@Mystic Monkey I completely agree with you!

I'm sick of this.

Ah yes. Her character is now ruined because she is no longer the creepy love stuck stalker anymore. Something fans honestly found annoying about her since like Adventure.

Like seriously, how does this "ruin" her character?

In the opening cutscene, she still cares about Sonic (wanting to hug him, being close to him, and handing him cupcakes, honestly the change make Sonic look less mean (for lack of ability to use more adult term), since he isn't shoving hand in her face, but she still love Sonic)

And she doesn't flirt with him as hard, ok? Like she still like Sonic guys, she just isn't the creepy stalker anymore (for good reasons, because that character architect kinda sucks).

Like, the only thing we didn't like about the changes was how they didn't fully reanimated the cutscene (both because Shadow's cutscene are very expressive and fluent, so it kinda makes the base cutscene kinda stiff, and because changes like this or Knuckles classic Sonic cutscene look less odd)

The problem, Sega is acting like Sonic and Amy never had a special relationship ever before.

I want Amy to be special, not to Sonic but to me, the fan consuming the content.

Amy needs focus.

As I said, if Sonic Team wants to move away from her being a creepy stalker, then sure. I agree, it's an overused gag.

They can make her behave more mature around Sonic in later games.

We just don't want Sonic Team to pretend it never happened. Team Sonic Racing she never flirts at all with Sonic, Sonic Twitter Takeover she behaves like she has some unrequited crush on him and in Sonic Frontiers a love story between koco's unfold before her and she never once compares it to her relationship with Sonic. (Her resolve to "go out and share her love to the world" felt more like a subtle break-up speech with Sonic.)

As much as I disagree that IDW Sonic is canon to the games, IDW Sonic (or at least Ian Flynn) written Amy's feelings and maturity for Sonic better than he did for the games.

Also, can you imagine if we did get Sonic Adventure remakes, and they pull this poop with Amy in them?

And my gripe isn't just with Amy, if Sonic Team can get away pulling this crud with Amy, who else can they do this with? Imagine if none of this happened in favour of a cowardly Tails depicted here? Or if Dr. Eggman is depicted more of a soft-hearted misunderstood troublemaker than a proper villain?

Imagine if we finally get a Sonic Adventure remake, but with all these changes put into place? Amy follows Sonic just for help with her bird, Dr. Eggman doesn't attempt to blow up Station Square because that would be mean, thus leaving Tails story unresolved and no one credits him as a hero.

I ain't gonna post spoilers, but after playing a bit of SXSG, I admit I got worked up for nothing.

She still cares for Sonic, just with cupcakes. I'm just glad I won't have it hanging over me throughout 2025.

Oh no!

Anyway.

Don't forget her Classic Sonic cutscene in the rewrite
