It's sad that we probably won't get a Sonic Mania sequel but we'll get another garbo Sonic Team game like Forces.

Does it need a sequel?

The team proved that they can make amazing Sonic games. You want them to stop doing that?

No I want them to make something different.

Not the same thing over and over

You do realize these are Sonic fans right? They've been making Sonic fan games for years. They finally got to make a single official game. I think it would be great if they did more because they're certainly more capable of doing it better than Sonic Team. Their part in the franchise hasn't become played out yet.

It's honestly the best Sonic game in the series. I hope they come out with another game with all original levels. I think I preferred them to the originals tbh

2D Sonic is nowhere close to 3D Zeldas.

It's a fun game but it's a throwback nostalgia game that did all it could do.

A sequel would just be more of the same at best.

I'd rather people didn't dwell and they made a new project instead. Sonic would never exist in the first place if people who made it instead made more and more sequels to other games

Sonic CD's level design is like someone did the Debug Mode cheat in Sonic 1, randomly pressed buttons and made a whole game.

so true XD

I think they've earned the opportunity to try and make a 2D Sonic with completely original content.

I don't think they'll get the opportunity to really do anything else for Sega though. Sega has been really weird about the Sonic Mania reaction.

Mania being a success means bank for them

I wonder if the same people who complain about classic Sonic 'cant see ahead/ obstacles slow you down' happen to like the 3d Boost games

It's pretty much the same thing. Whether you spindash in the classics or boost in the moderns, going 0 to 300 mph without understanding the level is gonna end badly.

Understanding (good) Sonic games is like understanding how to climb the stairs at the end of a 2D Mario game. You already know how unsatisfying it is to have to jump up a flight of stairs slowly vs well timed jumps and use of momentum.

Hell, Mania has just that in Lava Reef zone

People complain because they lose their skill after years of not playing. They return to it and suck. Everything is getting in their way and their timing is off.

Hauling ass in a Sonic game is for AFTER you have the layout of the level down and know what's coming and when. You gotta memorize everything as if you were playing a SHMUP.

I still maintain that you can go fast in a sonic game without memorizing the layout.

Sonic can see ahead now. The mobile ports and Mania fixed the problem
