      Another game where you play as Silver alongside Blaze and Sonic, would be a great way to reintroduce a character whose potential was quashed: Eggman Nega. He was first introduced as the arch-nemesis to Blaze, as he came from her dimension. This was soon retconned to where he came from Silver’s future. Frankly, I feel he’d work better as the villain for Blaze AND Silver to fight. Like how Sonic and Tails fights Eggman/Ivo Robotnik. Let’s be real, Silver and Blaze, likely won’t get their own spin-off game. As fun as that sounds, causal gamers don’t know those two as well as Sonic. But Blaze, Silver, and Nega have great potential. New stages and hub worlds based off of Silver and Blaze’s worlds, new boss fights aginst Nega, and Neo Metal. Maybe Nega tricks a future, evil, version of Sage to kill Silver and Blaze, then the rest, after her father is killed at some point in the future? Maybe he dies off screen, seemingly to Sonic. And Nega uses her hate to reshape the past, and destroy Sonic, Blaze, and Silver’s worlds? If Sonic Team wants to go darker, nothing could be worse than an evil, older Sage unleashing the metal virus and cyber corruption to rule a lifeless, cold, metallic future.
      But, I see this more as a comic than game. Any spotlight Blaze or Silver get, I appreciate.

      ​@@AceCardGaming I would love to see an Ifrit boss and nega Mother Wisp bosses in Sonic x Shadow generations. Both are connected to lore that sega refuses to use. Ifrit (sonic rivals 2) can destroy an intirer dimension bathing it in fire (the game comfirms its whole universe, not just a planet). Sonic and Shadow only defeat a heavily weakened ifrit as it isn't fully revived yet (it did eat a bunch of chao and become invincible, though. Plus, he has mind control powers and is just as sentient as chaos even though it wasn't at full power). But they still beat it in base, which is still incredibly impressive. I bring him up because Gerald has notes on ifrit implying Gerald Robotnik somehow got into the dimension that chaosic inferno takes place in. Plus, ifrit seems connected to the chao somehow, and Gerald knows of him, so i hope he is at least in the journal. As for the nega mother wisp, I loved her boss fight. She is a part of the wisps lore (yes, the wisps have lore actually lore, such as the mother wisp creating the wisps and the planets that eggman captured, the ds version of colors going into detail on how negative wisps are made and how it affects their minds, actually giving each wisps their own personalities like Lazer trying to fight the robots and void straight up destroying shit and causing chaos. The mother wisp is kind and motherly but can have a temper. eggman is lucky he got caught in the black hole before she got free. Plus, the wisps actually flow with level design in colors wii and ds. Similar to how the doom powers seem to. Unlike in the lost world or forces. The ds has a better story than the wii version. It has interesting lore, the wisps are fun and the stages are fun. Not to mention, multiple characters have sonic do missions to help free wisps or extra information on what is going on. I have both versions. The wisps are neat and do have lore. I wish sega would actually utilize their lore more). Ifrit and the mother wisp are very interesting and think you should cover them. Plus, the fact that Sonic and Shadow, among other characters, defeated Ifrit in base shows how powerful they are. Also, I think marine the raccoon should return due to her unexplained power, and the complaints about her are already addressed in her character arc and development from sonic rush adventure. Also, phantom king creates the egg revery, which is infinite in space-time, and space and time (yes, there is a difference) in Sonic Mania, and that's just classic super sonic. Also, Chaos drives, artificial chaos, the ark, and G.U.N. are all interesting. I wish sega would use them more, too. Oh, and Emerl and Gemerl should be explored a bit again.

    Ian Flynn has said in a recent Bumble Kast that "Limiter Rings" is SEGA's new term.
    He's not a big fan of the new name change, but he does admit it's easier to say.
    It's actually closer to what Sonic X calls them (it only called them Limiters) and I think it's to further distance mainline Sonic from Archie Sonic.

    • @AceCardGaming

    • @gamemaster2819
      @gamemaster2819 5 месяцев назад +30

      ​​​@@AceCardGaming Here's the gist of it:
      While the rings technically had their first appearance in Adventure 2, their ability didn't debut in any media until Sonic X, which called them Limiters. It's worth noting that they weren't talked about as much in the English dub as the Japanese version
      The ability became canon in 06, but it was completely, show don't tell, so we never actually got a name.
      Archie would continue to use the concept, but gave them the name, Inhibitor Rings (you can understand why Ian would be disappointed he can't use his idea anymore). But for the Game universe, they were only called that in promotional stuff such as a Scholastic Character Guide book, Twitter Takeover, and the Top 10 Shadow Moments. None of which had much involvement from Sega JP. (Also of note, the only time characters in-game talked about them was Mario & Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic games, which only called them gold rings)
      Flash Forward to the present, Shadow 101 comes out and gives them a name that is kind of a mix of the two official titles.

    I think this video completely embodies the joy and hope I've felt this year, and especially the past week after the Sonic 3 movie trailer reveal. Finally, Sega seems to be picking up their game again, making other characters important. Finally we have more of Shadow, who honestly might be the biggest character in the series next to Sonic himself.
    SA2 was going to be their last game, after all. It was a farewell from the Sonic Team. And wouldn't you know it, it was the game that saved them. Because of the amazing and compelling story they gave Shadow. That's why he "dies" in the end. They thought as their last game, it was a fitting end to the beautiful story they made for him. But with the love coming back in the series based around him, they saved him, brought him back. Let him survive like the series did! I loved learning all of this so much, and it's been sad that recent years have been so lacking for him.
    But with Sonic x Shadow Generations and Sonic 3 right around the corner, it feels like they're finally giving him the love he deserves again. I feel like a 12 year old kid again, and it's FANTASTIC.

    I love how they're making Eggman a deeper and more interesting character, humanizing him while still making it clear that he is a very bad, very self-centered person. That's a hard needle to thread, and the current success definitely relies both on Ian Flynn's writing and Mike Pollock's delivery, both of which are absolutely AMAZING. But yes, it's obvious that they're very definitely trying to rerail Shadow's character and give him some depth, and I definitely have more hope these days. I also have a preorder. :D

    Considering GUN murdered his family, it’s no surprise Eggman whipped them off the map after he’d taken over the world finally. Still, part of me hopes we see GUN resurface, I liked how they were a third party in Sonic and Eggman’s rivalry. Really made the conflict felt bigger when more factions were after the Emeralds. On the topic of Shadow, I hope we see him meet Sage, it’d be interesting how his relationship could change with the Doctor. Seeing Maria in the AI.

I know they haven’t been used in games since Sonic 06 I think. But, I would like to see them resurface somehow. Maybe the GUN Commander died off screen, and the organization is down to a small few, while his daughter (revealed in a new game) takes over and calls Team Dark back for deployment after Sage hacks their systems? It’d be interesting to see them come back, but reinvented in some ways. I feel they added a human element, besides Eggman, that was missing. How the rest of the world viewed Sonic and his friends. A third party like GUN getting into the mix if hunting the Emeralds made things interesting. But, I think they were written out with Forces to show how dire the stakes were. But the narrative didn’t make things feel so hopeless with characters like Infinite.

      In a sense, while Rouge is more defined with her relationship with Knuckles, her relationship with Shadow, while important to them both, is secondary, and Omega would be nothing without them and Eggman given Eggman made him Guard Shadow's stasis pod, and Rouge woke both of them up.

      Team Dark were never really friends in the same vein as Sonic and his pals. They're allies, yes, but they're not close friends. Heck, at the end of _Sonic Heroes,_ Rouge leaves Shadow and Omega to go after the Master Emerald.
      In _Sonic Battle,_ Omega isn't even present.
      In _Shadow the Hedgehog,_ Rouge and Omega are never together in the main story.
      In _Sonic Rivals 2,_ Omega is absent once again, and Shadow and Rouge aren't even on the same team!
      _Sonic Free Riders_ has Omega absent yet again, with E-10000B serving his replacement for Team Dark.

    The shadow dark beginnings preview, did give me a bit of hope. But, I'm still not convinced that sonic is finally getting back on track yet. For me, it's going to take more than obscure lore references getting acknowledgement. How they're handled, is all I care about. I don't care for the idw comics. They have cool moments in isolation, but I personally get no value from them. Alot of those stories have very little to say. They just cause me to long for how sonic story telling was handled, back in the 2000s.
    The paramount sonic universe has yet to impress me, since it feels like they're terrified to fully embrace the spirit of the games still. Especially that poor excuse for a knuckles show...I don't expect this to change all of a sudden, when movie 3 releases this year either. The paramount stuff has been successful after all...
    The little sonic visual novel was neat. I liked seeing the cast together, interacting the way they're supposed to. I didn't care much for sonic prime at all...and considering how it ended, it makes you question if it's even worth watching it in the first place. Sonic merch has been a mixed bag for me. I will say that this is the best time to collect sonic stuff though. So, I've been taking advantage of that.
    I don't have much to say about frontiers, since it didn't really leave any sort of real impact on me. That's very telling...😑 all in all, being better than the 2010s isn't enough for me. I really want the sonic franchise to be pushed far beyond its limits. I don't care for surface level superficial stuff. Give me something that'll leave a lasting impact. As proven in the past, sonic can do that for many.

    With the current approach they are taking with the series it's getting hard for me to not get my hopes up, everything just seems to be falling into place recently and I'm really hoping the new game and movie are as good as I know they could be. 🤘

    Damn, this is good. Personally for me, Shadow should be “Sonic Unleashed” truly. A hedgehog who is more like a Punisher with the power of the flash, no mercy to enemies and willing to any horrific act to protect the planet, truly take advantage of the antihero archetype. Still of a hero but with out limits holding him back except for the memory of that person who gave him any purpose for living.

    If Shadow sacrifices his life at the end of Sonic Movie 3 and DOESN'T come back to life, then Sonic Movie 3's version of Shadow could be equally as good as the original version of Shadow from Sonic Adventure 2. In my headcanon, Shadow doesn't come back to life after the end of Sonic Adventure 2.

      @@Goobywoobygoo I completely disagree with you and I never played 06. In your opinion, it's a bad head canon and 06 Shadow is peak Shadow. In my opinion, it's a good head canon and Sonic Adventure 2 Shadow is Peak Shadow.

    I enjoyed the video a lot, but just one thing is Eggman saying shadow and sonic or equals when in reality shadow and sonic have the same speed. Shadow is stronger and smarter with more abilities and his abilities get amplified with chaos emerald which he basically always has even though he doesn’t need it. Shadow has way too much knowledge I mean his debut he literally tricked, eggman Shadow is for the strongest in the main cast and is extremely smart. I would say the smartest but people would take that the wrong way because tails is actually very smart but here’s the thing tales of smile with making machines and computer stuff but Is he smart with reading people fighting etc he’s good with machines, but he doesn’t have the knowledge the wisdom of shadow and knuckles have except shadow has way more wisdom we see this in 06 prime and a little bit of forces, but they just stopped using shadows character probably because the games would be too short since the villain eggman and you know what happens in three endings (spoiler shadow kills egg man I know it’s not canon, but it’s showing what would’ve happened if shadow did that so yeah shadow would kill egg man) also very off topic but Eggman and shadow are the only family members left in that family tree, which is funny also just gonna say shadow never got ruined in the mainline stuff everything that’s canon shadow never got ruined because they never used them generations. Doesn’t even count no more since they’re doing a parallel story so that shadow that sonic beat isn’t even shadow since it’s a parallel story. It’s just something from the past that stayed there. That got brought to the future not the same person. But it was all side content where they ruined this character like boom and IDW and the other side games but mainline he was done extremely good forces surprisingly they never used them because his character would just end the story too quickly. The only way they can implement them now is if they bring Satan back. And his lizard brother. And another character that’s based off of the devil that stole shadows form. I don’t know how to spell his name, but yeah sorry if you read all this was trying to make this too long, but I gotta do what I gotta do
