I'll give IDW this, it at least gives a reason behind why Eggman does the things he does.

I am concern about the monster and headache Sonic Fans are calling for, by asking Sonic to experience pain and loss. I've been around to know Sonic fans come to regret things we ask for.

While I understand that theory, tbh I just think it's the folly of expecting a serious/mature story from Happy Tree Friends writers.
Shadow already fit that niche perfectly

Does that pain and loss count if we go back into the 2000's? Because there's a lot of loss there

Nah clearly the citizens of station square are the fastest things alive and Sonic is just a poser.

Ofc I don't blame them. I mean imagining hiring new writers that have zero knowledge of the franchise? (minus the normie surface level stuff that even a grandma would know).
- 5,825
- 7,298
It can work tbf, it's just that I feel it doesn't happen often and it requires writers who have experience in that field of genre.
Considering SEGA hired two guys who only focused on adult content and who have stated in interviews they knew nothing about Sonic whatsoever outside of clips on YouTube, even as a kid I knew the level of writing felt lackluster at points compared to my ventures on the GameCube games and Unleashed

It's almost like being a fan of the franchise helps. Regardless it kinda feels like Sega used them as a scapegoat for the Sonic fandom's wrath (even though Sega hired them in the first place and they made it clear they knew next to nothing about Sonic).
Sega is notorious for "learning" the wrong lessons but I digress in the matter.

Left them to the wolves, so to say huh? Well it ain't the first time I've seen this behavior.
Real shame because outside of Sonic, I think Pontac and Graff are decent writers

I'm really digging that animation style, though IMO seeing the wisps being used AGAIN gives me some serious dry heave

It's always a delight hearing Mike Pollack as Doctor Eggman, one of the best things to come out of the 4Kids dub

Because it's a repeated effect across its existence due to Temporal AoE.

Uncountably X baseline. It's hard to put a precise number on it, but it was HIGH. Super high. They were, physically, the strongest non-infinitely above baseline 2-As

Does that come from the power boost of the Emeralds after the Great Harmony? Because apperantly they became more powerful after that

Yes. The Great Harmony multipled Power and Speed.

Oof... kinda reminds me of that infamous Switch version of Balan Wonderworld.

Thank god I'm getting this on PC, this looks absolutely atrocious and is one of the worst Switch ports ever

The PC version is the least glitchy (naturally) however there are some known audio and cutscene issues but I think there are mostly minor or annoying at worst.
Be forewarned the PS4 version is next glitchest version (after the Switch) there've been multiple reports of the game crashing or freezing in Aquarium Park or against Metal Sonic plus a couple of issues with save files getting corrupted or deleted (it's mostly related to the red rings iirc).
That said there's no guarantee you'll encounter these glitches, some folks have played the Switch version with little to no noticeable issues whatsoever but it's best to "be prepared".

Okay if anyone knows, who on earth developed this game either in or outside SEGA? This is an abysmal port to an otherwise solid game

So the guys behind Mass Effect Legendary Edition huh? You know if they wanted a Switch port, they should've asked for Panic Button to do it with their wizardry in porting games to Switch

It should be common knowledge now that BRB weren't the main reason Boom RoL failed. They were lead into believing that the game would be on PC and PS4/Xbone but Sega forced them to port the game as well as the engine to the Wii U as an exclusive (mid-development), they had to scrap all their original concepts to tie-in to the TV show (such as the original story, ancient Chao, much of the lore, etc) and ofc release the game with Nintendo's (non-negotiable) contracted deadline. Suffice to say BRB got screwed... :/
These days BRB are doing decently for themselves as an indie developer (go figure).
