Love how a story you came up with the disparate plot concepts of Sonic Dream Team in just an hour was able to bring a little tear to my eye. Also, not sure if this was an intentional link, but love how the characters getting to meet up with Ariem in their dreams feels kind of similar to Ohshima's thoughts on players being able to meet Nights in their dreams. Adds a bit extra to the more genuine Sonic feel of your concept.

[@CanaldoZenny]

It was Iizuka who said that. Also, there's something very Nightopian about Ariem's design. Pariah's rewrite made me understand what I don't like in Ian Flynn's writing and why Pariah says Ian's writes like the MCU. In the last 15 or so years there has been a rise of what ha sbeen recently dubbed as the "explaining movie". This kind of writing rose to prominence with the first Avengers movie, and has been ruining all sorts of western works. The explaining movie explains everything, and characters often acts like they are aware they are fictional characters in a movie. There's also an obsession with self referential humor and the IP's canon. Those things are used to instigate theories so fans can make content on social media to drive conversation about the movie. Ian's writing is a lot like this. Because he is a fan, he writes for other fans. He writes what will generate buzz on Twitter. The inclusion of the Giant Enemy C rab meme is there for people to point on social media.

[@ShadwSonic]

That story frustration reminds me of when I heard the "can't have Sonic be broken" explanation for Forces' one-dimensional portrayal of Sonic (among many other big failings), and I _immediately_ realized they could've leaned into that harder. Of course Eggman would try to torture Sonic in that position, and if he were to just... _refuse to break,_ it would frustrate the Doc further and highlight Sonic's strength of character... as well as being slightly humorous, and perhaps adding in some needed urgency by saying Eggman "giving up on breaking Sonic's will, so he'll just break Sonic" or something along those lines.

[@KYRA_RISING]

I think that rewrite o’ yours might’ve officially just dashed what was left of my faith in Ian as a writer. It’s literally so simple to make even the most barebones Sonic story so much more compelling and emotional and fans like you just keep on proving he can’t do it…

[@Snaaaaap]

If true from what I heard is that he just won't, not that he can't. Apparently he studied Shakespeare and the like, but doesn't care for themes in sonic stories that much. He cares more about if he appeases fans with fan service and references. Hence why the eng script for frontiers is up to your ears with them. It's funny to note Flynn was surprised the writer for scrapnik island was allowed to write what he did which had themes and had something to say. Maybe he's just burnt out or has grown complacent in the sense he knows he doesn't have to try hard anymore. Even if he's replaced he'll be able to get work elsewhere with the resume he has now.

what makes your rewrite really stand out even though it's pretty simple yet effective is that with that kind of story structure arc, it can allow for layers of interpretation coming from the themes presented which makes thinking about the characters, their motives, what it brings to the player, and what it says about the nature and importance of friendship really fun and amazing to think about Based on Cream's desire for her friendship with Ariem to be kept in check distance wise(both physically and mentally), and trying to think of what's best for her, Cream, and the friends she's met of the Sonic cast. It was the moments and time she spent that she valued which made her decide on her own as an person(not through some algorithm that she felt had to be bound and defined by) that she believed to be the best for her, that spending time with friends creates a sense of belonging and purposefulness and can bring a breath of fresh air into your life that has never been accomplished compared to mostly being alone even when creating that tolerance I prolly have more to add and say in terms of my own interpretation of how I see your rewrite, but for now, you COOK

Personally, I really like the change they made to Knuckles' glide. The biggest problem I had with it was how busted it was, and how little the level design accomodated it in previous 3D games. Like, if your main ability is to skip massive swathes of the level for no cost, where's the challenge? Where's the satisfaction of using all of your skills and knowledge of the level, where you can skip all the challenges? At least here you have to THINK before using it, thinking where you can cover the most ground, and where it would be best to avoid flying to not fall into a pit due to the increased gravity.

( meaning it's written like an actual Sonic story.)

Dream Team doesn't sound like the greatest Sonic game, but a ton of potential for a fully fleshed 3D Sonic game like this on consoles would be fantastic. That's why it's still so frustrating that this was the time SEGA was like "alright, we'll let this Sonic game that fans would love happen". A game that is exclusive to a subscription service for Apple devices...why?! As much as I enjoyed Frontiers, the idea for this game is honestly better, IMO. Maybe they could mix Frontiers and this game's ideas. Throw in a nice couple of Chao Gardens and a great story (and you know, fully finish the game) and we'd have possibly the best 3D Sonic game! Of course when I say mix them, I mean mix them up with the best aspects of those games. Also yes, your idea for the story does sound better.

Because with everything you've talked about on this franchise I feel like this show has a lot of what you enjoy in Sonic stories and I'd be particularly interested in hearing your thoughts on Chris' character. It's a very dear show to me. Also, your rewrite of Dream Team's managed to get a "aaaww" out of me and yet you've barely put any work into it. It's wild that Ian Flynn can't come up with stuff like this because it practically writes itself. Flynn definitely has cool ideas, but I feel like he lacks vision when it comes to the stories he writes, almost as if he thinks of stories as nothing more than just events happening one after the other and not a whole with themes and a message and event happening working on building on (and to) said themes and messages. Apparently his early Archie stuff was really good but I don't know, if he wrote back then as he writes now, was it that great ?

[@speedslider3913]

The idea of exploring Eggman's memories and personality traits through dream levels Psychonauts-style sounds AWESOME, I can already imagine stuff like exploring a school with the aesthetics of a nursery or carnival to represent how smart he felt he was compared to everyone else, or his nightmare world where nature and tech coexist peacefully and his face isn't on any of it. It's too bad that concept had to be used for a low-budget mobile game (albeit a good one) focused more on being dream-like rather than actually like dreams.

There is already two Frontiers 2 leaks on 4chan, one from July, other from September. If the info they gave is to be believed, "Frontiers 2" is just Frontiers but better. Same combat, same premise. But the build they described had stylized graphics (still realistic); was one massive island (bigger than all islands from Frontiers); had the same combat system, but the movement had an overhaul. The build they tested had momentum physics, and the boost was nerfed - you had to learn how to keep the momentum to fun fast. The way they described reminded of how Spark the Electric Jester works in 3D.

Ngl, as a fan of Ian Flynn’s Archie work, it gets a little annoying hearing people complain about what he’s made. Even if I can understand and agree with many of their problems. I guess it’s that I know Ian can make an enjoyable story, it doesn’t even need to have a theme as long as it’s good. (And no, I’m not just referring to action. I can imagine him writing a story that is more heartfelt and character driven without having to have a deeper meaning) Heck, ngl, I also have many problems with some of Ian’s stories in the Archie days with how they are handled. So I know he isn’t perfect nor his Archie run. Seriously, I really love Mina Mongoose and I still don’t entirely like the direction Ian took with her singing an anti-Nicole song. That bit, no matter if it could make it work without ruining her character, still ruined her for a lot of people. And it gets sad to look back on. Especially how poorly written it is that it makes more sense that Naugus was the one who snapped his fingers and warped the song and warped Mina and her band’s memory of it, as he amplified everyone’s emotions. But they never take that direction.

[@raptortown]

17:03 man, whenever his name shows up it like a bit Pariah is not sad or angry. Just disappointed

[@gokublack9724]

Not really forgotten for me, in fact I'm planning on getting a high powered apple tablet to finally play it

[@FedericoMigliorati]

Pariah will you ever do a video about spark the electric jester?

[@BakuganRey]

All i will say is goddamit why is it apple exclusive, we finally get a good sonic game, made by a different studio ever since dimps essentially died and we can't play it

[@sonicthehedgehog8638]

Pariah: amazing Sonic story in one hour Sega: a decade and a half and they still can't write barely passable one

[@JakeThehedgehog-m1x]

Nah his re-write still missing a mark basically making ariem naive and idiot knows nothing about friendship but her character suppose to be a wise, experienced and kind guardian this re-write makes this experienced guardian into an idiot..which it doesn't work. There's a decent depth into it but it doesn't work because of this.

[@keithflippers4429]

Shes not dumb she just dosent know what friendship is because shes been alone ​@@JakeThehedgehog-m1x

[@fat-gotenks]

Damn this game is solid

[@krystiancharos889]

Listen, I wish you wouldn't be ranting over the Mario and Sonic Olympic games, most people love this series! You know what I think Sega Sports R&D should've done to the later olympic games, Expand them. Expend the two universes, more new playable characters, more events, guest characters from other Nintendo and Sega franchises, and DLCs. As much as I like the possible Mario and Sonic crossover, You should review the Sonic/Mega Man crossover comics, and do a video on how Mega Man also influenced Sonic the Hedgehog. I also agree with your opinion on some of Sonic's friends development, like how often you think Blaze and Cream interact with each other. I would travel back to 2003 to persuade NYAV Post studios to dub Sonic X instead of 4Kids. Ryan Drummond and the dreamcast actors would reprise their characters in Shadow the Hedgehog until Deem Bristow dies of heart attack and NYAV Post over the later games. I'd work at the Sega to help make Sonic 06 great. For Sonic Generations, make Modern and Classic Tails, Knuckles, and Amy playable after going through the Classic Era. The supporting characters would compliment on how the Classic quartet looks after being rescued. Tikal would guide the player throughout the game instead of Omachao. We should bring back Team Hooligan, Mighty the Armadillo, Ray the Flying Squirrel, Marine the Raccoon,and Honey the Cat for the modern spin-offs.

People forgot about it cause they cant play it wake me when its on switch

[@MetalWeebChaos]

Another example of a game ruined by exclusivity. Shame too, this looks kinda fun.

[@elibonham4388]

Friends let you down that shouldn't be the story of Sonic giving praise to the most high allah. Should be the story of this game

[@aortaplatinum]

Imma be real wit u b I played this once on my gf's iPad when it came out and completely forgot it existed like how I somehow finished Sonic Riders Zero Gravity as a kid and remembered nothing about it so I was blindsided when I saw this as your next video instead of Sonic X Game's final boss theme fuckin slaps tho I do remember that
