I just wanted to let you know in the comments how I feel about the set-up in this video since you wanted us to weigh in: *It seems different.* 😛 Also, that shirt is incredible and I need it now.

[@alainachimanatic8756]

Three good things about Sonic Boom: 1) The TV show is AWESOME! Seriously, the humor is top notch. 2) The comics are equally amazing. I swear that sometimes the comics are more meta than the show. 3) I love all of the characters, especially Team Sonic. They get along so well and you can tell the actors had a riot recording their lines.

[@EnderElectrics]

I love the new setup! I do miss the switch between live action and voice over though. It felt a little same-y only having the live action stuff. Still, great video as always!

[@Cinko420]

QOTD: If there's one thing that both 3DS games did consistently well, I'd say it's the music. I mean Seaside Beach 1 from Shattered Crystal is actually an underrated bop, Robotic Facility 2 is awesome, Shadow Canyon 1 is badass, Worm Tunnel would fit in a Sonic Riders game, Gothic Castle from Fire and Ice is one of the best songs in Boom PERIOD, Fire and Ice also used the unused theme from Sonic The Fighters called Sunset Town at one point but I forgot the new name, etc. Though Shattered Crystal is a bit of a mixed bag in that area too. They took some of the generic Wii U themes and put them in with the good themes. But when that ost is good, it's GOOD. I legitimately hope that one day, someone remakes the first two Boom games to make them actually GOOD. Maybe they could remake the Wii U ported themes and add boss fights. Honestly the Boom games (Fire and Ice especially) got robbed. Imagine if Rise of Lyric didn't get crunched by SEGA or Nintendo. Imagine if Shartered (yes, that's intentional) Crystal was actually good. I'm willing to bet that the 3DS games would be the next Sonic Rush for people. While Rise of Lyric would've gotten Sonic out of his slump temporarily. If only...

I just honestly have one complaint about the new format, and it's that you tend to cover up a lot of the screen which could make it pretty hard to tell what you're talking about if you ever need to refer to something and you're actually standing in the way of it, but that's just my take, maybe you've already noticed this in editing. Good video overall though, keep it up!

[@Garrulous64]

I think most of the time the footage is just there to fill up space, and when I'm directing to specific things i'm trying to stand on the sidelines but I can definitely work with that more.

[@whoeverest_the_whateverest]

QOTD: the game the at the end became Rise of Lyric wasn't initially meant to be part of Sonic Boom series, for a decent part of it's development cycle. And Shattered Crystal exists in the first place only because "c'mon, there must be 3DS version";they just quickly outsourced this problem to some other studio, though at first Sega asked it to be made by the same studio as the home console one - which actually was physically impossible in the conditions BRB was in, they barely had time to cram game that was being developed only for powerful PCs and unreleased-at-the-time PS4 and XBox1 into Wii U. So basically it means that actually ALL of the content that was MEANT in the first place to be Sonic Boom content is actually good or at least not bad

I never played sonic boom fire and ice but I do feel like in some ways it redeemed the sonic boom series. I played sonic boom shattered crystal (aka shattered anuss to me) along time ago, I like how the characters played differently but what I DIDN'T LIKE is that you were forced to complete it 95%. I think if you just played the stages with sonic you can go through them in 1 or 2 minutes but if you WANTED to explore you had to go through the stages for 20 min.
