I just found it weird that you felt the need to say "This opinion isn't worth taking seriously" is all. That kind of sounds like trying to dismiss a subject to me.

If that isn't what you meant to do, then my bad for misinterpreting.

Internet discourse these days makes a LOT of complaints difficult to take seriously, especially when it comes to controversial characters. I don't take back what I said because it's a personal opinion I was entitled to have.

Amy's not controversial, people haven't had any reason to do a back n forth on her for years.

That's the benefit of this new Amy.

Like I said, its just a weird non-sequitur in the middle of a discussion, but fair enough. There's no real discourse going on here though, we're just...talking about the subject, because this is a discussion forum. I don't see the harm in just talking about it, its not like Sega are going to read this topic and just address all of this lol.

Even everything I just said about Amy is more constructive criticism than any personal misgivings I have. I...really don't care one way or the other about her, I just found the specific criticism being discussed amusing is all.

It wasn't about you or what anyone else specifically was talking about with each other, to be clear. The general idea of Amy being bland is what my comment was aimed at.

Eh, she's aight.

EDIT: At least before, I could laugh at her. But (shrug) everyone's gotta be super, hyper competent and cool I guess. I guess given Sonic's target demographic, that's not really a bad thing.

This is why Big is the best character; he gets to be a big, fat loser and revel in it. Everyone should strive to be like Big.

Just because I don't have any strong feelings about it doesn't mean I don't have an opinion about it.

I believe so. Note that my only basis for this is other games' update patterns, so don't hold me to it.

I hope these characters aren't just polygon swaps of Sonic.

I'm curious if the character DLC is essentially a low risk way of testing out new/evolved gameplay for Tails/Knuckles/Amy. It it works, there's a blueprint for the future, it it doesn't its still a novel DLC for most of the fanbase.

Depends how much effort they put into it.

Like ideally, they'd have complete campaigns like Sonic. But...well, ya know how it goes. Cutting corners and whatnot.

Oh, that's absolutely what this is.

Frontiers is already one big experiment. The Sonic experiment worked, so now they're doing the go-ahead to do some experiments for Sonic's friends and see if they can figure out gameplay styles for them too.

I'm all for it. Something had to be the first try. I'm just sad the first try wasn't years ago.

Does anyone have any help or suggestions for me im stuck on the 2nd tower on rhea Island. I'm at the 2nd pulley from the bottom platform and whenever I use the dash pad I just can't make it to the two rails 99% of the time. And then when I do I can't make it to the boost rings at the end of those sets of rails

I am curious about what they are including in the DLC. I hope this is a chance for the developers to improve on the game mechanics from Sonic Frontiers.

I love animation, TV, movies, YOU NAME IT!

If Amy's playable we better get at least some sub-Devil May Cry asskicking gameplay from her. She beat Batman, she's earned it.

They recharge their bubbles under two conditions.

The first is if you take damage from them, and the second is if you stop damaging them for too long.

So the intended interaction is to attack them as much as possible until they're just about to attack, stop, and then continue attacking as soon as they cease to attack.

Fortunately, they have no invincibility due to attacking, so [up]'s suggestion of using Sonic Boom (an attack that fires out projectiles) works as a perfect counter, to the extent that you can jump, start holding it down, and defeat the enemy before you even get to stop.
