My Pitch for Sonic Adventure 3 (And Why the Series Needs it)

@@Lightning-2153 I think it's not the design thats copyrighted but her character and story, an echidna warrior who betrays a criminal echidna army. Not that that's a unique story and the fact that Penders won that is really fucked. I love the reboot u have for Shade! She's one of my favorite characters. Edit: Correction, As Robian Knight said, Penders did not win the case against Bioware and SEGA. I mixed up the results with the case against archie.

BLOW THIS EGG BASTARD AWAY FOR GOOD!*

[@LateNightHalo]

Something that frustrates me about the unwillingness to revisit the adventure formula is that it also benefits the DEVELOPERS. The boost formula is cool but extremely creatively restrictive. You can’t do a whole lot with it in terms of level design. The adventure formula is inherently “level focused” and had an emphasis on the player exploring and using the level itself to reach their goals. The devs would have a LOT more variety and creative freedom if they went with the adventure formula again

[@peterparker1683]

Lol didn’t expect to see you here. Also I agree with you 100%. Of the devs went back to using the Adventure formula we would have more Sonic games and not be stuck in this drought

[@espurrseyes42]

SA also isn't nearly as fast as Boost, so stages don't need to be nearly as big as a Boost game's. They have to be more depthful given the freer level navigation though, which is a good thing in my eyes.

[@RSproductions3425]

boost is enough. I want to see Sonic Team to bring back the Adventure Formula. TBH, I highly doubt that, SEGA is going to use boost again thanks to Forces.

[@j19aiden91]

Peter Parker LNG is also a Sonic fan. Lesser known for it, but yeah

[@guywglasses3910]

Honestly, I feel like there's a place for the boost system. Like how it was in Sonic 06 where certain parts of the stage, you had to run super fast to get to the end because that was the objective. I feel like that's the best place to put the boost system in Adventure game stages.

Eggman from 2006 (The timeline where 06 never happened) went back in time, to a point where Perfect Chaos already attacked, and found Cryona as one of the survivors.

[@yellowstarproductions6743]

Agreed

[@CosmicToad5000]

I really don’t get why people seem to ignore how SA2 proved there’s a way to have many playable characters without bloating the number of playstyles. Glad you factored that in by having “skins” for each of the playstyles. I honestly don’t care if Blaze is just a sonic clone with none of her fire abilities or if Omega is treated like a living organism in terms of water and stuff, I just want to play as them again! I do think the having every character be able to play every stage is way too ambitious though. Sounds like a great avenue for fan modding if the base game is designed in an easy-to-mod way.

[@antonioromano5508]

I entirely agree with you. Even though I’m finding this video as well as comment a few years too late… I believe what he said in the video still could apply now, even with the release of sonic frontiers. There is clearly a bit of work to be done in terms of just consistency as mentioned, but that will have to wait until we get a new mainline game a few years from now. Please keep in mind I haven’t beat frontiers yet, and I’m just talking off of what I’ve seen so far playing that game. (If you played it, please feel free to your feedback on it, if I can bring you back from this 2 year old comment 😅) But when he showed clips from unleashed, CD, the SA1 intro ( 2:08:19 ), it brought be back to playing Sonic Adventure 1&2 on the Dreamcast. Sonic adventure left me inspired as a kid, and it really felt that each character what important for who they were. Sonic adventure 2 unleashed a whole new level of depth to me. I’ve never seen any form of media as a kid that just brought so much emotion, much like how he felt with Gamma’s ending in SA1, that’s the game that truly sealed the deal for me. He’s right. The Adventure games are truly masterpieces just because of the fact they know what they are, and looking back, each character in both games had *depth* and emotion that I feel weren’t really matched in the last ~5 or so years I feel. Sorry for a bit of a post-video rant under your 2 year old comment, but assuming you read all of this I hope you’d agree ✌️

I wish they made that a little clearer though.

[@tylerdiggs9174]

I'm not head over heels for the story pitch, since I feel like its juggling too many plot lines and not giving any of them enough attention. It's a self-admittedly unrefined story, but I feel like that'd be the case no matter how much it was fleshed out. Silver, for example, ends up being about as auxiliary as Blaze is in '06, so I think that in theory, both characters are better served by starring in their own stories instead of competing for relevance in that way. I enjoyed the video though, and there are definitely good moments, like Shadow's attempted sacrifice, and I really like the idea of Angel Island bring permanently grounded now that Chaos is gone.

[@Lightning-2153]

Admittedly, I figured out the playable cast before writing the story, so I tried to figure out how to fit everyone into it. Silver and Amy in particular are here for gameplay reasons more than story reasons, but I tried to give them cool moments, like Amy reaching out to Omega and Silver saving Cryona. This huge cast is what I want out of an Adventure game, kinda like The Avengers movies, but future non-adventure games should have smaller casts, kinda like the non-Avengers Marvel movies. I'd love to see Silver get his own game 😁

[@Electro21964]

Personally, I'd want SA3's story to be more grounded, with about six characters being playable. I'd also rather the villain be an anthro character with his own personality, goals, etc, and not just another kaiju.

@@Electro21964 I think it makes more sense to have the final baddie be a big monster, simply because that's the way it was done for Heroes, 06, and Unleashed, all games that have the most relation to the Sonic Adventure series which also do things in this way.

[@cataquackwarlord5389]

Honestly, Big's story isn't the one I think needs to be improved the most: I think it's Amy's. She only got three levels - fewer than Big - and they could have done more with her. At the very least, I think they could have padded on a couple more levels. For instance, the area in Station Square where Zero first arrives in a cut scene is close to one of the entrances to Speed Highway. So Amy could have done the first level there before even meeting up with Sonic. Or switch things around so her escape from the Egg Carrier takes her through Sky Deck - and she enters Hot Shelter later when searching for Birdy's family.

[@Lightning-2153]

I like it. Overall, I think Zero needs to be more of a threat.

[@cataquackwarlord5389]

I agree. Say, have you played Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil? It's a great game, but anyways, there's this one arc where you're in this factory world and you end up fighting this defense robot. Then in the next level, where the whole place is on the verge of blowing up, the robot gets back up and pursues you to the death. It gave the sense of a determined, dangerous machine that just won't quit. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnq6aZytmNemfLs Also, they could do more jump scares where Zero suddenly ambushes you, or there's a hint that he's close, like with Samus's infected armor in Metroid Fusion.

For all intents and purposes, she's getting rebooted in this pitch, so there's no need to explain her past from Dark Brotherhood. Also, They put Charmy, Vector, and Espio into Heroes without exposing about Knuckles Chaotix (because they were rebooted as well as far as I'm aware).

The fact that she’s obscure doesn’t really matter for her inclusion. Ken Penders is the reason she wouldn’t/can’t be added.

[@centuremorrals]

Obscurity doesn't really matter much, it invites people to do research and find out more about the characters they love rather than letting the game tell them everything and hold their hand through every single expositional piece for every character. That's something that Sonic games have done right for a long time is not reintroducing older characters as if they're brand new over and over. Once they're a part of it, they're in later games (usually, with some exceptions) most of the time. Blaze, just so happens to be one. She went from some small, off track games to primary ones pretty quickly. Sonic 06 doesn't exactly count in my book as she was first introduced in Sonic Rush. Without 06, a lot of people wouldn't even know her.

I just watched the entire video I went from being interested in the gameplay to absolutely hooked up with the narrative to thrilled with the music and in complete agreement with the franchise reputation The gameplay, i couldn't have imagined it any better, the game just sounds so fun and innovative with the combat mode, i'm all for it The music, man..... Just... I love this fanbase And about the story, i can see why some would not like to retcon everything post SA2 That would mean: No Team Dark No Sol Dimension and Sol Emeralds No Neo Metal Sonic No Black Arms And No Light and Dark Gaia But.... You mentioned this game as a turning point, all the other games Pre Lost World shouldn't be retconed In AL The Boi's latest video (Why Sonic Unleashed Opening Works) i commented about how i would connect the whole series from Sonic 1 to Unleashed (he even responded, the dude is awesome) i would rewrite Shadow's game and all that but your pitch for SA3 would fill perfectly in between SA2 and Heroes (or continue with that cliffhanger from the future) Being said all that I LOVE YOUR HISTORY The characters are on point, and it connects so smoothly with SA and SA2 I love the cohesion with starting at Ice Cap setting the Chill narrative and foreshadowing with the question of "why it's always cold there?", it feels like world building not for nostalgia sake Things that i love: - That Angel Island is now on the sea, everything makes sense with Chaos at peace - That you included humans in the story - The way the conflict begins - The Chaotix just being themselves - The interactions between characters - Shadow's lack of amnesia and that you continued his arc and personality of SA2 - The new introductions of Omega - Shade - Blaze - Silver - Cream - The Chaotix and The avatar, wow i was just thinking of leaving the concept but you conviced me that is worth the try - Charmy playing Jet Set Radio, that would be a great gag with every game, Charmy just playing other SEGA games - Crayona, her story and character just sounds great (the Silent Saphire just works so well) - The way the story it's structured, with a linear story (the DLC sounds lit) the set of groups, the conversations, the locations, during the story part i was getting chills after chills for the Grand Adventure feel - The Kajus are neat and all but, having another animal character as the final boss, i mean, were you reading my mind? - The ending, man i couldn't help but to smile as i was listening, it's just perfect - The serious tone but with charm Now... I did feel that Silver was underutilized, but i mean with everyone shining this much someone had to pay a little, but it isn't something that sequels couldn't improve (check AL The Boi's vídeo on Silver) And at some point i was like "oh yeah, the avatar" but i don't see that as a problem, nobody wants such a good cast being overshadow by a custom character After the story ended i was like "man now they can make a Blaze and Silver game", like, they can use the Time Stones and maybe with time travel there can be a Mephiles Also there can be a game for only Team Chaotix as an open world You make wish for the future of the franchise with that ending You put the bases for a great sequel: Fix, Expand and Preserve Seriously man i love the video and if we ever get SA3 i want this video to be the mold Sorry for my English Grettings from México

[@hugoflores1093]

Neo Metal Sonic's plot of Heroes can be brought back. The Black Arms plot i rewrite it in AL The Boi's video from Unleashed (The comment section). The storybook series can fit wherever. The Advance stories can also come back. The Sol Dimension can still exist maybe with it's own Blaze. Colors with the DS writting please. Generations with more deep cutscenes and interactions. Even Lost World, the IDW comics make me think that the Lost Hex can work Give the Phatom Ruby another story. We can have the new cronology and fit the other games So the cannon doesn't sacrifice other beloved stories

Okay I've gotta admit that I was expecting to hear an awful fanfiction coming into this video but I was curious because it's been awhile since I've heard someone talk about an idea for Sonic Adventure 3 and I figured why not give this a watch? I'm glad I took the chance because I've gotta be honest, this actually wasn't that bad of a pitch at all. The thing I liked most about it is how you handled the main characters in the story because it felt like it was an ACTUAL progression of the characters what with having a more confident and take charge Amy Rose while still retaining her sweetness, Knuckles semi-withdrawn personality trying to adjust to life away from Angel Island and into civilization, Shadow being a little more open and less angst-ridden letting his guard down just a bit (definitely enjoyed this take compared to what we actually got in canon...), and Tails actually retaining his smarts and self-realized confidence (and how he got a little too carried away trying to inspire Cream when she wasn't ready in your story). You clearly know how the characters work, at least pre Sonic Adventure 2 before they got all weird and off course... I will admit that your character Cryona was a bit... Well I dunno but I do get the idea and it would be interesting. I also like how you incorporated Shade into the story, I didn't play Sonic Brotherhood (and frankly never will) but her story seemed plausible, especially with her getting to know Knuckles. It isn't perfect but it kept my attention and I can see it working with a few tweaks and refining. Only thing I would hope is they for the love of the holy spirit, bring Ryan Drummond back one last time to voice the blue blur if they do plan on making a Sonic Adventure 3. The man loved the role and he can still do the voice so it'd be great to see him reprise Sonic one more time. Anyway great video, I could definitely feel you put a lot of effort and passion into this. At the end of the day if they ever consider making a SA3, they need to do what they did with Mania. Enlist help & feedback from people who KNOW Sonic Adventure in the same way they enlisted feedback and help from classic Sonic fans for Mania. Do this and I'm sure it'll turn out just as good as SA2 was.

When the video ended, I sat for nearly 5 whole minutes in silence... Dude, that was incredible. I don't really know what to say that describes this other than: "wow" and "that was a masterpiece" In truth: I started this channel because I as well as many others that tapped out of the franchise have come back because fans like you, like Christian Whitehead, and even the youtubers who role play as Sonic characters (Tails and Sonic Pals etc) continue to express their love and passion for Sonic and thus kept the franchise alive, relevant and even helped it rise in popularity. At this time especially after the success of the movie, I have newfound love for the franchise that I haven't felt in years, and because of that I really want Sonic to be a respectable franchise again. Your video brings hope for that because it made me fully rediscover why I loved Sonic in the first place. *Thank you!*

[@RadiantBlazeVA]

Wow. Just wow. This was an amazing video. I can tell just how much heart went into this. 2 HOURS! And I sat here and watched it all. You've gained a subscriber my friend, and I hope to see more from you. But I want to offer my own thoughts about the whole thing. For one, you have the exact same idea as me. Remaking Adventure 1 and 2 and then soft-rebooting the franchise with Adventure 3. Now for me I've also entertained the idea of remaking Heroes as well, for one just so we have a trilogy just like Spyro and Crash did, but also because story inconsistencies didn't start happened until Shadow the Hedgehog, what with the moon, Shadow's entire character, and some story beats like the president having a picture of Sonic and Shadow like when??? I also wanted to do that because then the only characters you'd have to reboot would be Blaze and Silver as opposed to all of the Chaotix, Cream, and Omega. I know people bring up the idea of Shadow the Hedgehog being needed to follow up Heroes but honestly that game didn't need to exist. Shadow's arc ended just fine in Heroes and having that loose plot-thread of just what this Shadow was could have been something ambigous that was never answered and left up into interpretation, but I digress. One thing I really liked was your idea on gameplay. Making them all have the same speed is a great start and should always be the case for multiple playable characters in 3D Sonic imo, also wouldn't lead to the problem with the multiple playable characters we had in 06 where they played way too different than each other. I like the ideas presented in how the gameplay styles work and the idea of being able to choose who you play as in each style a la Brawl is pretty genius. The playable character selection itself is pretty perfect. I like the fact that you're not as apprehensive to the Avatar since I know a lot of fans that don't give Forces credit for anything. My only problem is Shade, just because Sega isn't allowed to use her because of Ken Penders being his horrid self, so you'd have to change her to a completely new character entirely unfortunately. The story is where I start to have problems. It's not bad at all mind you, easily better than anything we got after Black Knight and there are things I do like. One is Angel Island staying down which gives Knuckles the perfect reason to go along with Sonic and co. without any difficulties. I also do like how you go against the whole Two Worlds canon thing that Iizuka brought up. I'm not as hateful of it as other Sonic fans are (go watch Sega Scourge's 2 videos on two worlds I think he does a great job defending it), but I much more prefer them being on a singular world. Another is just basically how you represented the charcaters, writing wise they all are on point. I particularly like your point on Sonic, not sure if you've watched it but a youtuber by the name TotallyNotMark did a video on the character Goku from Dragonball and how he represents the flat character arc. It's a lot to describe but he essentially talks about what you have in mind for Sonic. And I absolutely love what you did with Shadow. My problem with the story is just that I don't think it's as action packed as SA1, 2's, and Unleashed's stories. I know this is probably because you're not an expert in the field, you even say that in the video but in terms of scale it doesn't compare. I also don't like how some characters feel irrelevant, Amy and especially Silver don't really do much (I basically had the same issue with Amy in SA2). Silver really just feels like an accesory to Blaze even more so than Blaze felt like an accessory to Silver in 06 because at least in 06, Blaze had the plot relevance of sacrificing herself by sealing the flames of disaster inside of her. I also don't like the catalyst of Charmy being kidnapped either. I know you need a reason for the Heroes to have to give Eggman the Chaos Emeralds but it essentially feels like the same exact thing that happened in SA2 when Eggman was threatening to shoot Amy which I feel was much better done in that instance. So I do think that some rewrites are necessary but I think this premise does have merit to it. I really do love the music segment you had. I dunno but there's something about this fandom that's magical. You mentioned so many fan videos (which most of which I have watched lol), showed fan games, and had the idea of throwing in fan covers/remixes of character themes which I think is a perfect alternative, it's just so crazy to me how dedicated this fan base is. Those last points you made, I honestly couldn't agree with you more. Sonic Mania succeeded because it had a clear goal and focus. Forces had no focus and wanted to do some of everything without being good at any of it. The franchise has lost its identity and it's unfortunate to see. It needs that drive again and it's entirely in the realm of reality. I don't trust Sonic Team to make these games anymore, it's sad but after what happened with Forces I think we need to give this to a team of expereinced developers (like Vicarious did with Crash and Spyro). Give them a budget (the last Sonic game that had a budget was Sonic Unleashed and that was over a decade ago). Get experienced writers (kick Pontaff out, either bring back Maekawa, bring in experienced writers and have them familiarize themselves with the series, or get Ian Flynn and/or Evan Stanley, two fans that have written for the comics and have established themselves as trustworthy of taken up a mainline story). And that's it. It doesn't have to be Adventure 3, I don't care. I just want a Sonic game that is to the level of Breath of the Wild and Mario Odyssey. Like you said, "Is it probable? Maybe not. But is it possible? Absolutely.". Okay woah super long comment, I'm sorry. But I'm just as passionate about this franchise as you are so I had to get my complete thoughts out there. Once again, amazing video dude. I'm happy I was able to randomly stumble into it by browsing the subreddit lol. Keep up the great work and I'd love to see you make more stuff. Whatever the next Sonic game will be, let's hope it'll be good.

[@Lightning-2153]

Thanks for the passionate feedback! I totally agree about the story. It's messy and needs more action. That whole section of the video was just me thinking out loud pretty much (though I am pretty passionate about Knuckles' arc as well as the final scene between Sonic and Shadow as well as Cryona's story (I love the idea of Shade fighting Cryona in the past with Shade in the present day watching with her face reflected in the TV screen (all while you're playing as her!))). It's a shame about Shade's whole situation; I honestly knew nothing about that while writing the script *sigh*. Would the story be better if there were fewer characters? Probably, but Infinity War proves that it's possible to tell an effective story with a huge cast, and like Infinity War, this is what I would want out of a finale to the Adventure trilogy. It's not easy, but it's possible (heck, if it was easy to make a masterpiece, the Sonic series wouldn't be where it is). At this point, I'd settle for a 3D game that plays like the Adventure games; even if it's really short, and even if you can only play as Sonic, I just wanna see someone nail 3D gameplay like they did with the Adventure games. That could give the series much-needed momentum for Adventure remakes, and then, hopefully, maybe we can get a proper Sonic Adventure 3.

[@Lightning-2153]

(not to be a know-it-all, but the Spyro Reignited Trilogy was made by Toys for Bob, not Vicarious Visions)

[@RadiantBlazeVA]

Oop, my bad haha. Well, the point is that I want an experienced studio to remake the first two Adventure games like Vicarious Visions and Toys for Bob, and then eventually develop the successor. Oh yeah, I really did like what you did with Knuckles and Shadow. It is sad what happened with Shade as I thought she was a really cool character from an otherwise lackluster game. The story-writers of that game tried to tackle lore that the main games have never bothered to which I find commendable in its own right. And I also want to give you props for bringing the idea of combat gameplay as it is rather interesting to see how that could work in a Sonic game if done properly. I do agree with the idea of being able to write a story with many characters but the thing about Infinity War was that it have serveral marvel movies worth of build up. You also had several movies with these characters so you knew a lot about the current cast going in which is a key reason as to why Avengers worked but Justice League didn't (besides the bad story telling lol). Infinity War only introduced us to 4 new characters, those being the Children of Thanos which I think even non comic book fans were able to understand what their purpose was for that movie. So if we're going off of the proxy that this is for a reboot, who's to say we don't get Sonic games in-between releases that give us those introductions to those characters and then that leads us into Sonic Adventure 3 with those characters. After all Blaze was introduced in a side-game as well as Cream (although Cream was intending to debut in Heroes). And yeah I just want a good game period. The last 3D Sonic game I enjoyed was Sonic Generations, that was 9 years ago. And the last Sonic game's story I enjoyed was Black Knight, that was 11 years ago. Just make a game with good gameplay and a good story, I'll even take a subpar story if the gameplay makes up for it. It's just that I want to enjoy this franchise like I did when I was younger. Mania and the success of the Sonic Movie give me hope but I know that that hope can easily falter. But anyways maybe I'll start making videos on my channel again seeing as I haven't done that in forever talking about what I want out of this franchise since every other Sonic KZbinr is doing at this time it seems like since we're in a pretty big drought lol. Once again, great video dude and I hope to see more in the future.

And yes, a mainline 3D game of that sort.

[@Lightning-2153]

That'd be sweet! For SA3 specifically though, after the events of Sonic 1 through SA2, I feel like Sonic is at a place where he has come into his own, not just as a hero, but as a leader, and his positive influence on the people around him is what makes him a compelling character.

I'm just stumbling across this video and I have to say. As a long time sonic fan I long for the days of good story telling in a sonic game. Games like Unleashed, Secret Rings, Black Knights, and even 06 to an extent all TRIED to convince you of the story they were telling. Forces doesn't even try to fo that. Some of the best moments of storytelling from Forces were the teaser trailers before the game came out. The way they introduced us to Infinite before launch was the best part of the hype going into Forces. The quick shot with all the villains, his theme being an absolute banger, and his up to par voice acting made him seem like the next big bad guy...then forces dropped and the rest is history. If Sega doesn't see this then I hope some Independent developer does and makes a fan game better than any game post Generations (Mania Excluded). Love the vid.

Characters - I liked how all the characters feel like the characters from the games they were made in, such as shadow, Chaotix and Blaze, and the development of each one was great. Gameplay - I truly do appreciate you telling us the controls and even giving each character types like in sonic heroes, but still be able to make each characters fight in any stage. I love sonic heroes so I love this. Rivalry - One thing that stuck with me that there was subtle hints of sonic and shadow rivalry, such as the ending, the debating to sacrafice and other little parts you can see if you rewatch. And I'm glad it's not about who's better, its about fun which shadow should try more often. No classic sonic or stages - Although I don't hate 2.5 sections on their own, I do feel like they limit the games potential, so thankfully he decided not to add that. World building - One thing that the adventure games did well was world building, and parts in this such as the Chaotix and Angel Island show their can be world building. Silver and Blaze - Although Silver wasn't in the front as much as I would have liked him to be, I still think that his character was still great and he represented hope very well, plus the time travel wasn't complicated as it could've been. Crayona - Crayola-- I mean Crayona was a great character, good motivation and believable villain, plus a super ice god was a nice touch, no pun intended. I just wanna say thank you for making this, although I wasn't a massive Adventure fan before I played sonic adventure 2 a few months ago, I like the elements you brought in to make this great, I love everything about it (especially shadow). I might edit this after watching the video a few more times, but for now this is what I can think of and I truly loved your video.

You know a video is good when you come back to it from time to time

[@yellowstarproductions6743]

I agree.

Big ended up in jail for tax evasion because he gave them fish instead of rings

[@craigbarker4675]

This feels like a sonic mania for the modern era it’s just amazing and the story or fan fiction was beautiful I could see this as an actual sonic game or a fan game either way it’s great

[@yellowstarproductions6743]

Agreed

AMAZING!! I went from " i aint watching this 2 hour video" to finishing it fully. the heart that went to this, someone who truly believes in SA3!! i love it. sadly, this is next to impossible. Sega and sonic team will never put their all into Sa3 because they've forgotten what makes it special. thank you for this.

Sega is incompetent.

[@ADragonNerd]

Yeah they have no idea what to do with Sonic

[@xvaderxkiller5190]

This video need to be shared to everyone we need sega to see the possibilities if they actually try and stop being lazy. We need this

“Vector is doing taxes”

[@yellowstarproductions6743]

Agreed.

[@StuckOposum]

The comedy from the chaotix is just perfect. And another dlc could be a map of the skiing place at the beginning with races and collectibles in there

[@arseniojohnsonstudios]

this my favorite sonic video now

[@MysttheHedgehog]

Oh man, finally someone acknowledges Chosen One as a great theme for Shadow!

[@tytotech9498]

The exposition feels a little rushed, but I like the characters actually interacting.

[@jorgerivera5003]

I love that he mentioned Bayonetta because for me that game has the best combat system while mantaining momentum and the game actually rewards you for doing it right

that message at the end. that was... beautiful
