Give it a few years, and we'll get the early 2000s nostalgia projects.

It's pretty sad to see the Archie Comics go. It was a nice redemption story to see them stop being horrible evil garbage and go back to being a great video game adaptation with a love and appreciation for what made the source material good.

Agreed. They were one of the first comic books I started reading as a little kid, starting around issue #3. I do remember all of the goofy one-off issues, until after issue 25 when it started to get "super serious". I also stopped reading them around issue 75, but I'm glad the series was around, since it got me into reading in general.

Been thinking about Sonic today. I wonder, will Sonic Mania and Sonic Forces both be good? I swear, getting two sonic games in one year feels like a 'Monkey's Paw' kind of wish.

Sonic is 15, so he'd have to sneak some crappy beer from a gas station or something like that. So, I'd say Sonic drinks Bud Light Lime.

Eh, I still don't buy it. Eggman only cares about one person: Eggman.

Other times I like to think Robotnik is incredibly woke. His doctorate is actually in intersectional gender studies with a minor in social justice. He builds in red and black to show solidarity to antifa and Marx. Which, come to thing of it, is also why he has the moustache.

If a Sonic game has more text than Start Game, the Options menu, and maybe "& KNUCKLES", they already hosed up.

Fixed that for you.

freedom planet is a really good video game but it is not a Sonic game and does not play anything like one and that is more or less the precise reason I like it more than any given 2d sonic game.

I recommend it if you would like to play a momentum based platformer where the combat isn't incredibly basic and the bosses aren't forgettable. I do not recommend it if you want Sonic But Indie, because it is not that.

also the ken penders comparison is moronic and we're not reading the same script, the story's bad but for basically totally different reasons to why penders is.

Ken Penders - Bad

Freedom Planet's Gameplay, Aesthetic, Music, etc. - Good

Freedom Planet's Story - Oddly out of place for a goofy Megadrive-esque platformer.

Maybe I should give freedom Planet a 2nd chance with the story turned off, but the story and characters were so bad that it made me want to drink bleach so I quit playing it

If you go into it expecting a megadrive platformer, I think you'll like it once you find a character you gel with. The rabbit-girl-thing I found annoying, and disliked how not-girl-sonic couldn't hurt people with her regular jump. So go with Chun-Li-Dragon-Girl?

Neera is a panda, but she is not playable in the first game. She's only playable in the second game and the second game isn't out yet. I assume "Chun-Li girl" is Carol because of her rapid-kicking special being kinda reminiscent, Neera fights by stabbing poo poo with pointy sticks, there ain't no kicking with her.

Yup! When I thought of Carol, I immediately thought about her spinning bird kick attack.

Sorry for mixing up the characters. I've got Mania on the mind. But Freedom Planet is a good and fun game, with an Anime as gently caress storyline.

anime was right posted:

its hard to say because mania has two enormous quality of life improvements (widescreen and 60fps) that S3&K didnt have and they make the basic parts of the game feel soooo much better

I'd love for some remasters of the classic sonic games for home consoles.
