Serious question why do people like this series made for literal babies. I played Return to Dream Land and Super Star and nothing was particularly special about them other than having a cutesy artstyle and the twist in Return to Dreamland. Mario is better, Sonic is better, Mega man is better, ninja gaiden is better, Castelvania is better, Donkey Kong is Better, and Rocket Knight is better. Prove me wrong

It's a comfy platformer, the perfect game to play when you're tired after a long day. Something to relax with. Mario's like that too.
Certain games, like Castlevania, are better to sit down and dedicate serious time to, concentrate fully and have a pretty challenging time (if you're playing one of the good ones, and not 4 or the Metroidvanias). Kirby is something you pick up for 20 minutes and relax with.

Is that the reason why Sonic has so many autists in it's community? The sense of speed creates sensory overload in young minds, and without the ability to mentally blast process, it completely warps the developing mind.

I am from Russia, where Sonic was insanely popular in the '90s and spawned a GIGANTIC long-lasting (especially for the early '00s) that's still somewhat alive to this day.
Back during that time, most comics weren't publicly available (and most Russians couldn't speak English), and yet I'd argue this community is much more autistic than the American one, which at least has safe havens like Sonic Retro.
I myself loved Sonic because of playing Sonic 3 & Knuckles, but the actual turboautism was no doubt propagated by the Sonic Adventure series. Espesially Sonic Adventure 2, that one's a doozy, many still think it's one of the best Sonic games (or even best games period) ever made. A lot of older Sonic fans there also fucking adore StH2006 and consider it to be 'the last good one'.

Sonic Comics started off as just lighthearted adventures filed with gags, but then at some point Ken Penders got a little too creative, he was basically aloud to write whatever autism his heart desired without a leash from 1994 to 2006, until some Sega executive noticed an issue of the comic with Sonic crying on the cover like a little bitch and put a stop to things.

While I wouldn't say the Adventure era didn't caused it's fair share of autism since I'm fairly autistic myself when it comes to that era, The comic books were far more rife with it, for a far longer period of time.

Not in the senses that it's a quality product since it's clearly an unfinished rushed out mess, but I enjoyed the direction of the adventure era, far more then what modern Sonic currently is which i find rather bland in comparison.
When you get invested in a particular part of Sonic it's hard not to be autistic about it simply given what the subject matter is on a fundamental level.

Autism's still live and well in the Sonic games. The only ones I can think of that didn't feature it too explicitly were Colors, which mostly was just Sonic, Tails and Robotnik, and Lost World, which featured a few characters in the Ending but that's about it. Forces focused heavily on the extended cast, and even Generations gave them a bigger focus.

I first perceived Sonic Colors as a breath of fresh air, as I never played Unleashed.
However, that was mostly due to it being an okay game with the writing shift as an icing on the cake.
Looking back on it now, though, I find it cringy and bland and am also getting tired of the current direction.
I think a balance can be achieved between seriousness and 'gameyness'/light-heartedness. Many cartoony characters pull that off, so Sonic can too.
To achieve that, however, that more grounded nature should come from gradual character development, peferrably spanning many games, rather than the le epik anime plotlines the serious used to have.
That would require the devs not to shift gears every fucking game and actually develop a consistent direction and philosophy for the series with a strong core gameplay foundation to boot, which they still haven't fucking done since the shift to 3D.
>>16204990
I wouldn't consider Colors, Generations (as there's barely any story), Lost World, Sonic 4 or Mania autistic. They're just being cartoony, really. The extended cast themselves isn't the problem, or it least could have been handled in the way so it wouldn't be perceived as such. Except for Shadow, maybe.
The damage's been done, though, and it would require time and soft-rebooting the series again to properly reintroduce new characters without retarded shit.
I'll give you Sonic Forces though. I always forget this game fucking existed, and consider it to be the worst entry in the whole series (yes, worse than '06), even though it's technically much more sound than any SA game or '06.
It's the first game in the mainline series which didn't even try introducing something new (however misguided and haphazard the previous attempts have been), and the first game in the series period where I felt like literally no one gave a single fuck.
Even '06 and ShTH had a glimmer of a good intention underneath, ruined by complete incompetence on part of the devs or SEGA themselves (like the constant deadline shit).
This one didn't have anything of the sort, it's the blandest game in the whole series and it makes you feel like everyone working on it have been dead inside. Such a fitting and poetic contrast to Mania, really.

I actually like the way the SA-type games control the most, now that I think about it.
If they made a game with a similar gameplay style, but with no bugs or incessant scripting and with a couple of fresh addittions to the core gameplay, I'd be down for it.
Something like Sonic Utopia would be ideal, of course, but I'd never expect anything of the sort from Sonic Team, unless a new fan-team similar to Team Mania takes the reins and develops an actual working engine.

The most insufferable, I think, are Paper Mario fags, specifically TTYDfags, since they refuse to admit any other games had good elements and will hate any new Paper Mario unless it's TTYD HD.

I don't think PM/TTYD had the most engaging of gameplay either. They were pretty barebones as far as RPGs go, so I was not bothered by the gameplay of SPM as much. SPM was far too easy, that's true.
SPM has that reputation nowadays moreso, but people hated it quite bad before Sticker Star. Even now, I think there's a significant portion of the fanbase (25% if I had to guess) that still think SPM is shit.
I don't know much about Sticker Star, but Color Splash had pretty good music, pretty close to SPM in terms of quality. I thought 64 had a mixed soundtrack, with half of it being good and half being mediocre to bad, and TTYD had a pretty crap soundtrack, with the exception of two songs.
I also thought Color Splash, while having next to no story, had some solid writing in its humor, again, not as good as SPM, but certainly better than TTYD.
TTYD also felt like a rethread of 64 in terms of partners, except for Vivian and Flurrie; I don't think the locations were as interesting or as fun, especially since the game was plagued with backtracking and repetition, something that none of the other games had (SPM came the closest).
e78c2a No.16205735
>>16205665
>I don't think the locations were as interesting or as fun
I can only remember PM1's locations as "forest place, desert place, ice place, Toad Town, Bowser Castle." Like any typical Mario game. The only locations that stuck out as unique to me were Boo Woods with the canyon, and the flower fields. Meanwhile TTYD had the surreal Boggly Woods, pro wrestling arena Glitzpit, marooned on Keelhaul Key, the Excess Express, Twilight Town, The Moon and the X-Naut base, and Rogueport itself. So I don't know how the hell you think all that was inferior to Paper Mario 1.
And all I know of Sticker Star and Color Splash's writing is that it's nothing but weak paper jokes ad nauseum, and "lel so quirky" Toads, all stretched over such barebones and repetitive game mechanics that their predecessors DO look like sterling examples of RPG design by comparison.

Now I'm not retarded enough to actually defend Sonic Forces, it was a bland on-rails day-waster at best, but your post outlines EVERYTHING wrong with the Sonic fandom and also why SEGA will never be able to satisfy you. You simply do not know what you want and it's really harsh on SEGA who I think genuinely care about fans and customers (hence why they brought in Taxman and Stealth for Mania) because how can they give the Sonic fan base what they want when the fanbase itself can't agree on what they want?
There is a real split in the community. some (mainly older fans like myself) want more classic style games and would prefer Sonic to revert to a 2D only series, while others want SA style games. Heck, I imagine another section really dig the boost games and would prefer to keep that.
But therein lies the issue. Classic Sonic was at best a compromise on this in that Generations was an attempt to keep everyone happy, but it can't continue this formula and Forces proves this.
The Sonic fandom need to either agree on what they want or they'll be disappointed forever.

I'm ok with playing as a pink girl (female Jigglypuff) or a blue boy (Metaknight). They uphold the traditional gender roles, so they're fine in my book. But wanting to play as a pink boy (Kirby) who acts all cutesy is more of an LGBT thing. And I ain't a fag.

Pretty much just that for me. If you want Kirby that isn't "for babies" go play Copy Kitty or something.

Just because meleefags are the only ones with any real presence today doesn't change the fact all cube kiddies are insufferable shits raised in single parent households that tout their ambiguous gender identity along with their garbage childhood games.

There's no reason every game needs to appeal to an entire fanbase. Most Sonic iterations have had strong titles, whether it's the 2D, the Adventures and even the Rushes. One-offs like the Black Knight and Sonic RPG are always going to be poorly received nonsense.

Kirby 64 is the best one. Just played through it again last week.

It also doesn't change the fact that most games late in a franchise are garbage and the earlier iterations are often better that have deeper mechanics and that try to actually make a good game and not a streamlined mess for casuals.

In his defense Jigglypuff has a 75% chance to being female.

Majority of Puffs are female.
