Social NintenZone Social 5 - Thanks, Everyone

[Schnee117]

Uhhhhhhhh

Mistakes were made.

 

[Metal Shop X]

So I watched some gameplay of Injustice 2 online.
And the game seem to be exactly like I remember Injustice 1. By that, I mean that zoning is going how this game is going to play by 70-80% of the cast.
Don't get me wrong, I am not against zoning (except if I play against someone who zone like ****ing jesus), but I was expecting NRS to make the game more varied when it come to playstyle. Especially if the old character have still the same overpowered move from the first one with little to no balance.

 

[WeirdChillFever]

I'm just gonna recreate Nabbit

DAN THE MAN GIVES NO ****S ABOUT YOUR WITCH *******

Uhhhhhhhh

For the game's sake, I hope it's really good.
If it's even mediocre I can imagine it being decried as the worst thing ever solely because of the character creator.

So yeah, please be good.

90 degrees. 90 ****ing Degrees.

Where's the freezer when you need it?

 

[Cutie Gwen]

More gameplay

[Wario Bros.]

Hope I can make Blonic, Blails, & Bluckles.

DAN THE MAN GIVES NO ****S ABOUT YOUR WITCH *******

Uhhhhhhhh

But can you create Bubsy with it?

 

[Deleted member]

Soon my friend, soon.

He'll be there to force everyone to buy a Sega Saturn.

Oh, just noticed your title. Happy Birthday.

DAN THE MAN GIVES NO ****S ABOUT YOUR WITCH *******

Uhhhhhhhh

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRO-

....wait a tic, that ain't Bubsy.

The seven character types each come with their own special ability, which are:

Bear — Blows away enemies with a homing attack
Bird — Flies high with double jump abilities
Cat — Keeps one ring after being hit
Dog — Restarts with five rings after the player dies
Hedgehog — Collects rings when getting damaged
Rabbit — Has longer invincible time after receiving damage
Wolf — Automatically draws in rings when near them
Beyond choosing one of these seven types, players can customize the look of their character, including outfitting them with hundreds of accessories and costuming options unlocked while playing through the game. Each customized Hero will have a grappling hook as a means of platforming, and the characters can be customized further via Wispons, which are a new take on the Color Powers from Sonic Colors. The Wispons are unique gadgets that can be used both as weapons and for traversing through levels.

[Opossum]

I will say this though. I'm glad they're not making the create a character hero be incredibly overpowered. They don't even seem to be on par with Sonic himself. Instead they resort to gadgets.


So yeah, I think that's pretty neat at least.

 

[AwesomeAussie27]

Oh, just noticed your title. Happy Birthday.

Actually, my birthday was several weeks ago.

But thanks, my title does need to be updated.

Hope I can make Blonic, Blails, & Bluckles.

Hell yeah.

I can finally make Coldsteel the Hedgeheg too.

My First Response: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXsSgzKJ0fY

My Second Response: I am interested in terms of gameplay, but I'm getting Fire Emblem My Unit vibes from this and I don't like that. Maybe better as a separate mode? IDK will have to wait for more info.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Honestly, this is a neat idea. There's a reason Original the Character is a meme, so the fans can go nuts
Maybe even bring Mighty back if the Hedgehog body suits him

 

[Erureido]

Seeing how we reached the 800th page, it reminds me of a dream I had last night where this thread was closed after it reached the 800th page, and the final post there showed some statistics about the thread.

Yeah, quite a weird dream.

Uhhhhhhhh

This is literally the oc maker. The game will probably fine, but this gonna get some nice hearty laughs out there. I know I'm ready for the worst...I mean best.

 

[WeirdChillFever]

Yeah I think remaking characters is a great way to use this function.
Might make Blaze, for example

-remembers saying Happy Birthday to you weeks ago-

 

[wedl!!]

How did SEGA never think of making a character creator before now? that's like, perfect for the series.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

So you play as your OC but your thing is always being the grappling hook guy/girl?

Rad Spencer: Bionic Commando anyone?

 

[Ivander]

Hey guys, I'm awake now. What's happe...

And I thought I was hectic after waking up.

 

[Deleted member]

I find this both scary and genius at the same time
It makes sense considering the fanbase but you shouldn't give them this kind of power
At least Sonichu and Coldsteel will finally be canon

 

[redfeatherraven]

DAN THE MAN GIVES NO ****S ABOUT YOUR WITCH *******

Uhhhhhhhh

I'm still sitting here flabbergasted that Larry wasn't full of ****.

 

[Aurane]

DeviantArt is going to go ****ing wild with this Custom Hero thing.

Now everyone's OC is canon.

 

[Chrono.]

SEGA cashing in on the Sonic OC fad makes total sense.

Dragon Ball also had a similar OC fad and look where that went with Xenoverse.

Also I've always liked character creators so, yeah. I'm on board here, I just hope the rest of the game is good.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

SEGA should make a deal with Nintendo to get Pikachu's tail as a customization for the Switch version

 

[WeirdChillFever]

Oh wait this also messes with (head)canon

.....


.....


.....


*Adds "Nabbit saves the Sonic Universe" to headcanon*

 

[Champ Gold]

Congratulations, Sega.

How does it feel to open Pandora's box?
How does it feel to cause the apocalypse?

"Nothing Personnell, kid"

 

[Wario Bros.]

But seriously though, I hope SEGA knows what they're doing and not have this bite them in the butt.

 

[Coricus]

How did SEGA never think of making a character creator before now? that's like, perfect for the series.

I'm sure they thought of it, it's just something that's a ton of effort. Probably partially explains why this game took half a decade for the Japanese team to make after Generations.

The general reaction seems split between cautious excitement and people being horrified just because it's OCs. Hm. Better than I could have expected, I guess.

One thing I will note is that other than the stereotypical hedgehog, this isn't usual OC territory. Most OCs past the initial Sonic and Shadow recolors split off into Tails and Knuckles recolors and this doesn't touch that. All of them except Wolf and Dog are technically retread territory, but with Team Sonic to trace what self respecting OC creator would bother, right? Maybe people will actually spring for something a little more creative with this. . .or they'll just make only the hedgehog, I guess.

 

[Aurane]

I just realized we might be able to create a Sonic-style Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. Oh geez this is gonna be interesting.

Just... For gods sake, let the game be good...

Things seem kinda civil on the Youtube side of things.

At least the comments just seem to be in good fun.

Tho I did expect a huge amount of dislikes lol

 

[Cutie Gwen]

Honestly the best thing about this is the fact different species have different abilities, allows experimentation and replayability

I could make the whole Fazbear Crew, somewhat. :V

Only Bear and Bird look good in terms of their gameplay bonus. The others seem to be for those who aren't exactly great at the game.

 

[WeirdChillFever]

Characters that are now canon to be the saviours of the Sonic universe imo:

-The Big Bad Wolf
-Angry Birds/Bad Piggies
-Nabbit
-Brash the friggin Bear Yomi's Biggest Fan

 

[AreJay25]

I never thought I'd live to see the day where Deviantart became real.

 

[redfeatherraven]

So regarding the Custom Hero.

Personally, kind of hyped. Gameplay looks at minimum interesting, as long as they don't botch the rest of the game.

But speaking more broadly, oh god lock your doors the OCs are coming.

And still more hyped for Mania either way. I need Mirage Saloon Zone in my life.

I am interested in terms of gameplay, but I'm getting Fire Emblem My Unit vibes from this and I don't like that.

Just wait until they introduce the petting minigame.
