's dubs are good but: original audio>dubs

I like Brotherhood more than the anime original but both are definitely worth a watch.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

weeb. I want to watch both so I can decide for myself which is better.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

I think I found my new favourite twitter account

Weeaboo this, weeaboo that. It's just the thing that will never die when it comes to liking anything Japanese related.

Words can't describe how I need to facepalm when people do such posts for getting the attention a troll desires.

Some were mad, but a lot were happy too.

I just don't think there is any reason to single out a specific fanbase for it.

Especially when there is a difference between how it happened.

When the Ryu/Roy stuff leaked, TBrush took a bit of a teasing attitude about it on Twitter and was clearly seeking attention. He got a lot of followers out of it, and tons of news outlets were covering him.

When the Generations leaks happened, it was because fans wanted to remove the silly timer so they could at least practice the first level of Sonic Generations as much as they like and compare it to the Classics and what not. Forum members on Sonic Retro (well known for having close ties with SEGA and having a lot of talented programmers on board) were the ones behind it, and just ended up discovering this stuff by accident. They posted everything in a spoiler though, and it wasn't so widespread because they didn't TRY to spread the info, not like what TBrush did. I know, because I remember being there when it was happening.

Also, the "SKY SANCTUARY ISN'T YELLOW ENOUGH" thing was also LITERALLY two random forum members on Sonic Retro, and everyone gave them **** for it. It is hardly reflective of the fanbase either.

-------

Also, something I noticed - there was no Madeon song in that Sonic Boom trailer.

So the Madeon song is for the real 25th Anniversary game.

 

[Autumn ♫]

I'd always recommend watching FMA 2003 first since Brotherhood assumes you watched the first one, judging by how fast the first few episodes go.

But, I do like Brotherood better even though I never finished it.

 

[Ura]

This Saturday will be the 1 Year Anniversary where Roy and Ryu were leaked HARD. And people got absolutely mad. Hell a lot of people threw threats at guys like RandomTBush just for spoiling it.

Well actually they were leaked twice. Once was the datamining leak on April 15th and the other was the actual photo leak on June 13th so the 1 Year Anniversary would be on Monday.

 

[Solfiner]

Nah, it goes by the manga pace which is pretty much exactly the same as Brotherhood.

Nah, it's missing the Smash fanbase.

Far worse any of the other actual fanbases there ("feminist" isn't a fandom).

The Smash fanbase on a casual level is MARGINALLY better than the Sonic fanbase. And I don't mean that because of the Sonic Mary Sues and perverted stuff, that stuff doesn't even factor into my bad fandom rating as no matter how cringey it is it's still subjective and you can -usually- avoid it. No, I say that because while both the Smash fanbase and Sonic fanbase both complain about LITERALLY everything, the Smash fanbase at least has enough motivation behind their complaints to show that in their own twisted way, they're doing it because they care about the series. The Sonic fanbase as I have stumbled upon it has essentially given up on the series. They are ONLY there to mope and complain, with no hope and no dedication for anything.

I'll concede that once you enter the realm of competitive play that simply adding that element alone inherently brings things like sexism and tier obsession that pushes Smash to being a bit worse than Sonic, though. As far as I can tell that's more a fault of competitive environment attitudes as a whole, as freaking chess is segregated by gender and many other games also have people insisting on only using the top 3 characters.

Nope, casual Smash is just as bad, if not worse.

At least you can somewhat understand why competitive players get angry and salty. They have money on the line.

When a casual player is hating on people who play a character or whatever, there is literally no excuse.

Not to mention the speculation dictatorship.

There's also the fact Sonic is a single-player focused franchise. You have no reason to actually interact with the fanbase, its tertiary to enjoying the game. With Smash though, you have to interact with them.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

But when I think about it, the 90's kids do have a point. That "muh nostalgia" dictates that most TV shows that pander to SJW's and don't push the limits for kids shows are ****.

Which is bull**** itself.

It does? Maybe the filler was just that good then, because it seemed to me that

[KingofPhantoms]

Tbh I've always thought most people exaggerate how prominent the worst parts of fandoms are.

Like, they're definitely there, but I don't see how any of them are bad enough for people to judge every single member of them on the spot, or consider it something that interferes with their daily life, for as much of it as they may spend on the Internet.

Then again that list did have "Anti-fans/haters" on a very high spot, which I very much agree with.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Because as I said, the Sky Sanctuary thing was LITERALLY two members of Sonic Retro complaining about it. And everyone else gave them **** for it.

What I meant is how it's not helping. I'm a Sonic fan and know quite a few, they don't care about green eyes, they just want fun. Johnny's one of the biggest Sonic fans I've seen, and he's the nicest guy I've seen. By going "**** THIS ANNIVERSARY GAME WE NEED SATHREEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" for a harmless spinoff is toxic. Especially when Heroes, 06 and Unleashed could count as Adventure games iirc

Eh, I suppose there's a point there. I mostly just lump Sonic, Pokemon, and Smash into a single indistinct blob because they all have similar attitudes, though, so I guess there's not much point in my even trying to determine what's worse.

Speculation dictatorship did burn me pretty bad, though. I can't even bring up the only character I want without being worried people are going to jump down my throat telling me how much I suck. I still do it, I just tend to stick a ton of disclaimers on it in the hopes that it'll quell the flames. And I wasn't even the one who brought up my character and got chewed out for it, I just saw it happen to tons of other people and realized there simply was no tolerance for them in the fandom.

But it's also such an incredibly small minority that it's not worth paying attention to. People blowing it out of proportion is the real issue, IMO. Don't go saying "the Sonic fanbase said this" when it was literally two individuals.
