Sonic and the Black Knight

[VirusChris]

Shadow looks kickass holding his sword like that! But where's Blaze?

[Solar]

They don't look bad, but I find Shadow's visor kinda silly =/

Also, looks like Tails is a blacksmith or something.

He's just a wannabe toughguy.

[Protoman Blues]

Indeed, I see no Blaze!

Yeah, Tails was confirmed to be a blacksmith of some sort a lil while ago. A shame, though. I could have seen him working perhaps as "Galahad" or something to that effect. I mean, if they've already done a lot of silliness thus far (Blaze is supposedly "Joan of Arc" now, which makes even LESS sense!), why not, I say?   

Any way...it still weirds me out quite a bit that I'm actually looking forward to playing this game, in spite of my overall pessimism reserved for modern Sonic games that aren't on a portable system.

Ah well....

Perhaps my blind optimism is getting to you, Ben?   

[Waifu]

Blaze, Joan of Arc? That may work if Blaze was a crazy french girl who hears voices who tell her to go off into battle against the English and succeed.

[STM]

Never mind the whole... burned at the stake thing... Blaze controlling fire and all.

seeing Tails as a blacksmith makes me realize how much Sonic Adventure has ruined his character. i am sick an tired of him being some machine wiz / genius. whatever happened to just being Sonic's pal who follows him around and gives him a boost?

i've come to the conclusion that i flat out despise this game's concept. it the dumbest thing i've seen in a while. seeing Sonic in a full suit of armor was the clincher, really. i can only hope that the gameplay is alright.

[Protoman Blues]

But he's the KNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGHTTT OF THE WIND!   

Besides, at least they're honest that this game is a fairy tale!  LoL, it's plot sounds better to me than most of the others.

Well to be fair, the old games did a pretty poor job of portraying the characters too (mostly due to there being no dialog). In S3&K, Knux went around snickering and chuckling like a fool while setting traps for you (instead of, y'know, actually fighting you). He seemed more like some village idiot Eggman hired to pull pranks on you than a concerned protector of the master emerald (until hidden palace where he actually fought you...which wasn't until the end of the game).

Tails himself was always a "machine whiz" since the beginning (hence the "repaired" tornado at the end of Sonic 2, the spaceship from STF, the sub from one of the GG games, etc.). It is only since SA1 that they focused on the genius aspect more (probably due to that fact that they actually added dialog).

To me, it's just mostly due to Sonic Team's general poor writing skills and character portrayal.

And in all honesty, Tails is seen as annoying not only due to the fact that he's all "techy", but also because he was such a poor sidekick (gameplay-wise at least). I can't tell you how many people I knew hated him way before SA1 was even a thought.

Sonic Team's quality control is a fairy tale.

Then they made Amy more crushy-crushy on Sonic when they added dialouge, I never really liked her high-piched VA'ing, but the design is likeable at least.

Even though she appeared to be in CD, acting like that one princess. (As to Split Mushroom: Take a wild guess!)

[Protoman Blues]

Sonic Team's quality control is a fairy tale.

That's why this game cannot possibly fail!   

[Satoryu]

appeared to be?

[Gaia]

appeared to be?

Well, Haven't see Amy that much in the stages, she was kidnapped and made her debut, but apparently I quite missed (not focused enough) her frequently in some stages.

[Solar]

Hey look, it's Blaze Percival.

Really now... I honestly find these visors silly. at least Super Sonic has a full damn helmet.

[Hypershell]

They look fine, I'm just wondering how they stay on the characters' faces.

Game logic, or they're secretly attached to their heads.

Same way the back of Blaze's ears are randomly armored.

[Protoman Blues]

BURN IN THE FIRES OF SIR PERCIVAL!

Say,... anyone ever read the Tripods Book series?

[Kieran]

Um.... in like fifth grade I think.

Needless to say I don't remember much of them.

[Flame]

typical giant 3 legged alien robot invasion. they have these whip like tentacles too. they pick a person up and basically take them inside the dome on top of the legs and attach this helmet on their heads. the helmets are integrated with their skulls. later, when the people (who wernt captured) find out how to remove them, they instead start using on the humans these metal plates that go directly over the skull inside the head.

Nexus' comment reminded me of that.
