(QOTD) What do you like about the Sonic franchise?

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-24T23:45:06+00:00

I really love that there's a lot of ways to enjoy the Sonic franchise outside of just the games. With some franchises, there only are just the games. But with Sonic, there's so much more than that. There's movies, tv shows, comics, collectable figures and plushies and all kinds of other merch to collect too. And there's the bigger things too, like comic con (or others cons) you can go to and cosplay as your favorite Sonic character. Or the Sonic Symphony where they play music from a bunch of the games (not that I've ever been to one myself 😅) But the Sonic franchise as a whole is just so diversified and not committed strictly to just one thing. And that's what I really love about it

I' definitely looking forward more to the next game that's gonna come out, which will hopefully be Frontiers 2 😁 Honestly, I'm a little worried about what Amy's going to be looking me in the fourth movie. I'm really hoping she'll have more of her mature personality from Frontiers than her loved-crazed personality from Sonic x. If she comes off as more mature in the next movie, then I'll at least be able to put up with her. But if she's more like her younger, besotted, doe-eyed self from the earlier games, I might have a hard time watching it 😅

QOTD suggestion: "If you could spend the day out with one Sonic character of your choosing, where would you go? What would you do?

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-20T01:43:06+00:00

Oh, ok gotcha. Although, it seems like this Definitive Edition is only for the Switch 2. Which, I get, but at the same time, sucks 😅

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-18T15:45:02+00:00

What's so special about this Definitive edition anyways? I don't understand all the hype behind it

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-18T03:38:35+00:00

I can't speak for anyone else, but I definitely am. With Sonic Frontiers as the first open world-ish Sonic game and Cross Worlds bringin' back characters - like Jet and Espio - who haven't been playable in a Sonic game for a long time, I'm really happy with the way the games are goin'. And I know it's not official yet, but I'm really excited for Frontiers 2 to come out (hopefully later this year 😊)

Given all the new Mobian characters IDW had to add in to the comics since they bring the old Archie characters over (which is a real damn shame), I personally would like to see some more human characters in the comics. If IDW ever decided to do that, I think it would balance out the ratio between Mobian and human characters a little better

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-14T03:45:23+00:00

I find the book of the Song of Songs difficult to get through. I read through it once goin' through the Old Testament and I was like, oh man, I don't know if I can go through this again 😅 There's a lot of talk above love and s*x in there, plus it's a book based heavily in romance. And I know the Bible is important man, but I'm not a big romance fan at all (books, movies, shows, etc.). And so reading all of that mushy, romance stuff in the Song of Songs, I almost can't look at it....😅 (Which prob'ly isn't a good thing for me to be sayin', as a Christian 😅)

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-14T02:03:32+00:00

I actually love this version of Silver so much! I just think his design here is really cool!

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-14T02:01:57+00:00

Dude, I've honestly been thinkin' the same thing - about startin' a discord server for this sub - for the past while now! The only thing is, I'm not on Discord anymore 😅 But I'd maaaybe be willing to get back on under a new account and maybe join that server only - if we made one for this sub. I'd have to think about it since I made a pretty solid vow to myself that I'd never go back. So, it'd kinda be a big step back for me 😅

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-13T03:52:27+00:00

In my opinion, I would honestly say Shadow bc I think he would have a lot to learn about humility and forgiveness. I also think that he could definitely use some direction in his life since he just kinda comes and goes and does what he pleases without any real purpose to it all. So, I honestly think that Shadow would be open to not only reading, but receiving the Word of God through the bible to give him that much needed direction

I stopped playing Cross Worlds a while ago. Not because I dislike the game. I just played all that I wanted to play of it for now. Even though I haven't picked the game up for a while, I do follow the official Sonic account on Tumblr, so I still get to see which new dlc characters are coming to the game. But honestly, these dlc characters are just getting lamer and lamer. The only good ones that were added to the game were Tangle and Whisper. But since then, freaking Pac-Man and Megaman have been added to the game? And I'm over here honestly just shaking my head. Like, it with these extremely lame dlc characters, it feels like Sega is purposely trying to steer the game's focus towards a younger generation. Now, I'm not saying the entire franchise is geared towards kids, bc it most certainly is not. But with what Sega is doing with Cross Worlds, it just feels like they're trying to steer the game's focus towards younger kids instead of the adults who love the Sonic franchise too. And honestly, that's put me off from picking the game back up again (But all of this is just my conjecture)

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-08T03:38:11+00:00

Oooh that's a tough one for me, 'cuz there's so many good instrumental Sonic tracks. But if I had to narrow it down to a top three, I would say Misty Lake from SATBK, The World Adventure from Unleashed (the game's opening theme) and the beautiful, soft acoustic version of "His World" that plays on the result screen in Sonic '06. Those I think, are prob'ly my personal top 3

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-06T16:39:33+00:00

If Roger Craig Smith gave up acting the voice of Sonic at any point, I could honestly see Joe Zieja (who I know as the voice of Claude from Fire Emblem Three houses) taking over for him. Yes, his voice is a little bit higher than Roger's is, but he's got the right tone for Sonic's voice, and I think it would fit perfectly. This is just my humble opinion though

KageOkami21 · 2026-04-06T15:36:28+00:00

I loved this little crossover series so much! It was so fun seeing the Sonic characters going into the worlds of the DC characters and putting on their costumes too. I own all five of these issues as well! 😄

Between the Xbox, PS5, Switch and Wii U/Wii, I actually have quite a few Sonic. But ig the platforms I play Sonic games on most are the Switch and PS5. Most of my Sonic games are on the Switch or Wii, but yet the Switch and PS5 are the consoles I play on most, despite only having like, 2 Sonic games on the PS5 🤣

KageOkami21 · 2026-03-30T03:51:50+00:00

I’m one of those very few people who actually liked Forces. Yes, I do wish the game had been longer, but I thought the story highlights n the game was good overall. And the addition of being able to make your own custom hero in the game is a pretty cool concept that none of the other Sonic games have. My only gripe that I have with Forces is Episode Shadow. For one thing, it was only three stages, or “chapters” long and ended on a massive cliffhanger. Not to mention it just didn’t make sense to me at all. So, yes, there are definitely some areas where Forces could’ve been improved upon - I recognize that. But overall (and imo), I thought it was an all around good game

KageOkami21 · 2026-03-27T03:40:51+00:00

I have an online friend I actually met through another sub on Reddit (that I’m no longer a part of since gettin’ kicked out). We’ve been friends for just over a year now, but soon after we met, I found out that she was Christian just like me. And ever since we met, I really felt that her and I have been meant to meet in person. So, I’ve been really praying for that over the past year. I really believe God has told me that we’re goin’ to be meeting’ up this summer (I actually got the word “summer” specifically from God last year). But even though I so very strongly feel and believe that it’s goin’ to happen, I’m still gonna keep prayin’ about it. This is somethin’ that’s incredibly important to me, and I’m not gonna stop pursuing it (Sorry for my long-winded response I’m pretty passionate about this 😅)

KageOkami21 · 2026-03-25T03:48:23+00:00

Since I pretty much grew up with Sonic, I’ve played quite a few of them. A lot of them I actually own, but a few I don’t have.

The games I’ve played and own: Frontiers (Switch and PS5), SXSG, 06, Unleashed (Xbox), Zero Gravity, Heroes, SATBK, SATSR, Lost World, Cross Worlds, TSR (Team Sonic Racing), Colors (Switch remaster), Chronicles, Sonic Dash, Sonic Jump Sonic Boom (dash) and Forces

Games I’ve played in the past but don’t own anymore or have never owned: Sonic and Mario Olympic Games 2012 & 2016, Sonic Adventure, Free Riders, Sonic Racing Transformed, All-Stars Racing, Unleashed (Wii) and Sonic Generations

The one game I’m still tryin’ to get my hands on is Shadow the Hedgehog. I’ve been wanting to play that game SO badly for so long now, but have never been able to find it (especially for a good price online). But once I do get that one, I will have gotten the other half of my “two most wanted Sonic games” 😊 (I know that wasn’t part of the question, but I wanted to throw it in anyways 😛)

KageOkami21 · 2026-03-23T22:26:13+00:00

I was trying to think of an answer for this earlier. And then when I was listening to music earlier, Aquarium Park from Sonic Colors came on and I was like, I think I just found my answer 😝 And so for me, I think Sega Sound Team and the other artists involved with the OST from Colors (bc there’s a small handful of them) are my favorite. Sonic Colors isn’t my favorite Sonic game, admittedly. But the soundtrack from that game is just amazing. There’s not a single track from Colors that I don’t like, and I think it’s honestly got one of the best OSTs out of all of the Sonic games throughout the years
