If you have enough knowledge on multiple franchises, nothing will truly feel original. What matters in the end is how well the idea is executed within its franchise

>>534633172Maybe france should make more Sonic content
>>534632651The real design for the character is a humanized version of that, actually.
>>534633003I do. But the Sonic OC designs themselves aren't the real designs in the actual project. Well, I do plan on using them to some degree, but not as the main designs.
My design philosophy is designing them as Sonic OCs first, and then humanizing them with all those elements carried over.
Reminder that G.U.N contracted a civilian archaeologist to retrieve Gerald's journal from one of Eggman's bases. Humans in Sonic never have powers or super fighting skills. Who the fuck is this Lara Croft ass bitch?
Archie 30YL if it was...good?
>>534633321Well good luck then. I hope you're able to create the story you want
>>534633045ew why are there so many tailspedos here?
>>534632724You're a Sonic the Hedgehog fan. No you fucking don't.
>>534633569Thanks, and good luck to you too!
That whole thread was retarded. Of course the Sonic series has inspirations. It's normal
>>534633432Because she's entitled to the information and has been living a double life to conceal the fact that she is related to the Robotniks. Something only GUN knows
>>534633265I repeat what I said last thread. If you improved both the animation and art style of Underground and gave Sonic's siblings their own VAs it would actually be a good show.
>>534633463>30YL is a boring slog that nobody likes >The only redeeming factor it has is confirming a happy ending for Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles in at least one continuity>Ian thinks this continuity makes Mina a pedophile and doesn't want a predetermined ending so he goes out of its way to create a storyline that utterly destroys the possibility of it being the futureIan ruined Sonally just to get at TailsMina.
>>534633739>Sonic Underground shonen-ecchi from franceI'd watch it.
>>534633172God I miss it. Yumi, my beloved.
It's funny, but the Code Lyoko characters would not look at all out of place in a Sonic game.
>>534633265You joke, but I'd like to see that.
>>534632876 (OP)who the fuck keep making these kind of thread themes like this? jesus fucking christ
>Code Lyoko
>Banger theme song
>Sonic Underground
>Banger theme song
Give it all to france. Just don't let them design the fucking characters dear god.
Sonic should take inspiration from Doctor Who.
>>534634076Shadria shippers are mentally ill
>>534633690Maria and Sage are over the line.
>>534634123>wants to give France a Sonic show>doesn't want them to do the character designsWell what's the fuckin' point then, jackass?
>>534634194Shadow is mentally ill
>>534633997I had a huge crush on Yumi as a kid.
>>534633997For me, it's Aelita.
>>534634297I'm not trying to stare at Sonia's man titties bouncing all the time
It's not sexy it's horrifying.
>>534633045VOTE KNUXOUGE, WE CANNOT LET TAILSPACOS WIN
>>534634272No. People here also always act like it's somehow unheard of and the series is just a Dragon Ball ripoff with nothing original or whatever.
Speaking of Light Mobius, you have prayed and given proper tribute to your Lord and Savior Maria today, yes?
>>534634123>>534634404You are gay. Why are you gay?
Reminder nobody cares about Espada del Coraje and only mention it for tribal fights, but not for its own content.
>>534634564It's not gay to not want to fuck something that sounds like steve urkel
When is Whisper going to become cool like Raiden did?
>>534593154>>Yes, God programmed most peoples' brains to care about sex and feel good to do it, but we have decided not to properly educate you on doing it safely and responsibly because of reasons. >I hate my nation's culture. I bet the Kingdom of Acorn mandates proper sex ed. Sally absolutely would make an executive order to that effect.My country is pro-sex ed... in so far as here's a condom, here's a polystyrene penis, try not to be children about it (girls choose to not, boys mess around), and then more on homosexs than STDs or how STDs effectively discriminate against the homosex for certain reasons.
Dunno what safely and responsibly would be given all the seemingly mandatory pill popping.
Though the new religion in the country has schools that don't allow any of this and it's even more miserable, so swings and roundabouts!
I imagine the Acorn Kingdom would need more home economics and family planning (of the what to do when you have children, not the real euphemism of abortion) lessons with how fast animals go at it.
>>534634503Sonails already won, it was first place when you decided to vote the second place out of spite (as you said in the poll's comments). You basically admitted defeat with both the comments and the post you just made
>>534634538>Most Sonic fans in Latin America and Spain are fans of Dragon Ball>Dragon Ball Z is practically a religion in MexicoI wonder how sane the Hispanic fandom is compared to the English speaking one.

>>534633045sonamy sisters, what went wrong?
How strong was Light Mobius Shadow supposed to be?
>>534634734When she becomes a cyborg sniper and let her bloodlust take over her persona.
She also needs to fight the ex president of the United Federation who is injected in Chaos energy on a hand to hand battle.
>>534634896defeated by knuckles daughter and only fought against a weaker older sonic
>>534634564Says the guy who is actively censoring the designated sexy character because his Pedowood buddy told him too.
>>534634896He took over the world and beat up everyone, Sonic included. so base level
>>534634932Man, now I want someone to draw the President to be as big as Absolute Batman, all while holding the photo of Sonic and Shadow on him.
>>534633045I love the live chat here.
Continuing on the note that Sonic is like Batman
Lanolin is like Ellen Yindel from the Dark Knight Returns
By-the-book cop, new commisioner of Gotham Police
Her first act for example is to arrest Batman
And of course she fails, not realising Batman's too big and he's the only force that can bring order to Gotham
But where Ellen works because she's the main representative of Anti-Batman's side of the media's debate and she can just show up out of nowhere because of the convention of the comic
Lanolin represents no one really
No one wants Sonic to stop saving lives especially when he does that without torturing anyone
SonTails is really taking off as a ship. It is all over Twitter too.

The manga is cool. Next issue should be out soon, right?

>>534635263>Just throws around some flimsy Chaos Spears before being frozen by an OC donut steel.If you needed any more early proof that Ian hates Shadow...
>>534633432This reminds me. Tailstube established the Gaians are an ancient culture. Doesn't Tikal have attacks named after Gaia? Does that suggest the Echidnas worshipped Light Gaia?
I mean, Tikal is constantly praying so I imagine she was religious.
>>534634010Gen another Rouge bed invitation sex with her default outfit
Sontails is a bot ship. The poll proves it
>>534635157Please, the French would have her steal the main protagonist slot. Who the fuck is Sonic? This is Rouge's show now.
>>534634503Donโt even like sontails but youโre a faggot
I don't mind archiefags until they start bitching about things that have been in the sonic games literally forever.
You aren't getting rid of "the wind". Cut it out.

>>534601157>>534601840I'm sad I like this concept and it was made by AI. Why couldn't the writers make them fun and adventure pilled? They didn't try to make the team improve before making drama out of them.
>Tailsmo that high
You guys are alright sometimes.
>>534635740It's almost like Sonally is a pairing that involves warping Sonic's personality in a way that only works if you grew up with it and are 30+ years old while Sonurge makes no fucking sense at all.
>>534635593She's crying because it's been ages since she felt the ecstasy of a well aimed shot, and the subsequent melody of a bullet ripping through the flesh, with hollow point shards dancing between the bones.
>That many votes in that many categories
Yeah I do not believe that thee are over 100 people visiting sthg today.
>>534635101I geniunely thought they were going that route with Lanollin, making her like the Maria Hill of the series, making her antagonistic towards the hero guy like it happened in Civil War.
In practice she is just naive, trusting a newcomer over the established hero she knows saved the world from the Metal Virus.
>>534635036The one with the big bell tower.
Last I saw from my national broadcaster, the sex ed curriculum should by now include incels, using AI to undress photographs, how pornography is misogynistic (I'm not exaggerating), consent in relation to "power dynamics", LGBT, online & domestic abuse, FGM but not MGM/circumcision. The main opponents to anything are the Moon cult who have sex segregated skoolz. Some sex ed topics can be opted out by parents, specifically abortion.
>>534635738Rouge herself is Honduran, but her name is French.
>>534636038>You may select multiple options
>>534635972Are you the whispanglefag that wants them to be fun mercenaries? What do you think about the AI prompt?
...Man because of that stupid fanfic now I want to see someone draw Flynn's OC, the raven lady milf who raised Rouge.
I just like ravens, ok? They are majestic animals, even if their scream is hellish.
>>534635405Why isn't it Sonic defeating Shadow?
>>534636095You were supposed to CRUMBLE under FAGVER allegations
BUT YOU DIDNT, WHY
>>534636043She should have trusted Whisper but Whisper approached it in the worst way possible
>>534636263Because he lost to Shadow in that arc because he was too old. Kek.
Can they show Frontiers 2 already?
Have a lovely saturday night, /sthg/!!
What are you guys up to? I finally looked into the SA2 citypop album that was posted here a few days ago. It has been an amazing listen while chillin' and doing other things.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkU49S4G8Mw
>>534636234I thought that shit was hilarious, even the genAI defaults to them being a couple. But yeah, hate to admit it, the prompt at least seemed to be going the direction of them going on adventures together. The Restoration was a mistake, man.
>>534636335>Whisper approached it in the worst way possibleNo I don't blame Whisper in this scenario, Lanolin should respect her and Silver's experience. Lanolin just barely went on her first mission
>>534636095I love this twink

>>534636927>seetheEverybody here loves knuxouge and their moms
>>534636260According to the fanfic seether, there is a non-zero chance that could happen. As much as Sega has its weird butthurt about families, they established that Rouge's mom exists in at least two different games. I would nut if Jade was made official. Especially since my favorite character would finally have a proper backstory.
Hm. Maybe that's why Flynn was audibly terrified of opening his mouth when the question about Rouge's status in the franchise going forward came up in Bumblekast.
>>534633769>Ian ruined Sonally>Implying that it was all IanSonally was a fucked ship since it's inception
>>534636553I liked the Restoration, but at the same time I see why people didn't.
On a scale of 1-10 how autistic would it be to write fanfiction of someone's OP-SI fanfic while replacing their Donut Steel with a mentally challenged hobo?
>>534637082>Flynn was audibly terrified of opening his mouth when the question about Rouge's status in the franchise going forwardNo its because he knew about the incoming censorship in exchange for pushing her to main girl status with Amy. Rouge will be relevant in the next mainline game with Shadow

i voted for the realdash ship because i thought it was funny
but honestly is he even around anymore
>>534633045I wish there was a none answer, also who the fuck is gardon
>>534637143I think every single person on planet earth already knows that Sonally doesn't line up with Sonic's personality in the games. Even Sonallyfags have had it vomited into their brains over and over for a decade. Everyone knows. Everyone knows that if Sally was stuffed into the games she wouldn't be able to keep her dynamic with Sonic. Even Ian told us that's just a fact. We all KNOW. You don't need to point it out every time.
nobody likes shatouge it's all astroturfed.
>>534637524Play the games
>>534637249No no, the question was specifically about whether or not she's still a spy. I forget the date, but Kyle even notably pointed out that Ian looked like he had a gun to his head. He managed to get out the vague answer that she's still a spy, but an independent contractor. Shit was kinda concerning, because Ian is usually happy to blab about stuff, but for this, he was extremely reluctant to risk saying too much. I don't know what kind of mandates Rouge has on her, but they're apparently not fucking around with that.
Canon Sally would just be Female Knuckles
>Watching in real time as the Realdash ship is getting botted.
>>534637519He might be that shit is getting botted
>>534637672Oh that probably has more to do with GUN's status in universe than her then. Basically the shit from the recent IDW issue where she's still working for "someone" but it's vague

>>534637650It tells me he is only from sonic rush adventure, which makes sense I haven't heard of him. Also there isn't a plural here, so I don't know what you are on about
>>534637458This is so cute desu.
Jeezus. How autistic can you guys be?
>>534638008Shadougefag will be a mere blip compared to the autism we're going to see next year
>>534638048Play the games. Rush Adventure is one of them.
>>534636496Trying to get through my daily quota on top of having to make up for the ones I didn't do earlier this week.

sorry for being a newfag but who is realdash?

Well I guess we can happily and easily throw out both Stangle and Knuxouge because those were clearly being botted if you were watching it.
Sontails is the winner!

Love wins!
Next year is going to answer a lot of questions people have here.
I think Sonamyfags should be happy that Sonallyfags exist because Sonally is so OOC that it distracts jpn purists from attacking Sonamy.
One day in the future, Sonally will be so irrelevant that there will be no human shields blocking canon purists from getting mad at Sonamyfags.
>But Sonamy is canon
The way Sonamyfags draw the pairing is not. They often do the exact same things Sonallyfags do and get away with it because Sonally is a buffer.
If Sonamyfags had to endure 1% of the canon policing that Sonallyfags face, they would snap.
>>534638315Even without bots Knuxouge votes were admitted to being fake and done out of spite because Sonails was winning
>>534634503
>>534638315Sontails is the most botted ship here and on outside polls, projecter
Sontails sweep! Botters and riggers can go home now.
>>534638336The French are cute!
>>534637924 If it's not GUN then it's Eggman or the President or Tori. We all know Sonic's world has the depth of a spot of newborn baby vomit so being coy about it just makes the attempt at mystery look stupid UNLESS it's Tori
>>534638181You are still very dedicated I see. Well regardless, I hope you are doing alright and things are okay for you.
I voted for Stangle because what realcuck's posted before is actually kinda cute, so I can see it
Still think his oc is ugly as shit tho
>>534638294I'm an oldfag and even I'm not too familiar with him. From what I can gather, he's a really autistic Tanglefag who ships her with his self-insert Storm. He brought a life-sized Tangle cutout on a date with him and took a picture. He draws stuff (usually porn) and posts it here, which usually causes some sort of spergout.
I think it's just being a cringeworthy autistic self-shipper that gets anons mad at him.
>>534635101>and he's the only force that can bring order to GothamIt's a good thing IDW never made Sonic like Batman in a way that, to put it simply, the Joker is no longer that funny clown who sometimes ties up Robin but is instead unleashing worldwide metal zombie plagues and two normal characters are offering a zero consequence permanent solution to the Joker but Sonic keeps saying no and we all awkwardly pretend this is what we wanted to read.
>>534633045We can throw this whole thing out now
>>534638750>He brought a life-sized Tangle cutout on a date with him and took a picture.lmao, that was not realdash
>>534638565I would hate if it was Tori, because after finding out that she's apparently just Lara Croft, I want her to be Rouge's long time archenemy. No, I have no justification for this, I just want my girl to have her own nemesis.
Twitter told me SonTails was bad.
>>534633045shipping super bowl
>>534638750I see. This being a sonic general it doesn't surprise me there was or there is a person like that here
SonTails and SonUrge haters are insecure SonAmy shippers
Don't mind me, just posting the OFFICIAL #1 /sthg/ ship.
>>534639069Thats not stangle
>main protagonist x #1 supporting character who appears in almost all media & crossovers is the most popular ship once you filter haters and other ships shitting on it to arbitrarily suppress it or push out of character ships with less popular characters
Who would have thought?
>>534638853People didn't bot for real ships.
>>534639132More like Strangle
>>534639132Silly anon, Stangle and Kunxouge are disqualified for being obviously botted. Weren't you hear like 10 minutes ago watching it?

>>534639069SonTails wins because it's literally Wind-coded shipping
I wish this general wasn't 90% shipping discussions and people truly getting heated about it too
>>534639524>Wind-coded shipping
Can we just ban any and all polls from now on? This is no better than 'rolling'. It's every bit as disruptive and obnoxious. Genuinely how is this allowed.
And before you start, no, I don't care about your shipping drama. Do not start projecting. You need to stop.

>>534639582Irrelevant. Whoever that was admitted he only wanted to cheat Sonails out of its first place, got praised by another person, and tried to convince others to join him. That's when further votes became invalid. Sonails won.
>>534639487Pft, threaten me with a good time.
>>534639552I will never understand getting THIS obsessed over fictional characters fucking. Sonic fans once again failing to be normal about anything.
>>534638565Why would hire Rouge to look into Clutch's operation still ongoing despite him being defeated, when the reveal is that Clutch has been turned into a shell company for him?
I can't tell if this is just anons shooting the shit with eachother or if there's actual people upset about it. Either way it's funny.
If SonTails is popular why is it so controversial to like it?
>>534639552I would rather see this place talk about anything other than Silver for the millionth time
Shipping discussion is so fucking funny because to a shipper, all the opposing ships are meme ships. There are people here threatened by Sonouge, Shadally, and Knuxamy.
>>534639816*why would Eggman hire Rouge to investigate himself
>>534633265We already had Sonic Boom mannequin-like CG animation
>>534639720not my fault others allegedly got gaslit, if it hurts you that much, you can deduce -1 vote
Sonic should have writing like Doctor Who
>>534633045Total Knuxouge victory.
>>534639890Other ship fags spending the past decade arbitrarily suppressing it within the fandom to prop up Sonamy and Sonadow.
Sontails is the 'normalfag' ship of assuming the main character and his cute androgynous fox friend are an item.
That's why Tailsko and heterosexual Sontails used to be so popular within this fandom.
It's the lowest barrier of entry ship and incredibly in character.
Held back purely by 'canon ages' (SEGA never cared much about anyways, and which don't exist anymore) and the fact it's gay so has a more niche audience outside of heterosexual interpreations ala Tailsko.
>>534639890Itโs one Tailshater malding that anything involving Tails is liked
>Knuxouge that high
Yeah. It's botted. Fuck off. You are blatantly botting the poll to make your Sonic X crap seem popular.
>>534639776Like sure, I find pairing of characters cute but this shit is ridiculous. I don't think there has been a single thread since I have been here where shipping wasn't being talked about in one way or another. I knew being part of a Sonic general would have actual full autistic anons here but what surprised me is how most of that autism went to shipping than literally anything else.

>>534640736So this entire video makes a point to ignore idw which is the biggest criticism regarding characerization. The english dubs of the game are slightly off, but only slightly. Frontiers, Colors, and Lost World are the only games with majorly different english scripts. and the early 2000s titles are the only ones with unintentional errors.
He's not making any new points here. Even the strictest japan purist will agree. What he should be arguing with is Blade of Courage vs IDW. Because it's just a simple fact that one of these is more reminiscent of the VIDEO GAMES

All of you got bullied for liking a ship back then on deviantart. and it shows
What's your favorite depiction of Eggman, /sthg/?
It can be something trivial like just his design but I am mostly interested which eggman character writting is the most fun or interesting to you. Like liking the simplistic characterization of him in the first games or the more serious tone in the recent games. I am thinking mostly about the games but if you like any version of him more in the comics, shows, etc, I really would like to know why.
>>534640736Just watched this long ass video about Japanese vs Western Sonic discourse and holy shit this guy actually did his homework. Spent like 40 minutes breaking down why JAPurists are mostly coping retards who don't understand that Sonic was literally designed for America from day one.
The funniest part was when he pointed out that Colors and Lost World - the games everyone uses as examples of "muh western writing bad" - were actually written by Pontac and Graff in ENGLISH first, then translated to Japanese. So all those puristfags crying about how much better the Japanese versions are were literally praising translations of the shitty western scripts they claim to hate. Kek.
Also confirmed what we already knew - that most of the "inconsistencies" between JP and EN are just standard localization differences, not some grand conspiracy to ruin Sonic's character. The guy actually went through Windii's translations and found basically no meaningful differences outside of a few outliers.
His point about death of the author was pretty based too. These autists who think there's some "true" version of Sonic that only exists in Japanese are missing the point entirely. Characters evolve, deal with it.
Only thing I disagree with is him being too nice about it. Should've just called them weebs and moved on. The whole "Japanese Sonic has le special atmosphere" argument is pure cope from people who watched too much anime and think Japan can do no wrong.
Solid video though, actually used sources and didn't just make shit up like most Sonic YouTubers. Worth the watch if you want to dunk on puristfags with actual evidence.

>>534643429I think Mike Pollock is a good VA and I think heโs funny in most depictions and makes do with even the worst Westshit scripts in a way that almost works.
>>534643445I think the video fails to cover that IDW is the nucleus of the debate. He puts aside his biases and that's respectable but in the end of the day, people aren't usually ripping into the english dubs of modern Sonic games. They're ripping into IDW's portrayal.
Pariah is the quintessential example of a japanese purist and he says to play Frontiers in english because the japanese version is an incoherent mess
>>534643295>Silvazenah. Silvaze is chopped for everything but shipping. Trying to acutally use these characters outside '06 has always been a total shitshow.
I just made a run to the store and there was a young adult retard who looked just like Ian Flynn, but he was the sad kind of retard who looked like he should be wearing a safety helmet and was laughing and clapping around noisily and we all had to ignore him. It made me feel bad because it also reminded me of those AI videos posted here where Ian Flynn does retarded things.
I swear, he was the spitting image of Ian Flynn, and no, I'm not high or drunk.
Man, I'm really happy that I don't get so upset and angry over shipping in online forums that I literally caps lock death wishes towards them. That just sounds depressing, stupid and very insecure.

>>534643445He goes out of his way to ignore Sonic X and IDW. The two entries that japanese purists actually gets mad at. Nobody is actually concerning themselves about if the DIC cartoons are in-character. We already know they're not.
>>534643445>The funniest part was when he pointed out that Colors and Lost World - the games everyone uses as examples of "muh western writing bad" - were actually written by Pontac and Graff in ENGLISH first, then translated to Japanese.FALSE. Sonic Team wrote the story of both games. For Lost World, Pontac and Graff wrote the script first, then Sonic Team made corrections for the Japanese version. With Colors, Pontac and Graff joined the team late in development, the script was already written, and they made adaptation differences for the English script. The most influence they had on the games was deciding to keep Orbot and Cubot around.
>that most of the "inconsistencies" between JP and EN are just standard localization differencesLocalizations are often bad, and Pontac and Graff's work especially so.

>>534644075I refuse to believe all shatouge we've had to deal with was 1 fag
Sonic Twitter is still arguing over if Frontiers is a better game than 06.
>>534643445I have my issues with it as a windfag who's sympathetic to Western Sonic.
It didn't dive deep enough into the Classic Era or how Western and Eastern Sonic both had similar themes of cyberpunk and post-apocalypse. With SatAM and the OVA both depicting "Eggmanland"/"Robotropolis" as cyberpunk dystopias built on the ruins of a once prosperous civlization. There isn't enough conversation about how the identity for Classic Sonic was largely consistent in themes up until the Adventure Era where you see a tonal shift solidifying with Maekawa's direction on the series where you begin to see characters acting wildly out of character compared to their previous incarnations. Notably how Maekawa has Tails job so much to prop up his OC Sonic recolor Shadow.
Windfags will also ignore how western Sonic media at the time also displayed Sonic as 'like the wind' and how Japanese Sonic was envisioned with numerous love interest characters (Madonna, Elise, Princess Sara, etc) and how Sally Acorn likely stems from those ideas (alongside SatAM making Sonic use a guitar, which he uses the same guitar in the manga and in concepts by Naka, In fact, there is an argument to be made that American localizers interfered with Sonic but it wasn't to 'make Sonic a rock star or give him a girlfriend', to the contrary, Madeline Schroeder seethed at the idea of Sonic being a rock star or having a girlfriend (especially a human one).
Sadly X fags are fine being dishonest and no one even remembers the actual history of Classic Sonic (or how close westfag characters like Sally, Antoine, etc were to being recurring game cast members. See: Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine and Sonic Spinball. Sonic 16 and Sonic X-treme failing killed this.)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmmtjdQiMbg
Knuxouge and Shadiarrheafags just ignore this completely.
>>534644492Base game, I put them in the same tier. DLC/updates improved both, but I think Frontiers benefited more from them than 2006 did. If 2006 was more polished and the town missions weren't so boring I would say it's easily way better than Frontiers though. I consider 2006 superior in many aspects
It's funny cause all you have to do to prove that purism is correct is post the complete liquid dogshit that is Archie and IDW and there's simply no rebuttal.
>>534643445>Sonic was designed for AmericaBullshit. Sonic Team has said Sonic is Japanese. They consulted with Americans to make him more appeaing.
>localization differencesJust because "localization differences" don't change the content of the dialog, but the characterization isn't different. Of course the translation isn't going to change much. If you want a fair comparison you need to compare Sonic's characterization between Japanese writers and English writers.
>characters evolveNo they don't lol. Everything has to go through Toyota. They have internal documents and mandates.
I can tell you're a spiteful little faggot.
>>53464449206 fans are blinded by nostalgia and don't actually care about anything in that game.

>>534645710It was a very advanced hologram.
>>534644718>ITT knuxougesisters seething because 06 overwrites SA2 completely
This is the clearest example of Sonic being OOC because it literally shows something that didn't happen. In Rush he was trying to de-escelate the situation their entire fight. Yet this flashback depicts him enjoying himself essentially harassing Blaze. Sonic doesn't like fighting people when they're distressed, he's not a sociopath like Ian writes him as.
>>534644961You're ignorant and arrogant about things you don't know shit about.

>Anti-purists dodge debating about IDW because it's very easy to point at Uwuver and show that no japanese incarnation of silver behaves like this at all, without even getting started on Sonic himself
Am I mistaken?

Only newfags donโt realize that the sole Shadria shipper in this thread is trying to make her ship look relevant through botting and drama.
If all of you had a Tails to cuddle and hug and talk to then none of you would be this upset. Fact.
>>534646585>Playing dumb and deflecting You use the exact type of terms on competing ships every time when called out.
Why would you even use the word "bullying" if you weren't a ship being bullied? You're not fooling anyone.

I played him as a pure hero because thats what maria would have wanted
The shadow that says "I made a promise to maria to protect the planet she loved" is kino
>>534648556I would have to say Tails, Knux, Blaze, Espio, Sonic, Big the cat
Iโm a bit conflicted about gadget but the art is definitely cute
I AM a jp purist and I don't see the issue in people finding gamenic boring. Before the era of Boom and IDW the general consensus in the fandom is that Sonic as a character has the most boring stories in his own games and that's why Shadow is so popular

>>534653262I'm sure we all be dead by now. If we are alive, I'm sure AI will find its place in society, but generative art and writing will be remembered as fads like NFTS were.
>>534643445>shit this guy actually did his homework.the uploader is a lesbian transwoman and openly identifies as such.
I think that's pretty relevant and oddly consistent for someone who makes a point to defend the IDW Sonic writers but is too cowardly to actually make the video about the criticisms of IDW Sonic. Because in the end of the day this "girl" knows for a fact that the IDW comics are not in-character. Do not match the videogames. Are rightfully criticized for being built on the writers' archie-laden headcanons.
>>534653381The entire "H-Honey is just a rapist and a pedo I-i swear" spam from tailsfags is because of the comics.
>>534653492>but generative art and writing will be remembered as fads like NFTS were.Half of the content you consume is ai generated. You just don't know it.
>>534653492>but generative art and writing will be remembered as fads like NFTS were.Writing most likely, but art isnโt gonna go down so easily, especially since its heading towards shit like on-model sonic porn videos in the next few years, once that hits its over for birth rate
So some interesting internal things from Sega
>company has been almost exclusively siding with AMD due to consoles and the lack of performance hit from FSR
>Switch 2 pushing the people up top to ask devs to put DLSS in their games
>RGG is really into the idea since they believe it will make the PC versions even better and potentially make the Switch 2 version the most compelling console version
>Atlus mixed, main Persona teams engine is too old to support it without massive reworking, Persona remake team and SMT team donโt mind since theyโre using UE/Unity anyway
>Sonic Teams engine is too old to support DLSS without reworking it drastically
>Smaller studios around the company are also not bothered due to Unreal growing as the engine of choice around Sega
>>534653381Do you not consider portraying Honey as a dominatrix towards Tails shitting on the character?
>>534653576And the pedo headcanon about honey is a big stretch while Tails getting constantly cucked is literally in the comic plots.
>>534653694I donโt care about non-fan head canon like that
You might as well be asking me if i think deviant art fetish porn shits on the characters
>>534653848In character for modern shitnic
>>534653672Meh, as a consoomer of porn, AI art has a special niche in making art of lesser known characters (I seen a lot of porn of porn characters kek), but it is boring after a while.
Part of the fun of art is for the art to be a window or bridge with the artist soul. It's why some people start to worship creators. And some of my favorite artists have very unique traits to them, something AI won't have.
Here's another video by the same uploader. Still agree? https://youtu.be/vomC5SHkaOU?si=SXMwryYuUIfxMRq2
IDW matches the games if the last game you played was Sonic Forces on release. Blade of Courage matches the games if the last game you played was Sonic Unleashed on release
>>534652309I could spend 90-120 minutes cutting out this image, but I can't be arsed to do such a thing at this hour.
>>534654250>IDW matches the games if the last game you played was Sonic Forces on releasI would disagree becuase Forces takes "Windnic" to the worst extreme we have ever seen in the games. IDW Sonic is more along the lines of Lost World.

The results will be used as an official representation of ship popularity on /sthg/. I will not include the meme answers.
>>534672197How do you determine a meme answer? There's noncanon ships that people take seriously (Sonurge) and official ships that don't make sense in canon (Sonally). I'd consider them just as valid as Sonamy still.
Live-action was a strange choice for Sonic
>>534672319>How do you determine a meme answer?If the ship is essentially never posted about, never gets fanart, has no basis, has virtually no fans, but ranks high anyway because it's funny to vote for a nonsensical answer or a namefag's OC.

>>534671562>>534671279>>534671151>>534671024When are you going to realize that nobody cares about authentic characterization anymore? Every time someone points out how un-Sonic Sonic was in Tailstube, Sonic shorts on YouTube and IDW comics, you get called a JPurist every single time. The whole fandom just wants Sonic to cry and have realistic panic attacks.
>>534674269I wonder if other fandoms with similar characters have people like this. Are there people who want Bugs Bunny and Mrs Frizzle to be more vulnerable? Goku perhaps? I know this exact thing happened to Lara Croft gradually.
>>534673436>>534673971We don't know how many spite voters there were. I could subtract 1 or 2 votes from Knuxouge and Sontails due to the spitevoting, but anyone could claim a ship is spitevoted. Knuxouge being that high tracks at least, it's a ship that has a lot of casual enjoyers who don't post it often and there's one guy that spergs about it so people like to piss him off.
post credit scenes are non canon tho
why do you care
>>534674521>post credit scenes are non canon thoNo they aren't. They're literally in the movie, and your brain is fried from too many online debates.
>>534674376Nah Goku is safe due to the fact that most of his fans are manly boys or young adult males who wanted nothing but cool flashy fights with hype moments and aura. White tumblr millenial women couldn't touch them
Woman here. Women shouldn't touch the Sonic franchise. They uwuify everything they touch. Even I do it by accident. Women should be banned from Sonic forever.
>>534674635robotnik knew nothing about shadow in sonic 3
this is contradicted by sonic 2 post credit scene
>>534674695Anti-windfags shouldn't even be a thing. It's literally just a product of fucking comics and cartoons. Shit from outside of the games.
"Boo hoo they made Sonic boring". I would be fine if they considered Sonic boring and just admitted it instead of pretending there was anything else.
"Windic" is literally just Sonic. He jokes more now but other than that it's literally just been this.
It's not some insanely difficult thing to understand. It's as simple as playing the videogames.
>>534674695This is the only intelligent post I've seen made with this particular image attached. Other than that it's been the most obvious third world seethe ever.
>>534674781>Woman hereLiar
I think the wind discussion has gotten so esoteric that people don't realize how damning it really is. It's just as simple as Sonic behaving the way he does in the games. Not in Archie or IDW. People who disagree with "The wind" tend to be actively advocating that Sonic act the way he does in comic books. That's fucking retarded. It's a product of IDW writing the characters inaccurately and IDW fans not wanting to admit it. It would be so simple if the comic just didn't exist.
Archie at least had the excuse that it was based on old media. There is no reason this should have carried over into a modern comic.
>The Windfaggot vs Antiwindfaggot debate is still going

>>534675692One side is people who play the games. The other side is people who read the comics. It's obvious that one of these two sides is fucking delusional.

>>534676362Shadow's quills would destroy a sleeping bag
>>534675626There's something kind of funny about the fact that, in their effort to "unify" the franchise by making the comics more in-line with the games, they made the confusion over characterization even worse. Anti-windfags are often Archiefags/IDWfags/shipfags, but they rarely acknowledge this themselves. They don't ever say that's their preferred characterization for Sonic because they know they'd get torn a new one. So they just lash out. What's even more concerning is the level of hostility. They openly tell certain windfags to slit their own throats, as if they'd genuinely enjoy someone dying over a blue hedgehog. They target anyone who dares to engage in debates about characterization under the veil of anonymity.

>>534676486This is correct in every way. Attempting to make it "one canon" has done nothing but give comicfags and gamefags a direct reason to fight each other.

They want to change Sonic, Shadow and Silver to "give" them a personality but they want to change Amy to take her's away.

>>534676486>Anti-windfags are often Archiefags/IDWfags/shipfags, but they rarely acknowledge this themselves.This is one thing I find annoying about "anti windfags". They will vaguepost about how "Sega wants to make Sonic boring" or "Windnic is a horrible character".
Hey, those are okay opinions to have. I disagree, but nobody needs to like the things I like.
But they just won't specify what they think is interesting. They avoid mentioning what Sonic they actually want. Because if they admit "I want Sonally to be canon" or "I want the Sonic from the IDW comics" they will immediately get hit with the response "Oh, so you don't care about Sonic in the first place". To a lot of people in this fandom, getting outed as not playing the games is one of the most humiliating things that can happen. It invalidates everything else you have to say.
Additionally, they don't want to admit that they have conflated things from the comics as canon and only realized it during the argument.
Stuff like Sonic having a harem, insecurites, or quipping. Being insanely arrogant. They don't like the realization that they want character traits the games literally never had.

>>534677924Iโm sure Bump is happy to know they are appreciated
>>534677261Lol, this. They never specify the alternative to Windnic, because they know they'll get jumped for saying something like Archie even though it's pretty obvious that's what they want without saying it.
>>534677924I mean, now that you mention it, she does look very pleased.
>>534677261>getting outed as not playing the games is one of the most humiliating things that can happen. It invalidates everything else you have to say.The reason not playing the games is humiliating to them is because they KNOW Sonic is a video game franchise. Everything else, the comics, the movies, the cartoons, they're all derivatives that exist solely because the games were and are successful. When you strip away that foundation, you're left with nothing but fanfiction-tier interpretations that have no real weight behind them.
Anti-windfags are acutely aware of this hierarchy, which is why they're so insecure (and thus aggressive) about it. They know their preferred characterizations are built on shaky ground. Their comics are literally just licensed advertisements that take liberties with characters they didn't create, and anti-windfags have to live with the fact that their "versions" of Sonic are essentially expensive fanfiction that could be retconned at any moment by daddy SoJ.
That's why they never openly admit they prefer the comics. They know it makes them look like secondary fans who latched onto inferior products.
Instead, they try to chip away at windfags (gamefags) from the shadows, concern trolling about how "Windfags are forcing things on us and harassing us" while never actually defending their preferred Sonic interpretations on their own merits. Because they can't. What are they gonna say? "Sonic should act like a condescending quip-machine faggot because Ian said so"? Lol, lmao.
Their entire strategy relies on obfuscation and emotional manipulation, pure cope from people who know they're wrong but are too invested in their headcanon to admit it, lashing out whenever their little bubble of delusion is popped by a pin with the words "OOC" on it.
