You could have easily named this episode "Part 3 & Knuckles"
that's clever, dang
I am so mad now that it wasn't named like this
Knuckles theme is great. Quite relaxing which is surprising considering how Knuckles can be a bit of a hothead sometimes.
Knuckles' music has always been about vibing if you listen to his SA2 level themes and that is just what this track in particular aims to provide.
@@7evan That track is Knuckles' Movement music for when you play as him in Update 3. It's called "Blood Flow" and the lyrics (together with the song itself) are all pretty boppin'. I agree that they don't fit the world ending scenario the story presented, but it's still pretty awesome to listen to!
I seriously don't know what's more amusing: the fact that Ian and Casey remember the Infinite Jump exploit from Sonic Boom or the fact that Ian discovered the Infinite Jump exploit in Frontiers within 15 minutes of playing with Knuckles completely by himself!
The last time any of these characters were playable is actually Sonic 06, it feels surreal seeing them playable again!!
Seeing how Ian plays the game has made me realise how much it was developed with the idea you played the previous two updates as they came out, also your asking why the caterpillar doesn't look like a caterpillar when a red echidna is right Infront of you
I think that's why the difficulty spike for a lot of people is so jarring because many of the challenges are designed with mindset that you played the previous updates and messed with the mew momentum stuff and have the spin-dash (hence why they just give it to you for free in the update) and I think a lot of people only picked the game back up to play this for the new story and rushed into the update so they’re not having as much fun as someone who did play the other updates.
Now with that said I still think the balancing could've been better because even with knowledge of the other updates the spike is still pretty rough. In particular THAT one challenge later 😂.
Just a reminder, you should go to Options and start tinkering with the Deceleration toggles, it essentially adds the "Momentum" from the Adventure games.
Also, hopefully you go back and play the previous updates aswell as more Sonic games like Unleashed and Generations (After that comment, Ian definitely should revisit the game and give it a second chance)
Within this update they broke the slider so it’s either maxed out or completely off.
Well, you feel like your reading the comics again, cuz Ian Flynn who is the writer for the Sonic IDW comics, wrote this game so we already knew that this was gonna be a revival of what we love about sonic! (Also if you haven't checked out Sonic IDW you should, it's so good!)
"That's not wtf a stomp is"! Legendary! 🤣😂
23:56 Unleashed on the wii/ps2 are very different games compared to to the ps3 Xbox 360 versions, so if you haven't played the other version I recommend you play it with at least an open mind of sonic cause it can be pretty devicive depending on who you ask, I personally say it's great
Not only is most Jerma content reposts, but he also doesn't act like a real human in his streams. Like seriously, he says the most unhinged shit out of nowhere (for example the "meat grinder incident")
I missed this game on the channel. It's always a chill vibe
3:21 AND WELCOME TO BORNLOSERSGAMING!😂
This is fantastic. I love this game so much, I cannot wait for Tails.
I recommend y'all to check out the IDW Sonic comics for more of this good-good characterization. The second major arc goes HARD
Ah, a fellow IDW enjoyer. Noice.
Watching Ian spin mirrors about in a panic without first even attempting to figure out the goal the the puzzle was highly entertaining.
Fists are just feet for your arms, so stomp still works!
Oh wow Baybel cheese, I haven't had those in quite a few years! No doubt they're way too expensive by now to justify buying with any sort of regularity.
I'm pretty sure I've seen a Jerma video pop up in my recommended at one point or another, so I'm leaning on the side of him being real. Never actually watched said video, though.
Okay, we got through Knuckles in one part to make more time for the Best Character!
I only know that Jerma is real because he played Among Us VR with Vinny Vinesauce
It's been interesting to see all of the characters' variations on the Cyloop so far.
They not acknowledging the existence of Sonic the Hedgehog 2006 is funny.
I mean, I don't blame them, but it is kinda funny, I will admit.
Shh, that never happened... F-Forget Generations...
I mean that gane never happened because elise blew out the flame
Knuckles theme is so great, really liked it.
Once you unlock the ability to parry as Knuckles, the infinite jump gets more efficient.
YO! More lore on Ian's background with Sonic! You love to see it! I find it interesting that you said that you played Unleashed for Wii and Generations and didn't like either.
I find it interesting that you said that because those are two games that are very highly regarded in the fandom. Like, Genereations may have it's weak points, but it may as well be the least hated game in the fandom! It has fantastic gameplay togtther with fantastic levels! And even if Unleashed received unfair criticisms from everyone when it first released, overtime, both versions of Unleashed received lots of praise from people that decided to revisit the game. Word of mouth spread around and the game got popular in the fandom again, with many fans claiming that Unleashed represents the story direction and writing and epicness that the Sonic series should have moving forward.
Fortunately, Sonic Frontiers has the writing style that Unleashed (as well as other Sonic games from it's era) had, and everyone praised the game's story for that!

Sidenote: I did mention "both versions of Unleashed" so you're probably confused about that. In order to appeal to a bigger audience, SEGA decided to release Sonic Unleashed for the most mainline consoles possible at time. Sonic Team got started on the development of the game, but they soon realised that the code that they were working on simply wouldn't work on some of the consoles that SEGA wanted the game to be released at. So Sonic Team got to work on the code for the original game, which was released for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. At the same time, they also called Dimps, the dev team that worked on the Advance trilogy and the Rush trilogy, to work on the version that released for the Nintendo Wii and the Playstation 2. Some people in the fandom refer to these versions of the game as "Unleashed HD" and "Unleashed SD", respectively. This decision was very beneficial for them because both versions of Unleashed marked the childhoods of all kids that played them, myself included! Even nowadays, both versions are very cherished by the fandom for separate reasons. The SD version of Unleashed features weaker gaphics, obviously, but it also features different controls, MASSIVELY different level design and a different way of progressing through the game. Both versions of the game have many reasons for them to be someone's favorite Sonic game. It's kinda hard to explain the differences without video evidence, but trust me, the two versions are more different than you imagine.
When you mention Unleashed in a conversation about Sonic, most people default to the HD version since it is the more complete version of the two, as in, it has more things that the SD version does not have. However, depending on what you are talking about, you can just say "Unleashed" without any specification and people will know that you can be refering to either version interchangeably.

I wonder, Ian, when did you play Unleashed for Wii and Generations? Because I'm assuming that you were just under the mentality that just because those games had a different gameplay style for Sonic (the Boost gameplay), that they were automatically bad, when that couldn't be farther from the truth. I can't really blame you tho. Human beings, by default, are resistant to change.
Regardless, I recommend trying Unleashed after you're done with Update 3. Nowadays, the best way to play Unleashed HD is via retro-compatibility on Xbox One and Xbox Series consoles. Generations is also really fun to play as well, but Generations came out in 2011 and Unleashed came out in 2008, so I'd recommend seeing how the Boost formula started in 3D by first playing Unleashed. (Unleashed is also the better game between the two, just sayin' :) )
The last time All 3 characters were playable (in 3D)vwas Sonic 06. At least, the last "main" game (they've been in racing games, and boom, and Rivals).
The last time they had a full campaign would indeed either be Heroes or SA2.
The new playable characters haven't been playable since sonic 06 im pretty sure 🤔
3:31 wow Casey, had to call me out specifically?
jerma's non-ironically hyperreal to me: not a real human but a concept or a character I hear echos of, like I hear about hercules or santa claus
I just beat this dlc on hard, it was very difficult, but very gratifying. Good luck.
i used to feel like people were weird for saying that anyone who beats an absurdly hard game must be a masochist. but i realize now that- when theyre not kidding- it comes from a place of being incapable of understanding another person's headspace.
like, truly, how does one find beating this on hard mode gratifying despite the unbalanced design and the jank in general? genuine question, not trying to be sarcastic, i wanna know lol
Doing that one section on hard (you know the one) felt very gratifying when I beat it. I felt myself adapting to the difficulty while realizing that despite the unfair situation, it is indeed doable.
@@dandyspacedandy some parts were annoying, sure. But for parts like the final trial, the gratification came from the feeling of improvement. Every time I died it was entirely my fault, so when I won it knew that was all because of me. I'd rather win a tournament than win the lottery, I'd rather lose because of skill than win because of luck. Which is why I loved fighting radiant radiance in hollow knight, but hated fighting radiant zote. (Trial 2 was bullsh*t though, I do confess to watching a guide for that)
Tl:Dr skill good, luck bad
@@TronicSpeed trial 5?
@@feeplemurphy4618 Yeah
Hahaa, the game with knuckles tails and sonic was Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Arguably one of the best Sonic games ever
All that talk of Germa, I'm just thinking of Germa 66 from One Piece.
31:00 Wouldn't be the first time. 38:00 Sonic 2006.
Dude i love that rats song, it's soo funny
"Onion ring!" - Jerma probably
not me, silently yelling at my screen about sonic heroes let you play as tails until they realized it, i would never do that
For that map thing at the end you were struggling with, Spin Dash seems to be the only way to be fast enough
Knock knock, it's Knuckles!
Maybe the real Jerma was the friends we made along the way
you guys stilll need to play Sonic Forces to truely appreciate how good this game is
also ian, the xbox version is the best version of Unleashed, this is coming from someone who also played the wii version. but its still hard as heck.
Hard agree on both statements! Ian doesn't fully understand the power that Frontiers had on the series because he doesn't know whatthe latest mainline title was before Frontiers. He should look at the game one day.
BLGQOTD: I don’t think he is
Curious if Ian ever played Sonic Heroes? (Edit: Nmv should have waited until I saw the video through but I was afraid I'll forget to type out the comment XD) I grew up loving Sonic but I never played too many games aside from old school ones. Sonic Heroes had a fun between characters dynamic and team mechanic was a blast to play through! I kind of hope SEGA takes on exploring that idea again, because watching these character interactions in Frontiers made me nostalgic for it.
QOTD - Jerma is equally as real as his collabs with vtubers.
Jerma isn’t real, he’s a TF2 character
Unlike Sonic, he don't chuckle.
he'd rather flex his muscles.
22:05 actually tails was complimenting knuckles not amy.
15:39 fin.
Yo you will love tails move set
Would be down to see what you guys think of the IDW comics.
Knuckles
I was skipping through huge parts of the video because i wanted to see if they upgraded things at some point, seeing that "29" and the "!" was giving me anxiety
You must be new here. Even in his LP of the base game, Ian doesn't usually upgrade things immediately. Probably because he wants a mix of gameplay time and testing the new ability unlocked, I assume.
It is really crazy how you didn't like Sonic Generations...
Quick question since its born losers October do you guys think youll play a horror game like fnaf or idk something really old like Slenderman
Knock knock it’s him
