General Sonic is Terrible Thread
I could agree. Too bad I think Sonic Lost World is exactly the step we needed, yet the world at large disagrees. Here's the problem with that sentiment Gors. It sounds lazy. Especially in today's gaming world. A lot of objects/materials are now interchangeable and a lot of engines make working and tweaking physics easier than it's ever been. I argue that Sonic Lost World is the 3D Sonic everyone wants but deny, due to one of the basic principles of building Sonic stages that the original 4 games were known for. "Does this play like the first stage?" "How fast can it be done?" Answer those two questions first and you don't replicate the first stage you create stages that built like it but are unique to their environment.

Remeber how big and long it seems to be when you're in Angel Island Zone and then you realize EVERY stage is bigger than before? Scale is a big issue here, and though it is eaiser to make 2D Elements and creating a game in a 2D space we could just be making new 2D Sonic games there's no reason there's no place for both. If Generations showed us anything it's that there's clearly room for both. I don't believe we need a Generations 2 (Though that'd be fun for anotehr 25 year anniversary if SEGA makes it to 50.) but, after playing Sonic Before the Sequel and After the Sequel I think SEGA is just not bothering to diversify their ideas. They could be making 1-2$ Cell Phone Sonic Games like Before and After the Sequel every 4-9 months. Releasing a major Sonic title every 2-4 years.

A Sonic Lost World game with less dumb puzzles the take the point away from Sonic and Sonic with a Run and walk feature that doesn't make you fingers sore (that's my only real complaint about Lost World that Sonic feels good but still not polished to go and start, though I argue the laziness of levels and camera control attest to that.

Why do I think Sonic is the true turning point of 3D Sonic? Have you seen the Sonic CD intro? did you not want to jump on rocks and enemies over hills and walls like Sonic? perptually defying terrain and gravity in some aspects? Yeah? Well then there's you answer. Sonic's whole idea immmorial is about capturining that idea and Sonic Lost World is the only game that has ever come close. Not even Generations Wave Dash no time to go back Modern Sonic can't manupulate his movement to do other things besides go fast like Lost World Sonic can.
