I only have two problems with all the references (and even then, they're just nitpicks). First is the fact that Sticks is from an alternate continuity, and yet Amy mentions her in the ending as if they already know each other. Granted, she probably has a counterpart in this continuity, so you could excuse it with 'only Amy (and possibly Cream) knows Sticks in this universe'. Second is the fact that it makes it harder for newcomers (like my Dad) to get into it. I'm doing my best to explain everything he needs to know to him, but it's hard to do that without getting into all the discourse involving the previous games, and I think I'm losing him.
@BunnyTPerson Жыл бұрын
@@MattTOB618 that's some fair criticism, but i belive that the referenced were there just for the newcomers to learn that the franchise is way deeper than people used to belive. Also, Sticks technically already existed on that reality, but only on Spinoffs like "Mario and Sonic at the Rio 2016 Olympics Games", and "Sonic Runers", but i agree that she needed a better introduction first.

While I like the many references Sonic makes knowing it's proper acknowledgment of what's canon, it still rings hollow to me because there's too many. It starts to feel less like a cheeky wink saying "remember this?!" And instead starts feeling like a nostalgia checklist and that mainly leaves me feeling indifferent to these references because of Sonic Team's past over reliance on nostalgia. It feels less genuine and more just an attempt to win fans over, if that makes sense.

Also, in that same Egg Memo which confimed TSR as canon, an "EggNet" is mentioned. The EggNet is an Eggman Empire communications network that has until now only been mentioned and a kind of significant plot device in the IDW comics. The "Bad Guys" miniseries has been the piece of Sonic media that has explored this concept to it's fullest so far.

Ahh, I didn't realize the first episode of Adventures of Sonic came out 12 days before Sonic SatAM

@@DPadGamer Oh I thought it was a whole year but apparently that wasn't the main series. That's weird that they were happening at basically the same time

Happily would trade Whisper being canon over anything from unleashed, The only Sonic game sides Boom I can't stand.

I like the one where Sonic Looks at a Box on top of a piece of land sticking out and says "That is begging to be climbed, the view would be incredible!" A reference to a Sonic 2006 bug where you can stand on a box and attack to make Sonic and it go up infinitely. Its not the exact quote, just going from my memory.

I would LOVE it if we were to at the very least given a comic where Tangle gets a good runaround of a Classic Sonic location (like Angel Island), getting to see all the amazing zones found within. Mushroom Hill Zone would be a real playground for her, with all the weird pulleys and mushroom hang gliders and all.

An Easter egg I found just now is when your in the cyber space levels and hold down on the control stick while running you do Sonic’s classic spin dash / roll from Sonic 1 and it even does damage

Sonic frontiers really nailed it imo, got it this christmas and i cant put it down lol, imma replay it in hard mode now i know about the special boss fight
@DPadGamer Жыл бұрын
FYI: you can fight the hard mode boss by simply toggling hard mode on before the loading screen after the final Island Titan dies, so you don't need to replay the whole game. Unless you want to :p

Bro, idk if it’s too late, but in cyber stages, if you home attack and then boost as soon as you press square, you will go really fast in cyber stages
