I'm really feel bad for Sonic nowadays...

First the quality of his games, then his fanbase, and now this...

I think it's time that we put the blue blur down for good
If I had a dollar everytime I saw this, I could buy Sonic from SEGA.

Hardly. There's a ton of untapped potential in Sonic, as shown through his good games, or at the very least, the good parts of his games. And despite the clearly bad games, his **** still sells.

What needs to be put down for good is Sega's management, or at the very least the management at Sonic Team. They're schizophrenic and unconfident with their ideas, relying on new gimmicks instead of actually fleshing out Sonic's gameplay in a natural way, a la Mario's games like Galaxy, Odyssey, 3D World, etc.

A perfect example is Unleashed, the game that created the "boost" gameplay that was received so well, marred by an unnecessary and jarring "werehog" gameplay that no one asked for. Like, guys. You made a good game. Try believing in it sometime and not stuffing the rest of the game with other ****.

This is Ken Penders on steroids:




And this is to go even further beyond.




We aren’t dealing with the average Ken Penders anymore. Twitter is ****ting itself.
“Sonic May be fast, but Geoffrey was faster on the draw in that department.”

OH DAMN!

Gimme Sonic x Mirror's Edge please.
Yes, two franchises that significantly lost their way and had terrible outings on their most recent releases.

What could go wrong.

My post was a bit of a joke. The franchise should certainly continue

I really hope to see Sonic rise as one of the video game greats, like he once was back in the day.

If only Sega/Sonic Team had faith in good ideas

Welp, Grubhub just jacked up all their prices.

Guess I have to walk to get my lunch from now on.

Actually, Sonic Rush created the Boost gameplay.

Just nitpicking.

They had enough faith in Headcannon and PagodaWest Games to let them make Sonic Mania. That’s a start.
True dat

Still hoping that the core Sonic Team games could have the same polish and effort that Mania had, sometime in the future

Imagine actually paying for food and not doing the Big Boss approved method of going into a nearby forest, killing an animal, and eating it raw.
