It makes sense, really. If you want to have any scenes showing what Robotnik is up to that isn't directly fighting the heroes, you need to give him someone to monologue at.

Sonic Adventure came out during the games industry's awkward puberty where 3D games were starting to become a serious thing but no one had really established how to do it well yet. A lot of games from that era are full of awkward jank but got away with it because they were still the best you could get at the time.

Dabir posted:The prototype Carnival Night and Launch Base have already supplanted the Jackson tracks in my mind. Ice Cap not so much but I'm sure it'll get there I liked the prototype Launch Base more than the Jackson one even back when those were just the weird PC Port midis, it's honestly a great pair of tracks. And all three are better for actually having an Act 2 theme rather than just repeating the Act 1 music with some audio tracks muted.

Sonic 3 is the best looking one because that's the one I played growing up

One thing behind StC's adaptation of Robotnik is that they got informed that both the AoSTH and SatAM cartoons were coming to the UK, but were never given any instruction on which, if either, they were supposed to align the comic's canon with. So they sort of split the difference and had Robotnik do the egg regeneration thing to match AoSTH's look for him, and did the time travel takeover thing to make Robotnik rule over Mobius, but didn't introduce any other elements from the cartoons because no one ever said they needed to. Sega played pretty fast and loose with Sonic's brand identity in those days.

StC definitely went way out ahead of general Sonic canon in making Amy a cool and fun character in her own right. To the point that they had to build up her character completely from scratch, since for pretty much the whole run of the comic her game-canon personality was "damsel in distress with a crush on the hero". The crossbow thing honestly makes perfect sense in that context - Sonic goes fast and has a speedy name, Tails' big feature is his tails, Knuckles uses his knuckles for punching and digging, so surely Amy's power must be aim-y? It's still my favourite depiction of Amy, to the extent that you can consider her the same character at all. The games' canon depiction is only just starting to catch up. I'll forgive Archie not doing anything similar with her, since they already had some cool girl characters from the cartoon cast they adapted.

Veotax posted:Why though? Who cares at this point? Does Sega even want the pre-reboot characters? I don't think anyone expects Sega to bring back their favourite old comic characters. But a fan can dream, right? That said, Sega have pushed hard on the nostalgia pedal the last several years. It would be a fun way to add some spice to the Classic Sonic cast.
