Only the japanese could come up with simple dialogue like this that speaks to the soul. No quip, no trying to make it cutesy or edgy, just a simple sentiment spoken plainly.

nice looking water.

>>714056451
You will be called a weeb but you're right. Western culture has degraded so badly that even our language is retarded.

Please watch actual films, please read actual books, please go view some actual art. Put your child toys away for just a second and maybe you won't become unfuckable losers.

>>714056785
I already touched grass. It didn't change my opinion.

>>714056785
I did. West stopped making anything legitimate and worthwhile sometime during the 2010s.

>>714057160
Earlier than that IMO. Late 90s to mid 00s.

>>714056785
Sonic adventure alone aesthetically mogs all that garbage, especially the slop academics worship. Interestingly enough all those authors share a certain aspect in their early life sections

>>714056152 (OP)
Man old TVs really looked like shit

>>714056451
Oh get over yourself
Nothing can speak to your rotten cesspit of a soul

>>714058019
Insane levels of projection.

>>714056451
that line is literally from moby dick

>>714057441
you're brown

>>714058062
They made a book based on a Sonic NPC??

>>714058075
There is quite literally nothing wrong with having brown skin.

>>714057441
The only time SA1 looked good was in the first level.

>>714056451
haiku culture

>>714056785
Actual books from the 90s onwards are full of the garbage anon is talking about. There is genuine cultural rot in the west.

>>714058502
big the whale and captain the ahab

>>714061580
Literally everyone forgot about the whale boss in Rush Adventure

>>714062349
God that game sucks

Can you imagine this being your life? Being a tranny living in a house with two other trannies. You're all filthy and disgusting. Nobody cleans or probably takes any responsibility. You all have group sex with one another in rank B.O infested beds. You all walk around in women's underwear or nude in front of one another. You're all mentally ill and smoke weed together. Some of your housemates are probably openly fapping to degenerate shit out in the open, but who cares, right?

What I just described almost sounds like a halfway house but less rules.

Speaking from experience?

Yeah but there’s something kinda comfy about the fuzz. Old CRTs had their own vibe, like how the scanlines and blur actually helped hide jank textures and made PS1 games look way better than they do now in HD. Everything being a bit smeared together gave it this dreamlike look. Not saying I’d go back, but I get the nostalgia.

>>714072195
CRTs pair great with low poly visuals for the reasons you listed. Early 3D games already asked you to fill in the blanks on a lot of details, and the CRTs helped with that feeling.
The downsides of course is they were giant clunky pieces of shit, and have shot in price exponentially since nobody makes them anymore.

The adventure stages all look great

>>714056152 (OP)
Sonic adventure is an experience

>they cut the day section from the generations version because it would have been way too slow
They unironically need to slow sonic the fuck down again. I want to actually appreciate the stages, instead of just blasting through them.

don't speak like the enemy if you want the truth of your words to get across dude. You sound like a pink haired journalist.

>>714074687
I just assumed he was trolling. He mentions film, but most of that is kiddie slop and endless rehashes now a days too.

I say this with 100% sincerity, gammas story impacted me as a person when no book, show, teacher, mentor or (((leader))) has.

>>714075250
>the original ending had him shooting himself to free the bird

>>714075250
Gamma (and shadows SA2) story show sonic team can make a good story if they try, but I guess thats too much effort now a days.

>>714074587
>>714074160
Why is it so sad sound but upbeat at the same time?
This has the same effect on me. Am I autistic?

The biggest bastardisation was Tails' character post SA2
>Whole arc is I can be both independent from Sonic, and dependable by Sonic/Friends
>Every game afterwards
>AAHHHH HELP ME! or basically a squeaky waymaker

>>714076021
A lot of people split the 2D and 3D stuff into 'classic' and 'modern' sonic, but personally I feel like 'classic' sonic ends at SA2. With everything afterwards, even new 2D titles, being modern sonic.
My interest in the later is minimal these days.

>>714076021
It would've been awesome to have a Tails game but Sonic Team is retarded

>>714076335
Tails does have a game, but we don't even get 'sonic and friends' game play anymore, let alone new spin offs.

>>714056152 (OP)
Both adventure games are under $10 on steam right now by the way.

I can smell this picture...
