11:36 Honestly...I don't understand all this obsession the fanbase has with the idea of a Classic Shadow. The idea as a whole is pointless, since Shadow doesn't really gel well with the Classic series, not only that but the whole appeal of Classic Sonic's existence was that he represented the early era of Sonic. Classic Shadow is, for lack of a better word, cheap fanfiction. And this is coming from someone who LOVES Shadow, which is precisely why I don't like the idea to begin with. I don't think creating a Classic Shadow does any service to the character, specially when for years we knew him as we do today. Would it feel natural to use a Time Travel plot to create a Classic version of Shadow when the appeal of Gens originally was bringing back already existing concepts people loved from the Classic Era? It's kinda like the idea of an ''Adventure Sonic'', it doesn't really have any real purpose to exist other than shallow fanservice and it makes you wonder if it's really worth it to go all the trouble.

At first I was confused as to why they're using Final Rush remix since Shadow's level in SA2 is Final Chase when they did the level comparison trailer but now looking back at it now and this recent Doom Powers trailer, calling it just Space Colony Ark as a general location instead of a specific level of that location is the best route Sonic Team can go with.

[@kieronix4071]

Kishimoto explained on Twitter that he didn't want to use 2D in Frontiers but 2D sections are easier to develop so they use it to pad out the game.

[@BritBox777]

For the pop-in discussion, the cause of the issue is Sonic Team doesn't create/purchase LOD meshes or textures for a lot of their stuff. That's when you're far away from something and instead of rendering it at full resolution, the game swaps it for a low poly version that looks terrible up close but fine further away. Sonic games don't tend to have this and go from zero to full res. The issue? Your game will crash if you don't bring the render distance suuuuuper small. That's how Frontiers happened.

[@Slimeonian]

I have a question for that then, what about the Titans in Frontiers? They have a render distance that spans the entire island. You can see them from literally anywhere. I get that they’re gigantic character models and the kinda need to have a MASSIVE render distance, but how could they not make the draw distance for other enemies or structures at least twice as much as it currently is. Even if it’s only on newer consoles and PC

[@whiten4635]

​@@Slimeonian my only guess is that the titans are render sorta differently compared to stages. Although I will say I feel like titans are still a different case in itself. For thr most part the titans are absent for majority of the island with wyvern being the only exception and even than he usually despawn when your super duper far and respawn when your at a certain distance from him

[@BritBox777]

@@Slimeonian I can't give an exact answer for the Titans but I'd guess they just set it to render at any distance, and it's just one model, so it doesn't break anything. But they can't do that for everything. For proof, if you edit your Frontiers files and se tthe render distance to anything beyond like, 3x I think it was? The entire engine crashes.

My theory (that I know the story will definitely not go hard enough for, but wtv lemme dream) is that Chaos Island is in the game to tie up the lore of the Ancients and their bringing the chaos emeralds to earth + the extinct Echidna Clans of Angel Island and their knowledge of chaos energy and the chaos/master emeralds + Professor Gerald researching all of that with the goal of finding the answer to finally make his Project Shadow a reality = That’s why Shadow is there.

While my "if this isn't in the game I'll have questions" boss choices would be Mephiles and Sonic (and maybe Infinite), my wild card pick for a boss Shadow could fight against would be King Arthur or the Dark Queen from Sonic and the Black Knight. I think the Storybook games are close enough to standard Sonic games to count, it comes from the same "dark age" as Shadow's game and 06, and even if Lancelot doesn't count as Shadow appearing that's not a problem as seen in Chaos Island.

Pop in will never be the valid critique that it's made to be.

Being honest, I’m kind of accepting to the fact they’re leaving the base gens portion of Sonic Generations untouched from a narrative perspective. Sure I’d far rather Sonic talk about deep cuts from his past games like Emerl or Chip but for me that’d just alienate the original experience by changing it and I’d far rather Sonic mellows out in the next game and brings up past experiences rather than trying to edit his personality in past games with the trademark Ian Flynn “hey you remember X Y and Z?” writing method from Frontiers when it comes to callbacks to previous events in the franchise. I also think Shadow’s story in the game being so rich in narrative contrasted to Sonic’s “keep moving, reminisce later” attitude during Gens story gives a far better contrast in their personalities and how they handle similar situations. If they had to change the narrative at all it’d be nice to have Modern Sonic bring up callbacks from his adventures to Classic Sonic in the end cutscene before they return to their original timeline though.

Ok so as far as stages, they were originally fan voted choices so stages like Spagonia didn’t make it because that’s just not what fans voted for. But I really hope that the SXSG adds more stages to base Generations, maybe even add stuff used in the 3DS Generations. I really don’t want to see a Classic Shadow. I don’t understand why so many people want it when in a few years they’re gonna end up hating it and saying it that it messed up the franchise. So I purpose instead of a short, pot belly’d colorless eyes version of Shadow I think it would be much cooler to have him face off against an alternate timeline version of himself from one of the bad endings of his own solo game as compromise. It keeps the time travel stuff in without completely changing Shadows backstory and meddling with the timeline more than what’s already been tampered with.

Sonic and shadow tend to be more like earlier versions of Ken and ryu. Where Capcom essentially gave you a reskinned character. Sonic adventure 2 did try to give shadow more enemies as well as sonic 06. Giving Ken a different play style from ryu is what made Ken so memorable. Same with shadow.

17:42 What's the name of this remix of isolated island? I hear it a lot but haven't been able to find it

[@KOREDEAli]

15:00 it is chemical plant recoloured to look like final fortress

[@boltthelunarian1405]

14:52 I'm not entirely sure if that location where Shadow fought Metal Overlord is even Chemical Plant. Someone said that it could probably be Final Fortress or something. Correct me if I'm wrong about it.

Maybe ther is a fanwork exploring shadows grief?

[@GreyKingZero]

So informative! That special edition is ridiculous. I like the stuff, but 200 is a no.

[@PointingouttheObvious]

The fight with metal sonic doesn’t seem to be chemical plant.

I hope these powers can be used whenever and not just Wisp replacements

I hope my boy Silver gets a bit more love in this game though I highly doubt it.

[@devinsauls9137]

Metal Overlord and OMEGA?! 👀

The only thing I’m wondering is that what are they gonna do for Sonic we haven’t seen any Sonic gameplay like is the gameplay gonna be the same as generation or will it also be New and different
