The character, not the game.



ngl I still have a soft spot for the angsty little bastard. Design is neat and rocket shoes are rad.

Shadow actually had a pretty decent character arc in Sonic Adventure 2 where he goes from being a dickhole because of the death of his only friend to working with Sonic to save Earth because Amy makes him understand empathy for strangers.

too bad now they just want him to be edgy hedgehog vegeta

Knuckles was edgy but not edgy enough for Sega.

Dreadful character.

He's like a character designed by committee to be "edgy" and "cool", and he just misses every possible mark.

He's the videogame equivalent of Poochy off of The Simpsons ("I feel we should rastafy him by ... ten percent or so")

It's just another word repurposed by idiots. Like cancel culture. You're gonna have to get used to it, sadly.

The idiots that are even lesser than laymen outnumber "normal" (average intelligence) people by far.

Shadow The Hedgehog reminds me of those edgy emo teens who cut themselves to feel pain and write cringey poetry thinking its deep.

Both are cringe, although I remember having at least a bit of fun with the game.

Based is simply the opposite of cringe, the antithesis if you must

He gave us more 'Sonic' Stages/Zones, so I can deal with him.

~And anyway, I am not going to obsess over characters in a Sonic game, outside the core 3.
Really for me, it's basically Sonic and Tails, and all the animals in the mechs...and later my Chao.

When I started hearing it years ago, it meant "doesn't give a fuck"

Like a dude wearing a rainbow suit in public is based

I liked his character arc in Sonic Adventure 2. He wasn't as good after that game though.

Shadow The Hedgehog (the game) actually had some interesting ideas. specially with that multiple choice story mechanic.

but the guns and vehicles were pretty unnecessary. specially when youre supposed to be this ultimate life form or whatever... lol

I think he's alright but it seems like they all but scrapped his backstory and he hardly appears. Like all of Sonic's other friends (yes, even Tails and Knuckles) they don't seem to know what to do with him anymore.

His own game though, lmfao.
