I don't even like Dizzy its just not very funny to have your idenity used as an excuse to attack you as a racist and a pedophile apparently, especially on an american forum talking about a japanese videogame series.

Like yeah sorry about the british empire guys, my bad. I won't do it again.

Sorry I was tricked into thinking this was a cool place to talk about sonic related stuff with interesting people by all the good posters recently, I am the fool for being upset when someone said something lovely out of nowhere. Damned to defend an egg i don't even particularly like because i think its lovely to call something blanket racist when its about as objectionable as the game Spelunky is.

Great job I'll gently caress off now, i hope you're happy.

This is all really loving weird, and not in a fun quirky lol goons kinda of way, more in a 'wow what depressingly horrible nasty people' kind of way.

It is shameful because seemingly their favorite mascot platformer is not Sonic the Hedgehog.

how can some people spend quite literally 13 years on this website and not tell when someone is talking poo poo in the most exaggerated and outreageous manner about the population of the uk by proxy of a middling but technically impressive platformer from the 80s, and that it is facetious and absolutely ridiculous with no basis on reality. like i set my bar real low and goons still cant clear it

Fun Shoe

quote:

The main protagonist and player character for the series is the eponymous Dizzy, an anthropomorphic egg with big eyes, a smiley face, boxing gloves and minimal identifying features. Named for the way he somersaults and rolls around the screen, Dizzy's design was kept deliberately simple. The idea was that this allows players to project themselves onto the character, and to imagine a character beyond what could be achieved by computer graphics of the time
It turns out you can imagine Dizzy is actually Sonic the Hedgehog

He stopped putting animals in robots. Eggman is reformed, maybe the true hero of the series.

I don’t think that’s ever been explained honestly (though he does go back to using animals to power his robots in Lost World).

In Sonic Advance 3 they’re powered by rings but in most games from Heroes onward nothing comes out of the robots when they’re destroyed.

We don't need to have that dialogue because it's obvious, trivial, and has already been had a thousand times.

In Sonic 2006 they appear to be powered by chaos drives that you automatically collect, which are similar to the ones used by GUN in SA2.

Shockingly, people don't really like randomly being called racist paedophiles because of their nationality.

This is a really obvious concept that anyone who's got the most basic social skills understands. like I set my bar real low and goons still cant clear it.
