>>534748691 (OP)Why does this person with Tails in their pfp not view this as insulting?
>>534749058There's nothing to like about him. Every time he shows up he either disappoints or takes time away from other characters. He feels completely unnecessary every time he's present.
>>534748953>>534749135>t. self inserting cuck
https://files.catbox.moe/jfok01.jpeg
Hereโs a Charmy so heโs in the thread
>>534748691 (OP)Why is Ian so weird?
>>534749283I self insert as Duo though
How the fuck did they drop a ball with a "war in Sonic's world" story in Forces
And the japanese writers did it
How was is possible
>>534749308OOC, he didn't say
>"Yes, ma'am."
>>534749218>i wish my character was this characterNigga he barely shows up, and nobody can take his place like at all.
Have a good evening, /sthg/!!
Who is your favorite antagonist/villain that isn't eggman? For me is probably Metal Sonic, while a big jobber, I still love his design.
pee pee poo poo The Hedgehog
>>534749614Metal Sonic as well. Maybe Chaos as second place.
>>534749218Sounds like someoneโs projecting their own irrelevance. keep crying that nobody cares about your shitty takes, imagine being this pressed over a fictional hedgehog while contributing nothing of value yourself
There should be no love interests in Sonic, leaving shippers out to dry
>>534749430Nice.
>15th doctor about to regenerate >"I've been 4 old guys, 9 young guys a gal and black guy. I can't possibly get any woke than this.">*poof*>"Oh great, I'm now a Canadian feminist."
>>534749525the Japanese writers suck
>>534749525Because unironically the Americans would have been better at maintaining full custody over a wartime story.
I'm amazed the --SIX MONTHS OF MIA SONIC-- has never been filled in. I mean, holy shit, you tell so many stories here. Maybe fucking Fang came back and Infinite betrayed him, who knows.
>>534749308>a straight shota slave except heโs repulsed by women and their bodies Based suffering
>>534749342You can't ask that and post shotacon art with Tails visible bulge.
>>534749342>says the pedophile
>>534749525>>534750021The War for Sonicโs World was a complete missed opportunity.
>>534749614HAIL TO THE KING, BABE
>>534749439wow makes you even more of a cuckold
>>534749218>There's nothing to like about himHas a massive fandom even tho he barely did anything in the series
>Every time he shows up he either disappoints That's what most of his fans are loud about
>takes time away from other charactersComplete bullshit, very low instances where his role could be filled by anybody
> He feels completely unnecessary every time he's present.Notice how you "feel" that, you just might be triggered when he's around by something not related to him as per usual.
>>534749956keep your weird fetishes on twitter
>>534749614If Kit doesn't count, then Fang I guess.
Also smoking is a terrible habit.
>>534749614Shadow whenever he is actually portrayed as a villain.
>>534749614Nine, depending on definition of a villain.
Or rather what he represents.
>>534749614Amy, for being an advocate for harassment and stalking and sexual violence
>>534750306rape amy the dog
>>534749430The inside looks pretty small.
So what criteria does Sonic Team use to select brand ambassadors anyway?
>>534749614>>534750306Stop samefagging and kys.
>>534750550It's bigger on the outsi... DAMNIT IAN!
>>534750629The backgroundanon is not Amyfag you stupid nigger.
>>534750543>No heartsShadougesisters??? Ohnonono!!!
>>534750483I can't believe she routinely ruins his love life by accident.
>>534750306I like posting that amy pic since she looks so relaxed and chill, sadly I don't have more of them like that. Also dog and bunny amy are really cute!!
>>534750623Be famous and come to them. They don't have high standards going by Arin.
>>534750863Do you think Honey ever forgave Tails for dying on their date?
Adam Pally should play the next Doctor
>>534750919Doesnโt Arin not even like Sonic?
>>534749614Rough and Tumble, yeah theyโre oafs but theyโre funny
and I think theyโre both kinda hot especially Rough [spoiler\]
>>534749614Shadow. You have that awesome intro where he blitzes Sonic via Chaos Control, his cool voice, and the hover shoes man. The dude SKATES, not runs, and later iterations just said, "nah, he can use those to just straight up fly when he wants to."
You got his super form that's (or was, rather) that shade of champagne/silver, so it was like his own thing apart from Sonic, Chaos Spear, and his themes introduced me to hardcore techno. he's cool. just cool.
>>534751230>Rough and Tumble giving BJ to Silver.jpg
>>534751119His whole brand is shitting on how clunky 3D Sonic games are. He now goes into each one actively hoping for it. kinda based
>>534750306I canโt believe Amy got a pointy snout before Tails did
>stupid brats will be blocked from watching nor regurgitating mashedslop this week
Good Riddance
Still not giving my ID.
>>534751368I beg your pardon!? Can someone post that?
>>534751563Tails was the og with the long snout
>>534751639Is Gold still referenced in Blitz? if she makes it to the end, it's on the table
>>534751678I still canโt believe it ends with grounder having given Eggman head
>>534751705>Dude, put that thing away! There are like... CHILDREN here.
>>534751678To me this channel is tragic. They have the man power to make okay animations but the writting on anything is abysmal

>Sonazefags want Blaze replaced with a character they don't even know about
>Silvazefags don't want it because Blaze is already very irrelevant they want it explained and fixed
Blazefags are really killing their own character and i'm loving it
>>534751705They pugโd our boy
>>534751678So what is Mashed anyways? Never watched their Sonic videoes.
>>534752001Heโs still cute regardless
>>534751990Ey thatโs pretty based. Thanks m8
>Amyfag shipping hivemind: ACTIVATE
The final battle against the evil villain is finally over. The dust clears away. An exhausted Surge looks onward. Sonic stands before her. Standing tall and brave. His back is to her. He defeated the entire army by himself. She looks around. Destruction everywhere. He really is a force of nature.
Surge finally gets it. This is who Sonic is. The supersonic hero.
Sonic glances at her first. Then he walks over to her. He gives her that trademark warm smile.
He reached out to her. "Let's get outta here!" He says with a grin.
Surge pauses.
She takes his hand.
Slowly, she brings it towards her mouth and starts sucking on his index finger.
>>534752018Think CollegeHumor but in the mind of a 14 year old redditor who only plays the most current Smash and got invested into Sonic since 2010
>>534751705>>534752001Short snout is much cuter
>>534751639>retrowaveKHIsn't that the fag that posts Sonic pics while commenting, flirts with minors, creates 5 different accounts to be in Silvaze communities while spending commissions on Sonazeporn to every Silvaze artist?
I was told I was too much of a doormat and I trust people too much. That most Sonic fans just lie regularly or are too stupid to be politely reasoned with.
>>534752058Sonic X clearly established that Sonic doesn't have a phone or want one.
>>534752018You should check them out theyโre pretty good. Clone chaos is cute and harmless and feels like an episode of a sonic show. Vs Rule 34 is hilarious and raunchy and the Thereโs something About series is creepy as fuck and turns into a mecha anime in season 2
>>534751705I miss long snouty Classic Tails
Imagine all the rimjobs he would do to your favorite ships.
>>534752340I have no idea, I've never hear of any of that
>>534752018Pure comedic brainrot, still funny watches.
>>534752554It was filler.
You guys playing Toree Saturn at all?
I assume the last two costumes are Macbat and Tasty but I don't know how to unlock them unless it's All S Ranks.
I'm startled every time mashed references Archie since it's usually very generic references.
In their Knuckles cartoons you can see background elements that imply that Amy is currently dating Tekno.
>>534752669I have no idea what that is
>>534752407Not entirely untrue. Honestly with so much content and interpretation being a sonic fan is like
Be a fan of stuff, now you have to defend against numbskulls who think thereโs a rightest way to be a fan of something. That or just never talk about it

>>534751305Why did Chaos Spear become such an iconic Shadow move, and yet Sonic Wind fizzled out?
>>534752407You sound like a doormat. The fact that you spend this much time thinking about Sonic fans is just plain strange anon. Are you autistic?
>>534751639Gold would be funny if not for the fact sheโs vaulted as Archieshit and also that her creator insists she is a dyke
>>534752407The only people who I will listen to are people with a further Japanese bias than myself. Everyone else is wrong.
>>534752865Because Sonic is the wind.
Did some artwork get pulled from gelbooru? I can't find a certain Rouge piece on there anymore
>>534752407they're too stupid
that's why Paramount would rather force slop down normie and autist throats
>>534752917Then you will continue to be ignored just like Sonic is by the Japanese people
>>534753150I don't use gelbooru so I wouldn't know
>>534751990I wonder if that guy's still commissioning?
>>534752865Let's be honest, Sonic Wind is a terrible name.
>>534752446>Sonic XNon-canon and OOC.
Rails has been oversaturated as a ship so much that when I see it I don't feel anything. There is no spice. The one trillionth image of Rouge forcing herself in Tails is nothing special or interesting. There needs to be new crackships.
>>534752326He looks like a pug. At least he was more like a Fox before.
>>534752865Could have something to do with it being used in more than one game and Sonic X. Where else did Sonic use Sonic Wind besides SA2?
>Sonic
>no Sonic Boom attack
What a joke
If you hate Sonurge it's because you hate character development
>>534753475I just saw a rule 34 of Silver fucking Kit so thatโs my new go to
>>534753802character development isn't real
>>534753814Disgusting
Where
>>534753947I feel like she should have a Katana slung on her back
sega does not take sonic as anything beyond hellokitty. that has been the case since 06 flopped.
Sonurge haters should read a book
>>534754159She tried to kill him.
>>534752762New Soniclike, the original Toree was kind of crap but Toree 2 was good and Toree Saturn is really good. They got Johnny Gioeli to sing the final boss music too.
Sonurge haters should watch at least one enemies to lovers anime before shitting on it.
>>534754042https://rule34.xxx/index.php?page=post&s=view&id=14227922&tags=silver_the_hedgehog
Itโs really well drawn and makes me want more of itโฆnot enough to make a fucking X profile tho
>>534753814Was it made by martyjade23 by any chance?
>>534754241Can ya recommend me one?
>>534754242Is it Rudever this general has been talking about over and over?
any time silver gets something people will want it given to another character. is it just characterfag seething? is his purpose that poorly explained? or is it his lack of popularity working against him as usual?
>>534753475I take pride in being one of the original Railsfags 20+ years ago but it is a bit played out at this point. It doesn't bring me the joy it used to. Maybe if they interacted in a game again I'd change my mind.
>>534754213Ooh that looks fun maybe I'll give it a try
>>534754305It was and it was really well drawn
>>534754420Bro we don't want uwufication
>I need to verify my age to look at Sonadow porn
>but Sonails porn is uncensored
What is Xitter smoking
>>534754242>This artist isn't ba->Sonic.EXE>Cunt boy SonicThat's what I get for looking
>>534754801Isnโt it grand how weโre all so different?
>Let a female america writer control the narrative of ONE character
>Completely destroys the character
>Has fans who will defend the destruction she caused
>>534754241Hmm. I like Sonurge but I don't know if there's ever been an "enemies to lovers" anime I didn't think ended up being cringey as hell after they went that direction. And most of those feel more like Sonaze anyway, like Maou-sama.
Unless you wanna count Krillin and 18.
>>534752669Does it play anything like me Willy?
>>534755327Silver is dogshit no matter who's writing him and should never have come back after 06. Unnecessary extra hedgehogs should just die.
>>534752446>Sonic XIn character and within the official Sonic Team vision of canon.
I'm sorry but if you have a BMI over 25 then I really don't care what your opinions are on this franchise.
Surge lives to get breeded
>>534755510>Amyfag>thinks all of us would not benefit from her killing herself already
>>534755510That's not the point of the post retard
And Amy is so dogshit that they have to change her character completely every time, you fags want her serious and now you're back pedaling?
>>534755327>It was so annoying, how dare a male be angry at a female? it's scaring me i want him to be gay!
>>534755520Sonic Team didn't actually work on X. It just listed them for marketing purposes. They had next to nothing to do with it.
>>534755346Dedicated enemies to lovers romance anime always draw out the plot in the worst possible way.
Decapitate Whisper
Place her head on a spike
Burn her head
>>534755395More like "3D Sonic Rush with drop dash instead of boost button"
>>534755778Yes, 18 year old Korean girl with the handle Kosherea
I'm confused. Do windfags like Sonamy or not?
>>534756256Some do, some don't and insist it goes against the character.
So
No one is going to explain to me how this fangirl little bitch get to be part of the heroes? i mean we definitely could've had someone better?
>>534756256sonic has a boy's heart forever. and won't settle for yucky relationships no he is not going to "grow up". that's anti wind
>>534755327But then they get angry when Silver is mocked and dismissed as a bitchboy by the rest of the fandom.
Sa2 ruined Amy by giving her super speed out of nowhere and turning it into a hedgehog trait
Does anyone have the full pic or is it WIP?
>>534754410His eyes are drawn right if that's what you're asking
>>534756035>It was so annoying, how dare a male be angry at a female?Funny because it was the opposite that caused Silver to be fixed in the first place. And even funnier it was a similar event that caused Silver to be hated in the fandom that he was made into someone nicer. Turns out that people don't like new upstart assholes with little story no matter what year they come from
>>534754420Because Silver deserves nothing. Underbaked unnecessary character who helped bring about the dark ages of the franchise.
>>534751639>Gold with Canon Silver-like eyes.
>>534756702https://inkbunny.net/s/3638531
https://e621.net/posts/5763711
>>534756580multiplayer mode is not canon
>>534756845Silver's story in 06 sucks because it's trying to have themes over making any sense.
Why are you geeks so weird today?
>>534752907I feel she could theoretically return in IDW if Even pushed hard enough, but I don't know what kind of story Gold would offer without heavily rehashing her Archie one.
They should write Sonic like yume nikki
>>534756997"today"? I seen way worse, elaborate
>>534755327So, is there any Archie oldfag here? Were Archie discourses as exhausting as IDW's? Because I remember Sonic Boom criticisms were annoying, and the Xwitter geeks constantly harrasing the Boom staff about Sonamy.
>>534756256Play Sonic CD again and realize your question is meaningless.
Long answer: Sonamy is essential to both characters AND Sonic CD is as far as that relationship ever needs to be "solidified".
Anything else is like asking for a cinematic "Sonic and Robotnik meet for the first time" game or some shit like that. It isn't necessary.
>>534756845Nobody likes or respects Silver no matter how he's portrayed. Doesn't matter if he's rude or uwu because you're either dealing with an asshole or a faggot.
>>534756580SA2 absolutely jumped the shark with Amyโs random super speed. one minute sheโs a civilian with a hammer, the next sheโs outpacing military vehicles like itโs no big deal. the hedgehog-speed retcon was always flimsy, but slapping it onto Amy with zero buildup reeked of lazy writing. At least characters like Shadow had biological experimentation as an excuse, Amy just got a free power-up because SEGA couldnโt think of a better way to force her into the plot.
Tails deserves nothing actually
He deserted during the war
Coward
>>534750643Best and cutest girl.
Tails is cute and cool and smart! ^-^
He deserves love!
>>534756906>explain Silver>no he deserves nothingYou retards are in a hamster wheel
>>534757201People who argue against game characterizations will literally always be antagonized because this is a videogame series
>>534757201Most of Archie was just the Ian Flynn cult before it was cancelled and Gamefags cheered and dabbed.
>>534752446>Sonic X established that Sonic doesn't have a phoneYeah. But then Sonic Forces, and before that Sonic Chronicles, established Sonic has a communicator so he and Tails and be in check. So I imagine Sonic Team just throw that idea to the side.
It happens.
>>534757201Archie was worse if anything. You don't know horror until you've encountered two Archie fans arguing about Sonic canon or ships in 1999.
>>534757113I can tell you just wanted to post this webm really badly since everything you said makes no sense
I like yume nikki though
Will Frontiers 2 be a 10/10 game?
>>534757350Don't lump the rest of us in with Silverschizo, he's literally been whining about him for over a year because he has nothing else going on. Just report and ignore.
>>534751639This user is treating Gold as a generic character that could replace another, rather than what she truly is.
Gold is meant to be an alternative universe version of Silver, based on that idea Evan was writing about the counsil experimenting with the "Time Devourer" or whatever it was called.
She is not from Silver's timeline.
In the user's defense, she has a better explanation for who she is than 06 Blaze has.
>>534757350No I made it clear I want off the silver hamster wheel. Vault him
>>534752446You're arguing the wrong point. Sonic would have a flip phone if he was forced to have one and his texts would be indecipherable.
>>534757503It will be a 10/10 game to reviewers and a 9.5/10 game to the fandom for a short time until the honeymoon phase is over and then people reevaluate the game
>>534757703>It will be a 10/10 game to reviewersLOL
>>534757503probably it will get a number above to whatever the score for frontiers has currently but that's it. I am sure they are gonna improve a lot from what is there but I am not expecting something that mindblowing to be a 10 10
>>534757668You can't, you have to have a psychic, a time traveler and a hopeful character somewhere in a story, if you vault him, we're just going to have another 'him' and it's probably going to be more woke.
Why did Evan make Gold taller than Silver?
The only way for "Frontiers 2" to be better than the original is Kishimoto not directing it. He is a competent man, but the best games were not directed by him.
>>534757898Silver is Evan's wimpy dorky goofy husbando. have you not been paying attention?
>>534757569post more bump and her huge bump, she is so cute
>>534757889>you have to have a psychic, a time traveler Uhhhhh no?
>hopefully characterAny number of existing characters can fill that role, including Sonic
>>534757898She felt like it.
>>534757946I don't really care about Frontiers 2 since most of the dialog will be the characters spouting references like they're from Family Guy.
>>534757991I would if you don't post that ugly shit ever again
Reminder that the whiteboard is still open https://magma.com/d/i1csBn42nS
Come draw something and have fun
>>534758232Draw some non-graphic smut!
>>534757946Kishimoto hates boost and loves Mega Drive Sonic though...
>>534757808I hope the level design will be better. Frontiers' level design is just regular Sonic stages sloppily pasted onto an open world environment with no adjustment to the level design. You have to look for obscure entrances to those floating levels and you can very easily exploit them by just entering them from the exit where the memory token is. They really need to rethink that somehow.
>>534758080I'm sure Flynn has heard the criticisms enough. Sonic Dream Team and Shadow Generations have even less references than he usually do, and his writing in IDW lately has been dropping them.
They are still around, guy cannot contain himself, but I'm pretty sure if some big schucks on the geek site complain enough, he listens.
>>534758297How does that work
Amyโs entire 'character arc' boils down to Sega realizing she was too annoying as a Sonic-obsessed stalker, so they stripped away her personality, gave her a hammer she barely uses, and called it 'growth', yet she still has less narrative purpose than fucking Big the Cat, a character literally created as a fishing joke.
Think about Amyfags. Big has unironically contributed more to the franchise (comics, Frontiers Easter eggs) while Amyโs biggest "moments" are either being kidnapped or yelling at Sonic
>>534758478>I'm sure Flynn has heard the criticisms enough.He was aware of the criticism when he was still the main writer on IDW. He doesn't give a fuck, dude.
>>534758556I think you geek are going anachronistic with yar criticisms' of the pink girl.
>>534758556You can say whatever you want. Uwuver is here to stay because people like it more than Silver.
>>534758131Amy's bubblegum rump is the best thing you'd look at.
Sonouge matches the wind concept best. Sonurge too.
>>534758715Uwuver gets Silver mocked more than he already was.
>>534754420All of the above.
1. Silver getting top billing in a game while most other characters were getting cut, downsized, or otherwise mistreated rubbed long time fans the wrong way.
2. Silver had a "purpose" in 06 but they keep just...arbitrarily writing him back in, despite the fact that he shouldn't even exist anymore if he keeps changing the "past" over and over. Nobody can tell what his role in the cast is supposed to be other than "milquetoast knuckles". The "uwuification" is literally people trying to fix the problem of Silver being a pointless member of the cast. Cause yeah, if you keep pushing that until he turns into Jacuzzi Splot, maybe I WOULD like him, but then you've created a new character.
3. Obviously there's the anti-friends fags, but the forced nonsense connection with Blaze, who was already a quick fan favorite, felt cynical even to the fans who do like the big cast, and the careless retcon felt like an insult to people who actively tried to stay abreast of the canon.
Silver was sent out to die like a live service hero shooter in 2025. His fans are mostly the people who feel bad for him because of that.
>>534758651If ya geeks managed to convince the artists to draw Silver with his original eyes, I'm sure y'll can convince him to drop the references. Just keep comparin' it to Family Guy, and I'm sure that Chaomix schmuck's trash content will reach him.
>>534757991>>534758445AMY'S BUBBLEGUM FLAVOURED BUTT
>>534758945Getting to be playable is far from what I would call "mistreated", although I am saying this with the foresight of over 15 years of the characters getting ignored and mistreated for real as a result of this retarded criticism.
>>534754152That has always been the case. Japanese marketing for Sonic in the 90s focused on making him cuter than he was in game, in line with other Japanese mascots
>>534758080>he doesn't skip all the cutscenes
>>534758862Sonouge would only work if you made Sonic horny which at that point, you've just recreated Lupin III, so of course he'd be after the Fujiko character.

>>534759338Amyfags will never beat the besties allegations.
>>534758945Silver and Blaze getting along isn't a retcon it's just so pretentious, antithetical to her characterization, and disconnected to her lore that it feels like one.
>>534759681Best character
>>534759159Well unfortunately the anti-friend-fags won, although we did at least get Unleashed out of the bargain.
>>534759487The retcon is "ignore Sonic Rush happened". Which people try to justify by saying it somehow takes place afterwards and that Blaze got sent to the Sol Dimension and lost her memory but, again, that's also frustrating because she's explicitly designed as Alternate Universe Sonic.
Amy will never beat my meat

>>534760179It's canon since Sonic says it in IDW.
>>534760179Find a geniune problem in your life, Krack.
>>534759963I think Maekawa tried to reconcile Rush Blaze into 06's story by implying that by sealing herself in an alternate dimension and with that timeline being erased at the end, Blaze would be reincarnated in the Sol Dimension
As you said it's unsatisfying since Blaze was specifically created to parallel Sonic and this would make her 06 self her original self
>>534760370Yall sound like yall have a differint kind a fatigue

Hey /sthg/
Is it morally ethical to fuck with GameStop to get items at reduced prices? GameStop frequently fucks up online orders and in the past I've taken advantage of that to get items for discounted rates on video games. I also have traded in fake video games in the past to further discount new video games. On one hand I suck, but on the other hand GameStop is kinda at fault for not training employees properly and sending their own customers games in mediocre condition or just sending them incorrect shit.
Aw yeah Tailsposting letโs go
>>534759963Yeah Maekawa just did not give a single fuck about the original intent of Blaze and wanted another tragic romance story. It's especially fucked because Blaze has a dualism/ star-crossed lovers relationship with Sonic and Blaze.
>>534760892What's your problem mista?
>>534760908>Is it morally ethical to fuck with [insert big company here]?Yes, always
guys, i'm feeling pretty winded right now
Sonails foursome
>>534761018I don't think Maekawa had much of a say over which characters were in 06 or not. I think that's the kinda thing the director or producer chooses, someone higher up than a writer
I watched the Silver analysis video the other day. I have more appreciation for his story in 2006 now, and I also understand his character more, as well as how it connects to the rest of the game. Unfortunately of the three stories I think it's the least exciting, and these plot points and their meanings weren't communicated well (at least to me) while simply playing the game. So it's the least exciting of the three stories to me. Of course it goes without saying at this point, but I wish it had more work put into it
There are also the problems with whether time is erased or not and whether Blaze's dimension already existed, which is a big issue. He makes a good point at the end of the video when he says that it would be lame to take away all of Silver's character development from his debut game in his later appearances, but that's what I understand the ending of the game to be, and it matches with Sonic Team making ESP Silver a separate character in Runners. As far as I can tell there are (at least) two Silvers, and one is from a deleted timeline
>>534760492Sonic 06 originally had Blaze recognize Sonic, though. So how does that make sense?
>>534760773I haven't seen that one, thank you. Also I am gonna ignore whatever you said
How do you prefer your action smears in Sonic comics?
>>534761320How do you know that?
>>534761320Do we know for sure that line was meant for Wave Ocean? I found a video of the Japanese version, but the lines are in a different order
>>534761018I'm more of a Sonamy guy but the wind and fire thing with Sonic and Blaze works the same way the wind and earth thing works with Sonic and Knuckles, and I don't know what the fuck Silver's deal is supposed to be, like he has ESP but it doesn't thematically work well with anything in particular.
Silver would probably work better if he was just an anime boy with his own franchise. Wasn't his gameplay a result of Sega scrapping and reusing stuff from another game about psychic soldiers they were working on or something? Weird shit.
>>534761420Current manga trends say D
IDW fans want to lynch me because I compared Stanley to Penders.
>>534755587But Flynn and Stanley definitely are both above that
>>534761208I kinda want more pics with all four together now lol
>>534748780Which one of you assholes blew up the mansion?
>>534761420While I haven't touched the comics at all, I can tell you that both C and B are kinda confusing. I think C would work better if it was animated and B looks like they are moving their arm up and down a lot. D is fine and I think A fits more to the sonic artstyle, kinda reminds me of Sonic Battle's art
>>534761803Me too, modern x classic is cool. I don't like strict divisions, though I understand why they exist
There is nothing which indicates that Blaze is from the future and we've gotten hard de-confirmations from both Iizuka and Ian.
>>534761451>Mephiles scene with "blue hedgehog">in-game Wave Ocean intro lines where Blaze mentions "blue hedgehog" and "Iblis Trigger"We can only presume yes.
>>534761586>wasn't SilverYes. IIRC 06 used a new (to Sonic Team) physics engine which is why so much of the game is jank.
Tails the potential hero vs Amy the potential girlfriend

>OH DARK THE DARKNESS THAT DOZES IN THE DUSK
How did Shadow's character become popular when his first theme song had lyrics like this?
>>534762097I think Sonic Team did use Havok engine on that Astro Boy game they made before 06. So I assumed they would have some experience with it beforehand. Unless they switched engines midway through which caused the physics to be shit. It wouldn't surprise me given how crap the development was but that was never documented before as far as I know
>>534762030Cool!
>>534762047I don't really know how to feel about it. I liked when it was just an art style difference, it was cleaner and made more sense. Generations and Forces made a huge mess. But at this point they exist as their own entities and there are some aspects of their interactions that I like, so whatever. Forces had the right idea and I don't mind them making games like Superstars, but as I said they handled it poorly
>>534761807Work on your stance. Don't twist your hands like that.
>>534762226I thought most of her nsfw art is solo, since most people just likes to lewd surge
>>534762341I don't think you understand how much Rush fans hate the Silver/Blaze dynamic. Blaze doesn't act like herself at all.
>>534762452I believe 06 was supposed to run on hedgehog engine like unleashed initially
>>534762452Fifth Phantom Saga as well. I guess they used all their ideas for that game on Silver
>>534762639I've never heard this before and it doesn't seem to make much sense given that I don't think it was done yet
>>534762513The most common pairing with her is Sonic himself, but I think generally she has a lot of solo and random lesbo art.
>>534762618I don't think you understand how much NOBODY CARES about Rush and what Rushfags have to say
>>534761829One of these two, I'm sure.
We will rebuild stronger..
>>534762226Nobody cares for Kit :(
>>534762882>NOBODY CARES about Rush Yet Blaze is still from another dimension guarding the Sol Emeralds.
>>534762978Kit needs more love
>>534762456Yeah I don't know either. Can't we just have both simultaneously, I mean some classic Sonic art had more pseudo realistic settings as well, there was the Man of the Year animation, I think Sonic's world was always meant to be a mix of surreal landscapes and pseudo realism, the only times they went full realistic were Shadow and 06 especially
I think at this point the divide mostly exists to keep both designs alive which is cool, I prefer the modern designs but the classics look pretty cool too. I don't think we can have both unless we create a third design that combines elements but that would be messy. So having the different designs in their own continuities is cool and keeps everyone happy. The problem with the split is that limits both continuities and also creates this weird competition that could cannibalize the series
>>534762882Stop before you set off the rushfags!
photobashing Shadow Gens with Frontiers
>>534762639Oh yeah you're right, I forgot about that.
>>534762741Hedgehog Engine was in development for 06, they wouldn't finish it in time so the team working on the engine split off from the main team to work on it separately for a future project, that project became Unleashed. Then they probably switched from a beta hedgehog engine to the Havok engine they were using in Fifth Phantom Saga and the Astro Boy game I mentioned. This transition is probably of the crappy physics
I don't think Surgefags even care about Surge. They just like the enemies to lovers trope and refuse to watch something that's actually about that
>>534762984Yea I get it but to replace her with comic OC?? Yeah I don't think so

>>534763354Havok is not a game engine. It just handles in-game physics. Dark Souls games use Havok and they have very silly ragdoll physics
>>534763442Anon. Their point is that to keep Blaze in character its preferable to give Silver someone else suited to that role instead of changing who Blaze is.
It's not like there's some kind of automatic disease on Gold. You're not a monkey. Think critically.
Surge grabbing Surge's massive butt tightly
>>534763442You dumb fuck. The whole problem is that sticking Blaze with Silver is equal to just deleting her because whenever she's around Silver she becomes somebody else.

>>534763095Completely agree. Maybe in the past there could have been different and better ways to handle it, but this is how it is now, so it's better to keep the separation. They could still make Modern games with classic aesthetics (I suppose there's Lost World, but I don't really like that, I think Adventure and Heroes are better examples even if they're pre-Generations), maybe ithey could make a more realistic setting for a Classic game at some point
>>534763354Oh, I always thought the Hedgehog Engine started development around the same time or shortly after 2006, so they always knew it wasn't going to be ready for that game. I should really look into the game's development history more
I also thought Colors didn't use the Hedgehog Engine since that's what everyone always said but I recently learned that it actually did

https://nitter.poast.org/Sajidur78/status/1350177412168835073
>>534765127 Hedgehog Engine is a game engine, not a graphics engine. There are many parts to it, a few being: Universe (Actor library), Mirage (Graphics engine), Sparkle (Particle engine, replaced since LW), Database (Filesystem library, replaced since LW).
When Colors was in development Sonic Team started refactoring parts of the engine for more flexibility. The engine was slightly refactored during LW's development, then during Forces' development they re-wrote the graphical part of the engine, and slightly refactored other parts.
>>534764859What if you slammed your neck against the pointed end of a knife?
>>534765198>>534765262Wow that's cool, thanks for the info
>>534765262>>534765469Something I still don't understand is if it used Mirage on the Wii in any way, or if it wasn't used at all. If it did then that would explain why its graphics are so much better compared to the other Sonic games on the Wii, like Unleashed Wii doesn't look anywhere near as good as Colors

>>534770017She's earnest, but she's just too incompetent to comprehend what it actually means. Her idea of "Silver being serious" is just writing him the same but with a glare drawn on him instead.
>>534770053That's Lost World, not Forces
>>534770017She'll write him like he was in 06 at best
>>534770012Blaze was in her dimension for all of Forces so that's even less for him to do.
>>534770219Well that's the ideal in terms of characterization
>>534770151Lost World was funny bad, Forces was depressing bad
>>534770017I genuinely cannot bring myself to hate Evan because it's very clear that Silver was just her comfort character and she had no preparation for character autists at all. For Ian I have no mercy but she legitimately did not know any better and Sega made no effort to reel her in.
That said. She still has yet to ever write Silver in-character. She's just not the person for the job.
She might have been better off as a fanfic writer. Then she wouldn't have fans breathing down her neck for ruining their favorite.
>>534770271Something between Sonic Colors and Sonic Rivals 2.

If evan writes a silver game it will 100% be a repeat of 06 silver walking into walls and needing blaze or amy to help him make decisions
Wait maybe that's why Tyson Hesse isn't working on TailsTube anymore. Maybe he's working on Frontiers 2
>>534770816I didn't know she felt so strongly about a television station.
>>534770707She's canceling them over the Skydance merger. Sonic Team barely looks at the professional output of the comic idiots and definitely don't see the shit they put out on social media unless it makes a fuss as big as Ian's Bumblekast answers.
>>534771132>She's canceling them over the Skydance merger.I assumed it was just the usual stuff with the Jews/Muslims war
>>534769254It's a damned if you succeed and damned if you fail situation with Silver.
>>534770472I'm surprised Ian got off as easily as he did. I don't see how abusing your clout as the main sonic story guy to prop up your podcast where people pay you to give bullshit answers about which sonic characters are gay is acceptable in any way. I would've cut all ties with him, and I don't even hate the guy's writing.
>>534771401Tumblr is boycotting them because Skydance is aligned with Trump and one of the conditions of the merger is the end of their DEI programs.
>>534771696Movie Amy won't be a gurlboss?!
>>534771696Huh, that's surprising lol. But yeah seeing as they failed to boycott them over the war and how they didn't even react to them using AI to make the Sonic movies, I doubt this boycott will amount to anything
>>534771813Depends on how deep they were into production. The execs could be convinced to cheapskate and not rewrite the script if they were late enough in, especially by any holdouts that escape getting fired.
>>534770472I would take Evan over Ian easily. It's not even a question. Evan (from her perspective at least) tossed away her own perception of her favorite character because fans were starting to get fed up with it. No mandates have to come down on her to make this happen. She did it on her own. Based.
Ian, to this very day, actively fights again having to portray Sonic as "the wind" or Shadow as "cold" even though these characters have literally always been this way outside of western media (including comics he wrote). Ian seems to think he has some understanding about the idea take on these characters that Sega is "mishandling".
There's really no problem with writers putting their stamp on the character. I don't think so at least.
>>534771813I almost hope she is at this point to prove to you retards that โgirlbossesโ are not in fact DEI but a totally normal concept thatโs existed well before the current political climate
>>534772084>I would take Evan over Ian easily.Evan is the reason why we got three entire arcs of the Neo Diamond Cutters accomplishing next to nothing but petty melodrama by themselves. I'd rather just get a completely new writer that can actually allow the characters to do things without any crying and angst involved.

I think more people should understand that Ian didn't even want IDW to be canon in the first place. The "OOC" rage he has been getting is mis aimed. He never considered his Sonic to be the "real" one. As you guys love to point out, he never even thought he was writing SALLY (his favorite female character) in-character. I don't see the point in screaming constantly about how evil he was when, at the time IDW was being written, he did not know he was writing stories in the game canon.
The entire dilemma about Sonic hating murder is broken by Secret Rings. Everyone knows this. But secret rings isn't relevant to IDW. IDW was its own product.
Ian is not the first writer to completely change a major detail about a character to service his story. Maekawa did it years before he ever got to work on Sonic. How many people (who aren't blazefags) will get mad at Maekawa for intentionally writing characters OOC to fit his plot?
>>534774856>Comic one-shot also had Silver at his cringiest to the point where it caused even Silverfags like Gabs to hate how he was written.

>>534775412The issue had him crying like a BITCH. Silverfags would have to be masochists to take that shit with some kind of pride.
>>534775342>Maekawa did it years before he ever got to work on Sonic.He didn't. The quote from that interview is decontextualized. In that interview he said he DIDN'T do that.
I think IDWfags don't understand just how frustrating uwuver is. If this happened to Shadow, Evan would have to avoid public appearances.
So is Station Square in the United Federation, or is it in some other unnamed country, or is it like a city-state?
>>534775342I still think itโs crazy how apparently SEGA of Japan *AND* SEGA of America didnโt tell the IDW people they were writing canon material for years.
>>534776424That is what bothers me the most. They basically threw those people to the fucking wolves
>>534776208I always thought of them as separate, but it could be both idk
>>534776424Imagine Sega decides your fanfiction is canon and now the whole fandom has decided you are the enemy
>>534776568I feel like it only happened either because of or as the prelude to them bringing on Ian as the EN scriptwriter.
>>534776208Trying to map out some of the "Modern" places is a nightmare compared to how relatively simple it is for the Classc era. The only Modern games with sensible maps are Sonic Adventure 2 and Sonic Advance 2.
If you take Sonic Chronicle as canon (it isn't, but it was supposed to be), Green Hill, Mystic Ruins, Central City, and Station Square are all part of the same landmass. That would narrow it down to South Island. But that can't be, because if the Adventure 2 "capital city" is Central City, then South Island / Green Hill is elsewhere. Don't get me started on Sonic Battle.
>>534776424I told you guys IDW was canon in 2018/2019 and you didn't want to listen to me
>>534777043To be fair I feel like Classic is so easy to map because itโs still just the islands.
>>534777054Ian said they weren't canon, literally.
>>534777043Chronicles is like the dragon ball gt of Sonic. Clearly not meant to be an AU but it needs to be by necessity
>>534777231Yeah, that's what you told me back then. I don't know why people believe what Ian says in his podcast. They should have had the foresight to figure out that they weren't writing Archie anymore, and Ian's decision to make it a Forces sequel that references game events makes me think Ian was even trying to make it canon to begin with
>>534777079SEGA learned all the wrong lessons from Boom and to a lesser extent prior shows.
>>534777043The map in Forces is also very bad
I tell people Prime is canon every day and they abuse me! One day you'll see. You'll all see!
>>534777043>Don't get me started on Sonic BattleWhat's wrong with it?
>>534777520The thing thatโs funny about Prime being canon is it doesnโt even matter seeing as the whole Shatterverse thing is resolved and therefore it is unsurprising that it is never brought up again since โRemember whenโ is the lowest form of conversation.
>>534777349or because it was the latest thing and it was being heavily marketed?
Shadamy and Shadouge are OOC crackships and the shippers should just admit that they hate Shadow instead of disgracing him with their projection fantasies.
>>534777520>>534777659>still thinking it can be canon just because LITERAL WESTERN WESTERN MEDIA staff said soI'll make you see. I'll make you ALL see.

>>534777674Now I haven't read Archie so correct me if I'm wrong but aren't we talking about the guy who decided to make a years long adaptation of Unleashed in like 2014
Shadally is out of character. Shadow would never love her. Never ever. He would NEVER love her. SHE IS NOT CLEAN ENOUGH FOR HIM.

>>534778086uhh yes? but Evan has been writing for almost 6 years now. she could have moved on from the theme anytime she wanted.
>>534777929You'll know I'm right when Sonic brings up the events of Prime while talking to himself about nothing in the next mainline game
>>534777810Shouldn't you be grooming kids on Twitter?
>>534777858Rent free.
>>534777894Shadamy is OOC. Shadamy turns Shadow into an edgy Sonic when in reality Shadow only ever loved Maria. Amy loves Sonic despite him not having any feelings for her. Shadamy is the destruction of both characters' canon characterizations.
Shadamyfags assume the character in pic rel would initiate kisses and other affectionate physical actions. They make superficial assumptions about him based on his design and voice, they think of him as a generic bad boy and run with that.
There's got to be some sort of cognitive dissonance in hardcore Shadamyfags. They think, "Sonic doesnโt reciprocate, so she needs to find another "Sonic" who will."
In reality, Shadow would be worse than Sonic at reciprocating Amy's affection. He simply freezes up when he's touched and he doesn't even realize he should be returning hugs. Sonic at least offers side hugs.
00's Amy would quickly become frustrated and angry with Shadow's aloofness. Does she even have the patience necessary to work with a person who's deeply traumatized and shuts down any attempts to care about him? I think she'd eventually end up snapping at him and he wouldn't bounce back from that very easily.
>>534778306>when Sonic brings up the events of PrimeThat will NEVER fucking happen, kek.
>>534778259Point was, if it's true that it was Ian who decided to make it a Forces sequel, then he made a decision that made it even more likely for it to be taken as canon
And then he went on to reference Tangle in Frontiers
Maybe Ian wasn't fully honest. Maybe SEGA really didn't consider it canon at the time, but he was making decisions that would make it more likely for it to be considered canon, or at least for it to not be considered not canon
>>534778313Not slurping the pasta
>>534777971I agreed that he argues with underage trannys on Twitter and should be doing that instead of this, I just also agree that Shadow ships in general are dumb (including Shadria, since theyโre more like siblings).
>>534778405He is writing for the games now, and the comics get screened by sega. what difference would it make being canon or not?
>>534778306>"Heha! Water? Like that time Knuckles the Dread!">"Groan... Metal things? I bet the Egg Council.">"Tails... If only I made up my Nine sooner..."

Stop laughing. I am not crazy. Sonic Prime will be acknowledged and it will be very important to the lore of Sonic.
>>534778409>I have no rebuttal because I know you're correct so I will continue to spam my crackshipFTFY
So is 3D Blast canon or is it not canon?
What out of continuity characters would you want to debut in IDW?
For me, I want Topaz.
>>534778549This conversation started with someone claiming IDW staff isn't to blame for Sonic being OOC in IDW because they didn't know IDW was going to be canon. I'm responding to that. Ian should have realized that since it wasn't Archie he should have been more careful with characterization. He should have realized that since SEGA wanted it to be even more in line with the games there was a chance for it to be connected to later games. And he probably did realize that making it a direct sequel to Forces significantly increased the chances of it getting connected to future games

>>534777894Correct, and haters of it don't understand that people and relationships gradually evolve over time, and are also against the whole notion of character growth in the first place.

Only Silvazefags have a problem with this.
>>534780679Evan said Gold wouldn't fuck Silver
>>534780679Evan literally said Gold was a dyke who would view Silver as a little brother figure or rival rather than a prospective partner
>>534748691 (OP)>AndTails>IanThere shall be a day where both these faggots boil alive.
Evan did not say "Gold wouldn't fuck Silver". She said Gold wouldn't develop a crush on him. You can fuck someone without loving them.
>>534778313>despite him not having any feelings for herThat's false.
>>534780746She also said she sees Blaze and Silver as sibling coded
>>534780953Sonic HATES Amy; everything else is HEADCANON. NOW DIE.
>>534780679I loathe 06 and Silvaze but Gold doesn't fit. Removing Blaze changes the entire story; the "blue hedgehog" scene doesn't even make sense, either.
What would Sonic do if eggman was finally captured or killed
>>534778313>despite him not having any feelings for herThat's true.

I'm starting to wonder if Gold is meant to be Evan herself.
>>534781276Evan would fuck Silver (although sheโd probably prefer if he was in his UwUver form).
>>534780926Who makes that art? what are the circumstances that led to the creation of that art and how did they feel while working on it?
who consumes that art? how do they feel after consuming it? and why do they have it saved on their devices?
>>534781251Amyfags aren't the brightest.
>>534781361You discovered internet yesterday or what? Do you want all the art of the world to be pedonigger cute shit? Also leave me alone in my balls roasting session.
>>534781276Gold was supposed to be just female Uwuver. Her being a bisexual lesbian was low-key supposed to contrast Evan seeing Silver as a homo.
>>534781526Wouldnโt that mean, if Gold is 100% just Silverโs female distaff counterpart, that, in Evanโs mind, he would be a bisexual male with a male lean, rather than a complete 100% homo?
>>534781526Man. Even today I really enjoy the Gold storyline in Archie, but it's soured by the fact that it's built on Evan's obnoxious foundation for Silver. It was really sweet. If I can shut off the part of my brain that is thinking about the relationship between the comics and the games.

>>534781605I don't even think Evan ever saw Gold as bisexual since Evan only drew and mentioned Gold's preference for women, never men.
>>534781807I couldโve sworn the intent was that sheโd be bi with a female lean as opposed to a fullblown dyke.
>>534781639It makes tailspedos seethe so it's based
>>534781889Yes, Evan said Gold was a female-leaned bisexual, but still, Evan never listed what guys Gold would like, so she was basically just a lesbian.

Sonamy is in a weird place.

In Sonic Boom they were basically into each other.

Were Shadow and Rouge good additions to the cast?
>>534784242This is literally the only Rouge character trait that survived into Prime
>>534784071She's either a completely sexless and pure doll or she's a total monster who caters to your carnal desires in the sack, there's no in-between.
>>534784108get her some gloves too
>>534784242Sonic, the ladies guy, enjoys the flirting.
>>534783862It wouldn't be a problem if Shatougefags would stay in their lane and stop insisting their OOC ship is canon.
>>534784071She loves softcore, but leaves markes when kissing necks
>>534784310If someone did this to me I would kiss them on impulse and ruin our friendship.
>>534784292Go back to /v/ and tend to your failed thread
>>534784292Groundbreaking but ultimately doomed the franchise to cyclically rise and fall trying to recreate its success, failing, retreating, then trying again.
>>534784365Shadouge is canon, the games make it easy. You're the one who has to cope over a 20+ year old game and cartoon.
>>534784292I'd say there were the last new characters that contributed to the cast.
Rouge and Shadow need more out of a relationship than just sex, they both need emotional intimacy in a way they cannot provide one another. Shadamy and Sonouge would provide this better

if Sonic is the wind, what are Shadow and Silver?
>>534786752The ultimate life form and a cute babby cinnamon roll
>rouge had a few one nights with Shadow but they both went separate ways unless it is business related
>Amy explored her sexuality with Surge after years of being friendzoned by Sonic. Surge initiated it, and Amy was confused by the feeling she had and why she didn't resist it
>Rouge Seduces Sonic and both have a real emotional connection that neither has ever had before in life, that is why it is called love and is what can happen during sex
>Amy is sad over Sonic, seduces Tails once in secret, enjoys all of it, tells Tails he is grown up now and to not hold back
>Amy continues to drift, until she and Shadow cross paths again, usual Shadow Amy Shit happens, but over time Amy starts getting feelings for him, their. chemistry is different.

You're all a bunch of nonfans. Longclaw is meant to be the specific owl represented in Labrynth Zone in Sonic 1.
Not a joke. Not headcanon.
>>534787137OOC you don't understand Shadow at all and it shows. This excuse to prop up shatouge degrades Shadow's character and his appeal.
A happy go lucky guy that gets angry and vengeful because he lost someone, and then becomes all friendly and happy again when he finds new people to care about is simple and one dimensional, even if not a bad character. It's human, relatable, and easily understandable because of that.
A character who is simply unable to feel or understand the purpose of life beyond the goal he was created for, and struggles to comprehend this even as he has someone guide and explain the value of beauty and meaning of life is complex, and difficult to relate to because of how much it differs from how normal people think and behave. This is part of why stories about robots and Ai are so intriguing, you have to try and relate to something that doesn't think, act, or feel like you, and that's what gives them depth.
You've managed to somehow come to the conclusion that a character acting like a typical grief stricken human guy is deep and nuanced, despite being one of the most straightforward and easy to understand tropes in existence.
It's like those people that couldn't wrap their head around why Shadow is still confused and irritated before Maria's death, because they themselves wouldn't be. They can't personally empathize with Shadow and it drives them mad because they can't handle an inhuman character.
>>534787956Shut up faggot
>>534787956ok but thats not as cool. the mystery of classic sonic locales makes them cool. labyrinth is one of my favorite zones because of that
>>534788019Too late. You hate Sonic. Go join the archiefags.
Isn't it in-character for Rouge to manipulate the memory of Maria against Shadow if it serves her?
Rouge is also wholly on the side of good while Shadow isn't.
>>534787063sonic can't swim dummy
>>534788228>Rouge is also wholly on the side of goodRouge only serves her own interests. It's in her interests to serve the government as a spy. and in return they turn blind eye to her robbing jewelry shops
>>534788105This is pretty punny if you think about it
Shadouge hate is so fucking forced. You pretend that Shadria is this mighty ship that matters. It's so simple. Rouge is the girl that is closest to Shadow and has spent the most time with him. It's part of the trifecta. Internal 06 documents confirm she loves him. She compares herself to Amy in terms of her relationship with Shadow. You completely miss the point of the characters because YOU are spiteful about how YOUR stupid crackship isn't respected by the community.
Why hasn't Sonic learned to swim yet? Is he just really fucking heavy?
>>534788647Weight doesn't determine the ability to swim.
>>534788647The Wind cares not for the whims of water.
Is it just me or are so called "windfags" attacking Shadouge because they see it as "Archie"?
>>534783714>>534784365shadow isnt real and hes not going to fuck you. shadow wouldnt defile maria like that anyway.

>>534788582>Rouge is the girl that is closest to Shadow and has spent the most time with himThat would be Maria, dumb shatougefag. None of your cope proves that Shadow has any feelings towards Rouge. She is his coworker and at best an ally, not his lover. Calling Shadria a crackship is retarded melty nonsense because it is canon and Shadow and Maria's relationship was inspired by a romance manga. Rouge comparing herself to Amy is the only thing you got right considering both Sonic and Shadow harbor no feelings toward Amy or or Rouge. Shadow will never love Rouge nor will show any amount of visual affection to her like Maria. Shadow Generations ends with Rouge slurping up Shadow's tears meant for Maria, and Dark Beginnings has Rouge herself admitting Maria is the only one who will ever change him. You lost.
>>534789103Before we "Debate" (I'll crush you) how does it feel knowing that your pairing will ALWAYS be irrelevant and the rest of the fandom is begging for Shadow to just get over his dead SISTER? Hmmm?
>>534789168To play Devilโs Advocate, the supposed majority of the fandom could just be WRONG, could they not?
I'm done hurting myself over this dogshit franchise. The people working on this franchise ruined it and will never give me what I want. Sonic Adventure 2 was my first Sonic game and Shadow Generations will probably be my last.
Sayonara, /sthg/.
>>534789340See you tomorrow.
>>534789340This is a baitpost.
>>5347891684 crying shatamyfags and shatougefags do not represent the fandom. The majority of the fandom tends to be wrong about most Sonic things because they do not understand Sonic as the creators do. Everybody was overjoyed to see Shadow and Maria's relationship grow in Sonic 3, Dark Beginnings, and SXSG and they want more of it. Anybody who wants Shadow to move on from Maria doesn't understand Shadow whatsoever. They want an edgy relatable damaged guy who can be "fixed"; that is not Shadow.
Don't forget. You're here forever
Amy is more like Maria than Rouge
Rouge has better unexplored chemistry with Sonic
>>534789731Fuck off.
>>534789586The WHOLE fandom hates how you intentionally ignore Shadow and Maria being siblings. The whole point of his game was to have him finally move on. The next game showed his new dynamic with those he was close with. You want to shut down his development. End of story.
>>534789586Still donโt understand how this justifies viewing Maria as Shadowโs romantic interest. Not that I disagree that Rouge isnโt a romantic interest either. But the way I see it, Shadow should just be incapable of romantic inclinations altogether.
>>534789914>inb4 they both get mad at you for this take
>>534789904>Shadow and Maria being siblingsNot a thing.
Maekawa could come out tomorrow and say his original intent for SA2 was that it was just a story with no deeper meaning beyond how good triumphs over evil and maybe also how grief ruins people and people would still read further into it
>>534789904ill say it again
Amy is more like Maria than Rouge
Cream is more like Maria than both of them even
it must suck being so angry every day
>>534790310>Amy>Cream>Like MariaMaria is one of a kind. Nobody is like her. In any way. Not Amy. Not Cream. Certainly not Rouge. No other female character is even remotely similar or could ever compare.
>>534789904Shadow and Maria were never siblings. That's just your dumb westoid headcanon. Shadow's character isn't moving on because Maria is his driving force. Without Maria there is no Shadow. Shadow doesn't need to develop because he is as developed as a person like him would be and he remains near flawless for it. Your "development" is you wanting to turn him into a vulnerable relatable angst sexyman. You don't understand Shadow. Go back to reading Archie because all you want is bastardized versions of the characters.
>>534789914Shadow enjoys Maria and doesn't halt her advances. He listens to her and considers her words carefully. He enjoys her company where he doesn't let others in. Shadow loves Maria and he shows it through his actions. If you need a character to verbally confirm their love for another that's on you for being too autistic to read into social interactions.
>>534786752Sonic is the blue wind, Shadow is the black wind, and Silver is the white wind.
>>534790510Literally none of the things you described are indicative of romantic love exclusively. At this point, you just sound like a shipperfag trying to justify his headcanon.
if you just replace "maria/maria's" in all of krack's posts with "me/my" everything makes a lot more sense
>>534790408if you would stop self inserting as shadow when you make your statements you would see Amy and Cream are similar
>>534790651At risk of outing myself as a Newfag: Who the fuck is Krack?
>>534790734One of the most knowledgeable and insightful posters in this general
>>534790798I could do without the sarcasm.
I've noticed that Shadriafags tend to understand nothing about Sonic. They pretend they do. They literally go against official things like Shadow and Maria being siblings.
>>534790854I'm serious. She's also a good artist
>>534790734krack is the obnoxious shadria fag in the thread right now
>>534790854krack does know a lot about shadow but its countered by her incessant autistic shadria spam, because she self inserts as maria and wants shadow to fuck her
>>534790868Not to defend the other personโs viewpoint, as I am also anti-Shadria (albeit also NOT pro-Shadouge), but what the fuck officially says they have that sort of dynamic?

>>534790609Shadow gives Maria the freedom to do want she wants with him but nobody else receives that privilege. Shadow loves Maria and that is his love language. He is more tender towards Maria than anybody else this is canon.
Shadow is actually a Stoic Gigachad who mourns his dead girlfriend by never loving again and choosing to be a heroic yet dangerous warrior. Anyone who says otherwise is a secondary. This is the final truth nuke.
How would Shadow's story if instead of Maria there was another girl on the ARK? What if it was Amy? What if it was Cream? What if it was Rouge? What if it was Krack? What if it was Duofag post-transition?
>>534791152Shadow would never love any of the other people listed as intensely as Maria, obvs
>>534791239Shadow would never love any of the other people listed, period. Shadow loved Maria and nobody else is Maria.
>>534791239But he never gets to know Maria at all in this scenario. At least Amy parallels Maria in SA2, maybe she has a chance.
>>534791293So no one could ever be Maria enough for him, even if he doesn't know who Maria is?
>>534791293Youโre right, I misspoke. What I was trying to say is that even if Maria was replaced by some other girl on the ARK in every respect, he wouldnโt develop intense feelings for that girl, because she is Maria, and that is an obvious fact. I oversimplified that point too much. I apologize. And I kneel.
I'm so tired of hearing about Shadria and psme. Nobody cares about your shitty plot device
>>534791293Youโre right, I misspoke. What I was trying to say is that even if Maria was replaced by some other girl on the ARK in every respect, he wouldnโt develop intense feelings for that girl, because she is not Maria, and that is an obvious fact. I oversimplified that point too much. I apologize. And I kneel.
>>534791365Amy is not Maria. Nobody but Maria would have the touch that Maria had to activate Shadow's love.
>>534791494You understand Shadow and Maria. Thank you for being sensible.
>>534791573I see. So you think replacing Maria would be the exact same as removing Maria, right?
>>534791445I am LISTENING and I am LEARNING
>>534791785Wrong
You should be living and learning
>>534791753Yes and removing Maria would also be removing Shadow's true character.
>>534792012Would Shadow just kill himself with no Maria?
>>534792012Now that's something I didn't expect. I thought he could exist independently. What about removing Maria's death? Does that remove his true character as well? It's a very important even after all.
>>534792082That wouldn't be Shadow, apparently.
Oh my god? Why are we still acting like this is a sane debate? Shadow and Maria aren't in love. Jesus Christ you porn brained retards. You talk about the Japanese intention but you ignore the games. They were friends. Like brother and sister at most. Just stop. Stop.
>>534792387But they're clearly in love though?
>>534792012So would Shadow essentially just be a soulless robot if Maria didnโt exist? Would he actually be a willing bioweapon at that point?
>>534792082Shadow would never do something so foolish. Shadow would do what he wants but without Maria he would have nothing to inspire him nor a moral compass to follow.
>>534792108Shadow would still be Shadow if Maria didn't die. That is different from Maria never existing. He would be a somewhat more positive person in the future but remain essentially the same.
>>534792387Your sibling headcanon is just that. Headcanon. Disproved by the fact that Sonic Team created them as a tragic couple inspired by a romance manga.
>>534792535That's what I was thinking. But I also thought replacing Maria with someone vastly different, like Rouge for example, could influence him in different (not romantic) ways.
>>534792617>Tranny fanartI agree with you but would it kill ya to use something less fucking cringe as your example?
>>534792535Yes and no. Shadow wouldn't bend to the will of others. He would be a weapon in the sense that he would mercilessly kill anyone who defies him (the same as his canon counterpart) but he would have no endgoals other than to please himself.
>>534792774If he has no motivation or characterization then why would he have personal interests or goals at all. Maria gave him meaning in life. If he has no meaning, why would he seek to do anything, self-serving or otherwise? What would be the point?
>>534792768That pic is cute. How did you see that and think of gender transitions
>>534792617Nobody cares about your shitty manga that nobody read that you only spam as proof for your shitty retarded crackship. Why won't you leave? Do you just like ruining everything for me? Why can't you just accept that people like different ships. Why does everything have to be about Shadria to you? Stupid fucking crackship. I'm at my fucking limit. Go away. At least Maris learned to listen.
>>534792768There is nothing transexual about a loving couple having children and raising a happy family.
>>534792876Shadow would have respect for himself but yes he would lack motivation to seek out anything. The only actions he would carry out are defense or revenge if anybody slighted him.
>25 posts filtered in a row.
Ah, Krack must be active again.
Unironically all of you guys are idiots. If Maria did not exist, then Shadow, as we know him, would not exist. Simply because of simple cause and effect. Think about this logically. Maria not existing means she also isnโt terminally ill and Gerald is not obsessed with saving his granddaughter. Without that motivation, Gerald would never desire to achieve immortality. Without that motivation, he would have no incentive to actually work with the Government to create the Ultimate Life Form. For that reason, the Ultimate Life Form would never be perfected, and thus, Shadow would never be created. Ergo, without Mariaโs existence, Shadowโs existence fundamentally cannot be justified.
>>534792909>>534793056Itโs the disgusting artstyle
This general is probably so much more enjoyable if you actually like the canon
>>534793259It's a lot more tolerable if you just press F before you scroll down.
>>534793013This general is not your personal hugbox. I'm not obligated to entertain your crackship as you use it to trash on the canon ship that I hold so dear to me. Just because Shadria means nothing to your shipper brain doesn't mean that it doesn't matter to others. Go back to tumblr if you wish to see your crackship supported so much.
>>534793118Rent free.
>>534793189Love is not bound to time.
>>534793118How do you filter posts? Iโm getting sick of these annoying Shipping Wars.
>>534793123shadow cares about maria, yes. he loves her in a familial way, and she serves as his motivation for many of the things he does. there are some romantic undertones with their relationship, yes, but they are never shown to be perverse in nature
shadow is not your le ebin dream john wick sexyman stoic chad boyfriend who has no feelings other than muh dick and impregnates maria (who just serves as a vessel for you) with hoglets
>>534793258I think seething at trans shit too much made you mentally ill. That art style is cute
>>534793437Iโm not Krack. Iโm actually explaining the most direct connection between those two. Not to justify some shipping agenda, but in response to the people engaging in whatiffery about Mariaโs nonexistence and its effects on Shadow. The reality is that no Maria means no reason for Gerald to have done anything he did. Ergo, no Shadow. That was my only point.
>>534793387You install 4chanx and work from there.
>>534793573Gerald could be given another reason, we're already in what if territory after all
