So with all the games out there that let you create customized human characters, Sonic Forces is one of the first major games(to my knowledge) that lets you create your own customized animal characters. Considering that (approximately) about half of all Sup Forums characters are non-human, I thought it would be fun if we compiled a list of all the Sup Forums characters that could be created in Sonic Forces.
As a reminder, the species available are: >Hedgehogs >Cats >Dogs >Rabbits >Birds >Wolves >Bears
Ideas for characters don't have to be strictly Sup Forums-related, but try to keep them Sup Forums for the most part.
Luke Turner
Admit it, we're all gonna make him.
Jace Martin
This.
Nolan Rogers
Speaking of, does anyone ahve saved images of those characters Sup Forums made, I think, during that marathon, years ago? I distinctly remember an echnida girl and a bear.
Ian Cruz
Absolutely we are, I probably should've made that the OP image instead, actually. I'm not making Sonichu, though.
Blake Gutierrez
If the character be made shorter or taller than the default, I might try seeing if I can make a good Gumball in the game. Also Nicole.
Easton Ward
>Birds BUCKET OF CHICKEN
Connor Wilson
>current year >playing anything but bird or bear master race All ring-related abilities are for scrubs who get hit.
Aaron Carter
>>Birds Fuck yeah bro.
Carter Richardson
I'd love it if they made accommodations for a Coldsteel character. I'm talking about customization options up to and including the JNCO (Jinco) jeans and torn ear.
Christian Adams
I have a stupid amount of them from years ago. Like Dreamcast era.
Joshua Anderson
Sad you can't get a bat.
Cooper Peterson
On a level of 1 to 200, how mad is he going to be when someone makes one of his characters in the game?
William Nelson
Did he even make anything BESIDES echidnas?
Nathan Carter
I am a lapsed sonic fan. I haven't drawn any of my Original the Characters in years.
You bet your ass I'm hyped for this game.
Owen King
Not of note. And he didn't make echidnas, Sega did. He just made shitty varients.
Henry Ortiz
>no Echidnas what the fuck
Hunter Harris
Knuckles is the last echidna, it would make no sense at all if more appeared. They also wanted to spite Penders.
Michael Hughes
>needing a crutch homing attack in a series that has never been about the combat
Easton Thomas
Alright, when I was reading Sonic The Comic when I was just a little jimmy... Not gonna lie, I made an OC. His name was Jack the Rabbit. He was a Dutch breed that ran fast and dug (Because he's a rabbit and that's what they do) and I am so making him in Sonic Forces
I'm not even sorry.
Christian Harris
Because people will complain that you can't make a big tittied bat girl.
That being said, this engine is so going to get commandeered by the community to make porn.
Jonathan Green
>no Hedgehegs once again, SEGA disappoints millions
Ryder Bailey
user you are cute
Nolan Turner
Did the comics ever introduce any other bat characters for comparison?
Andrew Stewart
yes but they were all pre-Pendering (so they won't ever be seen again) and pre-Rouge (so they all look pretty different)
Isaac Wilson
sometimes they looked like this
Oliver Collins
Any news of the comic?
Robert Thompson
It's dead Jim
Xavier Richardson
If Echidna are a playable species as DLC or something, how mad do you think Penders will be.
Jaxson Lopez
I remember the days when we had Arlo the Armadillo and Mighty the Armadillo at the same time. Did they ever give some retcon explanation for why they looked completely different or did they just kind of ignore it?
Thomas Anderson
coldsteel, scourge, sonichu & boom sonic are pretty much my top 4 for orginal the character
Angel Turner
Yeah, they just handwaved it by saying Arlo's a western Armadillo and Mighty's an eastern armadillo.
Bentley Wright
>Sega specifically excludes Echidnas from the species list because they don't want Ken throwing a shitfit at them because someone made a character that vaguely resembles one of the Secret Grandpas
Asher Young
As crazy as that sounds I honestly wouldn't doubt it. I also wouldn't be surprised if the whole Penders ordeal completely soured Sega on Echidnas altogether and we'll never see another one besides Knuckles.
Ethan Bennett
My main
Austin Davis
As of current Japanese Sonic game lore, Knuckles is the only echidna.
Camden Brooks
So Sega has embraced the most ridiculed aspect of its fandom. Is it desperation?
Jaxon Sullivan
I prefer Lizards and Bats
Nicholas Stewart
Maybe. But if it's fun, then it shouldn't matter
Aiden Jackson
I really liked that design, but it needs more America.
Angel Wright
>Is it desperation? Basically. It won't matter though, since the franchise's reputation is in the shitter and even if the game is good it won't shake its now decade+ stench of failure. Sonic Colors didn't shake it, Sonic Generations didn't shake it, and Sonic Forces and Sonic Mania won't shake it.
Jason Jones
Sonic Boom set them back. Even if it was for a sub-line of the franchise and was developed by an outside studio, you still put the Sonic name on it so it's still a stain on the franchise.
Jayden Hill
Colors and Generations were bringing it back kinda. Not to a casual level obviously, but they weren't being ridiculed across the industry. Lost World was a step in the wrong direction, and Boom was just a cliff dive.
Japan doesn't even really like Sonic.
Kevin Long
What sucks is that a bad game will always overshadow the good ones. Nobody talks about Colors or Generations much but people are to this day still making jokes about Sonic 06. At this point Sega doesn't need a string of good games to restore Sonic's reputation, it needs a string of amazing games.
Anthony Ward
They're better off keeping the games in the 2D realm. Sonic's had some good 3D games but even the ones that stand out tend to bring in side-scrolling segments which the franchise has always done much better. Sonic just doesn't work as well in 3D and they've been struggling to make it work for over 20 years now with varying degrees of success but they've never quite mastered it.
Andrew Johnson
Even then, it's not like Sonic Team has a clue on how to make good 2D games anymore. I think the big problem at this point is Sonic Team, desu.
Jace Bell
To be honest, I've always dreamed of playing a completed fixed Sonic 06, and with the project that's porting it to unity, it looks like it might be possible. I genuinely think it could be a great game if the issues are touched up, since it always reminded me of Sonic Adventure. The story will still be a train wreck but that's besides the point.
Kayden Davis
Good gameplay can save a game much better than a good story:
>Bayonetta Great gameplay, shite story. General verdict: Great game. >Of Orcs And Men Great story, unplayable gameplay General verdict: Shite game
Sonic has never been about the story, all of the best games, people loved for the gameplay and the music. I mean, to paraphrase John Carmack
>Story in a Sonic game is like a story in a porn movie. It's expected to be there, but it's not that important.
Landon Reed
It won't matter if the stupid town fetch quests are still there. I hate those even more than the buggy ass gameplay.
Gabriel Rivera
Ideally I'd say all but Sonicman's quests would be nixed, or at the very least made optional.
