Sonic being hyper self aware to the point where it makes fun of itself in its own shows, marketing, fan interviews and even its own Twitter account, was the worst thing that ever happened to the series.

It actually did help to elevate the series for just a bit when it really had no further to fall, but then the movie actually did great and they stopped doing it.
Arin Hanson being hired sure helped elevate the series.
It was only good when they were a few jokes here and there, but then it just became a way to compensate for the franchise's pitfalls without actually fixing anything, to the point Sega fell into the memes and thought Sonic was actually better now and then Forces came out and gave them a wake up call. You notice after that game came out the metashit was slowly starting to phase out.
Ian is the most Meta writer Sonic has ever had.
t. autist that can't take a joke not even about him
unless you are very specifically represented in the chris-chan boom episode, frick off. if you are, do some self-reflection
I can take a joke when it's not constant and uneeded.
Sure you can, sport. 😉
Tell me how hilarious you find MCU quips.
That's not moving the goal posts. You didn't even give an argument back, moron. Now answer me. How hilarious do you find MCU quips?
>whataboutism
>not goalpost moving
sure, then you're whatabouting
you sure showed me by... some measure, i'm sure
>Another human being is genuinely putting forth effort into have an actual conversation with me

What do people get out of trolling? Genuinely asking. What neurodivergence makes being a disingenous little shitstain weasel a pleasurable experience?

The only reason why it's bad is because it encourages giga-spergs who can't handle banter to make 10 schizo threads a day.
Sonic Boom was actually funny though, Eggman was kino as always and everyone here loved Sticks
>everyone here loved Sticks
I didn’t. I despise LOLSORANDUMXD humor, which is all Sticks is. Her non sequitrs are just disguised as conspiracy theories.
>disguised as conspiracy theories
>disguised
goddamn son
I also hated Sticks and I hated her extremely shitty annoying voice and I hate the implications that thye are trying to make Sticks canon to the main Sega universe of Sonic games. I hate that shitty character so much. I don't play Sonic games for a screaming c**t with a BAD voice to rant about politics. And I also take resentment that they thought a shitty female character is red pilled and wants to research the government in a universe where there is NO government. Sonic Boom has no civilization. It's just a barren island with no intelligent life anywhere. But whatever Sticks is blatantly annoying and out of place and I hate the idea that she may show up even more. The only thing shittier than Sticks is her legion of furry LOSERS who jerk off to her and keep spamming pretending she's popular. They are worse than Amy Rose jerking off losers.
How is she lol random when her shtick is clearly defined?
She's not random humor, she's a conspiracy theorist. Her humor and character traits are always consistent
holy incel batman
It’s just the Geoff Johns Aquaman approach. I agree it’s awful.
Literally the only time Sonic was good.
I agree, but Sonic Boom gets a pass due to circumstance.
Nah, part of what led to Sonic Fatigue in that era was that they kept making bad game after bad game but acting like everything was fine. Aaron's run on the official Twitter and Boom TV taking the piss out of things helped save the public face of things.
>Aaron's run on the official Twitter and Boom TV taking the piss out of things helped save the public face of things.
How? It didn't help them make any better games afterwards. They take the piss out of themselves but without making any effort to improve. If anything, it became a shield so they didn't even have to try.
mfw someone tells a joke (i suddenly want to cry because humor scares and confuses me because of my absolutely crippling asperger's)
I'll just wait until you have an actual argument to bring.
>this is funny
>nuh-uh
great "argument" you're giving me to argue with
Read
>you're using whataboutism
>t-troll!
i repeat, great "argument"
Arguing with you would be like arguing with an ape. Very shallow and with zero substance. You're not giving me arguments, you're throwing out fallacy names that have nothing to do with what you're talking about.
>still no argument
Okay, champ, here's your medal for "winning".;)
You and people like you don't give a shit about fricking anything, not even an argument to the contrary. Get fricked you worthless limp homosexual.
>i'm not owned! i'm not owned!!!!
Yes. Now get the frick out of this thread and stop being moronic. Unless you actually have a real argument to give this time.
>no u
Looks like someone ran out of steam already.
Better taking the piss out of themselves and admit they’re not improving than pretending they’re improving while being shit as always
The entire reason why they're mocking the past to begin with is because they want to make it look like they're improving. But they never do, even with it.
It was fine once. But yeah it's a joke that gets old very fast.
No, actually it was a perfect fit.
Still is.
I honestly hate Sonic Boom because of the self aware bullshit. The problem with being self aware when the franchise is like Sonic is.....the humor becomes self deprecating. So these characters start insulting the entire franchise and customers. Basically the writers are using the characters to admit that the franchise, Sonic, is terrible. And I for one don't like wasting my time on shit like that. Shit that admits they are shit and that insults the customer. This is also why I refused to watch garbage like Teen Titans Go (don't get me started on the Thundercats Teen Titans Go crossover episode about those shitty writers insulting loyal fans).
>hating teen titans go and sonic boom

It did this meta commentary the minority of the time, actually watch the show and not just clips on from social media.
More like the best. It sucked when it took itself seriously because it never did anything good with it. It sucked when they joked about how great the brand was when their games where subpar. Self depreciation is only natural in a franchise filled with failures.
I’ll take Boom over those embarrassing IDW comics.
Sonic Frontiers is one of the most successful 3D Sonic games, beating everything out of the Meta Era. So no, it wasn't "the best".
Colors was the best tone for the games, too.
Ah, a Zeti enjoyer. Wonderful.
Lost Worlds doesn't have a tone anything like Colors.
That's the game were Tails and Sonic have a fight just for dramas sake.
Lost World is written by the same writers as Colors and has the same cartoony low-stakes tone as Colors. Colors has forced drama too when Sonic pushes Tails into an escape pod despite Eggman being the most pathetic and non-threatening he has ever been, he’s basically Neo Cortex in Colors. Lost World uses the same limited cast as Colors too. Lost World was the natural conclusion to Color’s style of writing.
And nothing has changed. Sonic Frontiers is shit. And I hate how people pretend it's oh so good but for it to be good you need to pay for multiple waves of DLC. Sonic fans are stupid for worshiping this game development style.
Frontiers has free dlc so I don’t know what you are b***hing about.
Sage is a way better new character than the shit that got introduced in the Pontaff and Graf era like Wisps and the Deadly Six.
Frick no.
By FAR
What's a Dark Agegay doing on Cinemaphile anyway.
In Sonic Boom, Sticks goes commando.
Amy Rose wears dark pink bike shorts under her skirt.
No, I don't have pics.
As oppose to the autistic tryhard serious story telling of the 2000s that killed itself thanks to Sonic 06?
Sonic Prime has his friends criticizing his entire personality.
Sonic Frontiers has them hinting at going separate ways after this adventure.
It's over for Sonic.
Sonic himself has never been my favorite character in the franchise, don't hate him but also don't love him.
Sonic is such a piss poor franchise. Yakuza cover up.
At least he wasnt a absolute sad b***h like in Sonic Prime.
But it resulted in the scales evening out and now we have a decent mix of serious/self-aware. I'd say it's the *best* thing to happen to the modern franchise, even if it did get annoying for a brief period.
