- Sonic can fish in three lakes, but can fish up ocean creatures like octopi, sharks, and sunfish.
- They're simulations in Cyber Space, not realistic representations of lakes.
- Given that the Chaos Emeralds are effectively Dragon Balls in all but name in regards to what they can do or manifest, why doesn't Sonic simply try to use their power to bring his friends out of cyberspace the first time he gathered them, after he fought Giganto, before flying off to the next island?
- It's likely that the Emeralds outside of Cyber Space won't have much of an effect on entities trapped within Cyber Space. Remember, the Emeralds are from the Ancients' world, I think it's likely that they'd ensure that someone with malicious intent couldn't use them to cause unspeakable damage to their culture and being. Besides, if the Emeralds could easily warp people out of Cyber Space...then why would Eggman not just have Sage round up the Emeralds herself and use them to get him out instead of just sitting around and watching Sonic do all the work?
- They’re similar in many ways, but differ in a very fundamental way. The Dragon balls summon a dragon to grant a wish, the Chaos Emeralds grant unlimited power, but you can’t just do anything with it. Sonic doesn’t know a thing and Cyberspace, so he can’t really do anything to help his friends even with the emeralds power behind him.
- So in regards to the boss theme Undefeatable, the consensus seems to be that the lyrics are sung from the perspective of Super Sonic. However, there are three verses that stand out to me in particular:
-Welcome to the mind of a different kind, where we've been growing slowly
-Running from the past is a losing game, it never brings you glory
-I'm hanging on to the other side
I've tried to hazard some guesses as to what they mean, and what I've come up with so far is that the first verse is about Sonic's memories being implemented into Cyber Space aka 'Mind of a different kind', and the Ancients technology is acknowledging Sonic growing in power over the course of his adventures, hence 'growing slowly.'
I suspect the second verse is foreshadowing into the Ancients sealing away The End into Cyberspace eons ago. "Running from the past is a losing game", is them prolonging the inevitable return of their old foe, which won't solve the problem in the long run,"It never brings you glory."
The third verse is what stumps me, because I don't know who's perspective it comes from. "Hanging on to the other side" could refer how the pilots of the Titans are basically Ancient ghosts refusing to move on to the afterlife in case The End comes back. But it could also refer to Sonic's struggle to resist the cyber corruption and be trapped within Cyber Space.
Does anyone have a different interpretation or am I right on the money? I'd love another perspective on this.
- Why do you think it’s talking about Super Sonic? As the fridge brilliance section proposes, The song could also be referring to Amy as its “as wistful and optimistic as metalcore gets”.
- So what does that one symbol from the trailers mean anyway? It appeared whenever the Koco passed on or when Sage was rebooted, but it was never explained. Does it mean death or rebirth?
- This was later explained in the Final Horizon update, where Amy can talk to Sage about it. Neither of them know what it is, but Sage assumes it is a symbol of a god that the Ancients worship. She admires their faith, but also notes that the symbol appears above the Koco, so maybe their god is actually out there somewhere.
