Thanks for checking it out. It’s a rough dub and the story is somewhat nonlinear, but Sonic Adventure was rated E for Everyone and so having a story like that slip past my parents was really formative for my childhood.
And thanks! Cammy is always my pick when it’s an option.
Yeah I only really played the first couple of sonics for brief periods on other peoples’ systems and later a bit of half hearted emulation, so I only got the general vibe of “big robot man is enslaving / killing the animals and we save them” but I was just chatting about this little revelation with said partner who is a much more well rounded gamer. She pointed out a bunch of stuff that helped it all click into place for me.
Cammy is dope. I’m terrible at fighting games lol, I love watching tournaments with good commentators though and I’ve learned how they work, how to appreciate good play. etc etc. Kinda sucks that I was only really introduced to “real” fighting games (ie not just spamming basic attacks in MK) when SF4 dropped. Mostly stopped gaming not long after that, but I still enjoy high level play and watching a few of the scene OGs do variety streaming etc.
I don’t even know about sonic at all and now I’m mad about it. Fuck G.U.N.
Indeed. Here’s the super dark backstory they refused to adapt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtLsYuzCkZo
Woah holy shit. Thank you for sharing.
I may have to re-evaluate my general attitude towards extreme sonic fans. That is gnarly.
Sidenote: cool username and profile pic. my partner in crime is/was a Cammy main.
