First hygiene, then diets.
Hopefully it'll have good legs. The weekend box office results could've been better, but if it keeps itself steady in theaters it can still do well despite not living up to initial expectations. Audience response has also been rather positive, so that could also help its continued sales if that turns into good word of mouth.Man despite being a good year for movies this year so far. Why is it all my favorites haven't been doing so well?
First Shazam!, then Missing Link and now Godzilla 2...Meanwhile Avengers: Endgame I found to be underwhelming but what makes up for it is its third act and final battle.
That said the only movie that has relatively done well so far this year that I've liked is How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World. Apparently too Detective Pikachu surprisingly hasn't done well granted I haven't seen it but I'm still surprised given you'd think Pokemon's popularity would guarantee it being at least a billion dollar hit.
why is chic-fil-a the god of fast food
To my knowledge yes. Its only made 394 million against an 150 million budget. Not a bomb per say but sounds like an underperformance.
What a barbarian. Using the charred remains of his own kind to bludgeon his enemies.
The power of God and Cows begging for their life.
Chick Fil A sandwiches are godly with teriyaki sauce on them.
what could you have possibly misread it for that made sense with crackers as the word being described
I didn't get that far. I thought you said autistic. Lol sorry. I lost my glasses a long time ago, so reading is kind of hard.
Ah, I see you too have watched Shaymay's Sonic Spitball series.When I think of Forces I think of another game.
Think back to Generations, now imagine that with the level design cut in half lengthwise, and with much of what exploration was available beforehand completely neutered. Also, make half of it 2D, and have the platforming be blockier than many Mario titles. Then axe much of Sonic's versatile moveset and options from Generations, including the Drift of all things, and make his acceleration the equivalent of Lost World but with the run button to switch removed (leaving an awkward jolt in its place between binary acceleration 'gears'). Also, as explained by the OP in the Tweet I posted, automated run sections in forces take all control away from you meaning that you can't Boost, not to mention the addition of splines to snap you on the path at all times heavily restricting freedom of movement.
All that after a 4-year development cycle.
If you can still find ways to have a blast with it then that just means you're more forgiving and yield a stronger will than I. Wish I could be like that with Sonic Heroes (I want to like that game...but I hate its slippery, bottomless pit happy guts).
While true, SEGA themselves don't seem to have a problem with it. If you search up SEGA and DMCA claims look at the links you can get:

The Classic formula is all about Level design that's built around momentum, Sonic is affected by the terrain and has those effects exaggerated when rolling and there's generally a multi-tier design in order to offer suitable environments to make use of Sonic's movement and abilities.
It's not for everyone, there are people who prefer the way the Rush series does things for instance.
The only 3D Boost game I kinda liked was Generations. I can see where you're coming from with the high-speed thrill of being able to Boost through levels with a degree of invulnerability, but after a while, you've gotta make some major changes that improve the overall experience. We're four Boost games in and there are still some fundamental problems with this formula.
One of those problems is its effect on level design. 3D platforming is largely an afterthought to the Boost formula's design and that becomes apparent whenever the gameplay steps away from streamlined Arcady high-speed spectacle and makes platforming the focus.
Whatever flow the Boost gameplay establishes with its consistently fast-paced nature falls apart due to how clunky and choppy the controls are at slower speeds and how rudimentary the level design shows itself to be when it's not tailored towards moving as fast as possible.
Shaymay explains a bit of this pretty well in this timestamp (so you don't have to watch the whole thing)
Life systems in older console games is a holdover from Arcades, but yeah, say if you **** up on a boss starting from the beginning is punishment enough, whereas making the player spend 5-10 minutes replaying an entire level is can potentially be a waste of their time and end up being more frustrating than fun.
This is actually part of the reason my responses are so late. I also just don't really have the time.
Lol...yeah.
I got the game as a Christmas gift year of release so you know I had to spend some time with it. It felt very similar to my experience with '06 in that both games damn near gave me a migraine.
Werehog from Unleashed was pretty close.
I never watch critical videos on Sonic, and I always thought automation in Sonic levels was...kinda necessary. I mean, am sure no one wants to get vertigo or something from running on a loop, or fall off the loop so easily, especially when over a bottomless pit. Bottomless pit or not, I can imagine trying to control Sonic to get through a loop or corkscrew to be frustrating. That said, I also don't think the momentum based physics are that big of a deal. Sure, they were great during the Genesis days, but they aren't always necessary to make a good Sonic game. In any event, I go with my own opinion, not others who even make videos about things Sonic related. Plus, I like the boost, and think it should stay.
Implying you know what homophobia tastes like.
It tastes awful.
Theres a LOT of things that taste awful, praline. :/
Like a bad fart.

I'll be closing the lobby after one or two more games, as I need to head off to bed. GGs to both of you, as well as

's R.O.B.religious values or not those sandwiches are ****ing bomb
my teeth reject your advice
IMO, it's safer to look at it from a cautious optimistic way. If you'd like Banjo to be in. Try to at least remain some sort of doubt in your mind so that if it doesn't happen. It goes over better then if you thought it was 100% real. But if it does, then you're all the more happy if you have that thought in the back of your mind.
This has been my theory for a while now.
I definitely agree on not getting too hyped before any actual announcement, but this is quickly becoming a perfect storm and it feels almost impossible to not get pulled in.
It's what I get for trying to go for fancy footstool stuff.seeing
My robots (outside of Metroid, of course) are rusty, but I'll give the punchy guys credit where credit is due. I played Mac the last time we did Arenas here, so it felt nice seeing someone else do him justice for a change.me when i finally pwn

even if it was only a few games (the code wasn't posted on Discord, so it took me a while to find it/finally join).
if you know how to work doc i honestly believe he's better than mario or luigi
