ASFAB. All Sonic Fans are Bad

Hey, I am one of the more reasonable Sonic fans out there. You never see me complain about momentum physics.

 

[osby]

Sonic fans be like "Grrr, no momentum" and then fail their physics class.

Sonic fans will see an 18-wheeler crash into an orphanage after losing steering control and go "this momentum slaps!"

wtf, Gohan Blanco is real?!

 

[MooMew64]

Sonic fans and Sonic YTers reciting every verb and noun they can think of that sounds video game designer-ey so they can sound like they know what on earth they're talking about:

Fun fact: The "Craft" in "Minecraft" is meant to be a reference to Warcraft/Starcraft rather than crafting mechanics.

We're going full circle.

Minecraft RTS needs to have an announcer as hammy as the Halo Wars announcer when selecting “ALL UNITS!”

I like how Sonic fans keep saying "FANS ARE PASSIONATE" when talking about the fangames like the official devs aren't lol.

Like dude, an official dev can be just as passionate, if not more so. Just be honest and say what you really mean: "I like fangames 'cause they're free stuff and cater to my personal nostalgia".

Fans know better than the devs sadly. Think about it, Sonic Mania was nothing but a fan game and it's the best one since gens. Hire fans lol

Actually, the maximum momentum in relativistic physics trivially infinite.

You outed yourself as someone who doesn't understand true Momentum. You'll never make a truly great Sonic game (aka unfinished tech demos using Boost game assets).

Wait...

Then THEY become DEVS

OFFICIAL, CORPORATE, DEVS

AND ONLY FANS KNOW BEST

THEREFORE

MANIA BAD

To be serious, the video game industry is simply not somewhere you can keep working for years unless you love games. The working conditions are that harsh.

The idea that developers aren't "real" fans just because they have to put bread on the table, needs to die.

Where did the momentum discussion even come from

They're not, if I don't like the game then the devs should be fired and executed

and despite what others would say, it’s best to not recast him just because he passed. Also someone on Twitter recommended Yelena as an MCU Thunderbolts member…not against the idea

I would like to see Yelena interact more with Kate Bishop in the future.

Anyways, I do recall that Wyatt Russell who played John Walker in the Falcon & Winter Soldier series said that he is open to return to the MCU, so perhaps the Thunderbolts might be that opportunity.

Sonic Frontiers discourse.

What on earth is this game?!

 

[Guh-Huzzah!]

So, that Cuphead Show season 2 teaser. ...I am insane or did I just hear Jack McBrayer-

 

[MooMew64]

How many fans would spend money on these fan games, that's what I wanna know.

And how many fangames actually match anything remotely close to official quality? Honest question, because 9 times out of 10 fan projects feel like fan projects and as a result they either have inherent jank or are unfinished. Usually, it's because the devs don't have the time, or maybe sometimes they just got completely burnt out when they realized passion and "being a cool dev" doesn't put food on the table and working on a video game that will take them 5+ years just to get out of an aplha stage alone for the funs and giggles isn't what it's cracked up to be. And for what? Crazed fans on the internet to deify you? Warm and fuzzies? Superiorty complex of showing "da man at SEGA" who's boss and "OWNING" Sonic Team?

And then they sometimes open Patreons, which is...A whole other can of worms, but is an acceptable form of monetization from fans because "It's optional!" and most of them still won't pay and will play for free. Which leads to the original problem of dev burnout and loss of passion and desire, as negative feelings start to attach. Ironically enough, the thought of your hard work BEING appreciated by someone in the form of something given in return, such as money for your daily living and important expenses, is usually a way to keep that passion going and feeling like you're actually achieving something past hollow words from strangers you'll never meet. It gives it meaning.

So, as stated above: Would fans really be satisfied to give these hobby projects money? Would they still leave glowing reviews, high praise, and put them on their pedestals? My thought is no, no they would treat them just the same as Sonic Team, if not worse.

Wait is this actual Sonic Prime footage

I've seen too many Sonic SFM projects and renders that use a similar looking Green Hill map, so I got confused for a sec, lol

Yeah, it's real, haha. They showed like, an additional five seconds of the initial Sonic Prime teaser.

I just ordered a 1600 dollar camera for myself.

Plus a 200 dollar protection plan.

Plus 100 dollars in tax.

I've got a payment plan so I'm not paying this all out of pocket but man, I'm not sure if I'm feeling guilty over it right now or not. But I'm really excited for this camera.

Edit: Before people start sending happy birthdays, its not actually until the 27th.
