Reminder that Mania PC sales would have been much higher if they didn't do the whole delay/Denuvo fiasco.

>mfw imagining a single bullet going through every Sonic Team member's head like in The Porkening

Nothing. Nothing is going through their head. Nothing ever *did* go through their head. Every success Sega has ever had was not the result of careful thought--it was lightning in a bottle dumb ass luck. Every now and then they accidentally spun gold but never had the ability to identify what made those things good. All they ever saw was "Sonic guud!" "Genesis guud!" and promptly did the exact *wrong* things. They can't reproduce quality if they don't know how to recognize it.

VC 4 proves you wrong

You mean a game that's not out yet and took a bunch of garbage PSP entries and sequels happening in between? Yeah, real geniuses they got over there.

Probably the next shitty gimmick to put in the next Sonic game.

This "Well, time to fire Christian Whitehead."

Yep. and you have sega to blame for that. The Mania team didn't even know that was going to happen.

Sonic Adventure 3

>Sonic Mania 2 developed by Sonic Team

oh no

Never forget:

>delayed the PC version at the last minute by two fucking weeks
>claim it's to fix performance issues (pushing the devs under the bus)
>give the original ROM of Sonic 1, not even the definitive Taxman and Stealth remake as an "apology" for those who preordered
>game comes out but something doesn't seem right
>a few hours later people discover that Sega of Europe forced in Denuvo (the most cancerous, anti-consumer DRM malware) and not even disclosed it on the store page
>on top of that the game was online only for a day
>Sega of Europe tried to damage control and pushed the blame on the innocent devs again for that too
>on top of that the "apology" gift made it impossible to refund the game
Gee, I fucking wonder why it sold and reviewed like shit on PC. Could it be that Sega went full retard and sabotaged their own product for literally no reason? Nah, can't be. Not like all you need to do to sell your game well is to make it good and price it fairly, which describes Mania to a T. It's not like FUCKING CUPHEAD MANAGED TO SELL OVER A MILLION COPIES IN TWO WEEKS, LIKE 700K OF WHICH WERE ON PC, AND WITHOUT HAVING ANY FUCKING DRM AND EVEN BEING RELEASED ON GOOD OLD GAMES SINCE DAY ONE, GOLLY FUCKING GEE WHO COULD'VE SEEN THAT COMING. GOD FUCKING DAMN is Sega of Europe fucking retarded.

"Why didn't we just replace Sonic with the best cat?"

This shit made me pirate the game when I was going to buy it before.

>bought Mania on Switch
>waiting for Forces Denuvo bypass
>Forces bugs & glitches videos are so awkward that I'm lazy to play it now

Alternate timeline where Blaze the Cat started the series and Sonic was only a side character introduced in Rush

Seppuku I hope

WATCH IT TAXMAN

>bare with us
