Were they right about Sonic? Was the speed shit always just a gimmick?

Not really; however, Sonic is very overrated and over-remembered, because of nostalgia. Not even just nostalgia, the console wars worked like normal wars in installing pathological tribal loyalty in people. So, just like how people who could care less about politics and wouldn't hurt a fly will talk about
>le go back in time and murder baby Hitler
without any care about how dangerous time travel murder would be, or even just evil of murdering a child, Sonic fans are eternally justified to worship, because of how deeply they placed the Genesis in their identity. Since Mario is, more rationally, remembered as the GOAT, Sonic fans feel justified in claiming that their decent platform series is the second best of all time at worst, and beating out Mario for the Fuhrership of the Universe at best.

Just watch them play it and you'll understand why they don't like it. They're braindead.

no, you're not supossed to just hold right. they expect you to learn the layout of the levels. The ring mechanic was made to help make this easier.
This was when games still had an arcade mentality. This was also the era where nintendo would make their games extra hard to extend their lifespan and nobody gives them shit for that.

I just remembered when I argued against killing baby Hitler in a college class and the entire class decided they hated me.

I confused this idiots for being redlettermedia.

When did you realize Rich was actually worse RLM and is the embodiment of amerifat retard?
I'm gonna go ahead and say that I personally think Rich is the worst member of the crew. Even though Beardfat takes things too seriously, he always sounds like he knows what he's talking about and he showed several times that he has technological knowledge and AIDSmoby offers insightful commentary many times. Rich manages to be both an embarassing nerd and seemingly have no real input into the movies they're talking about and is only there because he's Mike's friend. When Mike isn't around to put him down, he acts like an obnoxious prick and the only real value he offers is that he does the grunt work for them (buying merchandise for videos, building props, etc). He's basically their employee and is only in videos because Mike likes him.

Oh and before anyone cries Nintendo shill
To be fair, Ninten-drones do the same thing with even worse stuff like Starfox
>this generic furry shovelware was made by the same guy as Mario; so, Starfox is a great series and deserves infinite sequels forever

>There are people who can't beat a children's platformer game
>There are people so stupid they don't realize they have the ability to roll which helps gain speed

They got tired of being called PreRectum

No

Generations 3DS really isn't that bad. It's not good, but it's not 06-bad.

Calling sonic 1 shit is an easy target.
Articulating it why is still easy, but they couldn't do it.
Broken clock, something something.

So unwilling to admit that multiple games in the series are good. Sad.

Yeah, it really is.

Not really. Like sure, some stuff you would literally need above-average reaction time to avoid, as some obstacles are placed in a way that the time it takes for you to run into them after they come on-screen matches the average human reaction speed, but that's all moot when the shit they were complaining about would've been taken care of by rolling into a ball, i.e. the major mechanic of the game. Besides, saying "Sonic fucks out being about speed" just because you can't hold right the entire time is like being surprised the randomly pressing the jump button won't cross all gaps in Mario.

But most PreRec videos were exactly like this: they're bad at video games so they miss out on a basic mechanic or choose the easiest difficulty, and then they complain that it's unplayable or too easy

The part of the RLM fanbase that likes video games, so (You) and me, are complete shitters.
They stopped enjoying doing the show and streams because of that.

it's redlettermedia. they watch bad movies, riff over them ala MST3K and then talk about what worked and what didn't. known for half in the bag, best of the worst, mr. plinkett

btw lurk moar

>they're astoundingly unfunny
They are. There's a reason they stopped doing the show. Half in the Bag is not much better either.

RLM is garbage. I'm glad Captain Kirk roasted them on Twitter.

what did he say?

He seems to think they're a podcast and made fun of Mike based on his Nerd Crew persona. They made a video about it just the other day, it's a pretty amusing situation.
