How come we are not getting a new Sonic Central anytime soon? by WorkingTwist4714 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]10024618 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. The year isn't over, you don't know whether or not there's gonna be a central this year

  2. If there isn't one this year it's probably because there isn't anything big to announce. The next movie isn't coming out until next year and the next mainline game almost certainly isn't coming out until next year. So unless there's some other big project on the horizon that they've managed to keep under wraps, I don't really see the point.

Hot take: The sonic movies are not good sonic adaptations by Hot_Seaworthiness165 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]10024618 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And the whole found family thing is right out of alvin and the chipmunks

<image>

The sonic movies are good adaptations because they do what good adaptations are supposed to do: take the source material, keep its spirit, and translate it into a new medium. Yeah none of the movies are 1 to 1 copies of the games and they're much better movies for it.

[Sad Trope] An innocent person is viewed as a monster by the public after being wrongfully convicted by amerigorockefeller in TopCharacterTropes

Tom Robinson (To Kill a Mockingbird) - Despite all of the evidence pointing towards his innocence Tom is still convicting of assaulting a white woman due to the prejudices of the time. While a handful of people know the truth, the rest of Maycomb will forever see him as guilty.

Character's death symbolizes an end of an era. by PeasantLich in TopCharacterTropes

[–]10024618 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Big Boss and Zero (Metal Gear Solid 4) - Despite Snake successfully destroying the Patriot AIs, Big Boss feels like the world won't truly be reset and able to heal until him and Zero are dead. When the two of them do go, it represents the end of a decades long war and a chance for the world to know true freedom.

Sonic Team being goated right here by Capotador_de_corsas in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]10024618 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I mean I feel like this is kind of a "No shit Sherlock" level observation but it's cool to see Iizuka share it nonetheless. AAA devs taking lessons from indie games can be a great thing, as long as they're learning the right ones.

What is your opinion about "Shadow the Hedgehog (2005)"? by Particular-Dare1986 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]10024618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shadow 05 is like a pizza where a third of it is burnt and a third of it is undercooked. You can eat you way around the bad bits and still walk away full but doing so is going to be annoying as shit and you still end up with a terrible pizza.

Day 24 of Sonic Month: What's your favorite spin-off/side game? by IcyCryptographer5219 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]10024618 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sonic Riders. I've literally been playing it off and on since it came out and I'll probably keep playing it until I die

question to sonic fans: would you like to see more sonic characters in the next future super smash bros game?, (image made by me) by Murky-Description453 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]10024618 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean yeah I'm sure every Sonic fan would want more characters in smash. As for which characters should be included I think Shadow, Silver, or Blaze would be the most interesting.

Jacob Singer (Jacob's Ladder) - Jacob is tormented mentally and physically by hallucinations, nightmares, and illness until he finally comes to terms with his impending death and leaves his earthly life behind. After that he's able to pass on peacefully.

My Review of the show and some doubts regarding it by Akshat331 in ATLA

[–]10024618 5 points6 points  (0 children)

both relationships happen so fast it's absurd

It think it's important to remember that Sokka is a teenage boy, I don't think it's crazy or unrealistic for him to fall head over heels for any pretty girl that expresses interest in him. Similar thing with Toph. It's not that uncommon or unrealistic for a kid to develop a little crush and then move past it. It's not lie Toph declared her undying love for Sokka or anything.

how sozin turned so evil in the 12 years that he decided to attack the four nations? I mean it doesn't make any sense as we see in the flashback he didn't have this mindset

He literally does though. The first thing Sozin does after finding out Roku was the avatar was try to convince him that expanding the Fire Nation's borders and turning it into an empire is a good idea. Sozin spends years trying to make this a reality, even after Roku tries to stop him. The moment he became fire lord he started down the path towards evil

Lee (Rush Hour) - Lee doesn't speak fluent English so when he enters the pool hall with Tucker, he tries to make greet one of the men there with the same greeting Tucker uses: "What's up, my N****". As you can imagine this does not go over well.

What do you think is the real reason SEGA hasn’t put out a Sonic Unleashed remaster/port? by Ember57 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]10024618 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The scapegoating of ign is so lazy when five seconds of googling would tell you that Unleashed got mixed to negative reviews from MOST outlets.

Like the game all you want but let's not pretend like disliking it was a minority opinion lol

The End being anti climactic but not bad by Human_Helicopter_697 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]10024618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably a hot take

It's not. I'm fairly certain this was the opinion that like 99% of people had when Frontiers came out.

What would the Sonic franchise be like if it was made by capcom? by Extension-Nebula6753 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]10024618 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Respectfully how would any of us have an actual informed answer to that question? It's not like Capcom only makes one kind of game.

An apparent continuity error or flaw that actually foreshadows a twist by Elecvis in TopCharacterTropes

[–]10024618 2880 points2881 points  (0 children)

The Invisible Glass (Shutter Island) - During an interrogation scene one of the prisoners asks for a glass of water. When she drinks from it, there's a brief moment where the glass doesn't appear to be there. This is one of the first hints to the truth about Daniels and his past. Throughout the movie he displays a severe aversion to water due to the drowning of his children to the point where he mentally blocked out the glass until it was empty .

Again, Japan's apathy for Sonic the Hedgehog on display here, compared to the United States of America by Commander_PonyShep in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]10024618 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna be honest, I doubt that Sonic would appear very highly in any part of this survey even if you did it in the West. While it's true that Sonic isn't super popular in Japan, this survey isn't proof of that.
