Because SEGA actually has zero confidence in this game recieving good reveiws unless they have Classic Sonic in their games.

>Sega doesn't realizes what made people like Generations.
>They'll probably slap those alien things in again because clearly they're what did it.

Well, Sonic Mania looks good.

>Sonic Mania

My main concern is Classic Sonic Physics, If it's going to be half-ass like in generations or closer to Mania but in the of the day I just Modern Sonic to venture on his own.

Because they are creatively bankrupted.

>Sega finally doing something that harkens back to the old days
>People still complain
just die

>Sega finally doing something that harkens back to the old days
They've been riding that since Sonic 4 Episode 1 and haven't really gotten it right until Mania (prior to that, it was the Advance games)

Is modern Sonic just never going to be allowed to star in his own games anymore without Classic there to babysit?

They're pandering to reviewers. It was clear with Lost World, and it's clear here: SEGA has (wisely) stopped attempting to listen to fans, and is only focusing on solid Metacritic scores to keep the franchise from dying entirely. Many reviewers will not even play the game, but simply congratulate SEGA for going "back to the roots" with a poor imitation of Genesis Sonic.

that would be mania. If they want to do classic sonic right, they can keep doing 2D games, and I would be 100% happy. But it's useless to shoehorn him in the modern games. Let modern have the boost games, adding classic in shitty 2.5d with terrible physics is useless.
If SEGA wants to capitalize on a classic sonic 3D games, they should contact the Utopia team, not give an half-assed nod to classic fans, shitting in the process development time to give to modern sonic stages

>wanting Classic Sonic to be anything but mute

On Youtube the disappointment in the comments were real, Since Mania is a thing and Classic showing up in the teaser had Modern fans abit pissed off.

I agree that it felt really redundant. Mania really feels like Sonic's version of MegaMan 9, I really can't see any 2D Sonic fans asking for something like that, AND more

I can imagine how the retards at sonic team felt
>why the piggu gaijin don't like?
>we put small edgehog in
they are totally clueless on how to handle sonic. How it is so hard to understand that classic in generations was a refreshing thing but not to try again? Lange might be full of himself, but he was right about Sonic team. They are retards

as a classic fan this only pisses me off. Classic in generation was already pretty meh, since it didn't really play well most of the time, but it was a nice throwback and popularized him once again. Why re-use him when Mania is now filling the void?

If this game ends up being yet another confusing mess that doesn't know what it wants to be or who it wants to please (like Lost World) then Sonic is fucking done

He said that this game is a "Brand New Experience" that's a bit worrying.

Maybe it'll be Sonic Generations but with actual new levels and not remastered old ones

Never trust anything iizuka says

Because Chris chan achieved a wizardom, and is having trouble containing his power. They're aftaid of what he might do if they don't include him.

Wow it's almost impossible to see spoilers with this background

>the Utopia team
Good shit. This interview is worth a listen (the first half an hour at least), he talks about Sonic Team's shortcomings and all that

Has SEGA actually gotten with the times and learned to allow this stuff? I mean, I know the Sonic Twitter guy gave fan projects a thumbs up but I always assumed that might have been his own doing and without permission from the Japanese higher ups.

nah, they stopped the bullshit after the last CEO change, as far as I can remember. You can share sonic romahcks on steam if I'm not mistaken. Also while they C&D the street of rage remake, they never dared to touch the sonic fan community, except for that unity 2.5D demo that managed to catch the public attention (even if it was actually pretty bad IMHO). The autism backlash would be too big
