[@jakeriese4862]

When didn't he sound normal, and how do u think about him in this video

[@anthonypalacios5071]

@@jakeriese4862 People think Sonic's voice will be different in frontiers because there was a leaked recording of his dialogue and gameplay at a games con but the video was filmed with a literal calculator of a filming device (I'm exaggerating, it was probably an iPhone but the audio is not very good) and his voice sounded deeper. But I am 100 percent certain it was a mixture of different things that made it sound so deep. 1. is the audio recording quality being bad, 2. Roger very much could have just F'ed up his voice at that particular scene cause this was only one scene of many that will be in the game and 3. is the fact it could be the engine. Frontiers is using a different engine than the other games i think and this is the first open world game sega is making. The audio could be coming from the player model and maybe the echoing of the voice in the world causes it to sound deeper, as well as the crappy audio from the recording device.

@@Terminal_Apotos thank you someone who agree. Like go back to yu-gi-oh

[@Axxidous]

@@Terminal_Apotos Funny thing is Scott Dreier is my favorite as well. But I didn't mind Dan Green in the beginning. He had a tougher version of that voice to me in the early eps of Sonic X. His voice as Pharoah was actually a good voice to use for Knuckles if he'd actually used it. But then he got goofy and growly. I mean Scott's portrayal in Heroes made for a decent transition to that but still. I didn't hate Dan BUT Travis Willingham did a good job sounding a LOT like Dan Green but... somehow more comforting for me? Like he was able to mellow out the voice sometimes. I actually love his voice for BOOM (Though hate the characterization of course). So Travis is my second favorite voice. This voice isn't bad either tho.

[@Belthazar1990]

Loved the Starfall Islands being teased at the end, really nice way of making everything feel like part of the same universe.

[@Stewwit]

I love how knuckles isn't a dumb joke punching bag in this, he may have had trouble with the camera, but that's only because he's lives on a sorta remote island his whole life. Very nice!

[@RestlessDipstick]

Honestly, "It's my job to protect the emeralds, not use them," is a pretty good reason as to why Knux doesn't have a superform he uses often unlike Sonic, despite him having a closer connection to them. He just decides to not try to use them for that reason, 'cause he doesn't think it's his place as guardian to do that. Good stuff. Edit: To clarify, I know Knux has Hyper Knux, but that was only in one game. That's why I said, "Super form he uses often," as Sonic has used Super Sonic multiple times. Hyper Knux only had one in game appearance, and it's not clear if him ever using that form is canon to the games or not.

[@garrettously3605]

We need a game where he has no choice but to use the master emerald's power....a new super form design for knuckles would not hurt as well

[@revolution4122]

Knuckles acts and sounds great! Dave B. Mitchell's new voice direction really shines here, as he sounded a lot like some dumb jock in Team Sonic Racing, but now, it seems he's playing into his "Scott Dreier" and "Travis Willingham!" (Also, that "Oh. No thanks." (0:42) is such a mood, and how he wouldn't hesitate to hurt Tails (1:56), and I love it. I love him.) Knuckles himself is written pretty well here, and it's always great to see Sonic and Knuckles interact with each other (and freak out when Rouge is mentioned). And we finally get some confirmation as to why Knuckles doesn't use the Master Emerald to transform into Super Knuckles like in Sonic 3 & Knuckles! As the guardian of the Master Emerald, it isn't his place to use/abuse its power, much like his ancestors and forefathers before him, but since Sonic isn't under that regulation, he's allowed to without any consequences (2:11). And did I just hear Tails tease Hyper Sonic (2:17)? We also know that the Master Emerald doesn't just up and disappear. Knuckles will often leave his island unattended if Sonic can't save the world on his own (Heroes, Riders, '06, Lost World, Forces, Team Sonic Racing, etc.) (2:55). And finally, we get a tie-in to Sonic Frontiers, as Tails discovers a mysterious island while looking for the Chaos Emeralds and asks Sonic and Amy to come check it out with him. That's it. That's how the story begins (3:36). In conclusion, Knuckles is back. No more of that bumbling idiot we've had since 2010. EDIT: Also, a bit of a hot take, but I think I prefer his voice direction here rather than in Sonic Frontiers and the prologue animation. Coming back from those, I still heard a little bit of that "dumb jock" in his delivery at times, so can I say that his delivery in those were slightly inferior to what we got here or not?

Seeing how well done Knuckles character is handled in this short TailsTube makes me hope the next one gets Shadow so we can see him done well again for the first time in years

Knuckles sounds like the older incarnations now. Always nice to see him. :D And he did make a solid point, he only leaves the island to help save the world when Sonic can't do it alone.

Looking forward to that game.

Do you know how painfully hard it is, to keep a movie or game as new as possible? The only reason I enjoyed Sonic 2 so much was because I avoided trailers and therefore didn’t have anything to expect. (Except for you-know-who, of course 🦊)
