Sonic 2013 Hopes/Speculation Thread

I don't really consider those QTEs, as they are essentially the same as this:



Skip to 2:10.

The game gives you so much time to press one button it's really not that big of a deal.

In the first stages where that big clock tower is you'll have 3 or 4 in a row that will result in a bottomless pit. There's many more of these...

He's talking about Sonic Generations, not unleashed. Generations (and Colors) even take it a step further and have the option for warning signs to let you know when a pit is bottomless instead of one that'll just drop you to a lower path:



EDIT: Oh wait, I got mixed up, he IS talking about Unleashed.

There are two types of QTEs in unleashed. The ones that will drop you to a bottomless pit are super slow and give you a lot of time, and their ramp color is different. The game makes it obvious which ones you can and can't fail.

There are even QTEs later in the game, like in Empire City, where failing a QTE over a bottomless pit and then air-boosting at the last second will take you to a hidden path.

This was all fixed in Colors and Generations, though.

I actually was talking about Unleashed.

Yeah, I thought he was responding to Miru for a sec until I re-read his post quote.

I'd really like classic sonic to return one more time and have his own game, I liked his gameplay in generations and would like to see a full game with that gameplay. That's probably hoping for the impossible.

I didn't know people still played this modern day BS that is suppose to be Sonic. I was curious about Sonic Generations but for some odd reason it never appears on CL nor has it appeared at my favorite liquidator. Sega needs to get back to what made Sonic so great which was his exploits on the Genesis save for Sonic Spinball. HARDCORE 2D platforming.

sonic generations is only about $15-$20 used for ps3 and 360, i've seen a few copies on ebay for that price.

If you don't like the QTE's then just ignore them. I don't think there are any that you have to do that are life or death situations.

Oh, I wish I could, I wish I could. Little update: I managed to beat the first werehog level; it's tediously long, but I beat it (including the cheap QTE mini-boss at the end).

Now, what to do I get for doing that? A QTE mini-game with a boss who can kill you in less than 2 hits if you don't get the button presses right!

Sorry for the little rant, but I hate this version of the game for it. QTE is bull.

The Quick Time Events for bosses didn't bother me at all. They are stupidly slow and easy to pull off. Honestly if you can put up with Resident Evil 4 or Shenmue, then Sonic Unleashed is a push over by comparison.

sonic
tails
doctor robotnik

nobody else

Welp, they released a trailer or two for the newest Sonic game. Even though the villains look very cartoonish, they still SOUND threatening. "Lie down and die!"

It's a WiiU exclusive called Sonic Lost World.

[Soulis]

Things Sega should do to revive Sonic:

-Stop trying to make him look "edgy". Its embarrassing.
-Stop focusing in complex stories. Its more embarrassing.
-Kill every friend except Tails and Knuckles and deny they ever existed. Seriously, kill'em all. Slow like. Agonizing.
-Fire all the voice actors. And when i say fire, i mean set them on fire. Sonic should NEVER speak again, ever.
-Whoever comes up with ideas like holding a sword and the werehog.. throw him out of the window. The guy is an idiot.
-The physics programmers. They suck. And they get paid. Homebrew Sonic games have superior physics.
-Hey Sega... hire that Pelikan13 guy. And make him the head of Sonic Team. ASAP.

Restore Eggman/Robotnik boss battles; I'm tired of the monster of the week taking he's place. We need more battles with him using inventive contraptions.

[old man]

Have you guys seen the newer Mickey Mouse cartoons?



That's the kind of thing I would like to see happen with sonic. A step back to what made him fun and original to begin with.
