Finally a good sonic reboot
sonic goes to the real world dude
>sonic team has gone down to the point of copying Sonic X
So who's gonna be the Chris Thorndyke of Frontiers?
I would never hit OP, b-but I'd lay into you!
What?
I-I-I said I would never hit OP, but I'd lay into you!
It's so fricking weird watching streamers or youtubers that were only popular in their own very isolated spheres suddenly become mainstream. I'm now seeing Jerma psycho memes and Oneyplays references all over the place and even irl.
Smiling Friends must have been the best thing to happen to a lot of YouTubers.
That's what happens when TV dies and streaming services can't deliver a single fricking watchable thing
>Sonic discovers that he has been living in the Matrix the whole time
Could be interesting but this is Sonic Team we're talking about so it will be shit
This. I could see this story being good, and it certainly sounds better than the story of most Sonic games.
But with this team, I don't see them landing the execution.
>interesting
>recton of fricking everything that came before
no
>Could be interesting
>Sonic's unique world and aesthetic being retconned to never have actually existed and rebooted into some generic BotW/Final Fantasy shit is "intresting"
I was going to call you a massive homosexual but I realized it's not your fault. Sonic Team's bullshit have filled people with so much rot that Sonicgays have to dig a hole through the barrel and start digging into the dirt to find any sort of posotive into this franchise.
>Sonic's unique world and aesthetic being retconned to never have actually existed
Anon that happened. It only sort of came back for generations and forces
False.
Sonic's old home on South island canonically existed in all the adventure era games, and debatably still exists even in fricking unleashed.
Of course it existed in Adventure. The retcon of the canon that existed from 1 through the trilogy, the adventure games, heroes, shadow, battle and the advance series happened in 06. After which no game has had plot elements that dealt with elements introduced in previous games.
Actually '06 only canonically retconned itself, and the events of Soleanna and forfeited canon status to Rush/Rivals
The thing is, other games have actually made reference to 06 since then, implying Sonic still has memories of it happening.
Yes, he can remember it happening, because he was present for it.
That doesn't mean in a chronological sense that it DID happen.
Do you just say words without understanding them or are you actually serious?
Which games?
Aside from Generations, Sonic never mentioned or returned to Soleanna.
Silver and Blaze are soft resetted as well after '06.
It baffles me that 06's story continues to filter brainlets. People unironically still think 06 isn't canon because they undid the majority of events by the end.
Just '06 the ending. Defeat the final boss, use the MacGuffin and now Frontiers is none canon. Problem solved.
>sonic team constantly wants to reboot the series
>each time they pussyfoot it and only half-do it
>pretend it never happened in the next game
This. It'll be retconned and forgotten about when the next game rolls around. There is no cohesive canon in this shit series.
Sonic was basically already in the real world in Adventure 1+2, '06, Sonic X, the new movies
either that or it has all been a fever dream
now they reboot it and don't even have frickable Moebius characters. Its like they successfully destroy the last thing that keeps people interested. Artists tried to make due with that alien robot.
Yep. Every time you get excited for something Sonic related or think "Hey, this has potential!" Remind yourself, it's "Sonic Team."
Why do I even listen for news about this series?
>Sonic relizes everything is fake
>Mild sadness at best
>Quip/speech about how even if isn't real it's real to him
>Either the worlds merge or some gay shit happens that makes the plot point irrelevant
Exactly. Status quo by next game guaranteed. Sonic is allergic to canon.
>tfw cris chan predicted the future
You didn't listen. You laughed. You don't deserve the truth anymore.
This is a dumb premise for the series.
This is also a factor
>This. It'll be retconned and forgotten about when the next game rolls around
Yeah everyone already forgot iizuka's stupid "classic sonic is from another universe" bullshit
I don't see them touching Adventure games again. They are too fricking moronic to handle them and should now that if they frick up SA3 they won't have anything else to ever create hype for people again
Stupidest shit I've read in a week. I'll 100% choose to pretend it isn't real regardless of how it's executed.
>I don't see them touching Adventure games again
Iizuka has expressed interest in returning to Adventure in interviews. His directorial freedom probably depends on the success of Frontiers
>I don't see them touching Adventure games again.
I have a little hope
>I have a little cope
ftfy
It could be interesting if handled as a meta story element, discussing how incredibly formulaic and unambiguous Sonic games have been for the last decade, but we both know that's not where this is going.
They'll just give it Sonic 06's ending to cover their asses.
>Any game with Green Hill Zone or that mentions it took place in some kind of simulation
What? How does that work? Wouldn't that erase pretty much everything? And all the works that don't mention it (Don't even know which ones) would at least tell he knew Eggman from a long time, and the cast of characters are real anyway so he had to know about them at some point, how did they meet?
Shad05 and Sonic 06 are the only canon games now.
Kingdom hearts
sonic goes to the real world dude
This is so beyond moronic that I fully believe that Sonic Team will do this.
At this point I'm siding with the "Sonic is better off with Nintendo" gays that post all the time because utter destruction of the fanbase and franchise is at this point preferable over Sonic Team's incapabuility of doing anything right.
Sonic leaves the matrix and discover whats truly important
Floating ghost dicky
why ghost dicky?
It's illegal to have sex with children under the age of 18 but the law says nothing about ghost e-girl's who are technically over a hundred years old.
>sonic in the real world
wasn't that sonic adventures?
Sonic Adventure took place on the same world as the classic games. The humans comment on Sonic's past adventures.
I know Sonic X is non-canon, but I always liked how they handled it the most. Sonic and friends come to Earth from another world, then during the story they summon in parts of Sonic's world so the Adventure series can happen.
no according to Izuka that has been retconned. SA1/2, 06, Unleahed ect. take place on the "Human world", the previous games were on the "Animal World".
>he doesn't know
Not to mention that doesn't make sense anyway, Angel Island is in SA1 for frick's sake.
Didn't Tails clarify that the mainland is primarily inhabited by humans and it's the islands where Mobians live?
Pretty sure he did.
yeah i always assumed SA1 was robotniks first attack on human civilization
o my bad, that is good to know tbh. it was incredibly moronic anyways
>Angel Island is in SA1 for frick's sake.
Yeah, because the ME allows people to travel dimensions like in X.
I can't believe Sega actually “hired that man”
Actually it's all a dream Sonic is having, and he's just a human kid.
You joke, but this is Sonic Team.
It's a dream inside a simulation inside a dream inside a simulation inside a dream inside, and all of that is in a snow globe being held by a little autistic boy.
And the boy's name is Christian.
He just won in the end
whats the giant hammer for
Giant tails
squashing turts
Everyone had a giant inflatable hammer in the 90s UK... I'm not even joking.
Yeah I remember seeing these pop up all the time back then. What was the origin of them? I never thought about it until now.
Was gonna call you out but then I remembered my giant inflatable hammer...
>Everyone had a giant inflatable hammer in the 90s UK
frick me, now that I think about it
not true. I had a giant baseball bat
Can confirm. It was to be found at every seaside town and holiday park. Some had a squeaky head.
Seriously thanks for the flashback, but I do now feel old as frick.
CBT
The hat of Discipline. DO YOU LIVE IN A CAVE?
Man of culture spotted.
They really are trying to make a game so bad that it kills SEGA and Sonic for good
ian what the frick
Indigo Prophecy
Archieshit writer everyone
Ugh. That's so fricking awful.
Other than "digital world" isn't this the plot of most fricking sonic stories? Like how did we go from Green Hill where the only life is animals, sonic, and dr eggman, to fricking Sonic Adventure where there are humans and G.U.N and shit?
Also
>sonic x, he gets transported to earth
>sonic movies, he gets transported to earth
I don't like the "digital world" thing, but at the same time it's basically just a different take on multiple worlds which they have done time and time again.
>Since Sonic Unleashed we've been in "Cyberspace"
>[spoiler]Outside of cyberspace is the real world
>Next game is Sonic Adventure Remake, retconning the adventure series to take place after the cartoony human games and in the real world established by Frontiers.[/spoiler]
>that's why iizuka mentioned adventure in the interviews
this would actually be kinda cool
holy shit
I'm John Wilson; thanks for watching.
>Like how did we go from Green Hill where the only life is animals, sonic, and dr eggman, to fricking Sonic Adventure where there are humans and G.U.N and shit?
I think the idea was that Sonic 1, 2, CD, Choatix, and 3&K were set in some random Pacific island and Sonic Adventure 1 takes place like in some Mexican tourist town like Monterey (maybe) and Sonic Adventure 2 takes place in LA (before traveling around the world)
With heroes, who the frick knows. Maybe it's back on the original Genesis islands.
And Shadow the Hedgehog goes back to the USA.
Then 06 reboots the story and Sonic has ceased to have a real continuity ever since. Oh well.
>Has a video game's plot ever been so batshit as to make you just, stop for a moment and wonder what the hell is going on?
this part in MGS2.
and it turns out even the game didn't know what was going on to the point that MGS4 had to explain
Yes, I will believe some random, bazilian literally-who on the plot of a Sonic game
>they actually made a story that can re-weave some continuity between the soft-reboot settings of every game in the past 16 years
Now to wait and see if they actually deliver on that going forward (I don't really expect them to)
this sounds kino and would give them a good reason to ditch classic for good afterwards if he blows up cyberspace
So Sonic is Neo?
sonic if he real
NOT CANON
it would really be a bizarre story choice with "origins" coming out the same year
like this is "mega man coming out of the game console into a little boy's room in the real world" tier
which did happen but only in an OVA everyone forgot about
People are controlled by bread and circuses. Politics is just another kind of circus for those not into sports.
That's why I'm not into it.
you don't need to defend your lazy world view anon, it's just a picture.
go back to voting or whatever cucks like you do
Uncalled for levels of based for a sonic thread, anon.
People are not ready for the anti-voting redpill
>Retcon fricking everything to be fake and gay
>Fresh off the heels of a well received Sonic Origins and a movie that takes most it's plot from Sonic 3&K
Holy shit these people are fricking morons
>well received Sonic Origins
>Eggman: Sonic, it's about time you discovered new Frontiers
>*turns off cyberspace*
>cut to the real world with Eggman holding a realistic hedgehog in his lap and then letting it walk out into the grass
Would be a amazing gag ending
both of these would be great
top kek. I hope they do something moronic like this. would be funny as frick
> tiny FMV sonic the hedgehog visual novel game of an old man and his hedgehog about 2 minutes long after the credits
> walk into the sunset ending
>"Come now sonic, if we're to get the last of the sunshine we gotta go fast."
> THE END
Literally retcon the entire series to be the dreams of an autistic hedgehog. whenever someone calls them out on some stupid shit or some plot inconsistency they can just go "sonic drempt it that way".
Also eggman is wearing a sweater with a hedgehog stitch pattern on it at one point.
>drempt
of everything in that post that's what you had issue with???
yeah
Morbidly curious to see it play out
Final Fantasy games never make any sense.
Um.. bros?!??!
AHAHAHHAAHA WHAT THE FRICK NO WAY
>Classic Sonic is fricking dead
>Modern Sonic is living a dream since Adventure
>Shadow is a rogue ai, probably wants a real body
Is this Ganker or /x/ ?
Man, I get that Ian is writing some of the story, but this is incredibly fricking edgy. Probably fake
Absolutely awful, I can believe it. How fricking stupid.
>Total Recall: Sonic edition
new idea
Sonic the Impostor
I kind of like the idea but it wont be done well and will be cringe
>Sonic Team actually managed to make a worse story than 06'
Why do we keep letting them do this?
Eventually they'll reach the point where it's dumb enough it'll wrap back around into brilliance.
I would without a shred of irony enjoy this as the overall plot, as long as the moment to moment scenes were well written, and it wasn't trying to be ironic about itself and full of "funny genre-savvy quips" either.
You think with how mandate heavy Sega are they'd let this happen? Come on
Sega mandate only extends to Comics and licensed media of Sonic.
Sonic team themselves can basically do whatever
that's too autistic even for them
>DUDE WHAT IF......SONIC WAS ACTUALLY IN A DIGITAL WORLD ALL THIS TIME AGAINST AND HE'S ACTUALLY A FRICKING MURDERER BUT DECIDES TO CHANGE HIS WAY FOR THE BETTER GOOD
Wow it's just Danganronpa 2 all over again
>Retconning all previous games as simulated fiction
It's Danganronpa V3 all over again and you know it.
nice reading comprehension moron, did you really take everything Tsumugi said at face-value?
>main character is a faker who killed the original person and eventually developed a consciousness of their own while taking over someone else's identity
>has to get their memories tampered with by their master so they dont go rebellious
>all the other characters we met thus far were agents put in there to keep the protagonist oblivious to their own status as a fake
b-bros...
so are you telling me that sonic arms were #0000FF all along?
That sounds fricking awful. Retconning 20 years of Sonic lore by saying that it's all le simulation would be fricking cringe
This sounds like an autistic fanfic, so hopefully, it is.
ALL THEY HAD TO DO WAS SAY THAT SONIC GENERATIONS MADE A NEW TIMELINE THAT LEAD TO SONIC MANIA
IT WASNT THAT HARD TO FIX OH MH GOD
Honestly, I really like the idea of Eggman pulling some huge elaborate scheme like this, but the idea that the original characters we came to love are literally fricking DEAD. It'd be much better if the real Sonic was put in stasis after SA2 and that way a clear divide is made between classic Sonic (Sonic 1 - Adventure 2) and Modern Sonic (Sonic Advance/Heroes and on).
If they just killed off Modern Sonic at the ending (noble sacrifice), they could honestly put the multitude of shit games behind them and start anew, but this is a pipe dream of course and I'm sure Sonic Team will do everything in their power to make this whole shitshow as shitty as possible.
>Honestly, I really like the idea of Eggman pulling some huge elaborate scheme like this, but the idea that the original characters we came to love are literally fricking DEAD
I'm aligned with this. But I just don't see the need to split the designs.
>classic cast is when they were younger and is usually used for 2d games
>modern is when they are older and is usually used for 3d game
I hate when authors start making design wars. Like they're insulting the original story that made the series popular to begin with
cast is when they were younger and is usually used for 2d games
Classic Sonic and Charmy are older.
I fricking wish they would be this edgy but I highly doubt it.
>
BROS?!
He was trying to warn us but we didnt listen!
>Do you love me? Breath if yes, recite the bible in japanese if no
I must avenge Mario
>get someone from the comics
>he somehow creates the worst sonic plot in the entire series
I really hope this is real so people stop saying Ian is a good writer
>>get someone from the comics
>>he somehow creates the worst sonic plot in the entire series
>somehow
>Worst
This feels more "so absolutely bonkers its fun" ala Kingdom Hearts. Better than being bland
Okay, zipperhead.
Man that'd be some comic tier Eggman shenanigans that I kind of want to see it
Though then how would Metal Sonic play into it
To be 100% fair if this was played completely straight and used the setting to it's full potential from a gameplay perspective, adding cool mechanics and interesting worlds to travel, it could be a great game.
Sadly, I do not think this is possible in our world.
this absolutely ruins sonic adventure and adventure 2
what the frick
what the frick
no
this can't be real
please no
this is awful
i'm going to have an aneurysm
Adventure 2 was already ruined with Shadow The Hedgehog.
The original writer wanted Shadow to be sealed until the far future, kinda like Megaman Zero.
Nothing on him being alien cells either.
PLEASE be real
Imagine the shitpost storm this would cause
Some podcast guy was talking to Ian Flynn about the edgiest Sonic game in a podcast like 2 weeks back, and Ian told him to play Frontiers and then come talk to him about edge
Anybody have that? Would kinda fit with this story leak ngl
does anyone know if this is true?
It is. I remember the video. Cant remember who's podcast it was
Found it
?t=402
Tldr:
gay: Do you think Sega would be more lenient on exploring tragic/dark/edgy themes in Sonic games?
Iann: Play Frontiers and then come back to me on that one
Frick it I hope its legit. Might as well go max crazy
...Ya couldnt just like...use them being older as the reason?
Please, vidya jesus. This needs to be real. Loyalist sonichomosexuals deserve to have absolute shit rubbed in their faces for ever having hope and handwaving all criticisms/concerns.
Unironically, what's your problem with Sonic? The fact tha it had the sense o not just be Sonic 1 over and over again forever and be another Mario? Or the fact that it exists?
I don't have a problem with Sonic. I have a problem with fanboy homosexuals who band together to shield their favorite company from critique and demand everyone to share their blind faith in an IP/developer that has not remotely earned benefit of the doubt. I also hate Pokemongays and Switch-era fairweather Nintendo "fans" for this kind of bullshit.
>IT CAN ONLY BE SONIC 1 VERBATIM FOREVER OR EXACTLY WHAT WE'VE GOTTEN THERE ARE NO ALTERNATIVES THEREFORE IF YOU DON'T LIKE MODERN SONIC YOU MUST WANT EVERY GAME TO BE SONIC 1 VERBATIM FOREVER
I hope this is real, the shitstorm would be amazing.
would it really have been so bad to just rehash dr.niggman stealing the emeralds again?
i'm actually crying
there's no way they would do something this bad
right?
This post made me burst out laughing for some reason, i'm sorry anon
I'd love to see sonicgays defend it, especially if its executed badly
I hope CWC can somehow react to this
On a related note, what a weird way to find out about Rogue apparently not being an internet man anymore
Well there goes any chance of me ever updating this fricking thing.
That sounds like the kind of homosexual shit Ian Flynn would come up with in the comics, yeah..
Makes me... concerned. Hmm.
>doesn't mention Sage in any way
Fake as frick, though it's definitely an entertaining read.
yeah i think this story will be about some sad backstory about SAGE rather than any lore of the Sonic world.
Like Secret Rings and Black Knight where about Sharah and Merlina.
This cannot be real but it's so fricking bonkers that I hope it is.
Honestly? I'm kinda into this plot. If this turns out to be real I'm buying the game at full price on day one just to see it for myself.
That plot might be cool in something that isn't about a fast blue hedgehog
NO FRICKING WAY
AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA*snort*AAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHA
wtf did sonic team hire kojima
This is 100% fake. A real leak would've mentioned Sage, or what happened on Starfall Islands.
It's likely before Sage was officially added to the game.
Is this the dimensional merge Chris Chan warned us about?
This is the fakest and gayest fanfic i've ever read you're all massive morons for giving this so many replies homosexuals
This is fake, but if this is real, it would be extremely and perhaps far too based
the seethe would be incredible
HE WON
I don't believe this because this is just too complicated for Sonic Team to come up with
Yes, I'm including Ian Flynn
Sage is the Aí trying to protect Sonic from waking up MAHGOD
>this is why Ian Flynn told fans not to worry about the two worlds anymore
so batshit it would be kino
If this ends up being true, I would love to see Somecallmejohnny sum up the plot
>All of the modern cast are AI-generated holograms
LOL
They say they were holograms but that bunny pussy was real.
I absolutely believe Ian would take his big chance at writing for a Sonic game to make quips about how formulaic the series is in a desperate attempt to look smart.
I'm not okay
At least half of this is fake.
Some of it is probably true, though.
The ultimate cringekino
This thread's really getting WAY out of hand, and I think it's a good time for me to put my hat in the ring.
I can't say who I am (for obvious reasons), but I'm working on Frontiers, and I'll be working on the following Sonic Project as well. Picture related as proof. Anyways, there are a couple of things that'll happen in Frontiers I don't mind sharing with you all:
>Sonic finds out he has a brother, Speedo. Speedo and Silver are the same hedgehog.
>Rogue the Bat speaks to Eggman about her sexuality. She comes out as gay. She's also been redesigned with a sidecut.
>Chao Gardens are back, and you can buy different Chaos with Chaobux (mtx).
>Sage is Maria.
Knuckles will not be in the game, and neither will Blaze.
Chris Thorndyke makes an appearance, a first for the games.
>Knuckles will not be in the game
Yeah, that's why they're dedicating a whole prolouge cartoon on him and seemingly explaining who made the Emeralds he's been guarding his WHOLE FRICKING LIFE
it's because he dies at the end of that cartoon
>Chris Thorndyke makes an appearance, a first for the games.
Based
holy shit.
could you have used a shakier blurrier still that you obviously pulled from one of the trailers
>Chris Thorndyke makes an appearance, a first for the games.
He was in SA1DX, homosexual ass larper.
>Sneedo the Hedgehog
>reverse image search
>no results
guys???
>Rouge has also been redesigned with a sidecut
yes haha, wouldn't that be awful haha...
>look up speedo the hedgehog on israelitegle
>this is the 3rd image that shows up
bros…. he’s lying….. right?
Hot
Cold
>Rogue the Bat speaks to Eggman about her sexuality. She comes out as gay. She's also been redesigned with a sidecut
Don't you fricking dare. I WILL make sure there's a 3rd nuke.
Holy mother of kino
>this is what the origins ending is leading up to
Frick you, Sega.
how does the origins ending lead to this?
Watch it.
Idk what im missing, they end up in a city thats all i see
>classic sonic dies
I like that part
The absoulute fricking seethe this would cause as it invalidates all the hardcore autism would be the greatest thing to happen to the fandom. They legit deserves this suffering.
uh oh
>Flynn also gives a bit more info on the premise of Frontiers as he speaks with IGN. Sonic along with his sidekick Tails and Amy Rose head for the Starfall Islands because the Chaos Emeralds have disappeared. Flynn says "things take a turn for the dramatic immediately, and Sonic is left alone with a lot of questions." The blue blur discovers the mystery of the Islands as he seeks to find his friends and the truth of what happened to the Emeralds.
> It sounds like a typical Sonic plot, but it seems that things may be more interesting than they appear. Ian also mentions that the melancholy atmosphere felt in the game thus far is intentional, as "Sonic's never-say-die attitude" is put to the test in this environment as he helps his friends. Flynn also hints towards some sort of new character whose "very identity is shaped by their interactions with Sonic, which isn’t always a comfortable process."
>He also states that there will be individual character arcs weaved between Frontiers and the rest of the Sonic series that fans can spot, with Dr. Eggman's character in particular being taken in "some interesting directions."
https://gamerant.com/sonic-frontiers-writer-ian-flynn-story-details-work-with-sega/
>He also states that there will be individual character arcs weaved between Frontiers and the rest of the Sonic series that fans can spot
like tails going from a good character to an obnoxious butthole to a pathetic wimp?
>Sonic is a schizophrenic AI that killed his real self and has been getting gangstalked and gaslit by Eggman since Adventure
Jesus Christ have mercy.
Kino
>laugh my ass off and hope it's true for the shitposting that'll come from it
>mfw I realize this is just Flynn's take on sonic.exe
>Everyone complains Sonic doesn't take anything seriusly anymore
>Sonic Team's reaction is to go the exact opposite extreme of doing some deranged Kingdom Hearts bullshit
I want Iizuka to die.
Hope it turns out. Sounds ballsy as frick.
I hope this finally kills the series AND Sonic Team
Anime ruined an entire generation of storytelling.
Idiot
I wish this was real so bad, just to witness this level of insanity myself. Just imagine the level of anal devastation the fandom would experience with this.
It'll be incredible if this is all just a big coincidence. That some anon's deranged fanfic from back in february managed to eerily just seem to fit in with all the information we've been given so far about the game.
Please let this be true.
Burn the whole fricker down, and start anew.
I live for these kind of bullshit plots and I will probably enjoy the gameplay of this game too it might become one of my favorite games of this year if any of this is true
FRICK THE FANBASE, LET SONIC AND SEGA GO DOWN THIS PATH AND SEE WHAT FRICKING HAPPENS NEXT!
Please be real please be real please be real please be real
too good to be true
It would be more sensible and less effort to just reboot the franchise and have a 2D timeline and 3D timeline. Good god Sega is moronic.
If this is legit will put all that Naughty Dog/Interactive adventure "we don't use the word fun" gays on shame, being asphalted in narrative by a game about giant anthropomorphic animals with a speed quirk
Please. Make it real.
I want to see it all.
I want to see everything explode and burn, until not even ash remains.
MAKE IT HAPPEN.
This might be the most moronic shit I have ever laughed at. Big if true.
Too fricking based to be real, but I would regain all respect for Sonic Team despite the game being shit. It would take serious balls to have this fanfic be an actual plot.
Never really cared about Sonic, but God, I would immediately buy every avilable game if at least 20% of this is true.
absolute, unfiltered kino
>I can't believe Sonic the Hedgehog is fricking dead
This sounds like what people who hate Kingdom Hearts think Kingdom Hearts is
No, Kingdom Hearts is way more cringe than this.
Filtered
It is actually a very Kingdom Hearts-esque plot
I'm buying this day 1 and havent played a sonic game in years
>classic characters in a modern game
You almost had me
Is this real?
I fricking wish
homie none of these are real
Everyone's saying this is awful but the best part is I get my classic characters back so the rest of you can go frick yourselves.
>green hill zone's checkerpattern; the weird palm trees and zone's other aesthetics of other zones are all because it's digital
> Special zone is abstract because it's on the outer edges of the simulation / Borderline escaping the simulation
>Sonic 06 did happen, it's just the fact that Solaris was an important element of the simulation (or was a bug) and once destroyed the simulation had to forcefully rollback that part of the scenario to an older/updated build so nothing looked suspicious
If sonic 06 happened in the real world that means it was part of the only real set of games among the adventure series as well no?
>the entire sonic timeline bends over backwards to erase itself just to justify 06's plot
would be fricking hilarious
WAIT DID THEY JUST INVALIDATE ALL SONIC GAMES AND MAKE FRICKING SONIC 06 ONE OF THE HARDEST CANON POINTS IN ONE SWOOP?
If this is true then I will buy a Sonic game for the first time in over 10 year. Godlike kino ahead!
If this is real, then this has to be the final nail in the coffin for Sonic Team, right? The backlash of another bad game with a M. Night Shyamalan-tier story that establishes the current Sonic being a fake that murdered the old Sonic from the games people actually like will be worse than anything the franchise has ever seen. Can Sega just sit back and do nothing?
it would be the best swan song in vidya history
I have no idea how this isn't considered going too far but Robotnik having depression and the Hard Boiled Heavies picking up where Eggman failed in Mania is considered going too far. I don't get it.
FIRTHY GAIJIN NO MAKE DEEPU STORY
TROO FAR
YOU RIKE CRASSIC SONIKKU?
TROO FAR NAO IS DED!
It isn't too far, Sega just didn't want westerners to have come up with it first.
why has this garbage fanfic got so many replies
why are sonicgays so autistic
i simply don't understand why this dumbass blue hedgehog preys on your minds so much
>why has this garbage fanfic got so many replies
Because the tiny chance that it is potentially true amuses me to no end.
Personally it would be glorious just to see the shitstorm unfolding.
I don't care that much about the game itself, it is probably going to be underwheilming as usual.
>NO FUN ALLOWED
I would actually fricking buy and play a sonic game if this were even half true
This makes new mention of the new e-girl character, so its probably fake, but if its real I'm going to laugh so hard that I combust.
PHANTHOM RUBY IS FRICKING PANTHOM RUBY.
HOLY AUSTIM
>Verification not required.
This is so moronic it has to be 100% true
God fricking damn it
Pure kino.
Will it turn out that frontiers is the simulation all along?
It will go the 06 way where everything is deleted from everyone’s memories.
Looking forward to later being declared noncanon because how bad the story is then I guess lol
>everything was always fake the entire time
I can't think of a single bigger copout
the lengths Iizuka will go to just to retcon the moon, unbelievable
>ripping off the plot of pic related
Is there no low sega won't stoop to?
Elaborate please
Eureka Seven got a trilogy of movies that's a knockoff of the eva rebuilds with the big twist being that every previous piece of E7 media including the original series were just dreams Eureka had to cope because she had accidentally killed Renton in the "real world"
Thanks I hate it
AO already ruined E7, why'd they have to go even further
>spoiler
as if the series wasn't full of depressing shit already
homie you can't finish there please go on
That's it, that's where the latest movie ended
what theFRICK did I just read? that's not real, right?
...ok what did I miss?
FRITHY GAJIN MRADE ALL YROUR FAVORITE CHARACTERS INTO HARUCINATIONS! WRE'LL NEVER HAVE THIS HAPPEN AGRAIN. NRO MORE PESKY GAJINS IN OUR OFFRICE!
Ian is only writing dialogue and stuff. He's been given the characters and plot points by SEGA, like Pontaff.
I know i'm just joking, I like that meme
A shame this meme died when Bubsy got revived
A shame Bubsy got revived. He has never starred in a single good game in the first place.
How many reboots has sonic had already?
Sonic 06 feels completely stand alone
Sonic unleashed the world seems drastically different
Sonic boom…very obvious
Sonic lost world- this shit literally goes a whole game unexplained and feels out of place
Sonic forces- no longer any humans to be found instead humanoid animals are civilians
Sonic mania- classic sonic is no longer a younger sonic but a different dimensional version
Sonic really has no continuity at all even when it pretends to, even the adventure games feel like a different world from the classic era games
the entirety of 3D sonic is just one shots
hell the storybook series does not even feel that out of place. i feel like they could happen in sonics world for the most part.
sonic unleashed's lore feels totally random...
>Sonic fell face first into concrete and none of his adventures were real, he was hallucinating and was in a coma the whole time
How the frick do you rebound from a blunder like this?
Hey OP I just want you to know
I would never hit Anon, but I'd lay into you
>sonic if he real
>if leaks are real sonic is now a digimon
jesus christ this is moronic.
Okay so when does Sora show up and recruit Sonic to fight the Darkness before reconvening in Quadratum?
Lmao
Ganker THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
The fact that you're all gullible and small minded enough to believe this person's baseless misinterpetation of the story just because it came from Twitter is hilarious.
Its more that Sonic Team really is that moronic that people think it could actually hapoen
Nah, it's you guys blowing things out of proportion. Relax. The only way something this nutty would happen is if Kojima or Nojima were a part of it. Or maybe Yoko Taro, but then we'd have a sexy thick butt girl in a dress and leotard walking with Sonic.
I fricking wish
I mean...who is to say Sage wont transform into one..?
>Finale sequence referencing all the past games as they are being deleted along with the current data. Ends with Sonic and the gang looming to the future
>Also Emil's head shows up for some reason
>>Also Emil's head shows up for some reason
Aw shit, Sonic vs Emil would unironically be so much fun. Imagine a Sonic style remix of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyZaNx8T-fM
It does make sense with a lot of the bullshit that's been subtly going on it the series latest stories
>directors jumping back and forth between classic sonic being from the past of from another dimension
>phantom ruby making all of mania an illusion
>forces being a bunch of illusions also
>frontiers having sonic back on a realistic setting with weird digital imagery around sonic
Add to that sonic team having the brain capacity of a 7 year old on deviantart and this doesn't seem farfetched in the slightest.
>Be Sneednic Team
>Can't write lore for shit
>Just fricking pretend that all of the inconsistencies are errors in the simulation
>Reboot the franchise
kino?
even if the game doesn't end up crazy there's got to be some kind of explaination as to why those old locations are in a computer
sonic team is incapable of coming up with an actual physics engine for a platforming game that relies on momentum
it's like nintendo not knowing how to jumping mechanics on mario games
I believe it's been stated that there are elements within SEGA that don't understand why anyone wants physics based gameplay and actually refuse to sign off on its creation.
literally kh4, but I dont think Sonic is dead
whats going on with the 'previously it was all a dream/movie/illusion' in media?
THIS IS THEIR PLAN PEOPLE!
Creators want to tell their own stories, but we just came out of an age of "CINEMATIC UNIVERSES" and "EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED" so normies are conditioned to have things be connected.
>zoomer thinks nerds assburgering about continuity wasn't a thing before shitty marvel movies
Game has dicky so I'm buying it even if it is shit
>Her design has that stereotypical pixelated AI thing
If they were going to go open world why not just study the cartoons and those cutscenes from CD for inspiration? I still am so confused how they are making this game so much more needlessly complex then it ever needed to be.
>Pulling a Star Ocean
Rip Sonic
I bet it's a trick and they're going to pull a PSO2 again.
>Iizuka going full Kojima
TROO FRAR
So basically this game is Star Ocean 3, but with Sonic?
Well it kind of makes sense since the world of Sonic is so weirdly gamey and the fact is that Sonic exists inside a video game.
super sonic odyssey
If only
The world would be a far better place if Sonic never existed.
>muh digimon
Why can't sonic gays make proper comparisons like The Matrix of Ghost in the Shell? That's where Sega obviously got the inspiration from.
The sonic canon is a joke.
Only 1 to 3&K is a good narrative.
SA1 and 2, plus the Rush games were fine. Sonic unleashed and the storybook games were ok too.
>Pulling a Star Ocean on sonic
As a Star Ocean fan no, don't do that.
sonic if he huston, tx
This is their eay of slowly retconning modern sonic so we can get ultra SOUL 3d classic sonic games
sonic on his way to finally get good games again
You guys realize it's still sonic team driving this ship, yes?
yes unfortunately
the ideal scenario is the Mania team grows into a full studio and starts making colorful classic styled games with a AAA budget
It probably wont happen ever, but a man can dream
heres some more soul pics
Sega fricking hates money, them homies are addicted to not getting paper.
The 3D design of “classic” sonic they’ve been using is fricking ugly and the fact that his name is classic sonic always annoyed me.
this, "classic" sonic according to sega is just a mini/baby version of modern sonic
this is what classic sonic is supposed to look like
after what happened to Sonic Origins i really fricking doubt it
what happened? i completely missed the last 2 years of sonic news
Origins is a remaster/re-release of classic sonic games for current gen consoles and PC made by the Sonic Mania Devs
In true Sega fashion, they got rushed to hell and it's buggy as shit
perfect dark
Ff13 is endless nonsense strung together. Yet somehow it got a bunch of also incomprehensible sequels, I guess that’s what happens when the ceo wants to frick the character.
it... won't actually be that, will it? They wouldn't do that... right?
THIS IS AN ILLUSION OPEN UP YOUR EYES AND SEE
Holy shit
Holy FRICKING shit
Listen to the fricking lyrics again
INFINITE IS THE ORIGINAL SONIC
This would actually be too kino, sonic team would never do this
but that doesn't make sense, clasic sonic appeared alongside him
Forces was a fricking fever dream amalgamation of shit, anon. If the leak is real who's to say Classic Sonic in Forces was Modern Sonic's interpretation of the steadfast hero he replaced, and Infinite/The Phantom Ruby is the anger the Original Sonic had at being killed and replaced manifesting and seeping into cyberspace?
With a leak this crazy this is NOT off the table.
That'd be some fricking twist
>I'M THE LAST ONE THAT'S STANDING. DON'T TRY TO STAY IN MY WAY
>I'VE BEEN UP AGAINST BETTER JUST TAKE A LOOK AT MY FACE
Either that or a literal Sonic clone that survived countless failed cloning attempts
"I've been up against better just take a look at my face" just refers to his face being scarred.
He says that because Shadow killed his squad, beat his ass, and then he took "Don't show your pathetic face around me ever again" literally
>Infinite/The Phantom Ruby is the anger the Original Sonic had at being killed and replaced manifesting and seeping into cyberspace
i hate that this actually makes sense. especially given what i know about ian flynn's writing in archie
>ian flynn's revenge for penders taking away the rights to scourge was to literally turn modern sonic and the donut steel villain into scourge and rewrite the entire fricking canon
LOL
Does this mean Sonic fans will go back and analyze every Sonic song and look for clues?
>"You can call me Knuckles, unlike Sonic I don't chuckle"
>"I'd rather flex my muscles"
>muscles
>modern sonic lacks muscles
HOLY SHIT
HE WOULD RATHER FLEX HIS MUSCLES BECAUSE HE IS FROZEN IN STATIS AND IF HE DOESN'T FLEX THEN HIS MUSCLES WILL ATROPHY
IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW
>Knuckles claims he doesn't chuckle
>has chuckled multiple times after this statement
The ai is using data from when Knuckles had his less serious and more mischievous attitude from 3K, we will return to the real Knuckles after all these years (who won't chuckle anymore)
Literally the definition of generic, i'm pretty sure they barely attack sonic too and mostly exist as homing attack food
>It doesn't matter who is wrong or who is right
Evil "doppelgangers" confirmed
They already do those homies moronic
>Actually thinking Sonic Team can think ahead to such an extent
lmao
>SO LOOK AROUND YOU AND TELL ME WHAT YOU REALLY SEE
>YOU LIVE A LIE AND THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE IN YOU AND ME
Chester Bennington of Linkin Park died the day this song was released.
I'm cautiously optimistic about the game. I always felt Sonic could use some super simple yet flashy combat that keeps the feeling of speed without having to focus on running and platforming. That way you're slowing the player down so they don't blitz through the game, but it still feels fun. Just so long as it doesn't get as repetitive as the Werehog bits.
That leak's fricking moronic though, and if that's even remotely close to the story I will be saving my 60 bucks.
I fricking hate these badnik designs they're so ass
It's just the same modern motobug design they've been using for years now.
Still, some new unique badniks would be cool
Yeah I know, I just hate seeing it reused, its so bland. I don't even remember what forces had.
They saw the cartoony designs and thought they'd look good as baby toys, such a disgrace. Why is it so fricking hard to translate them into 3D? I get that not a lot of people care about the badniks but come on.
At least it isn't Sonic 4's version
Oh bro, the Forces Egg Pawn has to be the worst fricking one.
It feels like a public use generic robot that you could find on a 3D asset sharing site.
Some of the Sonic 4 badnik designs are alright but yeah its motobug was horrendous.
I take that over Lost World's take on the badniks
Frick no, I will take the Gens edgy redesigns coming back a thousand times over the toddler ones from Lost World
>Generations and Lost World both give Moto Bug black spots like a ladybug.
ITS. NOT. A. LADY. BUG.
THE BADNIK COLOR SCHEMES DIDNT REFLECT REAL WORLD TRAITS. LOOK AT THE CLAWS. LADYBUGS DON'T HAVE CLAWS.
They were not meant to be ladybugs? Even before those two games were released, I always thought they were
They're red bugs but that doesn't mean anything in Sonic 1. The bees are blue, the fish are red, the caterpillars are purple, moto bug being red doesn't necessarily indicate anything specific about the animal it is based on. The most notable feature shared among the moto bug variants in the early games is the two big claws at the front. Those along with the round shape seems to be much more indicative of a cicada nymph, not a ladybug.
Interesting. The more you know
look fine
Alright, since no one is bringing it up
Why is Sonic SO TINY in this game? The cars and now the motobugs are like 3 times bigger next to his model then they should be, is this really proving it's all a simulation is legit? Nothing is making sense in this game at all.
He's a hedgehog anon hedgehogs are small
He was bigger in SA2/Unleashed homosexual. Look at Mario. He's typically TALLER than Mario.
WHAT
If they actually do what the leak says, it must mean they are killing Sonic for good after this or selling him off to Microsoft or Nintendo and thus ending the SEGA era of Sonic.
>SEGA of Japan so pissed about Mania team going too far and making a superior game that they release a shitty version of the classics and then kill off the characters in the new game
Makes sense. Was I the only one who suspected this?
everyone calm down, that leak is bullshit
here's the real deal
>chao garden
haha good one. if that was there then the game would be a 9/10 according to the normies
the plot shit lines up way more than the other one, mentioning the AI girl and the big titan at the end of todays trailer
>chao garden
BROS GET IN HERE RIGHT FRICKING NOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWW
He made up the chao garden just to mess with people, but I'm willing to believe the rest of his leak is real
After seeing the above leak, I'm unironically disappointed, I would have loved to see the complete shitstorm in the Sonic fanbase from retconning everything.
SAGE being a villain is hilarious because the Sonic Amateur Games Expo is where a lot of these fangames that look better than the real deals come from, IIRC many of the Mania/Origins people are a part of that too.
I'm befuddled by people online acting like having repurposed Generations assets floating in voids is a good idea.
This is NOT going to go well with the fanbase knowing how autistic sonicgays are
>Nintendo looks at the success of Super Mario USA and decides that sure, it WAS all a dream, buy Shy Guys and Ninji are real.
>Sega looks at the successful Sonic 1-3 and decides everyone's favorite games were fake and don't matter.
>and decides everyone's favorite games were fake and don't matter.
Sounds like a you problem, the good games are still canon.
Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers confirmed as a canon spin-off. Because why fricking not.
I don't give two shit about this homosexual and what he said, because it's fricking nothing. All i want to know if this piss poor ass game will run smoothly on the switch.
Why would it? Nothing does.
If the Nintendo direct gameplay we saw was any indication it runs poorly
Also
I highly doubt that the story is this ""deep"" and that it's not just about an AI gone rogue, so the cyberspace is AI training data
tfw the actual plot won't be nearly as entertaining as the schizo theories
So they just stole Rayman 4's plot?
Please, god, just nuke SEGA. Please. I want the end of autistic Sonic. We need to go back before the world become filled with trannies and tacoskins.
>People are falling for the "Ash was in a coma the whole time" headcanon
Why are you mentally ill fricks ALWAYS falling for the weakest, oldest shitpost bait in modern history?
Because its funny
Because this is Sonic and it's 100% on the table of possibility of it being that moronic.
>The Dimensional Merge is real
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Classic Sonic, Modern Sonic, Movie Sonic crossover when
Nice it's danganronpa
They just can’t help but shoot themselves in the foot.
Would be funny if true. The writer is the IDW comics guy, right?
No, he only does the dialog. You morons, he said that.
>Makes spics, pedos, trannies and Japs seethe for all eternity
What a absolute CHAD.
Why Sonic games don't have a simple plot like Mario games?
Because simple plots are boring and Mario is a basic b***h that drones like cause of safeness
Take medication, schizo
People like Mario because his gameplay is straightforward and rock fricking solid. You run, you jump, and occasionally pick things up. Easy to learn, difficult to master.
Sonic's formula is the same, yet somehow significantly worse in every respect.
I will concede that people do like Sonic as a character more than Mario, but Mario was never meant to be likeable. He's just the proxy by which the player interacts with the level, and a mascot of a brand.
Because sega hates fun, seriously when was the last truly fun sonic game excluding mania?
Sonic Unleashed on a Series X for smooth locked 60fps.
dumb newbies sonic was always just fictional story from his very inception in japanese, you were just ignorant and uniformed
https://info.sonicretro.org/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_(16-bit)/Development#Fictional_character_origin
>The story begins in 1947 America, where an unnamed fighter pilot was nicknamed "hedgehog," due to the way his hair would stand up on end when he took off his flight helmet. His wife, Marie Granette, who was an author of children's books, was inspired to create a character based on her husband's nickname. Calling this character "Sonic," she would also tell these stories to their daughter.
it's like how robotnik was always eggman but westerners didn't know and thought stuff that was always there was retconned
Now that is some deep lore.
Post the origin story of Sonic where he was a bum living under a nebraskian burger king
>Sonny Hedgehog was born on earth in the early 21st century, in the town of Hardly, Nebraska, population 1,226. He and his mother and five sisters live underneath a scraggly hedge beside the local burger joint, and subsist on burger scraps, milkshakes, and the occasional slug or bug that crawls their way. They are a poor but happy family.
>Unfortunately, Sonny's dad died when Sonny was just a few days old, after falling into a gurgling, festering vat of toxic waste dumped in a nearby pond.
>Mama Hedgehog does her best to keep Dad's memory alive, however, regaling the kids with stories of his goodness, resourcefulness, and great agility.
>"He was the fastest hedge-runner this town has ever seen!" she exclaimed as her family enjoyed tea and mealworms in front of a roaring fire. "I hope all of you will take after him," she said wistfully as she cast a loving eye upon Sonny. Sonny looked up at the framed photo of his father which stood proudly on the mantel. The firelight cast strange yet comforting shadows on the earthen walls and ceiling of the burrow. All at once, the face in the picture seemed to snuffle and wink.

lmao it's been forever since i read this
>SEGA seethed so badly over Sonic the Movie 1 being an origin story that they had to mald so hard they made one based on BoTW
Kek. What a shit company.
>This entire thread
Do sonicgays really? Holy shit I feel bad for you guys
That sounds completely moronic. No one asked for that.
So Ian been huffing that Nomura crack?
AN OATH TO RETURN
SONIC THE HEDGEHOG
Please don't remind me.
Remind THEM instead
*raughs*
Very interesting gaijin story!
What if Frontiers is real and we're the simulation and this is apex of the dimensional merge?
What's with the latest trend of connecting cartoon videogame characters with the human world?
Odyssey had new donk city, the latest kirby is set on earth, sonic goes to the real world, splatoon slowly introduces humans back even though they are supposed to be extinct.
>the latest kirby is set on earth
The planet Earth was already established to exist in Kirby 64. Lost World simply took place in an Earth like alternate universe.
>What's with the latest trend of connecting cartoon videogame characters with the human world?
Autism. Max autism. People LITEARLLYcannot seperate fiction from reality anymore
>Trannies get called out for hating 2D anime girls
>Pedos get called out for loving 2D anime girls
>Realizing both sides are obsessed over fiction and cannot separate the two
We live in a clown simulation.
if i remember correctly wasn't generations plot was that eggman was just literally in space and he found the "time eater" out of nowhere? that shit wasn't even explained
That was right after his defeat in Colors where he was launched into space after his Nega-Wisp mech got trashed. He found the Time-Eater in it's primodial form, and somehow domesticated it, then used it's power to grab his past self to help with concocting his plan. Although it didn't amount to shit.
Funny how Forces doesn't explain or acknowledge how Eggman came back from that void beyond space and time. He's just reeeeaally smart I guess.
>Funny how Forces doesn't explain or acknowledge how Eggman came back from that void beyond space and time. He's just reeeeaally smart I guess.
i mean he pretty much does the same thing in the second movie
and he had TWO of him in the void
>all these women and vydia journo demanding safe boring stories where yku just run around some green hills for 6 hours, or serious plots involving a talking blue hedgehog
Frick that, you want that so bad go play fricking Zelda, I say let them go all out and make the most batshit insane plots they can come up with. Let us run at supersonic speed on the edge of a dimensional rift while hearing Sonic get called a psycho murderer by characters he thought were old buddies.
>twitter.com
ok
Like half of JRPGs are insane. Even the most acclaimed like FF7 is bat shit lunacy
>JRPGs
Stop calling this fricking shit RPG, they're anything else but role-playing games.
CRPGs are the real deal. Frick off.
HAHA
ONE!
troony video
>Sonic goes to the real world
Look Sega, I know it worked for the movies, but this won't work for the games.
So the Sonic Team's solution to the huge success of Sonic Mania, is NOT to try and make a Sonic Mania 2, or any great 2D games, but instead, to literally claim that all the 2D games took place in a fictional world and therefore everything you liked before was fake. I've heard of spiteful developers, but this is ridiculous.
If you think the plot of Frontiers is bad, why don't you write one yourself?
If it's the real world then why does it still have floating rails and all the other gadgets?
And people unironically try to claim Japs aren't racist to the west.
Sonic says: Frick women
basted
>Hi Sonic... I-I've been meaning to tell you something...

Hey guys I know Sega heres my leak

Trust me bros it's gonna be kino
THANK YOU, FRICKING RETCON EVERYTHING EXCEPT SONIC ADVENTURE 2, EVERYTHING, EVEN SONIC ADVENTURE 1
dragons dogma... the last 1/3 of the game you know it when you get to it lmao
Resident Evil
Silent Hill
Metal Gear Solid
Death Stranding
Apologize to Star Ocean 3 RIGHT FRICKING NOW
So Sonic Adventure is canon to this game since took place in the real world?
It retcons everything post S&K.
Adventure is the starting point where everything is no longer cannon or at least "real".
Why are people so obsessed with the Adventure games?
Shadow's story was an important part of my childhood
Your childhood sounds cringe.
playing games with my cousins and my brother, and then switching controllers for our favorite characters was fun
Shadow is the ONLY reason I like this franchise, without Shadow, there's nothing for me here.
Same reason you love Pokemon, Star Wars, or other media, because it was fun and formed some formative experiences
>without Shadow, there's nothing for me here.
Damn dude, I'm REALLY sorry to hear that.
If I didn't play the dark story when I was 6, I wouldn't be a fan of this franchise.
The core of why I got interested would be removed.
>Same reason you love Pokemon, Star Wars, or other media, because it was fun and formed some formative experiences
No, by your logic, you'd like Pokemon for Eevee and not for the main character itself
Liking Wario doesn't make you a Mario fan. You're a leech.
Liking anyone but the main character makes me a leech?
Sonic fans are fricking moronic
How fricking embarassing.
> I played, I played, sonic 2d, as a kid, that's why I'm a fan
nice try
I'm sorry to hear that.
>childhood
Hate newbies and zoomers like you wouldn't even believe
Sonic Adventure 2 came out in 2001. That anon, bare minimum, is in his mid 20s. Possibly pushing 30.
Literal baby tier
they were the only good 3d sonic games. every single attempt at different formulas turned out to be trash.
This has to be spite at this point. "you don't like what we make so lets just make it shittier."
>Sonic kills the demiurge
Someone edit that image with Arnie leaving the demiurge's temple and put Sonic instead
I hate the antichrist and I hate Tails.
>we are the simulation
>Sonic was real all along
>Infinite gets revealed in 2017
>think he's gonna be a meta-commentary because of the glitch effect all around him
>ends up being nothing
>Sage gets revealed in 2022
>basically Infinite 2 without the glitches and as a e-girl
>this time "leaks" say she's going to be meta-commentary, even crazier than what i expected for Infinite
i wonder if they really will do it
I wouldn't worry, if the idea is bad and the end result is universally panned, they will just pretend none of that happened as usual.
Discontinuity.
I want this to be real so fricking badly just for the internet-wide shit storm and debating tgat will come. This is the ST I admire; the dream big and fail kind of ST.
>Meta Era was so trash Sega is just going to delete 80% of the franchise.
Lmfao.
It's for the best.
Sonic's lore is a fricking mess, the slate needs to cleaned.
>first game after the simulation starts
>"I AM METAL SONIC, I AM THE REAL SONIC"
>"Long time no see sonic, my LOATHSOME COPY!"
>returns to his classic design after getting beat
metal sonic really was the real sonic all along...
It's Silent Hill shit. Modern Sonic's guilt manifested onto Metal Sonic.
Please be batshit insane and played completely straight.
IT WAS ALL A DREAM
that is so fricking gay if true
wait wait wait
so the plot, ALLEGEDLY, is
>Evil Modern Sonic gets rid of the Classic one
>gets connected to the cope machine
>the cope machine broke, Sonic rushes to bring out Tails, Amy and Knux out of the matrix
It sounds bonkers but consider the Sonic Team logic:
>through the power of friendship, npc's become REAL, thus making the stories REAL as well so It's not fricked up at all
>the classic/modern universes are connected
>they are free to use Silver and Blaze without raising questions
>they can introduce even more bonkers sci-fi shit to the universe
>Eggman enters a whole new higher tier of villainy considering all of this bullshit
>santiago is real
What are the games in the series that are actually good? IT seems like 90% of the 3D ones are terrible
>escaping the island means discovering yourself and ascending
>Sonic Team made The Talos Principle with a blue hedgehog
what if sonic but he real
DONUT LORD LETS FRICKING GOOOOOOOOO
