ZombiePelican 12/14/17 9:36:18 PM #1:	80/80 Sonic and his pals are colorful anthropomorphic animals, why does the story always need to be so fucking dark and edgy? I know I shit on Nintendo alot but they can at least keep the tone right for their mascot characters. It doesn't make sense for Mario to have a long convoluted story about how he's fighting some ancient evil who wants to destroy the world etc... so Nintendo what story they have for Mario is kept lighthearted and simple because that's what fits. A dark and edgy story just does not fit Sonic, so why does Sega and Sonic Team insist on taking the story of Sonic games in that direction? --- https://i.imgur.com/SiKIsHD.jpg https://i.imgur.com/V62ygzP.jpg https://i.imgur.com/M0MRS6S.gifv https://i.imgur.com/Lc56ify.jpg <cite>ZombiePelican posted [p:892238080] in Why does S...

TheVipaGTS 12/14/17 9:43:10 PM #6:	Sega just released their Financial report...Mania was their most successful new Sonic game in the last 15 years. They said they were going to use this year to gauge which direction Sonic will be taken in the future using Mania and Forces....its clear Mania won. Hopefully they meant it and stop with the Edgy Sonic shit. --- Dallas Cowboys: 1 - 1 <cite>TheVipaGTS posted [p:892238481] in Why does S...

pikachupwnage 12/14/17 9:44:07 PM #7:	Honestly this is likely a big part of why Sonic has never done as well as his first few games. That and that half the Sonic games since have been mediocre or outright shit. --- I'm Mary Poppins y'all. http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/665/328/d75.gif <cite>pikachupwnage posted [p:892238535] in Why does S...

Terra-enforcer 12/14/17 9:55:31 PM #9:	By recent games do you mean just Forces? Mania wasn't edgy. Before that, neither Boom games were edgy. Before that, Lost World wasn't edgy. And before that Generations wasn't edgy. So I don't see what trend you're following at all. --- Nintendo Switch Friend Code: SW-3032-7898-9500 http://psnprofiles.com/Terraforce777 http://miiverse.nintendo.net/users/Rayquaza487 <cite>Terra-enforcer posted [p:892239114] in Why does S...
