Dark Super Sonic wasn't purple...nor were his eyes missing.

He wasn't a different color at all, he just had a really extreme dark blue aura shrouding him.

Ok, lets try this again...

Dark Super Sonic wasn't purple, he was literally just a black Super Sonic with a dark blue aura.

Sega hiring for a game tied to Sonic and the Olympics 2024. While it is possible it is the next Mario a Sonic game, it could just be Sonic at the Olympics alone as he had games with just him without Mario and co.

The games without Mario were for phone, tho. And Mario is only going to appear in his home console, so Sonic had to go solo in the phone version.

If the new Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games game is announced during February's Nintendo Direct this year, I'm gonna be ecstatic.

Oh so next months' pairing is between Amy and a choice of either Metal Sonic or Blaze.

I voted for Metal, but I'll deal with Blaze winning.

Oof. Both of those sound fun.

Amy having a bit with Metal Sonic sounds like it'd be hilarious, but on the other hand anything that has new Blaze stuff is worth it.

I find it funny how he doesn't think Amy should be an Action Girl because he thinks it devalues her, but knows nobody will ever agree with him about it lol.

We've played as Amy in over a dozen games at this point, some of them with her as a leading character with important roles in the plot. No, the boat sailed on keeping her an unpowered civilian Sonic and pals only occasionally interact with.

Amy is gonna be the "Action Girl" by default due to being the only frequently recurring female in a series like this.

Plus Cream also exists to provide the alternative to that.

Pariah also does more shots at Flynn, saying the guys at Prime should take over the series over him.

Pariah is seeimgly unaware Flynn is the consultant of both Prime and Rise of the Wisps, that he likes.

Anyway, I enjoy his perspective. He appearently is gonna talk about IDW one day, but I caught a flak un his argument: he has t read IDW beyond the first issues, but he disliked them to them being "fight for the sake of fighting"

I don't doubt he Will dislike what comes after that, but it does dissapoint me a bit. He aint entirely wrong, tho. But him saying Shadow was rational...nope. I don't agree. He was calmer than his modern counterpart, but I would never call Shadow rational, but stubborn.

I'll wait the Sonic X perspective, as he praised the characterization of Sonic there.

Cream is exactly why that character doesn't work. Sega aren't interested in anyone who can't fight.

What do we mean by "action girl"? I don't think I've ever heard anyone be against the general idea of Amy, like, doing things. She's always went out and did action-y things in basically all her appearances except her original one in CD. I've seen a lot of people be against what they see as recent writers trying to turn her into Sally, having her act more level-headed and devoted to stopping Eggman or whatever, and taking on almost-leadership roles. As opposed to Amy in the 90s and 00s where she was more on the side following Sonic's lead, with her main motivation being wanting Sonic's dick.

In this case, its Amy being as capable of a hero as Sonic and Co as opposed to being just a "normal" girl who just happens to get caught up in his nonsense and gets in over her head.

Talking over what Amy should or shouldn't do feels like Hell, almost reminds me of feminist chats on Facebook and how most of the folks complaining about this female character (don't remember which) were dudes.

I couldn't even take an agreement over Amy in Frontiers because some folks now think Amy "is fixed" in the Japanese version of Frontiers.

I just think "it is what it is" and move on.

Its definitely a minefield of a discussion.

Reminds me of the reactions Peach is getting from the Mario movie.

Or from the smart people who dislike seeing Peach in any kind of action role?

I find Pariah's takes to ne interesting even if I generally disagree with him on just about everything. I'm not surprised he dislikes Ian Flynn's work seemingly on principle.

He's right about Sonic Riders, though. Damn shame what happened to that series.

The genie is out of the bottle, as far as I'm concerned, with Amy. You can't drop her back to her Sonic CD level of influence at this point. Particularly with SEGA pushing her as the fourth member of the main group in recent years.

Pariah never crossed the "i'm a spiteful blogger with an obsesión" like other Sonic fans, and he calls out the good and the bad unlike them, so he gets My approval Even if we disagree about it.

He has clear a bias towards certain subjects, but its within reasonable bounds most of the time. Usually its limited to shunning any idea that originated outside of Japan.
