He's the Saul Goodman of the Sonic games

Question: did they ever model Infinite's unmasked face in that origin flashback and we just weren't shown it for narrative/thematic reasons, or was it never modeled and this is a work around like if Eggman took off his glasses but he was facing away from the viewer

Stone could have been a double agent before GUN was presumably destroyed in Forces, perhaps as a bit of payback for Adventure 2.

Of course, with minimal personal attachment as compared to the films, Eggman would presumably have killed him, as well.

Infinite has a real face, and hilariously if you slow down the cutscene enough you can even briefly see it

Is there anything about the franchise that makes you feel unduly old?

For me, it's seeing news about Sonic and Friends. Content-wise it's a cute kids' cartoon with some educational content (iirc), but I objected to it because it's on TikTok, which could be unhealthy to young children's attention spans, appeal to lazy parents, and risk exposing young audiences to the seedier side of the platform.

But after thinking about it some more, I realized that's the exact same New Media Are Evil argument Moral Guardians have used against the entirety of pop culture, including Sonic and everything else I enjoy, since...basically ever. I'm basically worrying about something Concerned Parents worried about back when I was a kid, even though it's not that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things. Growing Up Sucks.

So in regards to the Sonic Frontiers Final Horizon DLC, I wonder if they'll keep the original fight with THE END and add a second phase afterwards or if the entire fight will be reworked to involve the new Super Sonic transformation from start to finish?

When it comes to music, the Sonic franchise is consistently good in that area.

I actually dislike that track. It sounds like it's trying to be a bridge between the Jackson and demo S3 tracks... which is basically just making the Jackson tracks worse. New Jack Swing is great and doesn't need to be diluted!

The fan made online continuation of the Archie comics did a finale comic for Underground and got an interview with Ian Flynn where he managed to remember the basic plot for the cancelled Archie version of the ending.

Good thing it's a comic, I'd never want to entertain the idea of a Jaleel White impression when he was past puberty.

I like his voice from Sonic Underground and no doubt people would not even try to imitate it.

[up]Not sure where you're getting that from, it seemed to me more like Sage time-traveled, or a factor she had discarded suddenly came into play.

The previous ending being what either happened in the previous timeline or what she just expected to happen.

Guys, come on. It's obvious.

It's the extra story, meaning the last ending didn't count, just like in Adventure 2 and Shadow's game.

Knuckles: "Sonic handled four islands of this mess. I'm not going down to just one."

Tails' line also indicates that he's been dipping in and out of Cyberspace, which probably wouldn't happen during the story, but Knuckles' line definitely can only take place after the story.
