So,everytime i see fight in Miiverse stage with Sonic,there's always messages saying that he sucks,can i ask,when this hate started?
 
It's when the game franchise started going downhill which in my opinion, was when they changed the voices. When they changed the voices, they changed their personalities. They also started changing the gameplay style too much. I'm a big Sonic fan, but I haven't been fond of the recent games from Sonic Free Riders and up. Now Sonic is viewed too much as a meme rather than the iconic gaming figure he used to be. It only keeps getting worse because SEGA lost what made them great and they keep producing content people don't like. I would really love to see the Sonic games series be saved if possible.
 
sonic is kind of hated in the same level as little mac because they are very easy to pickup and spam attacks by unskilled noobs. I do have so much respect for players who play these characters decently

Yeah, SEGA isn't doing too hot right now. People are also writing/drawing hate messages on Miiverse because of what Bahamut said too. People can spam the side roll a lot and it just gets annoying to the point where you're tired of seeing of it.

Yep,worse is when people who spam spin dash and insults u through his name,like "GTFO" or "TIERWHORE"

I personally find this hate to be unnecessary.... Yes, he can be a spammy trash character, but that's only if you play him that way. I must admit I've seen a fair share of spammy Sonic players in For Glory, but there ARE a COUPLE decent ones... I myself think I play him pretty decently... I manage to win 50% of the time using Sonic without using his side B more than three times a match :)


Also, it should be noted that Sega really needs to badger Nintendo about adding OTHER Sonic Franchise characters in (Sonic, NOT Sega characters) as DLC. I'm talking about Amy, Tails, Shadow, Knuckles, Rouge, etc. Any of those would be fine. The fact that he's still so underly represented hurts Sega badly, but if they release more of those characters beside him I feel like some of the hate would be taken off him and redeem him a little. :)

Worse,is this:
Back in 2008 with SSBB:
"Sonic is just shiat!"
Now:
"I want the sonic of SSBB"
Worse is when idiots criticize people who main sonic

Omg, that especially. I found that especially annoying when people say that >.>
 
The problem is that even the best Sonic players (StaticManny and Mocha come to mind, but there's others) spam. A lot. Like their B button shouldn't even be functioning after a set. There aren't many (if any) good Sonic players who don't play spammy, that's just how he is.
 
It's probably because of how spammy he looks. Before I had a chance to play him I thought is side b, down b and neutral b were the same move, so I got really mad. His down b and side b are practically the same though anyway.

This sadly... The problem with Sonic is that you can try to play him decently, but he has this gravitational force that makes anyone who plays him spam at least a little bit. It's the gravitational force of spamminess and there's no way of getting out of it if you play as him, unless you want to lose a lot with him :(
 
Here's the thing. Sonic used to be great. Due to competition with Nintendo in the late 90's they really stepped it up to compete with competition. However, sega just slowly began to just not care. They started releasing spin-off games, and rushed games. Thus, making sonic, a laughing stock. However, there are times where sega decides to actually care for their beloved mascot, and releases a nice game (example: sonic colors) The blue blurr has potential to be amazing, but sega just seems to rush their games and stopped caring for them years ago.

Like Sonic Boom.... Sonic Boom sucks... :/
 
IMO
The sonic franchise had a great start and was a huge success with games screening with Sonic the Hedgehod 1, 2, and triple trouble. Really good games. Then after a few small games came Sonic Advanced, a trilogy I believe. It was for the gameboy and was heaps of fun. Then there was the Sonic Adventure series which I really loved, but caused mass controversy due to the graphics and story plot. I actually loved it, well number 1 (xd) and 2 (battle). Technically, unfortunately, Sonic '06 was the 3rd edition to Sonic Adventure. That was probably the worst game ever made, well actually it trails behind Sonic Colors and Sonic Boom. Oh ya another good one was Sonic Riders, but sonic and the secret rings was pretty bad too.

So basically sega is dragging sonic out.
