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.

      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.

        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.

    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.

      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.

    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).

    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.

          Frick no.

          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.

    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.
