I LOVE The Parallels Between Gerald And Eggman In Sonic 3. ESPECIALLY With How They Treat Shadow/Stone

I LOVE the parallels between Gerald and Eggman in Sonic 3. ESPECIALLY with how they treat Shadow/Stone (their respective henchman/helper).

Eggman's BLATANTLY honest with Stone, and certainly blunt, but he actually DOES care about him. In Sonic 1, he looks down on Stone, calling him a sycophant and stupid ("Way to go, you got that one"). In Sonic 2, he doesn't seem to hold Stone in a higher regard, saying that he and Knuckles should ditch him, and leave him at the Mean Bean. While Stone's completely loyal to him, and it's clear that he cares about Eggman, it's only in Sonic 3 when Eggman actually realizes that Stone IS the only person who ever cared for him.

Meanwhile, Gerald's manipulative. He seems to talk down to Shadow, primarily ordering him around and only bothering to keep him out of harms way during the London heist, BEFORE he has access to the Eclipse Canon. He actively preys on Shadow's grief, telling him that he needs to remember that Maria was taken from them, and that humanity deserves to be destroyed. Gerald doesn't even bother with correcting Eggman when he calls Shadow a "Thermonuclear gerbil". And when Gerald sees that Shadow is now working with Sonic, he says "I see you chosen betrayal. And you were once so useful to me."

Gerald was (likely) only using Shadow as a tool, something he could discard when it no longer had a purpose. But Eggman WANTED to keep Stone around. He IS the reason that Eggman tried to save the world. To Eggman, Stone was MORE than a henchman and sychophant. He was a sychofriend.

You know... Shadow didn't know about Ring travel in the third movie (since he crashed on Earth in a meteor), so the first (and only) time he would've seen it was when the G.U.N. helicopter arrived in Tokyo, but it would've been unlikely (possibly due to him fighting soldiers at the time). Imagine if the first time he sees a Ring being used is in Sonic 4, and he just has NO IDEA why the portal opened, and Sonic just has to tell him "Yeah, it's safe, I do this all the time", with NO explanation for how the Rings work, or how he knows about them, leaving Shadow with the most confused expression on his face.

Ideas for a SatBK remaster (if it ever happens):

Camelot Castle and Nimue's Lake as hub worlds! Nimue can provide her challenges of Chivalry (the missions she sends Sonic on), and the bonus stages (unlocked after defeating Merlina), while the extra challenges could be given by the villagers in Camelot Castle. Connections to Arthurian legend can be accessed through dialogue at Nimue's, while SatBK specific lore can be accessed with the villagers in Camelot Castle, changing at different parts of the game (them talking about Arthur's corruption, how grateful they are to Sonic, and when Lancelot/Percival/Gawain, how they react to each knight). Plus, it would provide easy access to the Blacksmith, unlocking titles, and exchanging items.

FIXED CONTROLS. NO MORE DELAY. It's admittedly part of the charm (for me), but I would LOVE to have them fixed so the delay isn't as bad.

Camelot's treasury as an ACTUAL room (like Shadow's room in Generations). This can showcase the different items that are found, different talismans or potions made at the blacksmith's, and even showcasing the Sacred Swords. You could also view found concept are and replay cutscenes here.

A way to access Battle Mode in the game. Like, walk through one gate, and a prompt comes up asking if you want to enter Battle Mode/Multiplayer. This would let the player choose what character they want to play as, and also allow them to battle against a CPU opponent.

Some way to access the map at all times. With the original theme for the level selection playing while it's pulled up. For levels, you'd still have the ability to choose which knight you play as before entering a level, and the ability to equip items/talismans from the Blacksmith's Shop. (Maybe Merlina's magic allowed Sonic to instantly memorize the map or something.)

Last, but DEFINITELY not least:

GALAHAD AND LAMORAK IN THE GAME. PLEASE. SEGA, I'M BEGGING YOU.

PLEASE LET US WRITE THIS

My favorite genre of post is "hey here's my idea for an episode of sonic boom" (example 1, example 2). These posts prompt me to believe that if we got together, we as tumblrinas could so easily write a new season of Sonic Boom. Here's my episode pitch: Sonic finds a random-ass pink hedgehog who looks suspiciously like him, around his age, and she just stares directly at him for about fifteen seconds before kidnapping him and yelling "MANIIIIIIIIIC GUESS WHO I FUCKING FOUUUUUUUUUUUUUND" because she is Sonia and Sonia and Manic are canon now
