Just chill out, eat a chili dog and enjoy Sonic

It's like I said, Sonic Boom is a show full of hits and misses. Some gags are great, some of them suck.

Alternately: Razorsaw, disengage if that's what makes you feel better, but never take Gammatron's advice on anything. When he isn't insisting everyone calm down and stop taking things so seriously, he's sharing islamophobic memes on Twitter and complaining about Black Lives Matter.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.

Golden Goat posted:

Curve ball bitch! It's Flynn chat!

So I was watching the Fund the Computer Room replay where Ian commented over Sonic Colours and answered a few questions, namely stuff that he could (Only a little "Knowing Smile" which he used when asked if he was aware IDW was doing its announcement) Talked about submitting a script for Colours, writing for Sonic Boom for 2 episodes (He wrote more and said if they get a season 3 they might use them there), talked about his goal when he first took over the book (It was this weird Sword and Sorcery Science fiction.... furry thing. And I wanted to make it a comic about Sonic.) The creation of Eggman's Dozen and WHY he picked their designs (Thunderbolt was originally menacing, but when Aleah suggested that he instead make her something unassuming, she became the comedy character she is) With the idea being he'd used Unleashed to build Sonic's world, he would set up an Egg-Boss and conflict and Allies in each area with the idea being "Now, at any time, Sonic can go to any part of the world, and has a plot."

His other main focus was bringing the villains under Eggman's heel, since there was too often in the comic a feeling that Eggman was a sideshow villain in the series.


Anyway the audio quality is poo poo, and there are connection issues, but it's worth a watch.

Side note, going through old comic issues, 2 things.

1. When Karl Bollers wrote Sonic's Time Skip to a year later, one of the things he wanted to do was actually incorporate Amy, who had to this point been used... not at all basically, into the plot as a fighter character, not one shoved off to school or to her off-screen Robin Hood cousin. Anyway, the artist for these issues was loving awful, but more hilariously, knew NOTHING about Sonic, main way to know this? Well, one of the big scenes of the book, was that while Vector was defending the city from robot hordes using giant speakers and a turntable set up (Also, when people ask me why I give Bollers a pass for improving, because "And Vector defends the fortress with a gigantic speaker set up and a turntable to give Amy Rose enough time to use her magical girl powers to empower her hammer to berserker rush the enemy army" is just cool.)

Anyway, point is, the artist, instead of drawing her with her Piko Piko hammer.



Drew her with a sledge hammer.

2. Aforementioned loving Speaking/Turntable combo.




God that art is ugly and the actual content of the writing ain't much better.

The vertical shaft with rotating blocks that have an enormous pinchbox coupled with how easy it is to fall right back into that shaft, mainly.

There's nothing fun about that part and from what I saw it's unavoidable, and it's annoying when I'm taking turns with some friends and the flow just gets completely hosed up because anyone without a ton of platformer experience keeps dying over and over

You can completely skip that section, you know the part just before where you go down a long ramp? at the bottom when it curves up if you jump at just the right time you can use the momentum to get right up to what child me has always called the 'suitcases' (floating platforms that move left and right)

That part is hella frustrating but also iconic, as a kid I got that part so rote that I routinely did it without ever touching the rising water. I also lost it when I saw someone stream it and find that there is a bonus ring at the bottom, I would have never ever found it.

It sucks on your first play-through but can be completely circumvented by taking the upper path.
