do you guys wish Sonic Team or the writers of the IDW comics would do more unconventional storylines, plot points, and team-ups?
I would like to see a story where Amy goes on a long journey by herself and meets new villains and old friends along the way. She needs that sort of character development I think.

If they did make an Amy spin-off game it better supply with obscure references and alternative Costumes

Sonicfag? What kind of small bumfuck town does he live in where people are autistic enough to say that out loud? I graduated in 2016 in one of the biggest cities in the US and I was never picked on for liking Sonic, ever. I even saw some kids with Sonic backpacks in my school and this was in 2014-2016.
The rest is cute, though.

At least in the case of Sonic Team, that's the least of my concerns. They should first write a normal story worth giving a damn for. Regarding the comics, I'm sure we'll eventually see everything you mention once things are more settled down.

by the way. I doubt any one character outside of Sonic would get the attention the story you mention would need.

Shadow would have stayed dead or been the final boss :))
Or at least throw Amy in with Mighty and Ray. Idk. I just don't like her with Cream or Big all that much.

Unconventionality is normally an attention grabbing interest for most readers who are drawn to a particular story, like S3K or the Adventure series. They've been too run of the mill lately, even Forces was predictable as shit.

You think SEGA mandates prevents some characters from doing certain stuff?

By going unconventional they would appeal the most to a reduced part of their clients, and at this point I doubt that's what they want to do.
>They've been too run of the mill lately, even Forces was predictable as shit.
I agree completely, but it's not necessary to do something unconventional for it to be good. Unless you mean that a god story would be unconventional because the stories we usually get in the games are shit.
>>4920
>You think SEGA mandates prevents some characters from doing certain stuff?
Maybe, but I was more so talking about what I mentioned above. Not everyone is interested in some characters so giving those characters a lot of focus is something they'll probably avoid, at least until they do other things first.

Has anyone used Mania character replacement mods here? Have you liked any of them?
I am trying to find a good Amy Rose mod that suffices most of my requirements
>Edited moveset as opposed to replaced animation
>MOST IMPORTANTLY, a spritesheet that resembles the Mania sprite style instead of an obvious slight edit of a spritesheet from 2005
Nothing so far is meeting my standards, but I'll have to look further I guess. I was hoping for a game that's been out since last year would have more polished mods but I guess not.
Also, a bit unrelated, but last year, I recall some guy on /sthg/ was modding Mighty & Espio into Sonic Mania. I told him my ideas for Mighty's moveset based on his Knuckles Chaotix moveset, e.g, to make him have a bound jump that works as a slightly stronger Bubble Shield in function and a wall kick. The modder said I had a horrible idea and called me an idiot. I'm reminded of this shit every time I play as Mighty with his hammer drop in Mania.
Fucking shithead.

So, how do you suppose they write a good story? The key would be consistency and character development, of course, but also, there should be good character interaction and some unexpected things happening in the story which catches the fan interests. Sonic fans were never too big on predictable storylines, I think.

>modding Mighty into Mania
Oh yeah, I remember that. Kinda funny, considering Mighty's now in the game.
Also, I haven't really messed around with character replacement mods but I've been looking for a good Amy in Mania mod. Maybe I haven't been looking at the right places, but I've yet to find one that suits my needs.

The things you mention sound good to begin with and are things current stories lack. Hell, just making the stories make sense and have some fucking cohesion would make miles of difference.

If they had a better idea for a mod, I think they would do it, but they probably don't so they just do a meme mod.
