Too many instances that would warrant a CRT Thread being made on them
Like what? When Sonic is at the forefront? When he’s not in the picture, it’s always her leading literally everything. Regarding the flirting/cracking jokes thing, yeah that’s peppered into almost all of their interactions in the IDW comics.
Literally far from it. This is always present within Amy’s interactions with Sonic but with a more flirty vibe to it. Tails doesn’t have sass in the comics. He does quip back a lot but not sass.
Once again, too many instances that would warrant a CRT Thread being made on them
By who exactly?
Doesn’t change the fact in execution it was forced and not naturally woven in. Especially given how big of scale the Metal Overload fight and Metal Virus epidemic was, it felt like a last minute decision instead of a nice build up with trials and tribulations.

Nowadays she kind of is just “the girl”, being overtly melancholic in Frontiers about “the beauty of the world”, or just being a girlboss in the comics. I think Ian has done great stuff in the past, but people who call him the Dave Filoni of Sonic aren’t entirely off.
Even then she bases her entire decision making process on cards, like that is not Amy. She is confident in her path, no matter how misguided it might be. Plus I was mainly talking Final Horizon.

I'll admit her using it in combat in Frontiers was kinda cool, maybe she has the potential to be more rooted in actual magic down the line rather than vague bs mysticism.

Exatly, if they wanted to make more use of that part of her background, they should have at least made her use the cards more creatively. She should be a magic user while we're at it.

well.........give a couple then?
that is not the part i was questioning it
Nah
define "sass", cuz you said the same thing twice now as far as i am concerned
until you show i will call cap
i dunno, that is the "advange" of the time skip, things just happened off screen without us having any clue of what, why and how
considering that the plans constantly failed in both of those......then i guess it fits with it being "last minute plans"
what does that even mean?
again, meaning?
she didn't use them at all in the Neo Metal Saga nor in Metal Virus................plus the whole point of the cards is that they are merely a "hint" and can't actually see the future, she used it for like, 1 scene in frontiers for that, you are kind of exaggerating tbh
........how does that correlate to anything? yeah, she is confident in her path........so she shouldn't ever try to use the cards when she has no idea what to do at all?

Yeah this is the really annoying part of the Final Horizons moveset for me. Them almost entirely ignoring the Piko-Piko Hammer for a deep cut like the tarot cards was already a bit silly (although I do quite like bringing the cards back as a concept), but then half of her moveset is also just her using the cards the same way she would already use the hammer. There’s no reason why her basic attack or bounce couldn’t have been done with the Piko-Piko Hammer instead.

To be honest: I'm of the firm opinion that SEGA, prior to Frontiers' release, didn't intend to make Knuckles, Tails, and Amy playable characters in the game until Frontiers was proven to be such a massive success that they decided to make the Final Horizons DLC. It's pretty headcanon to say, I acknowledge this, but it definitely does explain why those three play like they were only worked on for a much shorter time compared to Sonic.
Frankly? I would've preferred if Final Horizons just acted as a massive expansion to the base game's story and have Knuckles, Tails, and Amy be fully playable in a sequel game

I think SEGA would rather become actual wet gravel before letting magic be canon to Sonic

I am happy to see something Amy cares about be talked of more, in-canon. SEGA immensely rarely ever lets any writers actually go into the characters at all, so, I will at least take what little we can get.

Lil update on my Boom profile revisions; I finished Metal and I'm mostly done with Lyric's profile mostly needing to add references. I'll make the CRT to add the revisions after I do Shadow to get Boom's less-prominent characters out of the way.

Don't know if it matters, but Eggman can pickpocket the iconic pocket-wearing Sonic The Hedgehog

I can't remember if I've already shared this, but Eggman can force a target to move only 1 space for the next 3 turns.
Also I just realized, we should definitely clip/screenrecord any stuff from these VODs that are important. Twitch VODs tend to expire and go away after 2 months, I think.

Can you repost all your clips? I think we have people in this thread who can port them to imgur, and then we can replace them in Pepto's thread.

Lmao. Sure I'll add this. Is theft some kind of power on the wiki, or is this just stealth + hammerspace manip?
You did. It's statistics reduction (most likely speed). I added it to my CRT already. Thx for making sure though.
You can just access all the other clips from my CRT if you want to do it.

Well, I will need to clip them, first, I believe, if I am understanding. These are just direct links to the whole VOD, timestamped.
I could open these VODs on my phone and screenrecord the specific moments, but, I cannot do so, right now. I'm hanging out with friends. When I'm free, I can take the time though.

Also, the VOD has already expired, but here is a video of someone documenting all outcomes for the Medusa Mini Event in Sonic Shuffle.

I'm thankful they have this video. Since this is the Medusa event itself, I didn't feel the need to upload a clip of this to Imgur, really.

Sonic question time. What changes would you like to see in sonics combat for future titles and why?
For me I want perfect parrys to be a mainstay because it feels really badass to get it consistently and it's more rewarding than just holding the button down and being invincible.

I’d like there to be a ranking system akin to DMC or Bayonetta where you’re graded on style, as it stands there’s very little incentive to be good at Frontiers combat.

Aside from what you two brought up, a team switching mechanic could be awesome. Imagine setting up traps with Tails to capture an enemy, switching to Sonic and rapidly racking up damage, and then switching to Knuckles to finish them off. A Sonic Frontiers X Sonic Heroes kind of deal.

More imaginative combos and moves for me. Frontiers was cool but you could just spam Cross Slash and win.
