        ||.. so what if i just based my sonic underground verse on .  . . this lovely WIP comic by starrjoy that y’all should totally check out bc i adore it

#(at least partly) #(ik i'm half-tempted to reference underground in my sonic's origin but i haven't committed to that ;;;) #(the potential of him having sibs he never met tho... that's dope) #(but anyways back to topic also the idea of prime!sonic to some degree being tied back to underground ahdjkaksab) #(we know nothing abt christmas island except that it's based on REAL christmas island) #(abfksabksab anyways hi hello i kust want an underground verse ultimately) #(where the triplets grew up w their mother for a while BEFORE getting separated n' it being this whole mystery) #(also sonic being called to a mystery voice n' potentially causing the split and some tragedy i love that) #(prince!sonic lemme here it in the back) #⸨ * OOC ⸩ — he was never actually called a rodent in the games but yknow .

Sonic Frontiers DLC dropped and since then I've been consumed and obsessed to put it lightly, that on spare times at work I stopped to doodle down what I thought The End could've been like 👀👉👈

More thoughts in depth about the final boss after the cut:

Okay so here's the thing, I went into the final battle expecting it to be like the one from the base game but with, more ( like most of us did I assume). The fact is, while technically it was like that, I found myself missing some details I liked from the original one, such as obviously The End's speech and the overall vibe... heck I made a three pages comic about it, so SOMETHING was done right there, otherwise it wouldn't have me inspired at all.

The new final battle was still a great spectacle to me, mind you! It genuinely hyped me through the whole run! I simply was expecting The End to eventually reveal it's...not even true form I guess, because it says to have multiple incarnations and I think that kind of makes sense. But A different form from the gigantic moon would've been pretty dope to see nontheless. From the trailer I was sure that the "seven arms possessed Supreme" was gonna take the place of regular Supreme. I didn't quite get why The End would use Supreme again since the first time clearly didn't work..? I mean the battle was still amazing but frankly there are many choices in the story I didn't understand djfhgdg... I hope the next title puts some more effort on the story too because they are really *so close*!

I started to think that, since the game proposes you as island/level bosses the Titans... as something different (as it usually works for the final battles in sonic games) it could have worked that The End was gonna fight Sonic at his level, almost his size. I mean the game is clearly full of anime references so this wouldn't have been that much weird to see lmao.

The last picture in this post was actually the first bunch of sketches I did before the release of the DLC. At first I imagined The End as like, an alien death's-head hawkmoth (Acherontia atropos if u prefer) that could shapeshift in different adversaries based on Sonic's memories, right because of its speech to him about "seeing into his mind" and all his past challenges. I wanted also to add another anime influence on his appearence by making it kind of like the Anti-Spiral boss from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann.

The sketches AFTER the DLC are also various other ideas from the brainrot sjghdf, it's mostly The End picking the Ancients' technology design as mockery, and Sonic going all-out continues to be a thing because that genuinely slapped👀👀👀

im going to lose my mind

so we have our map of calorum for trw, right?

dope af. we love it. wait a second, is that...

no fucking way

A BEEHIVE????

there are so many implications here. are there bees???? do they occupy the same role as the Great Beasts of Carn? how BIG ARE THEY? HOW ARE HONEY PEOPLE BORN? IS THERE MEAD???

wild speculation under the cut

it’s on the Ceresian border of Candia, off the coast of the Dairy Sea. the land of milk and honey. *badum tsssh*

i would’ve guessed it’d be on the Fructeran border, bc fruits need pollination to live, but i think i know why it’s not

each of the nations is loosely based off of a real place. dairy islands = scotland, fructera = france, etc. but usually the similarity is only surface-level - accents, social attitudes, sometimes titles, etc.

but with Ceresia, Brennan went HARD on the similarities to Italy, and more specifically ancient Rome. Senator, Imperator, Tribune. hell, Ciabatta’s whole storyline in ACOC could be mapped 1:1 onto countless tyrants in Roman history.  soldier distinguishes himself, becomes a war hero, moves up the ranks of the military, accrues an army more loyal to him than to whoever’s ruling at the time, and either tries to take over there, or waits until retirement to climb the cursus honorum in peacetime under promises to the commonfolk of a better life, then becomes dictator.

I’m majoring in Classics (a shitty name, I know, but basically ancient Mediterranean history & lit). this cycle happens over, and over, and over again. Focaccia probably did it before him.

the reason I bring this up is that there’s a type of tomb used for elites & rich people that originated in ancient Greece but came back into style a little bit in Roman times called a tholos. what does it look like?

a giant fucking beehive.

it’s usually buried more thoroughly, but the inside remains the same

could this be (hehe bee) a complete coincide? yes. is it still cool? yes.

[vaguely-concerned]

I’m playing ruined king (it was finally on sale on xbox and holy shit it’s so fun!!!!), and a bunch of the random NPCs in the background are wearing the same sort of serape/cloak style* as graves does. it fills my heart with so much joy that graves in large part just looks like any other bilgewater working class boy ambling around the harbour looking for work or someone to rob hahaha. the young tfgraves skins have some fashion swag:

(malik’s outfit is something quite similar to what TF is wearing here, notably, so that seems to also be an existing fashion style in the serpent isles to this day)

but current day graves really does dress mostly like bilgewater joe schmoe except that he gets his details more lovingly rendered and his shirt is unfathomably tight, and I love that for him

he’s iconic, is what he is. who needs to be elaborately overdesigned when you can just become main character through sheer heedless strength of personality (and also gay longing, that’s the secret spice)

(this game is only impressing on me further that bilgewater is a fucking BANGER of a setting, though, I am hoping so hard for it to get the arcane treatment because I think it would be unspeakably cool. that long sweeping shot in the opening from underwater in the white harbour with all the coffins floating and a variant of the bilgewater theme kicking in as we move up to see the entire island over MF’s shoulder!!!)

*I think it’s implied from an npc early on that this style is actually a buhru garment originally -- and that the paylangi are wearing it the wrong way around fhdskjfhas. double hilarity: the npc goes ‘it looks dope tho. so fair enough!’. ah prime bilgewater attitude <3

#league of legends #malcolm graves #ruined king #this game is so much more fun to play than to watch #don't get me wrong it's beautiful but it's a turned based rpg type of thing so the pacing can get very weird for a letsplay #it also makes me so hungry for riot to get their shit together and make more story driven stuff like this for their characters #because honestly this is a delight #it's so GOOD to see mf being the character she's supposed to be especially I love her so much

Mario Kart 8 - Booster Course Pack Wave 6 Speculation/Obsessing

I've always loved the Mario Kart games, but for my money Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the new gold standard for the entire kart-racing genre. It just FEELS SO GOOD to drive these goofy little contraptions around and blow up your friends in psychedelic cartoon worlds.

Booster Course Pack Wave 5 just dropped this week and I'm loving this shit. Squeaky Clean Sprint?! KAMEK?!

This unholy union?!

Of course as awesome as this stuff is, I can't help but think about that one last wave of goodies we're getting at the end of the year. At the very least we know we're getting two new drivers and 8 new-old courses (with 1 or 2 possibly being brand new), but at this point Nintendo hasn't announced any specifics.

It's fun to guess and speculate though! Since we're only guaranteed 2 new drivers (and there's a smaller pool to pull from), I started there.

Prior to the Booster Course Packs adding Birdo, Kamek, Wiggler, and Petey Piranha (all drivers who have appeared in previous MKs), Nintendo added guest characters from non-Mario series like Link, Splatoon Girl, and Isabelle. While it's POSSIBLE they could hit us with someone brand new and/or from a different series, I'm thinking it's more likely they'll pull these last 2 drivers from the existing Kartiverse.

With that in mind, here are the standout possibilities from previous Karts:

DIDDY KONG in Double-Dash!!, Wii, Tour Iconic sidekick/costar of Donkey Kong Country series, and three-time karter (not to mention headlining his OWN kart games). On one hand it's fuckin' crazy to me that he's not already in here, but on the other hand if I can only pick one more Kong, I'd rather have Funky or Dixie 😬sorry didds

HAMMER BRO in Tour I like Hammer Bros, I've always thought of them as Bowser's elite goon squad--hammers hurt and their helmets are dope. On the flipside we already have Koopa-Troopa, Lakitu, Dry Bones, and Kamek, plus 9 Bowser-flavored Koopas. We might already be over koopacity.

MONTY MOLE in Tour This is some goofy left-field shit that I am absolutely into. Not my first choice, but funny, cute and strange enough to be worth it. He a mole driving a car

PEACHETTE in Tour So even though this looks exactly like Peach in a slightly goofier outfit, it's actually Toadette in a powered-up form from New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe.. Identity theft is a crime, Toadette.

PAULINE in Tour Mario's original damsel in distress, Pauline debuted way back on the original Donkey Kong arcade cabinet, but also had a major role in Super Mario Odyssey on the Switch (plus a bunch of handheld DK games in-between). Glamorous singing mayor-lady, cool! Why the fuck not! We better get a New Donk City track if she's added tho

KITSUNE LUIGI in Tour Look I know I gave Peachette a lot of shit for being an obscure power-up (this one hailing from Super Mario 3D Land and World), but at least we can tell this is still Luigi! Plus it'd complement Tanooki Mario and Cat Peach REAL nice. Let me have this. Luigi needs a win. It's not a furry thing (not that there's anything wrong with that!).

POOCHY in Tour This fuckin' guy. I still have acid flashbacks to his levels in Yoshi's Island. Still tho, big ol' dog-thing driving car is hilarious, I'd sign off on his goofy ass

FUNKY KONG in Wii, Tour Finally, another prospect with more than Tour on his Karting resume. Funky Kong fuckin' rules. DKC's resident gearhead, party animal, and big lovable himbo dumbass, this dude gotta come back. Non-negotiable. HE WEARS JORTS... WITH A BELT

DIXIE KONG in Tour The other coolest Kong. Probably technically cooler than Funky. It'd be crazy if both new characters were Kongs, but if they were Funky and Dixie I would shit my pants with joy. Dixie's badass.

NABBIT in Tour This would make sense, but I would also be like "sure why not." Shitty little thieving rabbit-man is fine. Is anyone clamoring for this? No judgement, just curiosity. I got kind of sick of the New Super Mario Bros. series, but I don't speak for the whole fuckin' world.

KING BOB-OMB in Tour HAHAHA YES!!! BIG DUMB ORB MUSTACHE CROWN MAN. I also lost my shit when he showed up in the Mario movie. If B-list bosses like Petey Piranha and King Boo get to drive, let this big fancy idiot. He probably accidentally explodes like a dingaling when he doesn't win.

MEOWSER in Tour Like Kitsune Luigi, this would be a nice complement to Tanooki Mario and Cat Peach, but we already have Bowser Classic, Jr., Dry, and his 7 delightful little punkass shithead kids. Meowser does benefit from reminding me of Kintaro, from my OTHER favorite game series with the initials "MK":

CHARGIN' CHUCK in Tour A different listicle already mentioned his fucking awesome-ass burger'n'fries mobile being the best part of him. I'm trying not to accidentally rip off that listicle COMPLETELY, but I might have. Sorry. I think it was on Hard Times/Hard Drive? CC's beefiness and sporty theming could save him from being another face in the Koopa Krowd, but he's not my first draft pick.

CAPTAIN TOAD in Tour I'm all over the place on this one. El Capitano has his own spin-off games--that's pretty legit! But he's just Toad with some different clothes on... but so is Metal Mario and Cat Peach! Do we need a third Toad? If he's a higher weight class because of his gear, then maybe!

HONEY QUEEN in MK7 Aww, remember Super Mario Galaxy?! I like when lady-characters get to be something besides "skinny human princess." If fricking Petey Piranha can race again, so can this big ol' bee!

PARATROOPA in MKDD!! Ah, our millionth Koopa! Jokes aside, since Paratroopa has ONLY been in Double Dash!! (the one where every driver needed an obvious partner), I bet he's a major longshot. Kamek, Wiggler, and Petey Piranha were all in Tour, so I'm inclined to think Nintendo will be pulling from the Tour roster. But who the hell knows! Here are some other (unlikely) prospects.

R.O.B. in MKDS Between this and his playable debut in Super Smash Bros. Brawl, R.O.B., the (in)famous robot peripheral for the NES/Famicom, was having a little moment in the 2000s. A wave of 1980s nostalgia or a 20th anniversary celebration, maybe? I'm not expecting him to come back again after almost ANOTHER 20 years (Jesus Christ), but I love his kart that makes it look like he has little legs.

PAC-MAN AND OTHER WEIRDOS FROM THE ARCADE COLLABORATION WITH NAMCO in Mario Kart Arcade GP, Arcade GP2, and Arcade GP DX Again, non-Tour to me says longshot, but fuck it would be weird and cool to play as Ms. Pac-Man. Blinky the ghost, one of the Tamagotchis and a happy little arcade drum also made the cut!

Mametchi aka The Cooler Nabbit.

OK he's actually a BIG, SASSY cartoon drum. Still cute. Crazy that the Prince from the Katamari games wasn't playable in these, IMO he'd be perfect and have a deliciously funky, knobby kartamari.

Wait king you can't drop the idea of "ruins of war" and not elaborate 👀👀 did you have any other headcanon on that??

My gut feeling is that the next game will be in Egypt since the GoW 2018 was originally gonna be Egypt, but I'm super into the idea of a DLC back in Greece, like a brief look into what happened without having to commit a full 60hour game to it. Atreus trying to find a connection to his heritage would be so interesting, especially considering Kratos' desire to leave it in the past. I honestly dont think Atreus would be able to resist not checking it out if he had the chance and I'm into the idea that he'd be drawn to Greece naturally since his god powers essentially come from there

I don't honestly have too much for it! It's just a concept. Mostly based on how I thought "Ruins of War" sounded like a really DOPE DLC name

Here's what I do have in mind though

This would set up the next game which... would be in Egypt!

Like you, I also have a gut feeling it's going to be in Egypt. It's a pretty well-known mythology I'd say, about on par with the Norse mythos in terms of general knowledge. I also think the next game will be mostly if not entirely Atreus-led, so, this DLC would be entirely Atreus-led. Greece would be a bit of a pit stop before he reaches Egypt, because the two are VERY close together

We wouldn't know at the start of the DLC that he's headed to Egypt, that would be revealed at the end. We'd just know he's going somewhere and that somewhere was not intended to be Greece

If he's on a boat, which I imagine he is, he's going to have to go right by it. And he would know that! I don't think he'd be planning on stopping there, but like you said, he couldn't resist. It’d start with “we’ll just sail by it” and go to “we’ll just stop at this one tiny island” and increase more and more until you’re exploring the mainland.

2. Angrboda is there

There's not much else to this. Angrboda is there! She would be the companion for the whole DLC. He brought her with him to see the world after spending her entire life in the Ironwood. He's very excited she's there and she's really mesmerized by everything she sees. It's all very cute

Also, speaking of the boat. I’m picturing one large boat he’s actually using to cross the ocean being a bit of a “home base” and a smaller, life boatish boat the player used to navigate around the Grecian shore. Atreus is rowing it of course, and Angrboda is the one sitting in the boat with him. Like Kratos did with Atreus and Freya. There would be a banter that goes like this:

Atreus: *groans*

Angrboda: You okay?

Atreus: Yeah. This is just harder than father made it look.

Angrboda: Oh! I can take over. If you need a break.

Atreus: No! No, I’m fine. I’ve got it.

Angrboda: Uh. Okay.

There’s an animation whenever you get out of the boat where Atreus is visibly rolling the pain out of his shoulders. But he utterly refuses to let Angrboda take over

3. New mechanics

New mechanics! I've posted about what I think an Atreus-led game would include, new magic, new shapeshifting, and maybe Atreus gets a sword. Specifically, I want to delve into the idea of "magic is tied to the land" like Freya mentions. This DLC would give a taste of that. Atreus would get a few new proper spells. Not runes. Spells. Greek spells. It's implied the lands of Greece have died since Kratos killed all their gods, but what if Atreus coming back reawakened it just a tiny bit? Since there's Greek god blood in him? He's the grandson of Zeus. The land would know him.

New shapeshifting form too! Just one. Probably a lion. Because lions are significant in Greek mythology AND fit the Egypt aesthetic so he can have it at the start of the next game and it would make sense! Lion Atreus! Woo! Maybe an eagle as well. A bird form would be fun, there’s a lot you could do with the flight aspect in gameplay

Maybe hold off on the sword for no other reason than I want Atreus' first sword to be a khopesh.

Look at how cool that is. That's literally the only reason I don't want to give Atreus a sword in Greece, khopesh are Egyptian

4. Atreus would find out about Lysandra and Calliope

Despite being somewhat aware of his father's past... I don't think Atreus actually knows about Lysandra and Calliope. We never have any indication he does, and even after Kratos filled Atreus in on his past killing gods, I don't think he ever told him about his first family. I think it was too painful for him, and he probably justified it with "Why should he know? They're gone"

But I do think Atreus would want to know. Especially about Calliope. Family is important to him, we see that multiple times in the game. I think finding out about her would be a very bittersweet thing for him. He had a sister. He really had a sister! But she's gone... he'll never know her. It'd be a weird thing for him to process I think, and I'd want to see him go through that

I think Atreus takes very naturally to Greek writing. So, he’d find their names on something. Probably a monument in their honor. Something with the inscription “Lysandra, beloved wife and mother” “Calliope, beloved daughter.”

How he’d put together their connection to his father, and subsequently him, I’m not very clear on. It would probably be a gradual process. He finds their names and as the DLC goes on he’d slowly put together that they knew his father, and then at the end he’d realize they were his father’s first family. As well as how they died

That’s it! That’s all I’ve got. I know it seems like a lot but I still don’t know what they’re actually doing in Greece. Obviously “exploring” and “learning about Kratos’ past” but those are very broad. I have no idea what the particulars would be yet

I should also say, I don’t EXPECT this to be a real DLC. This is not a theory or even really speculation. It’s fanfic. Just an idea I’m having fun with and nothing more

#god of war #god of war: ragnarok #god of war ragnarok #ruins of war #why not. maybe I’ll post more about it

[cleoselene]

4 vinyl albums that are like, my bible of women in music and I’m obsessed with how fuckin dope they sound on vinyl:

the flash washed out the color on the actual record but the Boys For Pele is the original first press 1996 Cola Bottle Clear, and the LPSS is of course the RSD grey.  RENAISSANCE and Goddess are on 180g vinyl.  For Banks and Beyonce, the rich electronic music makes you feel like you’re IN the club.  Pele is... a spookier album in the original press sonically that the 2016 remaster which is everywhere.  And I love that.  Because Pele is a completely feral island, Tori got the whole concept while visiting Kilauea after a breakup and wanting to throw some boy sacrifices to the mother volcano, and then the album itself was recorded in a 300-year-old church in Wicklow, Ireland, giving the press this spooky quality to an already spooky record.  And the LPSS?  Is such an intimate sounding album on vinyl.  Again, there feels like there’s her presence in the room singing just for you.

lol look I’m fully aware of how pretentious stoner rambly hipster I”ve become since getting a turntable but since listening to music is what literally keeps me sane, I am pretty much intoxicated by how good vinyl sounds.  This isn’t how I remember record players sounding as a kid!

Sonic Frontiers Endgame Spoilers under the cut

People are saying that The End is an incarnation of Infinite but honestly it’s a lot more likely that it’s the other way around. 

Like guys, we don’t really know how old Infinite is/was, but in all plausibility given his backstory it probably wasn’t “incomprehensibly old enough to destroy the homeworld of an ancient civilization of aliens singlehandedly.” 

Given that The End was trapped the Ancients for X thousand years before tricking Sonic into setting it free, that timeframe would’ve been mutually exclusive with Infinite running around during the events of Forces without the usage of time travel or some shit. 

But I guess since it could still affect things (ie guiding Sonic) within the vicinity of the Starfall islands, maybe you could say that it was able to get just a small piece of its power to leak out but I’m pretty sure that’d make more sense for an origin story for The Phantom Ruby rather than Infinite himself, especially given the events of Mania. Since again, Infinite seemed like more or less a normal mortal before Eggman gave the Ruby to him.

All this, combined with the implication that the Moon form we fight might not be its actual body but an incarnation it uses to interact with the physical world (What with being a manifestation of Nothingness, Entropy, Death, etc.al a some serious Lovecraft shit), gives me the impression that if anything, the Phantom Ruby is another Incarnation of The End. And given what happened to Infinite both at the end of Forces and Word of God saying he’s straight up DEAD from overusing it, I think its power is a form of a Faustian Bargain where you use it for a period of time before getting snuffed out, since The End’s whole final boss monologue and the fact it genocide’d the Ancients twice over gives the impression that it has a real sadistic streak.

(And personally I’d like this to mean that being able to have multiple Incarnations means it becomes a recurring antagonist since that’d be dope as Hell and a way to set it distinct from other Sonic Final Bosses Who Aren’t Eggman).

Can't believe I forgot how I was going to include Miraculous. They wouldn't be major charecters but Marinette and Adrien would be in the I-Island Arc.

So remember that power boosting tech from I-Island? Well AFO tried making his own with a twist. The ability to store a quirk. He did this only for a short time due to realzing this is a dumb idea but he created some items. A side effect is that while using the item you can hear and hallucinate the original quirk holder. These got stolen from AFO like hundreads of years before the series begins. These are the Miraculous and they aren't animal themed in this one.

A few Miraculous would have to be changed like the rabbit, peacock, butterfly, others probably but idr them all off the top of my head. They don't work in this fic but I liked the concept

I.

Okay but the Miraculous being some kind of stored Quirk tech that only works if the user wears it? Kinda dope!

[game-boy-pocket]

Being genuinely excited for that Yoshi's Island track in Mario Kart is a big reminder for me why i'm usually not very excited for Mario spinoffs.

I feel like Mario Kart, and by extension, other Mario spinoffs, should be a big celebration and crossover of the larger Mario franchise, old and new. Instead it just kind of feels like "Mario, but he's in a different genre of video game and the setting is only vaguely Mario themed, and the roster is like the same 12 characters plus a rotation of characters from recent Mario games"

I don't want to say every Mario spinoff should only do things that reference other Mario games and not do anything original, not at all. I just want these big Mario crossovers to actually appeal to me as a fan in a way other than "okay here's the characters. And here's some environments that idk we put Waluigi's name and likeness on this giant pinball table so it's Waluigi themed" and my response to that as a fan of Mario platformers is "Who's Waluigi?" ...okay bad example, so like, they give us a cruise liner as a race track and just tell us "This is Daisy's ship" and I just shrug and say okay I guess Daisy has a ship. A Sarasaland cup would be pretty dope though... there's four Kingdoms in Mario Land... four tracks in a cup...you know... seems kind of like an easy way to pay respect to Daisy... maybe add Tatanga instead of like... a Wiggler or a Goomba... y'know?

I don't know if this makes sense to anyone but me, but just adding Mario characters into genres I am not that interested in just never did much to make me interested in those spinoffs because they don't FEEL Like Mario to me. Mario Kart I make an exception for because unlike the sports and party games... it's really fuckin' fun.

Sonic Frontiers looks 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦 but it's still disappointing. Without even looking into gameplay the world itself is just boring. It looks like every other botw wanna be and it doesn't have to be.

The world of sonic is SO interesting. They couldve disregarded all the previous game "lore" and went for a SatAm style world, or more current comic style world, or kept the game lore and made a more modern but fantasy like world. Even adding old locations like Station square, the mystic ruins, metropolis zone, San Francisco. Maybe have Angle Island actually floating about hard to find but so mystical, or Chao gardens.

I think the "Sonic SatAm" world would have been the most interesting bc nothing like it's been done in a game.

Going through a destroyed world trying to free city's with beloved Sonic characters as you get stronger to be able to finally defeat Eggman would have been dope.

And even if they did beat eggman at the end there would still be sequel room or even a whole separate story for a second game.

And not another character has been shown.(Amy's been mentioned) Sonic has a massive cast. I can probably name 30 off the top of my head so there's little excuse to have such lifeless world. I'm not asking for all of them to be playable but imagine having Amy, cream and her mom's, or even shadow's homes as locations with them there (or not depending). Sa1 did something similar, Tails' work shop was a a location you could enter and it was mentioned that Amy had an apartment. Wouldnt it be fun to just explore Sonic's would? No, instead we get "an island he washed up in".

The most dissatisfying thing about this game is definitely there lack of creativity, but sadly that isn't a shock Sega hasn't had the balls to do anything interesting with sonic in years. They somehow manage to be the most reckless with their property while never stepping outside the box labeled safe. Maybe the final game will be more interesting than whats been shown but I don't have my hopes up.

Now talking on gameplay, I think I would have gone the original Sonic Adventure hub world approach with maybe some Sonic 06 hub world mixed in. An open area where doing certain things unlocks others and with power-ups hidden about. I also think most of the adventure moveset would have been fine especially early game but other stuff might have made the game play more varied later. Like having the spindash from the start as you unlock later things.

The other a abilities could be anything from the standard light speed dash to magic hands.

Given a wide enough or even just a fun enough moveset whether the game felt small or not because Sonic was faster wouldn't matter because doing stuff again and again different ways would be fun. Say you want to get up a mountain. With a good move set there would likely be several ways to do it and part of the fun would be figuring out which one to use.

I'd also have momentum based controls instead of boost. I think, and this one is probably the most personal preference in this little rant, having him be able to spin dash like an adventure, Adventure 2, and even Sonic the Hedgehog is better than when he dashes like in heroes, unleashed, or Lost world. The the dash mechanic works pretty well with a long straight pathways but open pathways I find spin dashing more fun especially when you can move around after spinning. I feel like I have more control.

Having multiple characters especially when the first alternative would be able to fly would be quite difficult so I understand if they didn't. And I would they didn't because if tails IS a playable character they should be yelling that from a rooftop.

I can't tell enough about how's the game actually controls by just watching so I can't say whether they will be fun or not.

!YANDERE! Theseus × ! FEMALE PRINCESS! Reader

⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️⚔️

Summary: What if Y/n save herself from the labyrinth so like because we all know Theseus at first never love Ariane what if Y/n was here but not dumb and kill the Minotaur herself and leave.

Minos demanded a human sacrifices of 14 young Athenians every few years to keep the Minotaur fed.

This goes smoothly for the first couple of sacrifices but on the third go round this whole Minotaur human sacrifices situation.

Draws the attention of a spunky young hero aiming to prove himself!

And feisty young princess wanting to slay the Minotaur!

Specifically Theseus, Athens' founder hero and officially best boy...

Which really reflects more poorly on Athens then anything else.

And Y/n a princess from a unknown place who's heard of the Minotaur and wants to go slay the beast she is quite charming and beautiful but also likes to fight anything that supposed to threat to what she finds important to her.

Anywho Theseus brings a big cool boat and plenty of gumption but not much in the way of a plan.So it's lucky for him that Minos' daughter Ariane takes one good look at this new cute boy and Ghost full head over heels for him.

Possibly because she doesn't go out much.Now Ariane is very familiar with the Labyrinth, in fact in one early citation of the story mentions in the Iliad.

It suggested the original version of Daedalus' Labyrinth was built specifically for Ariane as a dancing path with no Minotaur involved.

Mythologically Ariane go way back, maybe even further than the Minotaur.

And some people theorize Ariane as originally some kind of Cretan goddess known as "The Mistress of the Labyrinth"Which is dope as hell, but not what we're here for.

Anyways back to the story.

Ariane helps Theseus out by giving him a ball of thread called a clew that'll let him returned his path out of the labyrinth.

And Theseus makes her guidance, eventually finding the minute eventually eventually finding a woman in front of the Minotaur with a sword in her hand and entering it in total red combat.Until she managed to decapitate it.

"Who are you?" Theseus ask completely astonished of who she is.

"I am princess Y/n."

She stated in a cold monotone voice, as she continues.

"And who might you be, might I ask?" Y/n says to Theseus.

"Theseus, I'm Theseus, princess Y/n." Theseus says to her.

Y/n looks him up and down. "I see." Said Y/n as she started to walk away from Theseus.

Theseus then panicked and shouted. "WHAT!" he yelled to the princess, as she turned around."I know the way out."

Theseus says to Y/n as she nods.Y/n follows Theseus as he shows her the way out.They get out of the labyrinth and run into Minos and his daughter Ariane.

"YOU TWO ARE THE ONES THAT KILLED THE MINOTAUR!!!" Minos yells at the three of them.They ran to Theseus's boat and hopped on and leaves.

The group stopped at a island to rest up.

In the middle of the night, Theseus gathers his men to the boat and please leave leaves Ariane, but not Y/n.

Instead of waking up Y/n, Theseus carried her to the boat to let her rest more.

In the morning Y/n woke up to find out that Theseus left Ariane and got mad.

"Theseus! Why did you leave Ariane?!" Y/n yelled at him.Theseus looked at Y/n in a lovesick face. "Ariane was getting in the way....

so I had to leave her behind."Y/n ran towards the water and jumped into the water and called on Poseidon to help her.

ORIGINS

[PIRATE] Pirates, Buccaneers, Scallywags, whatever you want to call them. This option covers not only pirates, but anyone who can be said to work in opposition to the World Government and the established order. This means you could be a pirate, a mountain bandit, or even a revolutionary. Whatever you are, you’re luckily still under the radar of the Marines, as you haven’t made any waves just yet.

RACE

[HUMAN] Humans, Homo Sapiens Sapiens, I assume you know what these are. Due to their close relation to normal humans, picking this option will also allow you to be any of the number of near-human tribes from this world, like long-arms or skypieans, though you get no notable benefit, so choosing the three-eyed tribe won’t let you hear the Voice of All Things for example. Honestly, you can add pretty much any number of purely cosmetic traits, as there are some weird looking humans ‘round here. Also, humans have been seen from normal sizes to 6+ meters tall. You can choose any size within that range, maxing out at Whitebeard's tremendous 666cm height.

LOCATION

[DOUBLE TROUBLE] Well, at least it isn’t Impel Down? Flip a coin, it’ll determine which of two terrible locations you’re showing up on. Tails is instead the island of Little Garden, an extremely isolated ecosystem that seems to have never left the prehistoric age. Within the vast canopy you’ll find all manner of dinosaurs that didn’t get the memo that their time has passed, but that’s actually the least dangerous part of it. The diseases found here have never left the island, so foreign creatures, including people, will have no response ready from their immune system, not helped by the fact that all the diseases and viruses seem to be doping, with even diseases that exist in the wider world being far worse here. Doesn’t really matter if you can punch hard enough to reduce a mountain to rubble if you get so sick your organs liquify and leak out your every orifice.

PERKS

[GODA’S BLESSING] Don’t know if you’ve noticed, but the average looks of people here, at least people of importance, is quite a few notches higher than you might be used to, and we can’t have you looking like some kind of side character, now can we? You’re sitting at a solid 8/10 now kid, enough to not look out of place standing beside a bunch of gorgeous protagonists. And considering how rough this world can be, you get the extra benefit of never looking worse, no matter how scuffed up and covered in mud and blood you are. Frankly, some ‘round here might say it adds to your charm.

[SMILE THROUGH THE PAIN] Y’know, for as idyllic as sailing the high seas with your friends might seem, there’s a depressing amount of darkness in this world. Slavery, murder, and more are not exactly uncommon sights ‘round here. But you find yourself able to grin through it all. You are utterly incapable of being permanently scarred or traumatized by your experiences. You could watch your home and all you cared for burnt to the ground, and still find it in you to joke and laugh with new friends, though only after some time. You can still be extremely sad, angry, and anything else, but you’ll never end up a broken, drunken wreck in a bar somewhere, no matter what you come upon. Even in the short term, you rarely give into despair, letting you focus less on the village burning behind you, and more on putting your fist through the face of the bastard who did it. It’d take seeing your brother die in front of you to really shake you.

[FAKE PIRATE] At least as far as Luffy is concerned. You’re exactly the kind of pirate the marines say you are, or at least you could be. You are scarily good at the whole looting and pillaging business. You’ve got an eye for value that lets you roughly estimate the selling price of anything you can lay eyes on. You’re great at finding the hidden stashes and vaults where people hide their true valuables. You’re fantastic at casing a target, whether that’s a bank on land or a merchant ship at sea. You’re even a fairly good negotiator, often able to rob people blind without having to fire a shot, just by convincing them that fighting will just make everything worse. Hell, you even seem to get a bit more out of the whole business than others. Nothing crazy, but enough to make sure you and your crew are all a very happy bunch if you play it smart.

[LOOK, MA! NO HANDS!] Not sure if you’ve realized yet, but this world is pretty damn dangerous. You can’t expect to solve every conflict by holding hands and singing a silly song. Instead, you should learn to use those hands to beat your opponents face in, it’s very therapeutic. By taking this, you gain skill in some form of martial art, roughly equal to Sanji at the beginning of the series. This can be anything from strict karate, to being a naturally skilled brawler, to even something like Fishman Karate. The martial art you learn is specifically centered around using your body, and won’t include much if any skill with weaponry. You have a natural talent for martial arts, enough to become legendarily strong just with this, should you train hard enough.

[WHERE THERE’S A WILL, THERE’S A WAY] Y’know, normally the endless willpower of a shonen protagonist is limited to just keeping them from dying or giving up, they usually can’t use it to see the future. You are both capable of, and fairly talented in, the uses of all three types of Haki: Observation, Armament, and Conqueror’s. You don’t start out very powerful in any respect, but we all have to start somewhere, and this is a better headstart than most get. With Armament, you start out capable of the simple invisible version of hardening, which while weaker than the coating form is still an impressive defense in the weaker parts of the world. With Observation you can sense the presence of people around you, even if you could not see them naturally, whether due to distance or an obstruction. With Conqueror’s Haki, you’re currently only capable of Domination, the act of dominating an individual's will to intimidate them. This is most effective against non-sapient species, who you can usually cow into submission easily. Humans are trickier, as with sufficient power, or generally high will of their own, can outright ignore this. There are plenty more techniques that you can eventually achieve, potentially including applications never shown in the series.

[CANDLEWICK BEARD] You know what’s just as important as strength? Reputation. Having strength without reputation means, at best, that you’ll have to deal with every wannabe pirate king or admiral throwing themselves at you until you get the reputation you deserve. At worse, it means that if you do get injured or otherwise weakened and word gets out, you can’t draw on an impressive reputation to ward away your enemies. Now, having reputation without strength is a whole other issue, but one that’s usually easier to solve. As far as the former is concerned, this should have you covered. You have a startling talent and propensity for developing an impressive reputation. Within just a few months you could have people watching you as an up and coming legend, assuming you went out and raised hell in that time. While your reputation tends to be a bit embellished, it’s rarely so much so that you can’t mostly meet expectations when necessary. Beyond just developing a reputation, something mostly facilitated through rumours after the fact, you also have an impressive capacity for being absolutely pants-shittingly terrifying. Just watching you get in a brawl with someone could leave their buddies shaking like a leaf, and should you actually commit acts of brutality or that would normally be considered scary, you could cause people to faint from sheer terror. This works in conjunction with abilities that work to scare, dominate, or otherwise crush another’s will with one’s own, such as Conqueror’s Haki.
