[@tjlnintendo]

Steve Spud I agree. In the 2010s, colors was decently fun, generation was amazing, lost world wiiu was ok, 3DS was... eh, boom wiiu was 💩, the 3DS boom games were harmless but meh, Mania was great, Forces was mediocre, and TeamRacing was underwhelming. So out of the 10 games, maybe like 4 was really great, others were meh to bad.

[@Lugbzurg]

I'll take Shadow the Hedgehog and Sonic '06 over Colors any day.

[@matti.8465]

I think the person that pitched Shadow World assumed Shadow was some kind of Bizarro Sonic from a dark reality. It could have been reworked into them exploring the Black Arms world tho. That sounds cool.

[@sparktwochristopher7240]

Strange thing is, SA2's original idea was that Shadow and Rouge came from another dimension.

[@tailsprowerfan2729]

sonic who are you? shadow im you only a little more bizarro

[@LonelySpaceDetective]

The funny thing is that reworked idea probably wouldn't have panned out either. IIRC, Black Doom was one of the very few or even the only non-Penders and non-Chronicles characters that the Archie comics weren't allowed to use after SEGA started caring about the comics, so I imagine they want people to forget that the game Shadow the Hedgehog happened.

We still did see Seaside Hill a lot even if it was mostly in spin-offs like the Sega racing games and one of the Mario & Sonic Olympic games, and of course Sonic Dash and Generations.

[@symphomaniac]

@@doom3926 Probably because using Seaside Hill is basically like using Green Hill except they don't have to pay Nakamura for the Green Hill theme

[@sggeneral4902]

Seaside hill was basically modern Sonic’s green hill zone in the mid 2000’s

[@GBlastMan]

i dont think Climax knew that it was Seaside Hill knowing how they made a pitch for a game that had Shadow coming from a "Shadow world" and not even knowing that Shadow was created on the same universe sonic is. So i think they just went and checked some of the most popular games sonic had at that time, and for the look of the textures they went and prehaps asked for Sonic Heroes resources being how popualr Sonic Heroes was and knowing that this was a PSP game and kinda was pitched before Sonic Rivals was out, so they thought that it was Green Hill because every sonic game almost starts at a beach like area and kinda all look the same.

[@gustavoclares9703]

@@sggeneral4902 You mean from the adventure days, right? Modern Green Hill would be Windy Hill.

[@lamarfll]

To add onto the Sister Sonic info, we likely DO have a design of how she would have looked. An old German SEGA documentary video was posted online at one point, in it we see sketches of characters that originated from a very old Sonic manga that had came out back then, one of them was Sonic's little sister from said manga. The thing to note, Amy and Charmy also originated from this manga, and aren't game original characters, so while there's no proof, it does strongly suggest to me they were planning to take more characters from that manga and make them official game characters at one point. kzbin.info/www/bejne/onTcmqBnqtSGoLs&t=261 The video in question.

[@mr.cobbweb1624]

I think the Dark Age mostly counts mainline games and occasionaly brings up more sidegames to fortify it's existance. Truth is there are a mix of good,decent,meh and bad games throughout the entire era of modern Sonic with the only difference being the amount of good games declining and more decent/meh games appearing like Team Sonic Racing, Sonic Forces, Lost World and the 3DS Sonic Boom games. The decline of Sonic's quality in general seems to be an example of Sonic Team only learning about their mistakes temporarily to then forget about them and repeat the same process. With how Sonic Frontiers is shapping up there is a genuine reason to be worried about the game's quality. I personaly think it will end up being decent but that's just wishful thinking.
