As a Sonic fan, I do not understand this fandom at all. As I grow older I start to understand why that IGN employee said "Sonic was never good." Yeah, sure, Forces is hot garbage, but that doesn't suddenly make '06 good. It feels like whatever a Sonic fan grew up with as a kid becomes a 10/10 masterpiece, and the fandom seems to be generally averse to change (is it because of neurodivergence?). And I don't understand the fans who defend the Meta Era either. Like, you can criticize both '06 and Forces, why only hate one game? It doesn't make you superior to '06 glazers in any way. At least Sonic haters aren't biased to this or that time period. Not like I think they're right but I at least get where they're coming from, their complaints make perfect sense on the surface level. I do sometimes agree with JP purists and classic elitists but they also tend to complain about miniscule shit like character designs or Western canon/characterization or gameplay changes.

I've never had even a hint of interest in the 3D Sonic games. The 2D ones are all right but I've always thought they have a fundamental problem with encouraging the player to go really fast but making it impossible without really heavy rote memorization. The original Super Mario Bros. is a more fun speedy game in all honesty because the scrolling is slow enough and the stages and hazards are simple enough that you have time to react while you're running through them.

I think they're nice, people should give 'em a chance, though they're definitely hit-or-miss. Also, Sonic Team can't port for shit (not even 2D Sonic anymore) so playing original console releases or with mods is kind of required.

Fuck '06 though, nobody's gonna convince me this game is good. Same for Forces.
>I've always thought they have a fundamental problem with encouraging the player to go really fast but making it impossible without really heavy rote memorization.
Well, that's why Mania is 16:9. That's also the reason why Sonic Advance 2 was hated (along with the bottomless pits) so I understand your complaint. But then again, I freaking love shit like Super Meat Boy and I Wanna Be the Guy so maybe my taste is already skewed.
>>12395
I do think Sonic is cool though. That probably makes me sound like a 9yo kid who gets bullied at school but I'll die on this hill.

Yeah. Found some Reddit comments (yeah…):



User A:
You don't know if he is fair because there is no competition on the housing market, so he might be overcharging a lot. He has monopoly and the "free" loan just ensure that he can charge outrageous prices. He know what he is doing.


User B:
A Nintendo switch in-game costs just under 30,000 bells correct? (This is a rough estimate I don't have the numbers in front of me - it's around there).

IRL they cost $300.

A small house and the first upgrade to make it bigger costs 246,000 bells in total after the 2 upgrades. So for a decent home, you pay about 8.2x the cost of a switch in bells.

I recently saw someone post about the ABOMELOK0408 game that was from the dark web around 2024, I don't know if people are still talking about it or looking for it; If someone previously downloaded that game is unknown. But the person that made the iceberg was some reddit user, I assume they are seeking information about it, what I know about ABOMELOK0408 is that it was made with Godot Engine and it was made by a Snapchat user that distributed it! It contains a lot of viruses, The creator gives her Snapchat name and QR code if you search carefully, She does this for people to ask her questions about it if they have any. She admitted to making the game again you can find that in search results, I highlighted ABOMELOK0408 in yellow, one reddit user asked what it was about and the creator of the iceberg said there's not a lot of information; I know this game was distributed on the TOR network but I didn't bother to download it.

Share you best outcome from playing the game!

This was my best so far. My strategy was to first get the military under control, then do land reform and set up the economy, hold an election with as much legitimacy as possible, and finally to build up stuff like medicine, education, and infrastructure. It went alright for the most part, but the IMF is going to kill the country later, much like what happened in Yugoslavia.

So what did you do? What worked for you?

De-extincting species might be useful to repair biomes. However i don't see the reason to do this if you don't have an ecological niche to put said species into. I mean could mammoths survive in the wild ? If you're just going to bring a few back as a zoo-attraction, you're not really bringing back the species, you just create a few of these animals and when the novelty wears off the zoo will 'discontinue the mammoth'.

For years and years the debate has raged over whether video games qualify as art, and as ridiculous as that debate is there's one undeniable aspect of it: video games have ideological content.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TycfDgg4acY

For that reason this thread should be used to approach games from a political standpoint with their political content in mind. The only thing to keep in mind here is that YOU CANNOT TALK ABOUT GAMERGATE.

Here's a big list of video games with left wing content to help discussion get going:

the exact same applies to music and television as well. doesnt make those any less "art".
many of the most popular video games are shit art, made for shit reasons, but again the exact same applies to music and television. youre either a massive pseud or havent engaged with the art form outside of fifa or cod.
