So in short, this game isn’t meant for me. But I understand that there absolutely are large portions of the fanbase, now at least, who would 100% agree with this lesson that SEGA has learned. The one-two punch of Sonic 4 and Sonic Mania pretty much ensured the end of that idea. Personally, I miss when Sonic was just Sonic, and Sonic could be in whatever style of game he wanted to be. I mean, as far as SEGA’s track record goes for understanding what people want, they’ve certainly been a lot farther from the mark before. To appeal to both audiences, we should continue to use both characters as often as possible.” And, okay. “Modern Sonic doesn’t appeal to Classic Sonic fans. But it’s looking like they took away something slightly different. When Mania was successful, I would have expected it to reinforce that same lesson. But still, after Sonic 4, they left behind the notion of a fully 2D Sonic game behind altogether until Mania all those years later. I would have expected SEGA to learn the lesson, “don’t mix 3D and 2D or people will get mad when you can’t replicate the physics,” but here we are with Frontiers still failing to shake away Modern Sonic in 2D. I wasn’t excited by the announcement of Sonic 4, but then I went and bought it day 1 anyways. I rolled my eyes at the phrase, “Classic-style 3D sidescroller.” But then I got to the trailer, and the moment Sonic phased into 3D, I was struck by the thought of, “wow, he’s so expressive and well animated.”Īs I’ve said many times around this site, I have a complicated history with 2D Sonic, and the whole “Classic Sonic” thing over the last decade has just made it even weirder. It’s a rollercoaster that includes elements of “you can’t be serious” and “wow, that actually looks really good.” I wish I could have been surprised by the trailer outright, but unfortunately, I saw the headline and news post first, and the trailer second. My gut reaction here is very hard to put into words. Except…they might actually be listening to the people they’re trying to appease this time? Let’s take a closer look at this.

That’s about all I got for now, so stay tuned for more video gaming news coming to you at the speed of sound. We’ll just have to wait and see, but the new series will no doubt be a form of advertising for the Sonic film releasing next year.Īnyways, what do you guys think about all this? Let me know what you think in the comments below. Modern Sonic? Or maybe this next series is how they’ll continue/end Sonic Boom. It’s still unknown what this new Sonic animation could be if it’s more of Mania Adventures. Which makes MipJunior the only likely and and possible place it could be announced. Now that’s not to say they could announce a 3rd season after MipJunior, but any announcement after that is unlikely. Or it’s still getting a 3rd season and there just looking for a better way to distribute it. ![]() What will happen to Sonic Boom if there is a new Sonic animation series? Well it’s either cancelled if we don’t get anything at next months MipJunior and Sega is in favor of short YouTube Sonic series. ![]() ![]() Before it was even announced.īut with this news brings us back to another Sonic series called Sonic Boom with it’s still to be announced season 3.
