>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.
Asher Watson
They're ironic memeing in the games themselves now, not just on twitter.
Anthony Morales
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?
Nicholas Howard
>New game looks bad >"All the previous games were shit too" How much autism does the human brain need to think like this?
William Adams
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
Cameron Brown
It is BLATANTLY tongue and cheek if the in-game OC maker didn't already tip you off on that.
Blake Ortiz
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
Bentley Adams
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?
Caleb Robinson
Well I guess I'm a classic fag.
Cameron Rivera
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
Joshua Ramirez
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.
Michael Perez
>LE GASP
Henry Harris
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.
Leo Turner
This is absolutely amazing. It's like its 2005 again and I have shadow the hedgehog on my Christmas list.
Elijah Edwards
>Infinite was so edgy it killed Chester It truly will be the worst sonic game.
Charles Jenkins
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!
Colton White
I actually chuckled
Landon Sanders
Chester Bennington died, and his edge was channeled into Infinite, so that he may live on in the world of gaming.
Charles Harris
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.
Nicholas Morales
>Infinite
Welcome back, Goku Black. I missed you.
Nicholas Parker
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.
Gavin Sullivan
Nice!
Daniel Stewart
I can't believe *teleports behind u* is canon.
Asher Wood
Dude it was always canon.
Jacob Martinez
>No one calling out of "Reddit spacing" Thank god the meme is dead.
Juan Wright
Anyone think the area where he tells sonic his name looks a little like planet wisp?
Brody Price
>Inifinite took out all the life energy of the linkin park singer A Edgyhog to surpass Coldsteel youtube.com/watch?v=XKjOJuPjiu4
Grayson Clark
Shadow teleports all the time.
Wyatt Stewart
>villain is voiced by Illidan
Fuck you, I'm hype
Joshua James
Me too, his edge is so over the top I can't help but like it.
>theory that Infinite is Tails from a bad timeline
This needs to be true.
Brayden Barnes
-.-
Juan Foster
>Chester Bennington died at the same day this trailer came out What the fuck is happening?
Austin Wood
>-.- Has Sup Forums finally become a YouTube comments section?
Levi Wright
That was literally the first thing Shadow did when he met Sonic
Andrew Miller
owo
Blake Walker
>he's faster than sonic
This made me laugh more than it should have. It's obvious they're poking fun at OC's
Jason Walker
Holy fuck this is dynamite character design
Tyler Russell
>fur-fags? tumblr?
So the Sonic fanbase?
Angel Green
>Infinite It all makes sense now...
Oliver Howard
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
Luis Barnes
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.
Juan Robinson
...
Brayden Gutierrez
NOW that's what I call edgy!
Angel Evans
>Finally... >It's the day you'll take your final breath...Hedgehog.
Carter Reyes
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"
Aaron Fisher
H-He's fast!
Isaiah Jenkins
Modern Sonic is so unlikable as a franchise.
Michael Clark
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
Angel Hughes
Go back to your Mania thread, Classicuck.
Andrew Gray
>Leave Infinite to me.
Anthony Sanders
My 12 year old self is orgasming.
Asher Young
they know their market
Wyatt Bennett
Off with you classicuck. Enjoy that umpteenth rehash.
Jacob Reyes
I'm just looking forward to playing as Dongus the Hedgehog.
Jordan Richardson
holy fucking shit
Benjamin Smith
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.
Daniel Cooper
>Enjoy that umpteenth rehash. There hasn't been a game that plays like the classics in ages though.
Brayden Sanders
Run along now, classicuck.
Ian Edwards
>liam O'Brien voicing incredibly cheesy sonic villain
This is perfect tbqh
Luke Gonzalez
>Coldsteel, that is enough. Leave Infinite to me.
Xavier Johnson
>"CUBE COFFIN!"
Gabriel Flores
JET SOUNDS, A DISTANT ROAR BEHIND YOU
Jordan Lopez
>Sonic Mania looks perfect. >Sonic Forces looks like absolute garbage.
James Flores
>twocifer
Austin Watson
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
Kevin Harris
Literally my mom's Nazo
Nolan Lopez
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.
Jason Ross
I know it totally sounded like him, but please, I need confirmation that it's actually him.
Aiden Green
No, it looks like PERFECT garbage. I'm buying both.
Levi Ward
Fuck. Sorry I'm tired. What I mean is that it'll be successful due to the OC maker.
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.
Lucas Gonzalez
I am willing to let this slide if the Crush 40 song delivers.
Aiden Barnes
Holy fuck that edge is sharper than a katana
Isaac Fisher
>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.
Mason Smith
Jun did the guitars for Infinite's theme so it's something.
Colton Torres
>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.
Hudson Williams
So all the people who loved Sonic when they were like 12 are now mad that the game panders to 12 year olds? Pathetic
Luis Hill
I like Infinite's Theme. Anyone else?
Josiah Williams
This is fucking amazing though, why do you hate fun bro?
Joshua Hill
I've been listening to it over and over. It's actually a pretty fun theme.
Ayden Bell
Out of all the songs shown in Forces, this one grew on me the fastest. Like, one listen fast.
Christopher Rivera
>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.
Jeremiah Wood
It's alright.
Carter Sanders
It's so ridiculously edgy it's impossible to hate it.
Ethan Allen
I HAVE THE POWER LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT
Kevin Sullivan
It's so dumb that it's actually good
Joshua Thomas
He's talking about how Under Savitar's suit was a replica of Barry
Justin Wood
Is he voiced by the guy who voiced Kariya in Fate Zero?
Levi Young
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.
Nathan Walker
Edgy as fuck.
I kinda like it. He has a good voice too
Henry Bailey
Is it just me or do Infinite and Eggman have the only good line delivery in this game
Also that theme is hot garbage
Samuel Sanchez
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.
Zachary Powell
I have a little soft spot for Park Avenue's vocal theme.
Carter White
Oh it's absolutely parody. Sega's twitter has been doing the self-aware thing for a few years now.
