Merlina was a cool baddie.

Yeah, I remember not liking Black Knight gameplay wise, but being pretty fond of Merlina conceptually. She's just so different from the kinds of villains Sonic usually faces.

Things that need to happen one day.

1. Eggman says Snoo PING AS usual I see (the emphasis on the caps.

2. Keith Silverstein saying Find the Computer Room (or at least a gag where Vector ends up in a computer room).

On a side note, I still think Amy has the best potential for a high quality spin off game. Colab with Inti Creates -> Mega Man Zero style game play (every bit as balls to the wall Nintendo Hard to boot) -> make Metal Sonic into a 3 phase boss fight to capture lightning twice with a tribute to the absolutely AMAZING Omega fight. This time with the phase 2 Inti Creates wanted to do but were restricted by hardware limitations.

[up][up] They had a Megadeth guitar player and vocals by All Ends. That's literally quite metal.

EDIT:

Goes over how Shadow's gameplay was worked on in Project 06, but places an emphasis I agree on on how the combat-focus can work in a Sonic game. Basically, rewarding pulling combos and quick efficiency.

Or, the series is based on rewarding efficient gameplay, and that had a speed-based flavouring, and the speed as spectacle focus is why the boost games don't click at much to me.

So, there's another guest singer hired to do another ED song for Sonic Frontiers. It's none other than NateWantsToBattle!

I saw a leaked cutscene

     implications 

Amy sees a past event, where two lovers try to embrace during a War attack. They resemble Chaos 0.

This suggest something about Chaos. But what?

Level with me: the spoilers in the last page. Are they legit spoilers or just fake spoilers made for laughs?

Also, not only is there a longer version of "I'm Here", but there's another song called "One Way Dream", sung by Nathan "natewantstobattle" Sharp, aka the guy behind this piece of high-octane hot-blooded audio heaven. grin

New Frontiers trailer just dropped:

I assume this is their launch trailer.

Huh if there are possibly two ending themes I'm wondering we might be looking at a normal ending and a true ending situation.

I'm reading some leaks.

Here are some games referenced.

    References in Big's encyclopedia 
Team Sonic Racing is canon, as Dodonpa is mentioned.

GUN is also mentioned.

The Ancients predate the Black Arms and the Babylonians.

Eggman likewise wonders what pronoums Sage prefers, she or it.

Maria is mentioned. "Why is she so special?! 'M RIGHT HERE!"

I like the contrast in how Sonic Frontiers marks the series going back to being inspired by shounen, but since the shounen it uses as inspiration now is from a very distinct era than the shounen they used to be inspired by it still looks completely different.

Big's Encyclopedia (responding to):

if my guess about the Chaos Emeralds originating from the Ancients is true, then they must also predate the Gaia Manuscripts, which were made "some tens of thousands of years ago" and directly mentioned how to use the Chaos Emeralds to heal the planet

Leaks are gonna roll fast and hard for the next few days then.

Brace for impact, and maybe avoid youtube. It'll be a nuclear wasteland.

HNNNGH.

So many spoiler-blocks and I don't want to risk the possibility that they might be joke spoilers.

I almost wonder if we should have a thread made explicitly for Sonic Frontiers spoilers.

You could just…. not click on the spoilers they’re there for a reason

[up] Yeah, that's a fine idea. tongue

EDIT: Just to clarify, not trying to be condescending, the response was supposed to be me going "yeah, I should just tough it out like everyone else."

I honestly think that people should either put spoilers in a folder or make a separate thread so that those that want to avoid spoilers don’t have to “tough it out”.

Just my two cents.

AAAAUUUUGGGHHHH!!!!
