How has one simple flying squirrel driven the entire Sonic community mad?

I personally like his design and I’m excited to find out what his gameplay will be like.

No one's mad besides fags who honestly thought Amy was the next playable character.

I'm not a sonic fan and I have absolutely no idea who this is. Looks like a not tails with a shittier design

>I don't like thing and I don't recognize character from thing!
Truely insightful commentary.

It's an old ass design people born in 1995 pretend to care about.

Because the Amyfags thought she was a shoo-in despite the fact that Stealth has overhauled Mighty in the past and Ray has always been asked about in regards to returning characters.

They still make sonic games?

>we're going to get Super Ray and Super Mighty before Super Amy

Hello classicfag.

sonic was never good. who cares?

I can't wait to see Amy in Sonic Mania 2! ______as a damsel in distress and not a playable character

I guess I shouldn't be surprised Sonicfags are autistic enough to want some shit character like Amy instead of actually good characters who have been forgotten.

W-w-why d-does he t-t-talk l-l-like t-that?

I never gave a shit about Ray. Cry me a river.

Best timeline.

it's a porn crop, isn't it?

Miles 'Ray' Prower

>we could have had super amy
now i feel kind of bad

It has been so long since his last appearence that his speech skills deteriorated. Truly a sad case.

m8 that's literally the promo art from mania plus with his eyes photoshopped a bit

Mighty and Ray are both Knuckles just split in half, So imagine a Knuckles that can't glide and a Knuckles that can't break walls and there you go.

Nervous tic. Kid's been though some shit.

Nah, just his reveal image edited to be more smug.

Seeing as there are almost 300 issues, and I couldn't be bothered reading them all, especially the old one with the ugly artstyle, what are some good archie sonic read?

Is it really a big deal for people? I'm more disappointed that we're just getting new characters instead of you know, actual content like more levels

I just feel surprised someone else remembered SegaSonic.

We're getting remixed levels, which I'm okay with. Save new levels for the sequel.

More people would probably know if the dlc was more worthwhile if they'd actually bother showing us some gameplay.

>I personally like his design
What design? They just took Sonic and Tails designs and smashed them together. Its a fucking joke.

Their gameplay hasn’t been announced yet.

Doesn't the Sonic community go mad about everything though?

Common opinion is that issue 160 and everything after (including the Sonic Universe spin-off series) is mostly pretty good. But it comes with a lot of baggage of all the stuff from pre-160 mattering. Issue 252 starts a reboot but it's a pretty short run before it gets cancelled and arguably bogged down by too much world building.

If you played something else for once in a entire gen...

Thanks

Hello gaeming Journo.

If there's any gameplay differences with them at all it means we'll get new time attack categories for every stage.

It's hard to get excited about that when we have no clue to what extent the remixed levels will change things up

it's their character description gameplay is irrelevant, they give Mighty the Sonic 3 shield and give Ray a less heavy flight mechanic and there you go there's not much else to do with them.

Sauce?

sonic is dumb. shut up

>How has one simple flying squirrel driven the entire Sonic community mad?
He did? What did I miss?

Ray gets announced alongside Mighty for dlc characters in Sonic Mania, and then it's been shitposting for nearly a week straight now.

But... why? Shouldn't fans be happy that those characters are finally returning?

You know, I'm starting to think Sup Forums's sole enjoyment is finding things to be angry at, every single thread on this hellhole of a board is bitching about something.

Because it's not Amy or Metal. Even though they could easily be saving that for a sequel.

specially who call themselves fans and didn't played anything beyond Sonic 2 or that Red Barrel in Carnival Night Zone frome Sonic 3.

Ray and Mighty are from a Nip only arcade game with a trackball. Only archiefags (aka where these characters had relevance) are excited about this

Mighty also appeared in Chaotix as a sonic re-skin

So where does the Sonic fanbase congregate online mainly these days? I feel I've fallen out of touch.
Is it /sthg/, Reddit's Sonic board, Sonic Retro, or some other place?

Nothing better and more important to review on your Gaming Blog/Site? Like Luigi's dick size?

No, that's just ray. Didn't mighty make it into other games? I could have sworn I saw him in something else

people upset character they wanted didn't get in thats all, i wanted amy im but im fine with amy not being in seeing as her playstyle wouldn't fit with the level design heres hoping shes in mainia 2, i wonder what they going to do with mighty and ray

Mighty gamewise has only ever been in SegaSonic and Chaotix. But he has been in a number of romhacks and fangames.

1993, even before Sonic 3 actually.

that's what it was. At least Mighty is more legitimate than Ray. and even then. Dillon from DRW is the cooler red armadillo.

>I personally like his design
He's literally just a yellow Sonic with no spines.

Also, Mighty was one of the many preliminar concepts for Sonic before they choose a Hedgehog. Later they thought about make Mighty part of Sonic's main gang.
Pic related was posted on twitter by Sonic's original designer, Naoto Oshima.

People were really begging for Metal & Amy (it doesn't help this file in the game's files looked like it meant Metal & Amy as opposed to Mighty & Ray with the R being shittily written), I mean I was also even but I'm super hyped to have Mighty & to a lesser extent Ray back. I'm glad they didn't go with the obvious choice now, it may lead to some interesting gameplay.

Real worst Sonic game, coming through.

Looks better than Mania at least.

kek, who the fuck is max? that looks like some bad OC

real talk when the fuck will we be able to play as the cool cock

I remember seeing someone dump a Sonic comic of Mighty fighting Sonic in Werehog form and it was actually a pretty brutal fight for a Sonic comic, So does Mighty have Knuckles level strength or something?

I saw another one where he kinda did the fist in open palm bow before fighting some goons together with Knuckles,too. Oh, and he doesn't have white gloves, instead he has some sort of fingerless gloves.

Meanwhile I don't know shit about Ray, I've never seen a comic panel of him

Max the Parrot, but it never appeared in any game... yet.
Hope someday.

That one on the right looks absolutely ridiculous. They should use it, the sonic community might have a collective brain aneurysm over it.

I don't know how the comics go but in the US manual for Knuckles' Chaotix he is described as being strong but it's not like they go into detail about that.

He's likely a redesign of one of the members of the scrapped Sonic band like Vector.

Damn, yes, i was looking for this pic for very long!

I guess he got his new Blue shoes from the comic, because in SegaSonic Arcade game had literally the same shoes as Sonic.

Yeah, that one didn't even get the luxury of being released.

Mighty is stupid strong and durable enough to get the shit beaten out of him by werehog sonic and get right back up

SNOIC

Oh, man, I'm a sucker for scarves why didn't they keep that?

You know, this would be a good time to reuse old characters in their comic personalities, Team Hooligan seems pretty popular even among non comic readers as did Honey, they could bring them back into the fold with this new racing game, Ray, I have no idea what he can be that Tails isn't.

They already said they'd have their own abilities in the European fact sheet.

Just how brutal was the fight? Apparently Were Sonic lost control of himself in the comic where as in the games Sonic kept his will the entire time

great art

In that one, Max is the monkey

thanks sherlock

Why do people assume Ray with be a straight Knuckles clone just because of the flying squirrel thing? Did anyone think Tails would be able to fly despite being a fox?

Wasn't knuckles a flying squirrel?

Aha! But I was wrong, so you are too. ;P

He's a gliding Echidna.

>Metal
Yeah that's sensible. Make one of the bosses playable.

That's something I always questioned myself if it did hypothetically mean Metal, but they could have simply changed it to something else completely like how Knuckles has his own Mirage Saloon act.

I still think not having Metal Knuckles when you play as Knuckles was a missed oppertunity.
