As an utter nerd for the Arthurian tales I have to give some bonus fun facts about how much this games gets right first of Knight of the wind changed lyrics, the origonal plan was to have the line "In a rage I slay" (any many covers use this version cause thats whats on google ) but the acctual in game one is "In a rage I save" because if you strike with Excalibur in rage it shatters second of all is Caliburn being the sword in the stone because yes despite what disney and most movies do Excalibur is not the sword in the stone Caliburn is and that brings me to the 3rd point Excalibur is forged by the lady of the lake from the broken caliburn (close to what we get in game but diffrent to) Forth is the use of fairway Avalon as the final battle ground for Arthur as upon Arthurs death his soul goes to Avalon waiting to return in the kingdoms time of need

To be fair, it seems to move better than Secret Rings (IE: No motion controls for movement)

Story wise this game also has at least one stroke of genius. When Sonic is undergoing the knight trials and encounters Nimue in disguise as a child, Caliburn insists on continuing the trials rather than save the villagers. This seems like a plot hole since Caliburn should know that helping here would qualify for the trial of compassion. But I think there is more to it than that. I think Caliburn was testing Sonic to find out if he had the potential to be more than just a knight. Remember, Caliburn is actually Excalibur. Excalibur is the sword of a king, not the sword of a knight. At the end, when Sonic is fighting Merlina and is getting demolished by her, all the other knights of the round table beg Sonic to run away. Sonic's refusal to do so is what triggers Caliburns transformation into Excalibur. It would not be dishonorable for a knight to flee from such a one-sided and hopeless battle. But Caliburn expects a king to fight for his people to the bitter end. Sonic was willing to do so and thus proved himself worthy.

And I have to mention this again, I am extremely disappointed that prime was confirmed canon and takes place in the future..Like it really doesn't make sense, and It doesn't seem to take that much far into the future, from battling Titans to literal babies piloting fodder Mechs; Sonic's power is heavily lowballed and isn't as powerful as he should if this show is supposed to be canon, his character took a downgrade in maturity and Intellect for that matter and lastly but worst rougue was censored.

In this frame, Caliburn has yet to spawn in, leaving Sonic in a pretty awkward looking position.

That explains why Caliburn flickers at an alternating frequency to Sonic: the game treats the sword as a separate entity, even down to the Invulnerability Frames animation. Personally, I thought that most of Sonic's character model was performing an A-pose (which is basically just a more natural-looking default pose that some software uses instead of the T-pose), while his right arm is the only thing in its own unique position. If his default starting animation has him pulling a sword out of the ground, then everything makes sense.

The Wii was fully capable of accepting update patches for games, but it was a pain in the ass that Nintendo never really used much because (apparently, I never had to download it) you had to intentionally look for the patch and download it manually, where it would obtrusively sit as a "channel" on your home screen. If I recall, Skyward Sword had a patch available to fix a progression-stopping bug that only happened if you talked to a character in a certain area, then left instead of moving forward after the conversation, causing his dialogue to never update and preventing him from moving to other locations I needs to be in. I don't remember the specifics, just people joking about having to download an entire channel for a bugfix instead of it being automatically applied like on the PS3 and 360.

06 is non cannon for blaze’s character. Since rush came out first and adventure continued her character storyline. Sonic knows blaze, generation confirms this and silver doesn’t know her. Blaze has a very messy back story. I just assume sonic is polite in this since sonic used to never have feelings for Amy, thus seeing her as a friend while he knows blaze is a more shy person. Easy to embarrass.

2:59 It’s not a T pose but his starting animation, this is easily seen in the early game where he pulls out the rusty sword out from the ground before blasting off. It’s the default “stage start” pose if you will.

There are some official renders and images of Sonic with the sword planted on the ground, so you're probably right

One of my favorite details in Sonic and the Black Knight is Galahad's sword. What's so special about it? Galahad's sword strongly resembles a cinquedea, which is a type of long dagger/short sword used by Italian civilians. Silver's name was originally Venice, because Soleanna, which was the main location in his debut game, was based on Venice, Italy. So Sega really decided to hammer home Silver's Italy-themed origins with Galahad's sword, and I absolutely love it. Similarly, Lamorak's swords are based on Jet's bashosens (his war fans that are made of his feathers).

The kick is required for some side missions. Very strange how obscure it is. Gallahad in arthurian legend is the illegitimate son of Lancelot. Wonder if that has any implications...

Black Knight was a great game that had an unfortunate release Thanks to the travesties of Sonic 06 and Secret Rings, Black Knight (along with Unleashed) was scoffed at when it were released.

SatBK is the most underrated Sonic game ever. Edit: Im assuming that the sword and Sonic flickering at different instances is intentional. It's meant to show that Caliburn is his own thing; sure, he and Sonic can work together, but Caliburn has his own conciousness and, therefore, his own health.

My favourite sonic game, it's actually goated and i dream of a remake happening one day.

Cool trick i found: While using soul surge on the ground, strike exactly as the enemy jumps into the air. Sonics speed will launch him into the air before diving down and slaying the foe in one of the coolest attacks in the game.

Another good video. Assuming Secret Rings is next. I'm looking forward to it. And ofc, Have a Good Christmas.

2:40 It's probably an error, but maybe there flickering at different times since technically there two living things (For Context Caliburn, Sonic's Sword is sentient and can talk) and at 2:55 That's the first part of Sonic's animation when you start a level (The one where he pulls Caliburn out of the ground to reference the Sword and the Stone) except Caliburn doesn't load at the same time as Sonic for some reason

In the same mission and spot where gawain can fly out of bounds, using sonic I found out you can jump back at a specific point just as the ray of light is disappearing and you will stand on solid ground mid-air. You can backtrack to the beginning of the ray that's not there anymore and if you keep walking forwards you will jump down from the air just as you would otherwise.

That was truly one of the outros of all time truly spectacular a 10/10 will watch again and recommend to freinds and family

I like how the last piece of trivia lists the names, each name being a continuation of the ideas of the last, like a sentence (Like, "with me" -> "I'm here" )

Has to have to disclaimer for his protection, what a brave soldier

One of my favourite Sonic games. Wish future game would have this much detail.

I love the fact there's a morality system(didn't know you could hurt the civilians 😅)

I absolutely loved sonic and the black knight! Ever since I was a kid, I’ve loved swords and medieval settings, so having sonic in one and using a sword, was a dream come true for me. Sonic and the black knight get’s nowhere near the amount of credit it deserves. Just after watching your video on if you can beat sonic and the black knight without the nunchuck, it made me want to play the game again. And now I finally beat every level in the game (not with 5 stars though, I suck too much to do that lol)

This video is AMAZING! I always loved SatBK so much! :)

Sonic and the black knight is one of my favorite games and seeing all these small details makes me love it even more

I love your content please keep doing it !

"This is a joke tier list" No need to apologize for having incredible taste

It’s nice to see someone else aside from myself who appreciates Sonic and the Black Knight. Good vid, you pointed out some stuff I didn’t notice. Though, I wonder what the game’s story would be like if the other two nights were a part of the main plot. Would have been interesting, I’m sure.

Nice outro. Loved the video.

I can tell a lot of time, love, and effort was put into your outro! Truly a masterpiece

That outro is preem. Top of the line stuff really. Good work. :>

I know this game has its issues but Black Knight has always been one of my top 5 favorite sonic games, I played it as a kid and loved the hell out of it, I figured it was just childish nostalgia so I played it again and had just as much fun if not more, this title needs so much more love than it got

That outro is wonderful thank you. Also thank you for the video, I never owned the Black Knight game but I did own the Secret Rings, I don't have many fond memories of the latter on account of the controls but I do remember having fun. I do wish they came out with another game in storybook fashion, it'd be interesting.

For a new channel, this has been nonstop banger after banger , keep up the good work my dude

Another detail, on King Arthur's Legend, Sir Gallahad (I'm not 100% sure how to write it) is Sir Lancelot's bastard son. This carries some weird implications to the Black Knight universe, like, the idea that Shadow did the deed is just weird to me

I didn't know characters other than Amy had unique jump sounds, very nice video 👍

You know im gonna have an exquisite rest of my day, hope the same for you. Also hilarious outro

I love it when people find things I missed when I was younger in games that I've played. Also 11/10 outro ;)

This game was my CHILDHOOD and I loved it so much. It had a HUGE impact on me and my future when it comes to the way I approach making music. I will forever appreciate it.

I love these videos you’ve been making 💖💖

I’m surprised you didn’t mention the fact that the colors of the fairies are almost all identical to the colors of the wisps used in Sonic Colors

Amazing outro, truly one of the finest works of art in the cinema industry ever created. Fo real though, this video was very informative and made me interested in a Sonic game I haven‘t heard about often. To be honest, I didn’t expect a game where the premise is „Sonic, but he has a sword“ to have this much attention to detail and an above-average level of research about mythology.

The 7 fairies feels like a direct reference to the 7 Chaos emeralds

Great video as always! Idea for a future vid came to me while watching this one: sonic riders without the board lol

Love the outro! (And the video in general)

Hearing anything about Black Knight always makes me happy! As someone who owns it and has love the story, music and overall feel of the game for so long it's always nice to hear it get complimented and not scorned.
