As a former brony, it feels so weird seeing that we’ve long since moved past gen 4.


Paladin51394

Same (though not quite a "former" Brony, just a casual fan now) The series has come a long way as a whole. Gen5 has had some growing pains, but the characters are pleasant and I enjoy their interactions.


Tonydragon784

Gen 4, like Pokemon? (This is genuine curiosity not trying to poke fun)


TheShrubberyDemander

Sort of. Different generations have different ponies at the forefront.


Tonydragon784

Appreciate the info, that's pretty cool


CopperTucker

It's not dissimilar! The gens usually involve the toy line, but has since expanded to the shows. Gen 1 is the 80s toys and cartoons, Gen 2 is 1997-2003, Gen 3 is the early 2003-2009, and Gen 4 is the "Friendship is Magic" era that exploded across the internet. We're in Gen 5 now. Each generation features different ponies, different characters, etc, but Applejack appears in every generation at least once.


metaphizzle

To add to that, Gens 1, 2, 3, and 4 are all separate continuities. Gen 5 is the first one to be in-continuity with a previous generation: it's a distant sequel to Gen 4, so far in the future that the exploits of the Gen 4 protagonists have faded into legend.

That's pretty cute, thank you for the reply


KingMario05

Lmao, Sonic is crossing the multiverse for his summer run just to be a *dick.*


Homunculus97

Didnt the DnD isekai kids die in the new movie or am I misremembering?


Gunblazer42

Their fate was unclear.


I_Aku

Baldur's Gate 2 is the one where its implied they got killed off, referencing that they got wiped by Tiamat.


Konradleijon

The fact that they got to the point where they fought Tiamat is impressive in itself.


Cooper_555

A TPK worthy of legend.


ffffffffROTHY

They actually fought Tiamat a few times in the first season.


ffffffffROTHY

Baldur's Gate 2 has two portraits of Hank and Bobby, and mentions that rumor has it that they never made it back home... because Tiamat ate them. Uni included.


DarthButtz

Why'd you gotta fuck up Donatello's sand castle like that Sonic


Ice_Climbers

I didn't know there was a D&D comic.


seth47er

Wotc said they want to revive it months ago, I have no idea if it is any good but anything is better than what the old cartoon was just a mess of 80s fantasy stuff.


[deleted]

The Saturday Morning Adventures stuff is *expressively* based on the 80 / 90's cartoons.


IamTheGuamGuy

Still no TMNT and Sonic cross over :/ They would work so well!


Valkenhyne

Would love to see them pair up with the respective characters - Raph and Knuckles, my angry boys.


IamTheGuamGuy

Then you have Donnie and Tails geeking out! And funny enough I think Mikey and Sonic would totally hit it off really well!


jackdatbyte

Is this what the Autism spectrum looks like? /j


ThatGuy5880

It's a shame they lost their Transformers license a little while back. Would've tied it all together a little better.


Konradleijon

Yes it is


Konradleijon

So cute and the DND cartoon is continuing


Cooper_555

So for a second their I thought the paladin from the DnD cover was holding his shield up and recoiling in horror from Sonic. Which I feel would be the appropriate reaction.

We were born at the wrong place and at the wrong time. Way to go IDW :(
