Now I'm really curious what Super Eggman would be like. The closest we got was in the live action sequel, but that wasn't really a Super form.

Robotnik got too much naked moments in that cartoon. Sexiest fatman alive, am I right?

Sometimes I have this funny image of Eggman being invited to Smash but they accidentally mail it to AoSTH!Robotnik and we just have him and Sonic being confused by each other.

So, a petition was started for changing corporate management over at SEGA for the Sonic the Hedgehog games. How do you guys feel about this?

I'm not sure how much that would actually help.

I agree. Unless they actually contacted SEGA themselves about this petition, I don't really see this petition going anywhere.

Except when they do.

That said, not sure how this would help anyway in this context. This isn't simply "calling attention to a product", which petitions are great at proving there's enough interest to justify it. But something that a petition itself really wouldn't have enough weight to really "fix" the situation. In cases like this, it's often actual feedback towards the games that might help more, and not even then. Switching who is in charge is a very big internal job as is.

Also, if they were to make petitions like this, they would have to get in close with SEGA or even work with SEGA to get anything done. A big corporation like SEGA wouldn't be interested in these small petitions and as Irene pointed out, probably the most effective way for SEGA to change how they operate would be if they get some feedback from the audience, which they seem to be doing right now with Sonic Frontiers.

Yeah. Petitions work quite often, it's just that there's cases where they can't have meaningful impact because they're the wrong avenue to go.

This isn't like asking to get a game re-release. In those cases, petitions are very effective because they provide legitimate interest. Of course, "100 signatures" isn't enough anyway. You need far more proof that it'd be a strong seller. But it's a good start anyway. It also can depend which game at times.

But you get the idea.

I mean even if such a petition could work, between a well liked comic run, two successful live action movies, an upcoming animated series, and a new game that's doing solidly well? For all of Sega's mistakes its not completely mishandling the franchise at the moment.

[up] This too.

If I remember right, Frontiers was taking constructive feedback anyway? Which is a great start.

Hope this feedback translates into

  • DLC with more cyberspace levels (with more variety in aesthetics preferably)
  • games for Tails, Knus and Amy
  • and more obviously, better handling and commitment to the open zone formula.

This is not the type of formula Sonic Team needs to commit to, disregarding how the world is actually designed, this type of format presents the same exact problem the Boost Gameplay did.

There are plenty of ideas they can take from Sonic Frontiers and expand on, but the size of the world is not one of them.

It absolutely is. I wouldn't mind another open-world Sonic title with this sort of tone.

Somehow Sonic Team beat DC/WB Games to making a Flash video game.

They could barely handle it in Frontiers.

I agree that Sonic is in a much better place now than before. Like mentioned, Sonic's already got two successful movies, a successful comic book series and an upcoming animated TV series. So, having a petition to change the management over SEGA is kind of unwarranted at the moment.

[up][up]According to the amount of automation, railroading, and...2D sections in an Open World game.

Also the fact that literally all the platforming in the world is just floating platforms and rails that occasionally connect to a piece of floating ruins.

According to whom doesn't mean "what details are wrong". They mean specifically who is having this opinion besides yourself.

Remember, a lot of opinions are just by a single person and can often be mistaken for a general consensus. The user legit doesn't know which one you mean. Could you clear that up, please?

(I'm not going to ask for tons of links from other websites as proof either. I just want to know what you meant as well)
