Cancelled my limited edition statue preordered as I didn't have the money for it as I feared it was out spring... Now it's August and I could have gone for it. So annoyed with myself
Why the fuck is that trailer at 30fps??
Whoever's responsible for it should be fired immediately. What a disgrace.
Why does it need to be 16-bit-style, though? Why can't they keep the exact same art style, animations, gameplay, levels etc. but with a HD (or even 4K) image?

I still think Forces looks okay, except for some questionable level design for GH and some odd physics. Those things didn't really stop me from loving Generations, so I guess I'm still pretty thrilled about Forces.Sonic cycle is still fully intact.
Atleast one of the games must reach a similar quality to the Genesis classics for the cycle to be broken.
Mania is going to be the one to do it. And then we plunge right back in with Sonic Farces.
Yeah, Tyson was in charge of this, and Mariel Cartwright (@Kinucakes) and Anthony Holden (@nthonyholden) were assistant animators.
Jon Kim (@personasama), another Lab Zero animator, also worked on the editing.
The animation parts are at a lower framerate so it'd look jank if the video was 60fps
Bringing back the Sonic CD animation/character style just furthers how amazing this game is turning out to be.
It can't be stated enough. This is the best, most iconic version of Sonic; the version Sega should be promoting. Not the edgy, talking, slender, human-interacting, story bloated Sonic of recent times.
No.
This is the silent, cool, adorable Sonic. The Sonic that has a timeless "Mickey Mouse" quality to him. I wasn't the least bit surprised to see a YouTube comment where someone says, "Awe! They look adorable!" That's because this style just works. It has mass appeal.
By the way, the revamped Starddust Speedway Good Future looks great!
Because I want 16 bit

Can't wait to see you all end up making a Sonic game in like 5/10 years.
Cause they wanted to?Why does it need to be 16-bit-style, though? Why can't they keep the exact same art style, animations, gameplay, levels etc. but with a HD (or even 4K) image?
Oh wow, sorry to hear that.We've seriously considered making a Sonic prototype and just putting it in front of Sega to see what happens, because they were talking to us about pitching another game at one point.
Then Sonic Boom happened, and Sega wanted nothing to do with American-developed games, and all pitch plans were canceled.

I get the feeling there's too much pride in the way of this. Sonic Team has been pushing the "You just can't please everyone!" angle for years now, that the Sonic fan base has fractured over the various styles of gameplay the team has experimented with, yet companies like Nintendo have no problem managing the numerous variations of Mario, for example.Bringing back the Sonic CD animation/character style just furthers how amazing this game is turning out to be.

Is the Switch version confirmed for the same day as the Xbox/PS4 release?

Damn. I guess that means after this, it's Sonic Team only for Sonic titles.
Agreed. Lets hope their family never fucking eats again!!!Why the fuck is that trailer at 30fps??

Sonic Forces should have focused entirely on the modern elements and create-your-own-character stuff, Mania makes the Classic Sonic gameplay completely redundant. It's not too surprising though that Sonic Team feels like their only option is to rehash the only style of gameplay that anyone seemed to like recently.
Anyway it goes without saying that I am ridiculously fucking stoked for this, oh my god. Could Taxman and Stealth and the crew hit it further out of the park than this? Oh ye gods.
Agreed. Lets hope their family never fucking eats again!!!
So, Hyper Potions is the new Anamanaguchi or what?
Apparently things have changed! Would be nice to see y'all give it another go. (Indivisible backer here, so I'm happy with whatever direction you go in, of course.)

Sonic Mania is made almost entirely by people from the Sonic fandom who Get It at a level that Sega hasn't in decades. People make fun of the Sonic fandom a lot, but there are some ridiculously talented people in the fandom who have a lot of love and care for this franchise, despite Sega's best efforts to run it into the ground.
I'm more convinced than ever that Sega should take the franchise away from Sonic Team and Sega of Japan, and put it entirely in the hands of a new team like the one assembled for Mania. Imagine what the Mania team, given a Sonic Forces-level budget and partnering with a bigger studio, could fucking do.
Iizuka has to go. He has shown, repeatedly, over the course of decades, that he has no idea what to do with the franchise. He couldn't even make a sequel to NiGHTS - his own baby - that didn't fuck it up.

Why is there no Sonic CD on that elevator? :/
