Thread theme:https://youtu.be/XKjOJuPjiu4Simple question. When everything you know has come and gone...And only scars remain of who you were...When there's no one left to carry on...That pain...You can't....What does it take to be INFINITE?
>>695161175He's too much, he's just such a loser character. Shadow already does a good job of being the cool emo one
He was too easy
>gets thwomp'd
>>695161175
>>695161175Clearly not enough to be in Shadow Generations.Yes, i'm still mad.
>>695161175Why does the damn song go this hard? This is in Sonic Forces?
>>695161175Infinite's design is so ass. I can't believe it made it past the concept art.
>>695162106The music is a big reason why anyone buys Sonic games. Even the shittiest Sonic game somehow manages to have some really good tracks in them. If SEGA decided ones day to just shift over to being a music label or producer or whatever, they'd make a killing so long as they stick to what they do.
>>695162106Sonic is a franchise you either understand and embrace or you don't. No inbetween. The ones who get it know this kind of shit is commonplace. It's always hilarious seeing reviewers, influencers and others like them after still not understand Sonic's appeal.It's up to you though if you really want to go down the Sonic path. Let this be your warning.
>>695161667>>695163158At least Infinite has a theme unlike King Boo tbqhwyfam
>>695161175Fist Bump is an ass main theme.
>>695162705>Even the shittiest Sonic game somehow manages to have some really good tracks in themDid Chronicles have a single good track?
>>695161175King boo is going to haunt this character forever
>>695163518Chronicles doesn't exist. It was only a figment of your imagination.
>>695161667>>695163158The only good thing to come out of death battle.
>>695161175ive not played any sonic game aside from secret rings, which was bad, and the 2008 olympics, which was decent, but the tracks are nice. I dont really like the new tracks with the autotuned guy/girl in the more recent ones though everyone seems to like them. frontiers I think.
>>695163614That battle was the worst thing to happen to Infinite but it's a nice sacrifice since it's one of the best things to happen to Metal Sonic. People are now realizing just how Kino he is
>>695163518https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARy1oZ1wfhs
>>695164065Huh. Yeah, I'll accept that answer.
>>695162406How's this then?
>>695163158jej
Could he come back in Frontiers 2 or is he dead dead?
Infinite's backstory is hilarious. He just gets bullied by Shadow and decides to become a supervillain. And it's played completely straight, with no irony.
>listen to this 2000s faux Linkin Park level musicI know this game is shit, but I kind of want to buy it anyway. Exactly HOW shit is this game?
>>695161175I nominate King Boo as King of /v/
>>695165564Sonic Frontiers has the same type of music and is a better game, just grab that.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4gzIL8_G4Xs
>>695164884>is he dead dead?Worse. He's weak!
>>695165564>4 hour game>wonky physics with classic sonic>most regular sonic stages are just straight lines>bad cutscenesThe best I can say is that it's playable.
URGH'D
>>695165231>And it's played completely straight, with no irony.The point of his character is that he hides behind a mask and isn't as cool as he thinks he is. His powers are illusions. Sonic outright says this while staring directly at the screen in the game how do people not understand that
>>695163307King Boo has several things, just not in the same vain as some gay ass Linkin Park song.
>>695161175>bottomInfinite>topKING BOO!
>>695163971Do people still take slop battle seriously after the sun disk thing they did a month ago.
>>695167307Only when my character wins
>>695161175I'M NOT WEAKI'M NOT WEAK
>>695161667>>695165926I hope this meme continues and no one explains it to newcomers.
>>695161175Sonic Team loves introducing new characters and then making them complete shit, I’m glad Sage didn’t fall victim to this
>>695165231To be fair it's implied Shadow killed his friends just before
>>695168768Why didn't shadow kill infinite?
>>695169661Cause he lives a lie.
>>695161667
>>695161175Get fucked you waste of a Sonic Character with a dumb nameInfinite? More like infinitely wasted potential, KEK
>>695162705This is Sonic Forces in a Nutshell
>>695161175>took like 6 years until they finally let him in the shitty mobile game>blocked from appearing in the comics besides a single promotional one>blocked from getting merch>blocked from any publicity whatsoever>they just let him be a jokeI think Sega actually hates Infinite and regrets his creation
>>695163410It’s retarded how that song got put in Smash Ultimate >>695163614I love how this is getting more attention than Eggman himself losing the fight, Infinite fans will never recover from this
>>695167778Aww I love that cute chocolate wolf ;)
>>695163307https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JFBiIMN7PQ
>>695161767He might make a cameo in Sonic Mania 2. That's going to be coming out ANY DAY NOW!
>>695163307Does infinite have a hot ghost babe to do his bidding?
>>695171303I'd rather have no theme at all than whatever that is.
>>695167307NOOOOOOOO YOUTUBE BATTLE GOOD
>>695170303>waste of a Sonic CharacterThat's every character, even Sonic himself. This entire franchise is a waste. I'm surprised it even lasted this long.
>>695171412>King Boo gets a blowjob in that death battle because he's Luigi's nemesesKinda puts things in perspective. The Mario franchise is so big that they got multiple sources for major threats. Meanwhile Sonic only has Eggman and Metal.
This song and the fact that Forces let you make your OC was a complete tonal whiplash after the ordinary Sonic Mania and I loved it
>>695169661Too pathetic, weak, and worthless to kill
Is King Boo even a member of Bowser’s army? I thought he was his own villain and just owns a fake bowser skinsuit to fuck with Luigi.
why is sonic forever stuck in the 2000s?
>>695167778but you are hot
>>695172334Because if he doesn’t pander to nostalgia all the time he becomes a bad Mario clone.
In Luigi's Mansion 2, King Boo nearly destroys the universe
>>695168768Doesn't Infinite outright show disdain to friendship meaning it was a matter of personal pride rather than vengeance?
>>695171908He also has Sage who unfortunately was pretty useless (unless they gave her the Titans)
>>695172198>Is King Boo even a member of Bowser’s army?Not really, but they're pals/acquantaces in a similar way Dracula and Death are, but without Death's extreme devotion to Drac.
>>695168758How many times has it happened?Infinite, Zeti, who else?Silver has mostly bounced back
>>695167307Making dragon ball tards melt is always good
>>695172334>Why is Sonic still stuck in the last era of video games when video games were video games?Get out.
>>695171908Sonic has one-off threats from both the modern and classic erasEldritch abominations in the former and standard villains in the latter who are basically inferior Eggmans
>>695161175URNGH
>>695164884I don't think anyone would even want him back.There are more people who would react positively to Mephiles coming back.
>>695168758I think Sage goes a long way in giving Eggman a character to interact with that isn't the Scratch/Grounder dynamic.I'm interested to see how they manage to keep her on Eggman's side, yet keep her "friends" with Sonic.
TIENBROS THEYRE MAKING FUN OF US AGAIN
>>695171905Console Wars are over, move onThere are way more ridiculous franchises that are still alive that should be dead and are a waste, not mentioning them either
>>695170530He's not blocked from getting merch and Sonic Channel shows him around from time to time.
>>695171905Sonic has been on upward swing between Shadow Generations, The Movies, Frontiers, Dream Team, and hell I even think Super Stars was decent.I think the series is finally back on track.
>>695174135Shadow Generations and parts of Frontiers showed signs of Woke rot though. Give it time, Ian and others like him will saturate this IP with so much Western Liberal vitriol that it'll force sega to shelve it.
>>695174135Yeah yeah yeah I remember that's what people said when Colours came out too.
>>695165796heard that song once and i immediately knew i had to play the gameand i didn't give a single shit about sonic before, except for the iconic by this point movie design
Reminder that Infinite survived the Death Battle according to Moro.
>>695167307Haven't taken it seriously since ten gorillion nuke punches Dio. I didn't even care who won that battle but that shit was retarded to anyone whose even had a passing viewing of Jojo.
>>695174583>someone else is buys games based on if they think the music is goodFeels good knowing it's not just me.
>>695173558>There are more people who would react positively to Mephiles coming back.Anon....
>>695171303Why is this so perfect
>>695174978>the game's music is so good that you buy it, despite never playing anything from the genre before
>>695167307I'd say I'm still into it because of the animations but even that has taken a massive nosedive after they went indie, god damn miracle that this episode was the exception
>>695161667Kind of unrelated but I find it funny how the next match-up is so shit it's outright killing Death Battle threads in /co/
>>695176097Nah, /co/ mods are just like that. Despite the fact that people have debated which character would win in a fight since...forever. I honestly dont know why they dont allow the threads.
Why didn't they bring Metal Knuckles into the fight?
For me it's Infinite. Narcissistic, Nihilistic with a wicked sense of humor.
HOLY HEDGEHOGS!!! Is that THE one and only KING BOO??? Huh? What’s that my GHASTLY LORD??? Y-you’re gonna TRAP and BETRAY me in an INFINITE cuck painting to show me what REAL power is?? SPEEDIN’ SHADOWS, Y-you say you’re gonna POSSESS and CONTROL my boss’s ENTIRE mechanical army, forever tainting their PURE, COPPER wiring and PRISTINE code with your OOEY GOOEY ECTOPLASM like they’re nothing more than CHEAP, SHODDY, USED UP WHORES?????? EEEHHHHHHHHH????? T-TRAILBLAZING TAILS, y-you’re gonna use the Phantom Ruby to give me pair of FAT, SWINGING tits and a PLUMP FAT ASS that’s going to get RAILED and SLAMMED endlessly by an INFINITE amount of pent up THWOMPS on top of the CRUSHED RUBBLE of my own teammates, all while having the ENTIRE Sonic crew watch and laugh at me???? Golly…what else can I say except…YABBA DABBA DOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! IM SUCH A WEAK KEK!!!!
>>695176314No really how the fuck is he supposed to get back up there? The master emerald might be getting raped by Rouge right now for all we know.
>>695174930he has to live with the shame and memes.fate worse than death
>>695176440>I'm the tallest of mountains/I am the roughest of waves/I'm the toughest of terrors/I am the darkest of days>Each of these lines could also reference each of Sonic’s rivals that he made illusory copies of with the Phantom Ruby’s power, including Zavok (with his large muscular body), Chaos (with his water-like appearance and his ability to merge with water), Metal Sonic (with his metallic composition and his Metal Madness and Metal Overlord forms in Sonic Heroes), and Shadow (with his name being “Shadow” and his status as a founding and recurring member of Team Dark), respectively.
>>695172334The furry community as a whole is a 2000s thing really
I genuinely cannot believe that people even ironically like InfiniteWhat a shit awful characterNot even a character
>>695177217You're just stupid, that's all
>>695177217His whole thing is that he is a faker. The Phantom Ruby's whole gimmick is that it can only mess with your mind. It basically lies to you and that is all it does.
>>695177356So he's like batman wearing the bat costume, trying to strike fear into his enemies? I can respect that.
Infinite was supposed to be everything Mephiles is not. ALSO, why the FUCK was Infintie on Team Eggman despite Eggman also teaming up with Shadow, Gemerl, and so many other fuckers?
>>695175425I bought Shovel Knight because I heard "of Devious Machinations". Bought the game a few days after and ever since I used this as an indicator of if Id like a game. Most recent game I did it with was Pizza Tower after hearing "War" and I felt good about buying that one too. Also did it with Final Fantasy 8. I should have known this since one of my favorite games ever that even got me into gaming was Sonic 3 and the OST there is phenomenal. Same with Mario 64 which I still think Dire Dire Docks is the best track in a 3D Mario game (but the Galaxy games have tracks that I think rival it). Shovel Knight song: https://youtu.be/fqWetH8EpNgPizza Tower song:https://youtu.be/SiCTsIsvcK8
>>695177502I got suckered into playing Bravely Default, which I absolutely did not want to play, but I was listening to the OST over and over and just wanted to experience it in-game to rid myself of my sick fascination.
>>695177425Not in the slightest. He is trying to look powerful but is just a nobody. Everyone think's he is a joke, in and out of universe.
>>695176471That is not going to fit inside her
>>695177356>The Phantom Ruby's whole gimmick is that it can only mess with your mind.They say that, but those false realities were also capable of causing genuine harm to the person under effect. Keep in mind Infinite LITERALLY spawned in the Sun to come crashing down, don't know why that wasn't shown in the fight.
>>695177597I chalk that up to the atrocious writing of Forces and every pre-Frontiers game.The lyrics are the best written parts of Forces. Like I can actually feel something for the Avatar with those stage themes. Also I always thought it was "In the distance I see the light of home," but apaprently it's "hope". That's dull.
>>695177714Because it isnt fucking REAL. Its called the PHANTOM RUBY because its all an illusion.
>>695177797>Because it isnt fucking REAL. Its called the PHANTOM RUBY because its all an illusion.You fucking FOOL.
>>695176458Yup I remember this episode.
>>695177797Your mind makes it real. It's like how Joker's Model gun in the Metaverse of Persona 5 can actually kill peopleShadows.
>>695177957So...if I ignore it then its powerless. Sure seems like a powerless rock to me.
I forget, did Eggman create the Phantom Ruby or was it discovered? And it creates a false virtual reality, except it's real? Like it can make fake illusions except everyone can see and feel it in the real world. Didn't it only teleport Sonic around in Sonic Mania?
>>695178067He found the Phantom Ruby and made Phantom Ruby copies
Would Donkey Kong be immune to the Ruby's powers since he's too dumb to be hypnotized?
>Sonic has been voiced a two black men before>Movies Knuckles has been voiced a black man>Knuckes themes are rap songs>The guy who sings Shadow's themes in SA2 is Black (Everett Bradley)Sonic is Black Coded.
>>695178330Pretty sure only Knuckles is black
>>695177714I genuinely hate how Sonic team completely fucked up what the entire concept the Phantom Ruby should have been, all because they wanted their High Stake Gritty Eggman War plot. A gem that creates illusions that are so real that they hurt you, in its most reductive state, is the ability to literally manifest anything into existence. Fake or not, that ability is genuinely a threat to you, and just saying "it's an illusion" has shown to not dispel it or make it lose its power over you, so the fact it's an illusion is completely pointless. The Phantom Ruby should have given the power to warp people's minds, to lock them in a hell of the user's creation. This is effectively what Null Space was trying to be, except it literally physically manifests you in a different dimension where nothing exists, and the way Sonic effectively escapes from it is through willpower, something that's meant to be a hard counter to a power that literally overtakes your mind. So why does Null Space get fucking erased with a double boost, but the manifestation of the sun crashing down to scorch everyone to death doesn't? Why is Sonic Team so fucking bad at handling basic fantasy powers?The only tragedy to Infinite is that everyone knew the potential that Sonic Team fumbled, which is effectively the fanbase's reaction to every flop produced by SEGA.
>>695177425More like Mysterio but without the charisma
>>695177714>don't know why that wasn't shown in the fight.Time limitations Even if the sun was made the script would have to dictate Infinite being out of the picture to isolate the Phantom Ruby regardless
>>695179153That overpowered, huh? Props to Mr. Thwomp.
By making Thwomp stomp Infinite, that means Thwomp stomps the entire Sonic franchise
>>695178723they broke out of nullspace. maybe sonic and avatar would survive with double boost and everyone else wouldn't to the sun.
>>695179354But the thwomp was only effective because of the increased gravity
>>695179843Doesn't matter, it shows that any form of crushing can kill the entire Sonic universe
*THUMP* *THUMP* *THUMP* *THUMP* *THUMP* *THUMP* *THUMP* *THUMP*URGH! URGH! URGH! URGH! URGH! URGH! URGH! URGH! URGH! URGH! URGH! URGH!
>>695180328>YOU HAVE FOUGHT MACHINES AND GODS. THEY WERE MIGHTY. THEY WERE FINITE!He wasn't even worth a cool reference...
Can Final Hazard beat Dry Bowser? The Ark is like 10x bigger than the Death Egg, so I'd assume the Eclipse Cannon is way stronger than Final Egg Blaster. Not to mention that it's literally fused with the Biolizard.
>>695180832Wait I just fucking realized this guy could probably fuse with Metal Overlord holy fuark
>>695180832It's funny how Finalhazard is a huge threat in SA2, but in Sonic X, Sonic and Shadow curbstomp his ass. Stoping the Ark itself from crashing was harder and instead of Shadow running out of power because he couldn't handle going Super, Shadow in X intentionally takes off his limiters.
>>695178585Knuckles is red, get your eyes checked.
>>695163410Agreed but I like how it matches up with Mania's final boss
Was Bowser vs Eggman that good animation wise? I've heard nothing but praise even from /v/
>>695178723It's Buddhist shit, anon. None of it makes any sense to Sonic Team, let alone any of us.
>>695180832Is Dry Bowser stronger or weaker than regular Bowser?
>>695181284Finalhazard is really only dangerous because it was essentially the guidance system for a fucking colony drop. In terms of what it could actually do to defend itself, it was kinda low-tier. Tge biggest problem was using Chaos Control on something that huge. That's what exhausted Super Shadow.
>>695181794Here you go.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwNkKrsHVcYAlso did this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-5gpW4sgHE
I thought for sure there would be an Infinite fight after Sunset Heights, with Infinite being pissed because Shadow doesn't even know who the fuck he is at this point.Imagine the butthurt of Infinite getting stomped by Shadow twice and Shadow not even knowing who he is both times.
>>695182231>Mephiles: Welcome to the Club, pal.
>>695182014Alright that was actually kino as hell I'll admit it
>>695178723>The Phantom Ruby should have given the power to warp people's minds, to lock them in a hell of the user's creation.If you want to see that concept done fantastically, check this video out: https://youtu.be/avyx9_Qh1hU
>>695182014dumb question but why was the death egg turned into a Mario block?
>>695183860That second shot from Bowser Jr. that Eggman dodged near the end was actually aiming at the Death Egg
>Infinite sends Bowser's army to Null Space>They just warp of there>Eggman: *facepalms*
>>695181873He's generally seen as stronger, as in games where they both appear, Dry Bowser is fought later, usually as a bonus boss.In particular, Dry Bowser shares the Dry Bones' immunity to fireballs.
Bowser should just burn the skin off so his minions and make them an unstoppable army of skeletons
If they haven't nerfed Infinite for no reason, he'd easily beat Bowser's ass by creating 1 trillion Zavoks
>>695185201Remember that one scene in Forces where Shadow's "fighting" by just zooming from one side of the battlefield to the other? I think about that one a lot.
>>695185284That was only 100 Zavoks at most, not 1 trillionAlso that confirms that Shadow is stronger than Sonic since Sonic needed to put in more effort to even beat 1 Zavok.
>>695185394Well, yeah, but what was Shadow doing there? I've been thinking about it for years and can't figure it out.
Raito the composer for Melty Blood and Under Night likes Sonic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tb2Z2uIp5ZE
>>695185656He's boosting sideways, they just forgot to animate the boost aura
>>695161175I'm not much into Sonic, but wasn't he that despite the hype, immediatly jobbed to Shadow? Or am I thinking of another character?
>>695185764That was before Eggman gave him the Phantom Ruby and he was just a mercenary. He defeats Omega, mind fucks Shadow, and then beats Sonic. He doesn't lose until months later.
>>695185764Jobbed to Shadow pre-RubySent Shadow to Green Hill Zone afterwardsBeats SonicBeats SilverBeats Sonic againBeats your OC do not stealJobbed to the real super power of teamwork
>>695185656dancing
>>695185751>>695186012Well, dang, I didn't notice he was bumping Zavoks away. What an incredibly stupid game. I love it so much.
>Heavy King gets added into the fight in a what-if scenario>he just takes the phantom ruby and leaves
>>695185284This Mysterious horizontal flying Shadow.My favorite surreal scene in Sonic Forces. It's so touching.This is something interesting,In this scene, the other characters are fighting with their own unique abilities. Amy uses a hammer, Rouge uses a kick, and Silver uses psychokinesis.Even in this work, it's a rare scene where the characters' personalities come out...Shadow... What the hell is that slide. What does it mean... What the hell is that?Glad Shadow Gens got much better animation than this crap, Forces was so soulless for a 2017 game
>>695186332>Amy uses a hammerNO WE HAVE THATQUICK, WE GOTTA REANIMATE IT WITH TAROT CARDS
>>695186332We'll never know, and maybe it's better that way.
>>695177714>They say that, but those false realities were also capable of causing genuine harm to the person under effect.It's like a placebo. Trick your mind hard enough and your body will respond anyway.
>>695185920>Beats Sonic>Beats Silver>Beats Sonic again>Beats your OC do not stealInfinite's a fucking fraud carried by cutscene magic. It was a mistake to make him a recurring boss instead of just having one fight at the end of the game. Because having to beat his piss easy boss fights only for him to go "*huff* *huff* Erm, I wasn't actually trying. Nothing personnel, kid." while the game tries to fool you into thinking he's a serious threat was just sorry
>>695186817>I-it doesn't count because cutsceneVergil owned your ass the first time

>>695187010Easily the one of the worst episodes, right up there with Toph vs Gaara
>>695181010Metal Overlord could've just copied Dry Bowsers data. Really when you think about it Metal Sonic in general is really fucking busted if he isn't constrained by x writer.
>>695167307I stopped when they somehow declared a Fire Emblem character can move at mach speed and hit as hard as a nuke
>>695186898The difference is that Vergil is actually as challenging a boss as the cutscenes imply
>>695187225>>695187010This one was also retarded.
>>695161175>proceeds to get folded like an omelet by an untransformed Sonic and a literal who that he gave mild PTSD to in the end.Nigga wasn't even worth a Super Sonic.
>>695187490Look man, my OC I specifically created whose name is xXxShadowEdge123xXx is canonically stronger than even Hyper Sonic, don't need Super Sonic
>>695187010Was this the one with Scout deflecting bullets with bonk?
>>695186817>Infinite's a fucking fraud carried by cutscene magic.Welcome to most vidya rivals. It's hard to make a rival work in a medium where the player is always expected to win.
>>695177217What's with the ntr smile?
>>695187842There's a reason the soldiers no longer point guns at Maria
>>695165564Don't do it.https://youtu.be/sQf6W9gzruk?si=1FLkFtMUlPfdn6VT
Sunny side vista level from Forces in Shadows game kinda sucks?
Infinite should have pulled a Doom and taken Shadow to Radical Highway a million times. Shadow would truly break.
Infinite should have raped Shadow physically
>>695167307>open episode>skip to fight>if the character I like didn't win, it's shit>ignore results
>>695188992>he didn't remember to leave a dislike
They've been getting a lot of fanart recently
>>695189642Eggman killed bowser first, he just has skelly hax
>>695189642I hope we eventually get another Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games so we can see cannon interactions between these two
Sportacus vs Yujiro Hanma is going to be based honestly
>>695189642They already had fanart before the episode, its just that the amount has increased because artists were given new material to work with albeit unofficialThere's also outright fanfics being made based on Bowser vs Eggman and the intepretations of the Eggman Empire side discussing the fallout as if it was sports (Metal Sonic beating up Infinite for screwing up) I haven't seen this much attention and enthuisiasm for a Death Battle since Goku vs Superman 3 inspiring a couple of fanart You can have Bowser and Eggman's sides compete in basically anything and it'd be fun to watch
>Tony Todd would have been the perfect Live Action Black Doom>He died FUCK!
>>695189864A minor gripe I have is Jr. and Sage didn't interact much with each other in the battle, granted Sage couldn't do much because Bowser's side had next to no tech
I'm glad this didn't come out years ago because someone would've made an anal vore meme based on the climax
>>695190291Thing is, Junior's the one who uses the most tech within Bowser's ranksHe has various mechs and is associated hard with the Clown Car that Sage could mess withThe Magic Brush is in a more dubious spot thoughStill I get why that couldn't be fitted in
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPp6iUKYQhw
Can Jr really tank a hit from Super Neo Metal though?
>>695191104He slowed the momentum using his paint and was still knocked out with a broken arm and bloody noseThat's not really "tanking", it's a miracle he survived

>>695176262One of the jannies bet 3k on Eggman and is assblasted about it
>>695176097Jannies weren't taking the threads down this much when one of the competitors last year was literally from the forbidden show.
>a loser from moment one picking up scraps>joins Eggman because he got shoved over>then under Eggman's employment, gets shit rocked by Shadow>also called weak>goes full "MY NAME IS NOT IMPORTANT" and becomes a weapon of mass destruction>coasts through towns causing wanton chaos to feel like a big man for once>tried to drop THE SUN on everyone>literally phases out into obscurity in-canonInfinite's the school shooter of the Sonic universe. Love the weak loser.
>>695176262Because they're mostly stealth threads for off topic discussion It's like a /dbs/ colony but not restricted to one series
>>695188907>Dark Gaia can hurt Super Sonic>Even with Light Gaia on his side, Super Sonic was completely drained after that fight and he collapsedThis was always bullshit. Dark Gaia is way stronger than any Titan.
>>695196262This isn't wrong but they're completely inconsistent on how they feel on them. They'll let these threads stay for weeks then suddenly like now they'll go full scorched earth.
>>695196265The End > Dark Gaia > Time Eater > Titans > *Finalhazard > Perfect ChaosSolaris is unusual. 1v1 it's weaker than Dark Gaia, but since it needs to be defeated in three separate time periods, it's not possible for Super Sonic to beat it on its own.
>>695196472I'd put Finalhazard below Perfect Chaos.It doesn't feel any more powerful than the Biolizard and Shadow handled it solo just fine. The difficulty, like in Doomsday Zone, was that they needed to attack it in outer space.
>>695197419The difficulty is that they needed to Chaos Control a massive fucking space colony back to orbit. That's why they needed two guys.
Power creep is one hell of a drug
>>695197998The issue with Metal Overlord is that it just doesn't use weapons and tactics it used in Sonic Heroes. It just hovers over the water and throws bombs.
>>695161175I prefer the bane parody lyrics
>>695199865There's one?
>>695190994>Bowser is FNAF>Metal Sonic is VegetaA highly professional pitch, I see.
>>695190603What do you mean?
>>695201979It was a sojack meme popular on /v/ for some time.
>>695199994There was one, as an image. Too bad I lost it.
>>695162106It doesn't though. This is unironically one of the worst themes in the series. Way too try hard and our of place.
>>695189642They had a few art together here and there but this episodes post fight cutscene pretty much fueled the idea when it showed Orbot, Cubot and Sage would join Bowser's army although Sage is apparently "plotting" somethingThat made people come up with a lot of scenarios, hell their damn subreddit became part Bowser Jr/Sage
>>695203536
>>695177797It's real enough to kill you anon.
>>695178067In Mania, it was actively warping reality and was a big enough power source to fuel one of Eggman's largest mechs ever.
>>695203536>>695203579>plots to marry Bowser Jr and take over the koopa kingdom>turns out to just like being part of a family and gives up on revenge>Eggman directly tells Bowser Jr about the plot and he rejects Sage, forcing her to go back to Eggman
The idea that Eggman would consider his creations is "children" doesn't really fit to me. Dude treated Metal Sonic like shit. Sealed E-123 away. Callously disregards whatever happens to any of his creations. I feel like if Eggman were the type to actually be capable of developing as a person, he wouldn't be trying to create a self-themed amusement park for like twenty games straight.
>>695183814The Maria bit is just shit. It's genuinely not possible to get under Shadow's skin, anyway. That should be obvious to anyone after Shadow's encounters with Mephiles.
>>695180832The Final Egg Blaster blew away an entire star cluster in Sonic Battle. It is astronomically more powerful than the Eclipse Cannon.
>>695204042I think the whole point is that Sage is the first time he's considered one of his creations as anything more than just another tool. People like making fanart of Sage and Metal being his "kids", but it's more like he actually trusts Sage and does things for her that he's not done for any other robot he made before.It's doubtful that Eggman would consider Metal Sonic to be anything more than a toy now.
>>695204430That's how the western writers who are now in charge of the "lore" are gonna insist on writing him now though. Flynn's actually written Eggman as treating Metal Sonic as special before, even though he's historically treated it pretty callously in the games.
>>695167307I've never taken them seriously, but stupid shit like the flagrant DC wank and "1500x FTL NUKE PUNCH DIO" has made them beyond the point of being retarded.
>>695204427So why hasn't Eggman used the final something or other since then?
>>695196265>>695196472Dark Gaia isn't stronger than the Titans in raw power so much as it is that it EATS the power of the Chaos Emeralds. Physically, whilst Dark Gaia can harm Super Sonic, it also goes down in a single bull rush. Meanwhile, all of the Titans have multiple moments where they can instakill Super Sonic through his invincibility which is something no other enemy has ever achieved.
I'm actually surprised not many people called out Death Battle saying Yoshi is comparable to the Death Egg. Usually while people will sometimes agree with them, the way they get to their answers is very questionable.Like they said Bowser survived falling into a star and then a Supernova, you could've just used that instead saying the Death Egg would lose to Yoshi's ass ground pound
>>695204617Even in Flynn's hands, IDW Eggman has treated Metal VERY callously. Hell, he was willing to abandon him along with the planet in the Metal Virus arc. And the entire point of Scrapnik Island and the whole Mecha Sonic thing is that Eggman doesn't care about his old creations once he gets his hands on a new toy. He left Metal's precursor/technical replacement out to fucking dry and never once looked back. And I don't think anyone needs to bring up what Archie Eggman did to M who he ACTUALLY thought of as his daughter.
>>695205045The power of Yoshi's ass transcends fandoms, what can I say.
>>695161175>>695161667>>695170178name a more well-deserved mogging
>>695204939I guess the only reason Eggman hasn't tossed Metal Sonic out completely is because it's the only mechanical Sonic's he's ever made that's gotten as close as it has to the real Sonic's specs. Mecha Sonic underperformed pretty badly.
>>695204689Because Emerl copied the power of that thing ( which was the actual goal- the Final Egg Blaster was one part flex and one part getting Emerl to a level where he could become his perfect weapon) and still lost violently to Sonic when they threw hands. Eggman never bothers rehashing a doomsday device after the initial failure or if he does, then he alters it so heavily it doesn't even resemble the original concept. Dude took over a solar system in like maybe a week at the most generous in Colors, and never decided to do that ever again.
>>695205045It's too retarded for me to bother acknowledging. I'm just too used to the nonsense Death Battle loves spewing out.
>>695167307>>695171741>>695174945>>695187010>>695187243>>695204637You're not supposed to take it seriously, retard.
>>695205045They said Raven nodiffs the fucking White Room in her vid against Jean Grey, so in terms of incompetence saying "Yoshi can take Bowser's cock so he's on Bowser's level" is basically chump change
>>695161175I liked that Robotnick cucked and betrayed this guy before Sanic and his friends had a chance to talk no jutsu him.
>>695172334To pander to ME and the rest of the fanbase who wants Sonic to stay like this.
>>695189812Nope the soulless Olympic Games are dead, we need a Mario & Sonic RPG that’s the only way we’ll get them interacting or a Mario & Sonic Fighting Game with the same story cutscenes as Sonic Battle but not it’s repetitive gameplay
>>695206437Talk-no-Jutsu wouldn't even work - Shadow murdered his entire mercenary band. Infinite would have kept going until he either murdered Shadow and co or he was killed himself.
>>695189864> I haven't seen this much attention and enthuisiasm for a Death Battle since Goku vs Superman 3 inspiring a couple of fanart You can have Bowser and Eggman's sides compete in basically anything and it'd be fun to watchTake notes Nintendo and Sega (AND NO NOT OLYMPIC GAMES) they’re basically sitting on a goldmine
>>695190603>WHIRRRRRRRRRR
>>695207131It's kind of crazy how well mario and sonic characters fit with eachother
>>695188907We Dragon Ball Z for real.
>>695207556Let’s talk about how this roster is orderedWario being the Ultimate Lifeform of MarioWaluigi and Silver as the underdogsDaisy and Blaze as the Tough Girls
>>695191104No, and even in the show he only barely survived.
>>695208846Knuckles poos smelly eggs haha
>>695208846>Knuckles and YoshiOuch
Silver's situation is funny.>Was supposed to be like the third pillar for Sonic alongside Shadow>He's from the future so he's not exactly a convenient character to write around>Also, because the future he's originally from was rewritten, we don't actually know anything about his current situation>Also, Shadow lost a lot of relevance starting from Unleashed so there's that tooLike everything about Silver's kind of an inconvenience overall.
>>695188907You can tell Flynn has been writing these stories because he wants to provide an explanation and connect everything to everything as much as possible.One of the few things he was denied apparently was an explanation on how Eggman got out of the white space. lol
>>695187010https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jr0sdu3uJFg>4:23-5:12>not even a minute long >still infinitely better than that entire video
>>695208846>>695210713Knucklesbros...
>>695211236He really is the Waluigi of Sonic characters
>>695212440Knuckles gradually stopped using his treads to glide because it was racist, isn't it?
honestly I like listening to the autistic breakdowns of the characters more than the fightsI'd rather a live debate format than an animation
>>695211839He sometimes lets on his frustration at all the restrictions. There's probably a lot of things he's not allowed to touch. I imagine that when he got thus gig, he thought he'd really get to run the asylum. I can only imagine hus disappointment at not getting to personally pen Sonic's true origin, or reveal once and for all that the mural was the reason that Shadow's a hedgehog.
>>695161667I always thought death battles was just some autist just ranting about the lore between two separate franchises. Does he actually animate a whole battle between the two casts Haloid style?
