Sonic Forces - WHY???

m.youtube.com/watch?v=Mn6uqp_mr98

What were they thinking? Who is this appealed to?


fur-fags? tumblr?
This is the end result when you mix a bunch of shitty sonic oc's in a blender. Are they purposefully trying to ruin this game?


I guess the "sonic was never good" meme was true.


IGN was right...
Are the end times coming Sup Forums?


Should I be scared?

>What were they thinking? Who is this appealed to?

Kids between 10-14. Their target audience, not you fucking furry fags who talk about Sonic once in a while as an excuse to jerk to Rouge and Amy.

They're ironic memeing in the games themselves now, not just on twitter.

I don't even know what to believe anymore.


>Fans make an honest criticique about the sonic the hedgehog franchise
>Sega admits sonic hasn't been his best over the years and they're working to make the IP better
>Does the exact opposite
>Everyone unironically thinks this is great?


What time timeline is this?

>New game looks bad
>"All the previous games were shit too"
How much autism does the human brain need to think like this?

edge and cheesy buttrock has always been a core part of the 3D sonic games
fans weren't mad about that, they were mad about the shitty gameplay in sonic '06 (and depending on who you ask, other games like shadow and heroes)
if you think this trailer sucks and "isn't sonic" then you were never a fan of 3D sonic games to begin with

It is BLATANTLY tongue and cheek if the in-game OC maker didn't already tip you off on that.

It's really funny to me that the shit young adults joked about as teens is absolutely in with kids and teens right now

Then again, I think the same applies to stuff like Image comics

They've been making their cutscenes the exact same way for about a decade, and they all look less fluid than they did back in 2001. It's boggling. Like shit, can they really not do anything but tiny square rooms with the level's textures slapped on?

Well I guess I'm a classic fag.

I fucking love it, this trailer brings out all the underage newfags who don't fucking get it

It's a parody you dipshit, though to be fair you kinda had to live that life to really get the joke

It's actually really targeted towards actual sonicfags, who aren't just in it for the porn or 14 year olds. People who read the comic and watch the shows and know the lore and haven't been inundated with shit memes from 2006 for the past 11 years.

>LE GASP

This is way too perfect to NOT be intentional and them not taking the piss out of the OC idea. IT seems way too perfectly elaborate as the video itself even starts in a dumb black and white effect like straight out of a 2003 AMV.

This is absolutely amazing. It's like its 2005 again and I have shadow the hedgehog on my Christmas list.

>Infinite was so edgy it killed Chester
It truly will be the worst sonic game.

Ah, you think edginess is a joke? You merely adopted the edge. I was born in it. Molded by it. I didn't see a good Sonic parody until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but shitposting!

I actually chuckled

Chester Bennington died, and his edge was channeled into Infinite, so that he may live on in the world of gaming.

If you think this is anything other than fucking amazing then you probably have autism and a nonexistent sense of irony.

This *touches scar and tips fedora* donut steel is the best thing I've seen all day. It's a masterpiece and completely hilarious.

>Infinite

Welcome back, Goku Black. I missed you.

I can't even be mad at this edginess I was laughing my ass off as soon as saw the trailer. You guys are taking this way too seriously, just have fun with it. Also I really like the beginning of his theme.

Nice!

I can't believe *teleports behind u* is canon.

Dude it was always canon.

>No one calling out of "Reddit spacing"
Thank god the meme is dead.

Anyone think the area where he tells sonic his name looks a little like planet wisp?

>Inifinite took out all the life energy of the linkin park singer
A Edgyhog to surpass Coldsteel

Shadow teleports all the time.

>villain is voiced by Illidan

Fuck you, I'm hype

Me too, his edge is so over the top I can't help but like it.

youtube.com/watch?v=XKjOJuPjiu4

Also his theme song is pretty much a Linkin Park song.
Is it just a coincidence this came out the day Chester Bennington died?

F

>theory that Infinite is Tails from a bad timeline

This needs to be true.

-.-

>Chester Bennington died at the same day this trailer came out
What the fuck is happening?

>-.-
Has Sup Forums finally become a YouTube comments section?

That was literally the first thing Shadow did when he met Sonic

owo

>he's faster than sonic

This made me laugh more than it should have. It's obvious they're poking fun at OC's

Holy fuck this is dynamite character design

>fur-fags? tumblr?

So the Sonic fanbase?

>Infinite
It all makes sense now...

This is legitimately the best piece of Sonic media ever released

>Let's just put an even edgier Guts in the Berserk armor into Sonic and see what happens

This is either a completely self-aware parody of OCs and fanfiction or Sega took a look around DeviantArt and came to the conclusion that the kids really do want weird melodramatic nonsense.

...

NOW that's what I call edgy!

>Finally...
>It's the day you'll take your final breath...Hedgehog.

Having lived through the Adventure-era OC storm, I can't help but absolutely love this. Also ten bucks on "Infinite is your OC but FROM ANOTHER UNIVERSE"

H-He's fast!

Modern Sonic is so unlikable as a franchise.

Infinite is your OC from the future who got mindbroken by some phoenix force wannabe or maybe mephiles (isn't that cool, you're the bad guy!) and your OC will make a noble sacrifice to wipe them both from the timeline, making you the unsung hero of the world

Go back to your Mania thread, Classicuck.

>Leave Infinite to me.

My 12 year old self is orgasming.

they know their market

Off with you classicuck. Enjoy that umpteenth rehash.

I'm just looking forward to playing as Dongus the Hedgehog.

holy fucking shit

Makes sense to me. Mania for the Sonic fans, Forces for the Sonic autists. Don't be afraid to give the autists everything they dream about because the people who'd be alienated by it will flock straight to Mania anyway.

>Enjoy that umpteenth rehash.
There hasn't been a game that plays like the classics in ages though.

Run along now, classicuck.

>liam O'Brien voicing incredibly cheesy sonic villain

This is perfect tbqh

>Coldsteel, that is enough. Leave Infinite to me.

>"CUBE COFFIN!"

JET SOUNDS, A DISTANT ROAR BEHIND YOU

>Sonic Mania looks perfect.
>Sonic Forces looks like absolute garbage.

>twocifer

If it's actually possible to create cold steel in this game then it'll be an instant GOTY and no one can say otherwise

Literally my mom's Nazo

Weird and a bit be more successful in terms of sells rather than ratings. IMO it looks okay. It's no 06. Just another Generations.

I know it totally sounded like him, but please, I need confirmation that it's actually him.

No, it looks like PERFECT garbage. I'm buying both.

Fuck. Sorry I'm tired. What I mean is that it'll be successful due to the OC maker.

Everybody spam this at Shun Nakamura in twitter

Jesus fuck it sounds horrible. It makes Shadow's theme sound like a masterpiece.
youtube.com/watch?v=huxZ8EZPyAc

Why the fuck aren't they getting Crush 40 to do the songs? They're pretty good, better than the fucking shit we've heard so far for Forces.

I am willing to let this slide if the Crush 40 song delivers.

Holy fuck that edge is sharper than a katana

>Is it just a coincidence this came out the day Chester Bennington died?

No he realized Sonic Team thought his music was good, the game was up. There's no coming back from that.

Jun did the guitars for Infinite's theme so it's something.

>A edgeheg in a suit
>Faster than Sonic
>From the future

I saw season 3 of The Flash and I already know where this is going.

So all the people who loved Sonic when they were like 12 are now mad that the game panders to 12 year olds? Pathetic

I like Infinite's Theme. Anyone else?

This is fucking amazing though, why do you hate fun bro?

I've been listening to it over and over. It's actually a pretty fun theme.

Out of all the songs shown in Forces, this one grew on me the fastest. Like, one listen fast.

>I saw season 3 of The Flash
So you didn't know Zoom or his mantra until you watched a shitty budget TV show based on the Flash property, cool.

It's alright.

It's so ridiculously edgy it's impossible to hate it.

I HAVE THE POWER LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT

It's so dumb that it's actually good

He's talking about how Under Savitar's suit was a replica of Barry

Is he voiced by the guy who voiced Kariya in Fate Zero?

It pretend to be a shitty song then when the beat drops and you can feel the dubstep wubs coming they take a left turn and hit you with the greatest instrument ever to exist, the electric guitar. I got juked. They shattered my ankles. I love it.

Edgy as fuck.

I kinda like it. He has a good voice too

Is it just me or do Infinite and Eggman have the only good line delivery in this game

Also that theme is hot garbage

I like it, but I don't know how much of it is genuine and how much is me looking back at my early teen Linkin Park phase.

Either way, it's the best Forces song so far. The only other song on the OST I like is Modern Sonic's City Heights theme.

I have a little soft spot for Park Avenue's vocal theme.

Oh it's absolutely parody. Sega's twitter has been doing the self-aware thing for a few years now.
