Sonic Discussion

@Mike  
Maybe they went extinct from the disease known as “Writers Lost Interest”.

What is the Master Emerald’s purpose anyways? Other than holding up a floating island, I mean.

@HJSDGCE
 
Neutralizing the Chaos Emeralds and being what Chaos and Tikal were sealed in…

@Jarkes  
… Is that it?
 
I feel a bit disappointed.

@Jarkes  
Sonic Adventure even kinda hints the cute chao, and Chaos Zero have some relations to the Master Emerald.
 
Don’t forget it’s capable of unspeakable power and the ancient echidnas wanted it. Eggman wanted it to power his Death Egg too.

@Beau Skunky  
Or just Chaos.

@Background Pony #F596  
He was protecting the chao at the Master Emerald shrine though in the past.

@HJSDGCE
 
I took a gander at the Sonic wiki and apparently its more powerful than the chaos emeralds .Said it was the MOSt powerful relic on earth/Mobius? It can not only neutralise the chaos emeralds but amplify them as well.
 
Part of the reason Knuckle guards the thing is because some asshole will try to abuse its power if he doesn’t

So the Super Sonic DLC for Sonic Forces will cost $1.99 (or at least 1.99 Euros in Europe, but I can’t do the Euros sign on my keyboard and presumably it’ll cost $1.99 in the US) after January 23rd.
 
…What the actual fuck, Sonic Team? Why are you making us pay extra for freaking Super Sonic?

Can we pay for playable Tails? Knuckles? Silver? …Big?
 
No? Okay then. :<

Ooh, free Sanic T-Shirts.

@Marx  
How come it isn’t a more common plot device anyways?

@Beau Skunky  
I’d rather call him “Chaos” without a number.

@Background Pony #F596  
I did that to differentiate him from the cute li’l chao (Pronounced “chow” confusingly) characters.
 
@LightningBolt  
Agreed, that would be better DLC.
 
Big the cat would actually be hilarious to play as. He was actually kinda fun in Sonic Heroes.
 
@HJSDGCE  
I guess it’s because we hardly see the floating Angel Island in the games much anymore. Kinda surprising, sense it’s basically Knuckles’ home.

Just saying. I never hated Big the Cat and never understood it.

@fobone  
Most people just hate the fishing.

@Mike  
It’s okay. Nothing to get worked up over.

@fobone  
It’s boring as hell.

So are most fishing mini-games.
 
 
…Except for Animal Crossing.

@fobone  
And Stardew Valley. It’s actually interactive and not just “click when it wiggles”.

Fishing in Zelda is fun too.
 
I think Big’s would’ve been better if it had better controls, but at least his story was the shortest.  
That aside, I do like Big’s character. His design is also very unique for a Sonic character. I miss him making Derpy-like cameos in the series.

@BrownieComicWriter  
How am I close to “toxic fanboyism”?
 
@Beau Skunky  
YES, that’s what I’ve been trying to say.
 
Also I want to apologize for riling everyone up here again. I was just getting upset about something I believe is inevitable and I have yet to see anyone say anything positive about Sonic Forces here.

@Red-Supernova  
I think you just need to not take your interests so seriously man. If you take offense at people not liking the things you do you’ll never get far in life.

Apparently, Ian Flynn is writing an official one-shot Arms comic for Nintendo & Dark Horse Comics for Free Comic Book Day.  
After writing for Sonic & Megaman, this marks his third video game comic, and first Nintendo one.

@Beau Skunky
 
Actually, Amy’s story in Sonic Adventure was the shortest. Big had 4 stages, whereas Amy only had 3 (though Amy also had the longest stage in the game in Hot Shelter).
