Sonic x Shadow Generations spoilers beneath the cut, specifically about Maria-
I really like that the game goes out of its way to show that Shadow is different than he was. He doesn't slide back into his old ways with Maria like a glove. She's almost sickeningly naïve at times, and you can tell that there's an undercurrent of disbelief that Shadow feels whenever she brings it up.
Hell, he even runs away when confronted with the literal light of positivity radiating from her.
But then he comes back to her after making up his mind. Striking a balance between his darker nature and the light she wants for him. In the final bossfight, Shadow's particle effects that represent his power are a combination of her yellow light and his own inky black-red darkness. Balance.
Shadow used to hang off Maria's every word as unerring truth. He even went so far as to destroy the world for her because she thought that was what she wanted.
But now? He's started seeing her as a person. Not an idol. Not that shadowy martyr dying over and over again in his dreams. A person.
Not a symbol of his better self or lost innocence or any of that, but someone who loves him and would like to see the best for him.
A part of him. Not all of him.

i don't get all the discourse surrounding the sonic generations rewrite, it's not like the original game had any compelling character interactions, so the rewrite doesn't ruin that, not to say that half of the lines stayed the same while the other half practically has the same meaning, so i really don't understand why people feel so strongly one way or the other (aside from all that, i'm really glad they added sonic responding to the lines his friends say when they get rescued instead of just saying nothing like in the original)
#like yeah it wasn't really necessary but that's because both don't have a whole lot to offer anyway#ian flynn isn't really my favorite writer this series has had but he's good and the way people are talking about him is really odd#the sonic fandom is so negative about everything#like i assure you it's not that deep seriously#sonic#sth#sth fandom#sonic fandom#sonic the hedgehog#sonic the hedghog fandom#sonic generations#sonic x shadow generations#ian flynn#sonic games#sonic rewrite#fandom#discourse#sxs generations#sonic x shadow gens#sonic x shadow spoilers#sxs gens spoilers#sxsg#sxsg spoilers#rewrite#sonic shadow generations#sonic spoilers#sonic fans#fandom discourse#shadow generations#shadow gens

Sonic apparently forgot that the Time Stones are confined to the Little Planet, which appears over Never Lake just once a year. If the Time Eater took them, either only the Little Planet would be affected or every level in Gens would be a Bad Future version, not just Stardust Speedway.
Sonic also allegedly remembers the events of '06, which are implied to be canon by the presence of Crisis City. '06 asserts that the Chaos Emeralds can facilitate time travel, so if anything, he should be questioning whether the Time Eater is using the Emeralds. That would be the reasonable inference, given that the two Sonics have been reclaiming the Emeralds at the same time they've been restoring the past.
Nah. Time Stones.

My Shadow Gens playthrough today consisted of my heart beating out of my chest during Memphis Tennessee, failing to fly, and getting hung up on very stupid parts of Act 1 and 2 of the Boss because I lost the wings. :] 👍 I blame my lack of gaming skills entirely. Next up is the final boss and I fear for my life but I'm SOOOOOOOO excited!
Also, quick note on Mephiles! Hearing his new VA was a bit jarring, but I definitely don't hate it. It's different, but like a good different, you know? I kinda like it. :)
Also MARIA AND SHADOW CONTINUING TO BREAK MY HEART WITH EVERY INTERACTION THEY HAVE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
OH! And I also got to the cutscene with Sonic today! And let me tell you, I was absolutely vibrating!!!! That entire reference to the "FAKER" scene made me so happy :D

. . . So what if someone tried to clone Maria for their own malicious intent?
This is just kind of a small thing I'm thinking of (totally not thinking of an entire saga for it)
So let's paint a picture. Shadow learns there is a group of evil individuals trying to destroy Earth. Maybe they are aliens like the black arms but different in the fact they are creatures that are made with memories. And one if these aliens has memories of Maria and looks like her.
Now Shadow has to struggle with the fact he has to fight with the face of his dear friend and sibling in order to protect the Earth.
Idk, I just feel like this should be a thing. If it is, someone link me to it. If not . . .

sorry I've been inactive. I should've returned sooner since I said I'd be gone until I beat Shadow Generations, which I did on Tuesday. I've just been gravitating more towards Bluesky nowadays, y'know?
but now let's talk spoilers
DUDE THIS IS THE BEST SONIC GAME. PERIOD. THAT FUCKING MEPHILES FIGHT??? OH MY GOD?!?!?!
THE WAY HIS VOICE IS LESS EDGY BECAUSE HE'S DESPERATE AND FULL OF FEAR. IT'S LEGENDARY. ABSOLUTELY LEGENDARY. THE "I WANT TO EXIST" LINE IS SO WELL DELIVERED OH MY GOD.
also I s-ranked all of sunset heights

have you seen squidow yet and if so… what are your thoughts on him (from the new Sonic x shadow generations trailer)
of COURSE i've seen squidow, I was screaming and howling about that trailer, I was goddamn beside myself, i was losing my whole mind!
I have so many thoughts and the majority of them are some variation of "HGKJDHGJKHDKFGHDFGDFKJHGDJKRHGKJHKGJVNSDKJGNSG??????RHFSKJGHKHGKJEHHGJK!!!!!?!??!?!!!GJDKFGHDFJGHJFD" so y'know, i dunno if that's worth a share.
I saw Omega in there. I'm happy. I'm happy. :)

(Re: https://www.tumblr.com/skaruresonic/764957411361669120/isnt-it-shadow-and-sonic-canon-tho?source=share)
I think they're asking about Sonadow Generations.
The game, or the ship?
Either way, I'm not terribly happy about the rewrites... Or Maria functioning as Shadow's morality pet, or SxS Gens doubling and tripling down on the whole narrative emphasis on Shadow's blood. We've already seen this stuff before. Why are we repeating it for a fourth time? also come on Omega, the Black Arms don't "grow" their own weaponry, only the burrowing worm does that
But since I haven't played it yet, I should probably shelve my rants for another time reserve judgment until I can.
