Here’s an idea about the escort missions. Certain NPCs may act differently to make the missions harder. For example: - A bigger character would be slower than your character and cannot jump as high - An explorer character may look at every nook and cranny, not all of which are safe - An impatience character would move on ahead and would start a fight with enemies - A business-based character could put you on a time limit - A Chao enthusiast would get you to save all Chao before you can complete the level - A robot hater would get you to defeat every enemy before you can complete the level.

Flicky: choose another species, and you have the same powers as the original species except you have loftier jumps, squeeze through tight spaces, and you can possess robots. Werehog: choose another species, and you have the same powers as the original species, except you can do combos and destroy things.

[@astralnebula2697]

- Mecha: Has hover ability which is short, Spindash does more damage on bigger enemies, Can use wisp powers continuously ( Like Metal) But Has a Super form but Has a cool down (A super Meter is at the bottom left screen underneath the wispon ability meter) It's also A New game Unlockable Race

[@gamingv1nce7]

Oh my....These ideas.....are amazing....^^ I respect you Dylan my man!

[@ArtsyPuppy]

This is really cool so far! I had some ideas for extra missions I thought I’d share (they’re all Resistance related, hope you don’t mind): -A Resistance Commander who is seeking assistance in clearing out an area in the levels, or assistance other Resistance soldiers in the area. They would generally be the Resistance trooper that would give you the least amount of missions. Instead, they would direct you to whoever needs help, as they would act as the leader of a Resistance squad in a hub. Each hub would have a different squad with completely new characters, allowing for more visualization of the regular Resistance foot soldier than what we got in Forces. -A Resistance scout would accompany you and your team while you head to the goal, providing an extra gun. The reasons would vary, but most would involve something about a search for Eggmans remaining army and just general Resistance cleanup. -A scientist from the Resistance might ask the player to collect a certain number of Prototype Shards or any other mystic object and bring it to them for analysis. -A Resistance Saboteur could ask for assistance placing weapons throughout the levels as to stop the assault of any Eggman robots, or placing explosives on Eggman technology (examples include deactivated Death Egg Sentinels, those huge Crab robots, or just generally small Eggman fortifications). -A Resistance Sharpshooter would ask for assistance in clearing out robots in the entire level, acting more or less like a scout, but based on combat instead of reaching the goal. -And the last one I could think of is a Resistance Engineer/Medic. They act similar, but they’re missions have slight variations. They would both act as escort missions, but the Engineer would pick up tools, gears, screws, scrap metal and such on the way to a downed Resistance ship or some other Resistance tech, while the Medic would rush to get to where he was needed faster. The engineer would be quick to work on repairs while the medic would need to be protected while tending to wounded soldiers and civilians. The repairs would be shorter than the healing, but to compensate, the engineers search would be longer than the medics dash for a Resistance outpost or fort, or somewhere else where people need help. I know these are all Resistance related, but I feel as though these missions could help the player see what the Resistance REALLY was. We didn’t get much of that in Forces, which I think is a shame. We all know what Eggmans army is like, but we barely got to truly know the Resistance, and I also think this could help show how they personally were affected by the war, things like how Green Hill fell, like how Knuckles mentioned in the cutscene before the avatar, Sonic falling in battle and being captured, Operation Big Wave, and even the Final Battle at Eggmans Imperial Tower. Maybe some dialogue criticizing Knuckles and Operation Big Wave, or talk about the big war heroes besides Sonic like Silver and Amy, or maybe even some soldiers would be Sonic fans themselves, or maybe the dialogue could be the soldiers talking about the hub as their home, saying what they think of it and how it was involved in Eggmans war, if it was. Just give more personality to the Resistance, make them feel like an army of people who fight for a common cause: freedom from the tyranny of Eggman. To show that the Resistance truly unified the world, maybe some would have an accent, some would have certain characteristics, maybe have some shy soldiers, confident ones, even just regular people in the middle

[@eveefan-9598]

ok i am so sorry to go wild in the comments section here but this video is so great!!!!!! i loved it so much!!! and i cannot wait for the next one!!! some more specific stuff / thoughts i had while watching this were: maybe for the NPCs have a sort of similar thing going on to Miitopia, where you could use other people's miis downloaded off the internet as well as making your own and setting their roles? i think it would be really fun to have the ability to make characters and put them in a variety of NPC roles! ofc this is all just a theoretical game, but i just thought that that would be a cool idea to add in the theoretical universe where this game did get made! also, coincidentally, Explorers of Sky is my #1 favorite game of all time and DQIX is my #2! I thought it was really funny that they both got mentioned in this video, especially bc DQIX doesn't get talked about very much (at least that i see lol). the metal characters also are a really amazing idea! i liked this video a lot and cant wait to see the next ones! thank you so much for putting so much effort into making these, they're really cool!!!!

[@chaosproject91]

I wrote an actual FanFiction that seems pretty similar to this. Infinite obtains the original Phantom Ruby from Mania, making him stupidly powerful, but before he can actually do anything with it, it's stolen from him by a new, even more mentally insane villain. Infinite, left without anything but his old sword and his skills as a mercenary, is forced to join forces with the Avatar and the rest of the heroes, with the clearly stated intention of getting the Ruby back for himself and nothing else. Throughout the game, the heroes try to convince him that he can be a hero himself, that he doesn't need the Ruby, but in the end, he still chooses the path of destruction, leading to a heartfelt moment where the Avatar finally has to admit that Infinite does not want to be saved. The game itself would've hypothetically been somewhat in the style of a world conquest tactical RPG, but still with its levels playing like a Sonic game.

[@dangerboatsouth4747]

This has a lot of promising ideas that is featured and it makes me upset that us the fans can think of more creative things than sega can, but I do have a few ideas I want to share if you don’t mind. The first big thing is you mentioned escort missions, well escort missions to behave similarly to a recent yoshi game that came out, yoshi’s crafted world, where in that game once you beat the level you have the option to go through again in a time attack and the entire level is flipped so you have to do it all in reverse. So this game could do something similar, let you start at the end or the middle with the escort and go to the goal. Another idea pertaining to gameplay is similar to the tag team stages in generations and forces, I mean with characters from the sonic series occasionally asking for help in a certain level and you get to travel along with them. They would help defeat enemies blocking you path and really easy missions could contain characters who aren’t very strong like cream or charmy, and hard missions could help you be joined by the man himself sonic. Finally, I feel like you go all out when it comes to customization, like if you want a male bat wearing a skirt, you got it. A female wolf in a male’s business suit, you got it. A female anything not wearing that strange suit when nothing else is equipped in forces? Strange but ok. Just go absolutely nuts, and just to add icing to the already iced cake, name you character anything, like hamburger, big’s cousin, fake fan. Again go nuts. Add more variety of enemies that are vastly different from each other and you might have an actual game on your hands.

[@Velvetpandas]

Considering what happened last i think the avatar is still out looking for infinite but when they do find him he may still have a messed up memory

[@Danariya1]

Allright, now I just need to find out which person I have to pay to play "Avatar adventure: Aftermath"

[@LoxyTheReindeer]

So I know I’m a week late but I still wanted to throw my two cents in. Just a few random escort missions I came up with. You could encounter a Moneybags-esc character that you have to escort in order to receive prototype shards or possibly since he would be such a pain to deal with a wispon upgrade. He would collect and keep every single ring in the level except the first 2-10 you collect dependent on which character you run into and how greedy they are. This obviously would make it incredibly hard to stay alive since it would be very easy to get hit, lose your rings, not be able to collect all of them/ not be able to collect them at all, and die having to restart the mission. And some of the more greedy ones could take longer to catch up because they’re “taking their time” making you waste time while waiting for them. Another idea is a thing that would take place in the hub worlds, obviously everything is in ruin and clean up is taking place. Well, you could give up some rings to the townspeople to help speed up the clean up and rebuilding of broken buildings, and in return you could receive prototype shards or any goodies that might have been hidden in the wreckage, like a forgotten and abandoned wispon. Another escort mission could be to take a scholar through, but because it’s in their nature to learn and explore they could end up trying to get into some things they probably shouldn’t mess with. Or you have to kill an enemy a certain way so the scholar can look inside and figure out how it’s systems work. Another idea is a search and rescue idea. You have to carefully comb hazardous wreckage to find a missing person. You have a limited amount of time to do this before the wreckage collapses and you have to be extremely careful to not cause it to collapse early and bury both you and the missing person. This could include not being able to use your wispon, not being able to tether with the grappling hook, or not being able to run and instead having to take a steady stroll like speed. One last idea is to have to run through a stage and get to a back up generator somewhere in the stage because the town that is in the hub world has lost power. That’s all for now

[@AJtheRatty]

Found this video AFTER finding and watching the two story parts and the Sonic Forces re-write. This whole series is worth the listen.

[@mageofshadow]

I REALLY dig this gameplay concept you got for the game, kinda reminds me of a few ideas I had for Forces where I tried to focus more on the Avatar itself and more expansive levels. If I may add some of my ideas to this, I'd have to say the old wispons should get reworked to better fit the new gameplay and generally to make some of them not feel like worse versions of the other ones(e.g. the cube wispon who previously only had the ability to trap enemy into giant cubes can now have those knocked around when you're close to them, destroying stuff that's in the way). Gotta go see part 2 now.

[@mr.dudley3484]

Honestly, I'd replace two wisps, Void and Rhythm, with Rocket and Laser. Laser would be weapon that dealt less damage the longer you held down the button, pierces through enemies, and bounces off of walls, allowing for unconventional attack angles (wisp power would be like in Colors). Rocket would just be a straight up homing missile with a big explosion, yet high cooldown between shots so you couldn't just spam the thing and win (wisp power would increase the power of your wire attack, creating big explosions if it hits something head on).

[@KiExx0]

Amazing how the fans of a series can develop better gameplay than actually experienced game developers. Can't wait to watch the story! Yes, I already know it's out, but seeing all of these ideas for gameplay makes me really wonder how the story will turn out.

Someone should make this an actual game! Also... If Chaos Emeralds are involved then you should be able to unlock a sorta costumisable super form (like changing the color and hair) 100% completion bonus should be that you unlock hyper form which OBVIOUSLY is O.P. and is also costumisable like the super form. Also 2-player modes should be a thing, like, being able to finish levels together, or fight each other, like different modes and things; it should also be online and local multiplayer. There should also be an unlockable Sonic that can pick up any wisp and use only the special ability for the wisp (like Sonic colors) and he would have (basically the drill wisp but more like a spindash for) a spindash, and he would also have the boost and maybe some other abilities. There should also be the laser wisp and it could shoot lasers (duh) and the special ability would be basically like the normal attack except you shoot yourself! The frenzy wisp from Sonic colors should be a more close combat type of wisp-on but it wouldn't be U.P. and the special ability would be teleporting to enemies and slicing them up! Sorry that I put so many thing! I'm thinking too much! The job I want is to make games, I would've been making this game right now, but, I don't reeally know how to.

[@lizaglenn4927]

The two wispon ideas sound awesome and fun to play. I actually have ideas for more wispons. Lazer - The main attack would be a lightsaber like sword, perfect weapon for melee attacks and can take out enemies quickly. Down side being it sucks at long range attacks and large groups. It's special ability is basically Sonic's boost. Problem is that rings or enemies won't replenish it. Bomb - A grenade-like launcher that fires bombs (shocker) that can take out large groups of enemies with an explosion (another shocker). It can be shot at a rapid pace. It's special ability could be a screen nuke that can take out all enemies on screen. Frenzy - A claw-like device that, when holding down the attack button, can chomp and move forward and can take out enemies with one attack (think of it like when it was in Sonic Colors). It's special ability is with every enemy you defeat in frenzy mode it wispon could become larger, making it easier to defeat enemies. Regular wisp - Think of the ones you see npcs with in cutscenes. It can either be the wispon you have in the first level or can be unlocked for players who want an extra challenge. That's all I have for now. I might add more later. Love this video though, however I don't like the fact that you added echidna to the species list because isn't Knuckles the last of his kind? Still love these rewrites though.

[@lunatic0verlord10]

5:15 Defeat a certain number of a type of foes. Race an NPC. Collect all the shards that only appear during the side mission. Find a midboss hidden in the stage and beat him.

I would love it if there were also new Wispon based on the Hawk and Asteroid Wisps from Lost World. Hawk could function like the balloons from Generations, a homing attack that keeps your momentum with the special being like a short modern Sonic like boost. Asteroid would shoot out small grenade projectiles that suck in enemies and then explode (think Astro Man's weapon from Mega Man 9) while the special could be a combination of Asteroid and Frenzy Wisp's abilities - a short invincibility period where you mow down everything in your path.

[@KayFleetwayMS04]

Maybe including a bonus "Sonic" mode in the game that can be unlocked when achieving 100% completion. This mode will allow you to play as Sonic himself, with him playing like a better Sonic from Forces, boost and everything.

[@nightcollapse]

YES. I was so hoping for a part two!

[@jsandwich6680]

A bit late on this but I thought of a interesting idea for a potential side mission. How about the idea of having to go through a challenge stage that requires you to not use your Wispon or Wire attack. This will require the player to have to rely on platforming skills to avoid obstacles and enemies. It could also be a good way to help bring back the wall jump considering the last time it was used in a main series game was Sonic Lost World (no I'm not counting forces because you could only use it in one level) P.S. loved the vid! You did an amazing job and I can't wait for part 2

[@justalpha9138]

Why!? Why is this so freaking good! Best you believe I would make music for ya if this came to be! :D

[@mikester8171]

Imagine how cool it could’ve been if the Custom Hero had some Chao garden elements. Maybe enemies dropped phantom drives when destroyed and collecting them allows you to rank up different aspects about your character.

[@Garrulous64]

It's funny, I didn't even think to add a Chao garden. One of the other original game ideas I have includes that though.

[@tinooftime7149]

An idea for side missions. You would enter a building (in the hub) and see OCs designed by sonic devs, and talking to one would reveal who they are and give you a mini-level where you would play in one of the areas of other sonic games

[@PepperMcLime]

Watching through this again, I’m a bit surprised you didn’t opt to include the Cyan Wisp. I imagine it’d function very simple, just firing small beams that do moderate damage, but they could bounce off of walls to let you pull off cool bank shots on enemies or shoot around corners. For a special it could just fire a giant laser that could cut through large groups easily. Simple, but effective, and fun to boot.

[@Garrulous64]

I decided against it since the flame wispon already has a projectile that extends from the player. I opted for things that were different enough from things that existed already.

[@yosup6604]

I like the way this channel is going

[@nebuchadnezzar8683]

IDW Sonic Comics didn't mentioned Infinite throughout the Issues so far but this on the other hand might still work.

[@TiStardust]

So, for Hub Worlds, will we be forced to explore them all the time to talk to NPCs and get to levels like Unleashed, or will we be able to pull up a sub-menu akin to Unleashed Wii's version of the Hubs to talk to NPCs, access levels, and do side missions. There are a lot of people who aren't a big fan of Hub Worlds, and Hub Worlds in Sonic games always felt like padding to me. I just think having options is important, and quick menuing is something that a lot of games with Hub Worlds seem to miss. Overall, this video is great, and clearly has a lot of thought put into it. Can't wait for what's up next!

[@Garrulous64]

Hub worlds aren't complicated. I explain something in a later part that makes it even easier to find the availabe missions.

[@TiStardust]

@@Garrulous64 Gotcha. Cool beans.

[@DannysParadise]

Sonic fans are talented, I wouldn’t doubt that there would at least be an effort to make this an actual fan game

[@martawashington6448]

I get this is like an Ideas and predictions sort of thing, but I feel so teased, I want this to be a thing now!

[@chrisgarbutt1893]

I love the idea of using Whisper's Variable Wispon for the Avatar. It reminds me of the Morph gun from Jak and Dexter. For the backstory of the Avatar I think having them be a honorary member of the Jackal Squad before they got wipe out would help develop both Infinite and the Avatar.

[@baileybosco5224]

Sounds quite promising, I like where your heads at :)

[@maddog197x]

Personally I can’t think of any specific outcome for the story because even with the rewrite there’s so many different ways this could go. That being said, super excited to see what you come up with. In regards to missions, imo Sonic and the Secret Rings comes to mind. The missions were very expansive in regards to content and quite unique too. There could be missions in Avatar Aftermath like collecting a certain number of Wispon power ups, defeating a certain type of enemy, or maybe even completing a level but forced to pass various “checkpoints” before doing so, aka being forced to take a certain route.

[@speedingsonic3645]

Y'know, we could hear our Avatar finally speak, y'know how Xenoverse 2 Custom Characters at the end actually say "Kamehameha!" (Or if you get the secret ending you get "Dragon Fist!" instead)

[@Jayromi2]

I know you're already at PAX but still have lots of fun anyway, you and Dave both!

[@Garrulous64]

Thanks Jay!

[@TevyaSmolka]

your story for infinite sounds awesome

[@Foxgirl1441]

I've been wanting something like this thank you

[@vaporv01d32]

I think I have an idea to expand upon the Prototype Fragments. Instead of getting Fragments by replaying side missions, you get Phantom *Tokens.* They still have the upgrade capabilities, but don't count as a Fragment (Think the "Blue Stars" from Mario 64.). This was, you can get *every fragment* from doing new/incomplete quests, and when you get all of them, you can get a secret ending, boss, or something else along those lines. Heck, maybe even a Transformation! Maybe something like "Phantom Avatar", I dunno.

[@ang1217sr]

Two ideas: 1. Randomize option for custom character so that you can either get good creations or abominations And 2. If you are able to complete every side mission, every stage with the best rank possible, basically 100% the game, you can be allowed to play as Infinite with his Phantom Ruby Powers. He could fly, making it easier to move around, use basically all the Wisp abilities but with a Phantom Ruby skin, and for a special can summon a random canon Sonic character for them to do a special move, say like Sonic preforming a flurry of homing attacks, Tails could fly his plane around for a few moments, shooting enemies, you could have Shadow slowing time, and so many other random specials.
