Is it wrong that I actually think a dark and gritty reboot of Sonic would be cool?

Is it wrong that I actually think a dark and gritty reboot of Sonic would be cool?

Yes

Yes.

It depends, would shadow be even darker and gritter than he is now?

Surely this is shitposting or trolling.

They ALREADY tried it with the Shadow game, and it was a fucking msierable mess.
And by the way that Tails looks like someone wearing a fursuit.

Sonic SatAM fucker. That was dark and gritty. Sega doesn't make games like that, they're too busy pandering to Autism and ADHD because it makes them rich.

GOTTA GO FAST!

The less dark and edgy shit and more light hearted and fun the better.
Ken Penders should burn in hell for single handedly attracting autism to this game series.

It could work, but success is very unlikely, as previous attempts have shown.

I think it'd be easier to have a dark animated series than an actual game, but even that is unrealistic.

Someone needs to put Sonic on the DMC cover now.

Yes it is wrong.

Or rather I mean it could work if they made the game very good, the following would definitely appear - no doubt about that. They would also get a huge following if they made a literal furfag porn game though, so that means little

Still go fuck yourself with those pseudo-realistic graphics/designs in your OP. Current ones are fine.

They already tried it with Shadow the Hedgehog and 06, it flat-out doesn't work for this kind of series.

Better question: do you trust Sega to not fuck it up?

I think they just need another chance

Better question is, why do people want a game with a blue hedgehog that eats chili hot dogs and his wacky friends to be grim dark and edgy SO BAD.
Who are these people?

You know what really, REALLY would be cool?

A Sonic game with GOOD gameplay, GOOD camera work and GOOD controls.

Besides, why all has to be dark and gritty?

Sonic games aren't that good at all.
It's a character obsession you have, like pony people.

They are insecure people who feel that the games that they enjoy(Sonic, Pokemon, Mario) are for children, but they(14-25+ year olds) can't be seen playing children's games. If the games become dark and edgy then they must(pro tip they won't) be mature as well. They are the people who want Pokemon games to deal with slavery, animal cruelty, have gore, drugs that you can use on yourself as well as on Pokemon and people who have sex with Pokemon.They are the I only play mature games for mature people such as myself crowd.

Nothing wrong with being 12 years old, OP.
Good thing it ends eventually

I can see something that's only a few shades darker like in the Sonic film. In fact, I think that would be a much better direction for the series. But a full RIP AND TEAR and QUE TE JODAN reboot would be fucking retarded.

penders-era comics fans

...

Can't we just have a game with good gameplay?

It can be as edgy as you want it to be, just don't fuck up the gameplay

I don't know, I think it works for some settings/story-lines but not for others. I'm looking at the Sailormoon and Digimon crowds, and the heavier introductions of "more mature" elements to fit their targeted demographics as time went on weren't really seen as bad things by anyone.

I just want a game with gameplay similar to the OVAs.

Okay lets start brainstorming ideas to make this ultra edgy sonic game.

Can Holla Forums can anything else?

Maybe not "wrong", per se, but "autistic?" Absolutely.

Check em.

Let me fix this for you, counter sage.

moar plz

Somebody summon the forbidden one and cleanse this cancer from the board.

OP here.

I'm not trolling. I actually think it could work as long as it was done right. As long as the gameplay is great, it being all badass and cool by being grimdark would be just icing on the cake.

I just thought it might be a good idea since a lot of Sonic fans are grown up now and some of them feel isolated by the way the new games are marketed.

It could be like the Michael Bay Transformers movies. I know some people think those movies suck, but you have to admit they are entertaining.

Can we just stop having sonic games?

Please?

The character hasn't had a good game in like 20 years. It's time to let it go.

Those pics look absolutely good awful.


I'm sure you'll get a lot of upvoats for that kind of post there.

I hate to break it to you, but "entertaining" is not how I'd describe a cringefest.

I think a gritty sonic game would only work if they did it VERY well, or if the game just didn't take itself seriously.
Games like the latter are getting really old lately though.

They need to figure out how to make good games again, first, and how to write Sonic to make him not such a cliche fuck.

Here's the thing OP:
Even if it was perfect, the question of why was it necessary would still loom unanswered.

There already was a dark and gritty sonic reboot.

It was called "Sonic and the Black Knight".
