[up][up] Unfortunately, no. Bafflingly, it's like the only thing she can't do.

She can usually just jump around any wall-running/climbing segments, though. Her triple jump is busted.

Update: found a video of the fight, only watched the beginning but it's clearly supposed to be easy to target it, once you figure it out. IDK if it's that I'm playing on Switch, but my game must be bugged.

[up] It could be that you're not "supposed" to target it until later in the fight when it starts healing, but I'm not sure.

The video was able to destroy it before Super Sonic even got upgraded to Cyber Super Sonic. Me, I can't hit it no matter how long the fight goes on.

That's such a weird limitation.

Surprisingly the dash pads still work, which was never the case before.

Haven't played Frontiers myself, but can't you still edit the physics for the most part?

Does the new story disable that option everywhere for everyone?

Just beat KNIGHT. Genuinely the hardest of the three Titans I've fought so far.

On Rhea Island now. Love the music, but... where is everything?

Having finished it, it’s clearly exposition island. Kind of a waste of good music. I guess it’s a nice break from how massive Ares and Chaos Island were. …Though, I didn’t expect Ouranos Island to ALSO take cues from Kronos. Devs clearly ran out of time giving the last 2 their own identity.

I feel they dropped the ball with Ares Island's name. Ares is not a titan, he is the grandson of titans, a whole different generation.

Amy Tarot cards.

How strange. I'm sure when Evan wrote her using the cards in the campfire arc, she wouldnt know the fanbase would think it was overused or that Frontiers make it part of Amy gameplay.

The spinning cards is fun tho

I like the person who went "My only takeaway from this is Knuckles loving grapes."

It is hilarious that after years of being background details they showed up in so much media at once. I remember praising Sonic Battle for its deep cut "My cards told me I'd find you here!" reference eons ago.

Now we just need Sonic-themed tarot cards for the actual tarot sets and we're good to go!

The thing that baffles me is people going "it's weird how much it is being pushed recently" or "why is her hammer not being shown more" when it is self evident that they want this to be a more prominent part of her persona going forward, so it's what is being focused on as opposed to HAMMER ADVENTURE #355.

People are acting like her hammer is just straight up gone now. It's not, it's just not getting focus because they want to try the new thing.

In the comics she still has the hammer even if she uses tarot as part of the narrative in a couple of issues, in superstars she still has the hammer even if she is shown reading tarot in the animated sequences, and even if ONE GAME has cards be her primary attack, the hammer is still there.

This fandom is insufferable.

I mean, this same type of reaction did happen with Chili Dogs a while back...

It's not very surprising, I do think that the lack of Hammer attacks in general is a bit lame...

And certain things she does use the cards for were things she did with the Hammer in the past.

Kind of getting back to Frontiers for a sec, I hope that when Sonic Team makes the next Sonic the Hedgehog game, they look at the criticisms for the gameplays and take that as just improving on the game mechanics instead of doing something completely different in the next game. It seems like every time there are criticisms on the Sonic games, they seem to take that as doing something completely different in the next game, instead of improving on the mechanics that were established in the previous game. I think that if they spent more time on improving whatever game mechanics they introduced to the franchise instead of switching gears constantly in the next game, then it would make things easier for them to make the game mechanics better in future Sonic games because they would be very experienced with the mechanics they tried to improve on.

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

I just finished Frontiers myself - while there's a lot i was frustrated with (the less said about that final trial the better) and some lackluster conveyance issues for the final boss, that finale was a treat. I even managed to get it perfectly timed for the final battle.

From what I've seen of the new Cyberspace levels in DLC 3, due to the changes made from the addition of the spindash...they seem to suffer from the same problems people had with the fan game Sonic GT.

And that's kind of sad, because I really like the design of most of them. Cyberspace's general aesthetic is much better utilized here than in any of the base game's levels.

But the problem is that you just spindash jump over a lot of the actual level design, which is neat occasionally...but not all the time.

[up] Yeah, I thunk that's the big reason why the Spin Dash wasn't really utilized much in 3D after Sonic Adventure 2.

I just had a thought: what if Surge became a Willing Channeler of The End?

It'd probably go something like this accidental Frontiers foreshadowing from Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020. XD

Would The End even care about Surge?

Anyway, new month, new poll!

Sonic's Japanese Twitter account has a new isekai ogiri poll.

The focus is on Knuckles and we gotta choose if his partner will be Sonic, Rouge, or Infinite. We got until October 5th!

(Come to think of it, we haven't seen Sonic in these isekai adventures yet, have we?)
