Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

[Burruni]

I can see it honestly, when ever Amy's in danger he does seem visibly upset. The official bio for Amy also states he cares for her.

I was probably a bit harsher than I should've been in how I put it....
But I just never saw something more than friendship.
Though it's better defended than cramming Knuckles & Rouge together.

Edit:

Also Amy isn't obsessive or a stalker, at least not when portrayed correctly.

Yo.
It may be that Sonic Adventure was what I go back to with Amy's character.
But.

Double Edit: Actual lines.
I know your favorite color is that shade of blue (Wouldn't mind painting myself blue for you)
I do understand the feelings of a persian cat (The Sphinx looked so cute. I had to shave it)
Sweet Sweet, you're so sweet. There's nowhere to run.
He reminds me of parsley when he's standing there all alone (Makes me wanna be his specialty)
You probably need me just as much as I need you.

Holy butts, this is awesome.
Those models look amazing

That is also the OVA where Robotnik casually has a hostile takeover of NotAmerica just to send a message and forces said girl to be his bride.
Best Robotnik.

Actually I was referring to Sally.

They had every Sonic but the one that was actually still running on TV at the time.

 

[Coricus]

To be honest, I didn't even know Sonic the Hedgehog had a video game/was a video game character until I saw pictures in Nintendo Power a year or two after I watched reruns of AoStH on Toon Disney.

I'm a sucker for Road Runner cartoons, so that show is a guilty pleasure of mine. The Opening theme and Robotnik's theme are nostalgia trips.

I went a while thinking Kirby was just a really weird cartoon character, TBH.

I remember seeing the OVA & SM VHS tapes at Blockbuster when I was younger and wondering who all those characters on the covers were. Is that some sort of red Australian mouse? What the heck is a Metal Sonic? Why is there a girl hanging out with Sonic/Tails?

LOL my first exposure to Knuckles and a whole bunch of other Sonic characters was Sonic X because I had only played Sonic 2 before watching it. hadn't the faintest clue as a kid who most of the characters were, and they may as well have been OCs for all I knew.

Nice to know I wasn't the only one who spent much of my childhood oblivious, even if in my case it was a bit worse because I knew even LESS about any other video games in existence at that age.

And I was, like, 7 at the time.

Oh god the crowd reactions to the character buffs and nerfs are great.

Early feb release then?

The technology behind it never ceases to amaze me.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Another point against Sonic Heroes.

As if it didn't have enough already.

7 and 1/2 hours

 

[Burruni]

7 and 1/2 hours

I was referring to the characters going live for download.
If they're ready to go like THIS...
V-Day was a late estimate.

 

[Chrono.]

So Corrin and Bayo will be shown?

Also aren't Chandelure and the others supposed to be shown today as well?

 

[SuperMii3D]

You beat me to the punch with that quick edit of yours. Im assuming that by next week we can have these characters.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Well it is January 30th where I am so a quick release isn't off the card entirley.

 

[Chrono.]

I don't think they'll release now, but a release date is looking likely.

 

[Burruni]

"We SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAID Februrary so to not make liars out of us they'll be available at 12:00am JST on February 1st."

 

[NintenZ]

Chris is a Gary Stu though, perfect abilities, check, everyone likes him no matter what, check, the world revolves around him seemingly, check, knows about everything, check.

The show should've been called Chris X if you ask me.

 

[SuperMii3D]

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Im not trusting this, but thoughts?

They'll come as soon as we get playable Octolings.

 

[Frostwraith]

After almost catching up with Durarara!! last night, I realized once more how much I love this series, if only for the fact it has a cast of really messed up characters.

The story can be confusing as hell, though. There's always a lot happening at once (in the same time frame of the narrative), the perspective shifts every so often (the narrator is always one of the many, many characters) and the story isn't told in a very straightforward way as a result.

It's definitely a one of a kind series and hard to pinpoint a genre for it.

I don't think they'll release now, but a release date is looking likely.

The fact they're showing off the characters in the stream is likely an opportunity for them to announce their release date.

As for when they will be released, I'd say the earliest possibility would be sometime the upcoming week.

 

[Yomi's Biggest Fan]

Another point against Sonic Heroes.

As if it didn't have enough already.

Another point against the game: Because we're Sonic Heroes.

Makes me cringe every time.

I thought you learned after last time Nikki. . .

EDIT tweet didn't fully load. So at least she has data to back herself up this time. . .

Well, the code is likely real, might not be necessarily squid sisters tho.

She can't hear you over the attention she's getting.

Well, at least I'll get to see more gameplay of them.

Still waiting for them to release. ​

If this live stream is anything to go off of, they shouldnt take too long. Theyre already in a playable state.

 

[Tree Gelbman]

In before someone says they'll surprise us with a final final final final ultimate DLC character after showing Bayo and Corrin.

 

[ChikoLad]

I was probably a bit harsher than I should've been in how I put it....

Though it's better defended than cramming Knuckles & Rouge together.

>Using a character theme written by an external artist to say how a character is rather than the actual in-game actions of said character.

Smashboards characterisation talks go to a whole 'nother level, yo.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

I'm guessing they've been playable since December but need bug testing and balancing.

 

[ChikoLad]

Sonic Heroes is a good game, just it wasn't really going for story and characterisation.

 

[Champ Gold]

Don't forget "Let's show them the true power of Teamwork"

 

[MainJPW]

Sonic Heroes is a good game, just it wasn't really going for story and characterisation.

That's honestly subjective. The game itself could've been a lot better than what it ended up being.

I guess reactions of fear ought to have more than one word? Mmmkay.

 

[ChikoLad]

Nope. "Good" and "Bad" are objective statements.

It's got flaws, but none of them are big enough to really call it a bad game.

I'm not saying it's fantastic or anything - like I said, it's got noticeable flaws - but it's reasonably well made and was a nice step on after SA2 (which I would say is the worse of the two, honestly).

 

[Bedoop]

Is there a stream for the Niconico?
I wanna see me some Corrin gameplay

 

[MainJPW]

Nope. "Good" and "Bad" are objective statements.

Right, right. Whoops.

It's got flaws, but none of them are big enough to really call it a bad game.

Depends on the version. From what I've seen the PS2 and Xbox versions have some major game breaking glitches like poor collision detection and frame rate issues. Of course that's more of a problem with the engine they used to port the game.

I'm not saying it's fantastic or anything - like I said, it's got noticeable flaws - but it's reasonably well made and was a nice step on after SA2 (which I would say is the worse of the two, honestly).

I mostly agree on that front. One of the big issues with the game stems from the shallow battle system.

Too many of the enemies you encounter require Sonic's Blue Tornado to disable them before you can do damage, and Tails' character-throw is basically a homing attack that does no damage, and Knuckles' punching moves aren't too fun or varied. There's pretty much virtually no variety to the battles. They introduce maybe two things early on that can change them up a tiny bit, and then never vary from those few concepts throughout the entire game, instead choosing to "increase difficulty" by adding more of the same things at one time.

You are 19 21 years old and wasted your life. This is perfect reward that every loser deserves.

But jokes aside, it's not that bad. If not, still less BS than Miiverse. The nerve of that community to warn you for saying "stupid" yet poorly drawn doodles (Not those doodles you're thinking about) gets a free pass. I wonder if those users evolved beyond doing that, but it's too good to be true since Miiverse is the embodiment of immaturity.

Watching Jojo with my friend. VERY fun! Also, when is the stream? I'm bad in time zones, but it's 1:30 AM fr Europe, right?
