I feel like he could've specifically baited Tails just to deal a blow to his ego, knowing that he struggled with not being sure he could ever be as good as Sonic. This was a big point of his story in Adventure 1 and was the main focus of his theme song, too. He killed Tails' idol right in front of him and then made him feel like it was his fault in order to try and ruin the progress he made for himself, but his response was just to get fired up over Sonic's last wishes and battle Eggman anyways; it also showcases a bit of Eggman's main flaw as a character, his hubris, and how he underestimated his rival in Adventure 2, Tails. It's a wonderfully complex cutscene and the somewhat cheesy but lovably over-the-top storytelling is one of the prime reasons I love Adventure 2 so much.

Another interesting thing about the dark story is that their version of this cutscene doesn't show Sonic's inernal monologue in the rocket after it launches, leading you to believe that he does indeed just blow up. You wouldn't know the wiser as to how he escapes until you use context clues in the dark story's last boss fight or played the hero story.

"Because you just told me, Fox boy." Probably one of the few times Eggman uses his 300IQ to trick someone *other* *than* Knuckles.

This isn't anything new. Sonic was tricked many times before and after SA2. In Sonic 1, Dr. Eggman led him into a trap in Scrap Brain zone, forcing us in another Sonic Labyrinth zone again. In Sonic & Knuckles, there was a capsule that was actually a boss in Flying Battery zone act 2. In Sonic Adventure, he tricked Sonic and Tails to let their guard down when they defeated Egg Hornet, allowing him to steal the Emerald from Tails. In Sonic Heroes, Metal Sonic disguised himself as his creator to, and I quote by Sonic himself, "drat, a trap to stall for time"! In Sonic Battle, he came up to Sonic & Tails, and invited them to the Death Egg as a back up plan, after he failed to capture Emerl, which Sonic thought it was a good idea to send Emerl up there, which got him killed after Eggman reprogrammed him. In Sonic Riders, Sonic joins a racing tournament to battle Jet, and all Sonic needed to enter was give him the chaos emeralds, which Knuckles was suspicious of (not my favorite portrayal of Sonic, tbh). In Sonic 06, Dr. Eggman asked for the chaos emerald again for Elise, and they knew it was a trap, but Sonic went anyways, and got sent to the future. Sonic Unleashed, Dr. Eggman led Super Sonic into a trap thanks to his cockiness again, which turned him into a werehog. Sonic is well aware Dr. Eggman is deceptive because he's known him longer than Knuckles. But he's been tricked way more times than Knuckles has, and that's why he's wiser than him. At the time, Knuckles didn't know who Sonic and Eggman were, but even he's picked up on who is the most trusting in games like Sonic Heroes, Riders, and Zero Gravity. It's nice to see Knuckles' character development. Dr. Eggman is a great villain. He has an IQ of 300, always has a back up plan which makes him unpredictable, and is one of the most deceptive characters in the Sonic universe.

Not only was Eggman a threat here, but he *also* showed the most humanity and depth of all his appearances (in the games at least; X and Boom make him *way* more sympathetic than the games do). That little quiet moment where he reflected on his childhood hero trying to destroy the world... being willing to actually have a civil conversation with his enemies as he comes to terms with his own disillusionment with Professor Gerald... Like, yes, people go on about what a great villain Eggman was in SA2, and they're right. But let's not also forget what a nuanced *person* he was here too. This was a rare glimpse at an Eggman who did more than menacingly cackle or shout threats and insults. It was Eggman in a state of emotional vulnerability and humanity, and I wish we'd get to see that side of him a bit more often.

I personally would Like to Know Eggmans Motives in the Game Universe. Archies Eggman/ Robotnik was a power hungry Psycho long before he became Robotnik. And Robotnik in Sonic the Comic was Actually a Humanitarian corrupted by the Chaos Emeralds power and turned into a Monster. But we Never Learn Why Eggman wants to rule the world in the games, he isn't Heartlessly Evil like Archie Eggman, and he started his Career in villainy before he even came in contact with the emeralds, so what drives him? Is it because he wants to overthrow the Corrupted Government? After SA2 that would make sense given what GUN did to his Grandfather and Cousin. (Especially after the Events of Shadow The Hedgehog where we learn that Gun stormed the Ark out of a Misunderstanding, they thought Proffessor Gerald was Building the Eclipse Cannon to take over the world but it was built so Shadow could use it to Destroy the Black Comet when it returned.) But back to the point I want to Know Eggmans Motives behind his Career in Villany

I like Sonic's "last words" to them as well. Mostly because I admire the character development they all had in Sonic Adventure that carries over into 2. Tails' story in SA was about having the courage to do things on his own without Sonic. He proved he could, so now Sonic trusts him to finish their mission on his own. Amy learned to be a hero in her own right, even standing up to Sonic and getting in his way to protect Gamma. Even though she's still a damsel in distress in this situation, he knows that she's tougher than she seems and she can take care of herself. This is exactly what a good sequel should do. Character growth isn't left behind or forgotten. Use it!

Also, another thing I noticed. Aside from Eggman potentially having heard their communication, another thing that could have tipped him off was Sonic's cocky smile & banter as he was going to give the Emerald to him. Sure, Sonic is usually cocky, but even Eggman knows that he will get serious if the situation looked dire enough. However, Sonic walked over, smug as all hell and even giving him the "You turned into a BIG time villain, Doctor!" tease, about to give Eggman the most powerful gem in existence. Sonic's calm & smug attitude during the situation is likely what made Eggman 100% sure that something wasn't right with the Emerald.

Ahmad Kazan calm down it’s just a game.

I'm so glad the Adventure games, especially Adventure 2, have been getting much more positive attention lately. Given how much Sonic Team pays attention to what the internet says about Sonic (to a fault), I'm hoping this could mean a new game in the future that's more along the lines of SA2. But even if that doesn't happen, I'm still enjoying the Adventure renaissance!

I really like Eggman in this scene, but i wanna talk about Tails here too. Sure, he might be one of the smartest characters in the sonic universe but he is still an 8 year old that has flaws. But what i love about this scene so much, is that Tails inmediately starts to fight Eggman after he 'killed' Sonic. No cowering in fear, no "HeLp mE SonIC". You straight up fight Eggman.

The look on Amy’s face as Sonic is saying his goodbyes is heart-wrenching.

Darker and eggier Eggman is best Eggman according to this scene.

This is why the Adventure games are so beloved. They were catered to an older audience, which shows Sonic at his best. I hate the childish direction this franchise has taken.

Tails's IQ literally dropped to 0 when eggman tricked him I can really tell

The recent love the Adventure games are getting puts a smile in my face

There’s another awesome moment here for tails’ defiance. This isn’t just a matter of Tails losing his best friend. This is them losing their last hope of stopping Eggman, and now millions of people are going to die, all because he got ahead of himself. No one would fault him for breaking down here, for just collapsing in a quiet despair. But he doesn’t. Because even if he doesn’t think he can do it… even if he can’t believe in himself…. Sonic _did._ and if Sonic believes in him, that’s enough.

One of my favorite parts about this scene is how Amy gets captured is the first time there's a consequence for the running gag of Sonic and Tails leaving her behind. At this point in the game, Amy getting left behind has been a running joke, with it happening 4 times beforehand(before Prison Island, before Metal Harbor, before Mission Street, and before Tails goes after the President). Once they get on the ARK, Sonic & Tails ditch again in order to stop the Eclipse Cannon, expecting the plan to go off without a hitch except, because Eggman saw them in the Dark Story, he knew they left Amy by herself and took advantage of that, leading to the rest of the scene. And then the game has her be left behind again in the Last Story, with her getting left behind again allowing her to convince Shadow to help the others save the planet.

SA2 is an underrated gem, story-wise. There's so much cool stuff hidden under all that cheese.

This and the scene with sonic talking about his love for adventure with shadow. Are the two best scenes

This is the best cutscene in the franchise and its not even close. Bring back tension and personal stakes back. While you're at it Sonic Team bring back Eggman feeling like a credible threat instead of making him a joke.

You also should've mentioned that that nod Tails gives helped confirm that notion for Eggman

I miss this Eggman SO MUCH!!!

voice acting aside, this is some clever writing.

You've turned into big time villain Doctor

You didn't even mention my favorite part of this cutscene! I love the characterization of Tails at the end. In Sonic Adventure 1, Tails believed in himself and beat Eggman which allowed him to be a hero just like Sonic who he aims to be just like. Now here, Sonic leaves Eggman - and the whole world, by extension - as his responsibility. Tails finally achieved his dream of being just like Sonic, and the result is the sudden fierce determination we see for Tails to beat Eggman and avenge his lost friend. Sonic games aren't exactly big on character arcs, but I love Tails's. People always bring up Shadow's arc, but I think Tails has a lot more of a relatable and satisfying arc. Also, in Crazy Gadget, if you spend ten minutes in the level then Eggman will come on the radio and say, "Sonic, if you don't get here right now, Amy WILL die!" It's such an intense line that reveals the severity of the situation. I know Eggman is a really silly character at times, especially in more modern iterations, but lines like that are why I think Adventure era Eggman is actually pretty menacing.

3:46 i want a compilation of Sonic looking pissed

Sonic's cutscene afterwards is great too. Even though he knows the emeralds really well by now, not even *he* is sure that he can pull off Chaos Control using the fake. It's a pretty long distance back to the exterior of the colony too, since the capsule is traveling so quickly. And though we don't see it, we know that Sonic actually keeps that fake emerald (at least in the Dark story) because both Sonic and Shadow can use Chaos Control in the fight, depending on which storyline you're playing. Since there's no way he has an emerald at the time, Shadow probably has a reserve of Chaos energy or knows Chaos Control well enough to teleport very short distances without an Emerald. I doubt that Sonic would have that ability having used it only once, though. I'm enjoying these videos. Most of your recent videos have been pretty long, so this is good evidence that you can also convey your ideas in a more short-form, concise method, and I hope you continue to do some of that after this month.

What made this so epic was this was the first (and as far as I know only) time I saw Eggman holding a gun let alone to Amy’s head.

This scene is not only brilliant by itself but for the whole build before handed, there are many things leading for this cutscene, and while it was playing, many things happened too First of all the elements: Eggman and his tools, Sonic/Tails and their own tools, Amy, and both a real and a fake emerald First: Eggman was watching the records from when Sonic and Tails was discussing something, Tails was holding the last chaos emerald, in Eggman's POV, he wasn't able to paint a figure with that alone, the most he can figure is: They have a chaos emerald and the possibility for it be rigged in some way Second: Eggman was receiving two signals from presumable one chaos emerald, since the others six was already plugged in, he assumed they can have both a real and a fake, but the machine can't tell which one is it, since Tails made the artificial to be as real as it can get, except it can screw everything if plugged in the place of the real one, Eggman was sure that the fake emerald can be a deal breaker to his plans, because there wasn't any reason to create a fake if not with the intention to be rigged Third: Eggman decides that the best way to tell which one is which, is to reunite both Tails and Sonic in one place, since one of the emeralds signals was moving towards the "Battery" of the eclipse cannon, and the other become stationary somewhere, he decides to track the stationary signal, which ends up to be Tails with Amy by his side, so Eggman sees this as a golden opportunity to force both Sonic and Tails to be in the same place at the same time. And is here that you can say this whole scene starts to play out. Fourth: Eggman manages to take Amy as hostage and hijack the signal of Tails and Sonic, possible eavesdropping the talk of both before Tails, Tails and demands Sonic to meet them after the crazy gadget, probably Eggman is leading the way to the place with Amy as hostage and Tails at front, we don't know how much time it takes to Sonic get to the start of the Crazy Gadget, so in this ellipse of time Eggman was already midway or near the place while Sonic was in the start of the stage. Fifth: When Eggman tracks him at the start of the stage he gives his first advice, we don't know how much time canonically passed until Sonic ends the stage, but pretty sure after the second threat he already is in the meeting point, just waiting, probably while Sonic is travelling through the stage, Eggman was trying to force Tails to give him the answer, because if one fail, the other still has his share of secrets, maybe he was even trying to get something from Amy too Sixth: Sonic finally made in one piece to the meeting room choose by Eggman, and try to outsmart him, and Tails nods to him thinking the same, since they know which one is holding the real deal, Eggman demand to Sonic put the emerald in the middle, and Sonic go for it, even compliment his foe, something so interest, but so out of character of his nemesis, but there is a reason he chooses this room, it is because he already has laid all the pieces for his game, and he was already near his conclusion, and with his oldest stone on the shoes right in the middle, he finally did a significant move Seventh: As his enemy was there static of surprise, he will do something that can either grant him the glory or be his gravest mistake, he will do a bold claim while everyone has little to no time to think rationally about a proper response, affected by the surprise effect, a bluff per se, he will get a response no matter what, either to guarantee his own deductions or to indicate who is the one holding the truest seventh emerald, any second more he will go for the kill regards the consequences, and then from the smartest mouth besides himself, he obtains what he wants, and smugly thanks for the answer, demolishing any hope Tails had, and the only fault here is Tails own naivety, showing to them that talent and intelligence isn't enough to beat his own wisdom Eighth: Now knowing the truth, after destroying Tails ego, he allows his defeated enemy say his last words, words of incentive to both his friends, after this, the triumphant Eggman sentence Sonic's demise, properly dismissing his oldest arch-enemy while he is presumable exploded in the space, grieving, Amy falls in the ground, After such words, Tails creates enough resolve and courage to avenge his fallen friend and to accomplish what they started, neutralize the threat at any cost And the battle starts...

sonic also said “you’ve turned into a big time villian doctor” with a snarky attitude, giving away that he knew something that eggman didn’t

3:30 is the greatest moment for tails

I also like the last two lines from Amy and Tails. Amy's "Sonic!" Into defeated crying is just exemplary voice work. Especially for a game in 2001. But it's Tails here that really blows me away. With Sonic gone and Eggman having the upper hand he almost indignantly says that if Tails gives him the real chaos emerald he'll release them both. Tails doesn't even hear this. Focused only on the last words of encouragement given to him by his best friend. Give him the last chaos emerald? Are you kidding? You have just made the biggest mistake of your life and Tails is going to show how powerless you really are!

I love how you can see a chaos control blast before the explosion before the explosion 💥

I absolutely love this scene because as you point out, it's a high speed game of wits. >Most would assume eggman is at the advantage cause hostage situation >Sonic tries to use this to his advantage to make the swapout >Eggman planned for a potential swapout, and sets up a trap to confirm. After all... They may have opted to still do something with the REAL emerald as a REAL hostage exchange. >Tails and sonic who are emotionally strained right at this moment through panic slip up, losing this back and forth Also love the real "Pull the rug on everybody" moment here; Eggman frames the ENTIRE situation as a normal hostage exchange. Which isn't too crazy given the circumstance. Hold person at gunpoint, keep safe distance at opposite sides and exchange everything at the middle of the room, and then back away (Having 1 extra step here is key, people are now anticipating that extra step, allowing the bait and switch to occur). He makes himself perceived as a threat, but making everybody anticipate something else altogether.

yknow that really makes sense, i played through sa2b earlier this year and was really confused why eggman was so paranoid about them using a fake emerald. i mean it worked in his favor during this scene but still it made little to no sense for him to just be paranoid. im glad this video popped up for me to get that clarity lol. i guess sa2's writing isnt as nonsensical as i thought!

It really isn't! Sure there's a couple things that aren't airtight, but isn't that the case with most stories?

Great video and thank you for taking the time to highlight what made it genuinely so great. I also adore the part where once Sonic has returned after using chaos control, in the lead up to the final showdown with Shadow, Sonic and Shadow just have a conversation that borders on a friendly rivalry. It's a scene full of great dialogue and character beats and is those 2 characters at some of their absolute best.

I think another amazing thing about this cutscene is that is exemplifies the theme of this game. This entire game asks you to question what is real and what is fake, what is the original and what is the copy. That's the point of Sonic and Shadow's dynamic, you constantly asking who is the original and who is the fake, the characters are asking this two. Both hedgehogs feels so stronger that the other one is a faker because how can it be that there are two similar looking hedgehogs with the same powers of super speed? The player automatically think Sonic is real at first and that Shadow is the fake because Sonic has been around for 10 years and Shadow just got introduced. But this initially assumption is damaged when Shadow proves he can do things Sonic simply can't like Chaos Control. This hints at Sonic being a fake because as a copy he would be inferior to the original. And later in the game we learn that Shadow is older than Sonic and this is yet more evidence that Sonic is somehow a newer copy of Shadow. And the Real and Rake Chaos Emeralds mimic this dynamic. One is fake and the other is real. And just like Shadow, Sonic was ejected from the space colony is a capsule. But the crazy thing is that later in the cutscene, even though the Chaos Emeralds is a fake is can still do Chaos Control. It's almost like the game is telling you it's ok to be a copy because you can still do what the original can, like you can be your own individual regardless. And that's pretty much the conclusions that both Shadow and Sonic reach. Neither of them ever figure out who is the fake if any of them even are a fake. Rogue tries to convince Shadow that he might be fake but it doesn't mater to him. He says "It's still me, Shadow". His identity and belief in himself is so strong that he simply does not care if he is a copy. Sonic sums it pretty much hate same way to. When asked by Shadow "Who are you?", Sonic answers with "What you see is what you get! Just a guy who loves adventure!" That line pretty much the entire message of the game. It doesn't matter who you are or what powers you have. It doesn't matter if you are the original or a copy. All that that matters is that you know who you are and have belief in your identity because being a copy doesn't define you, *it's ultimately who you chose to be that makes you who you are.* And I thinks that's a pretty powerful message for a game about a blue hedgehog that loves adventure. ;-)

This video stood in my recomendations for some time and I finally watched it. Outstanding scene review, will probably sub

Eggman always knew there was a fake emerald. In the Dark Story, Eggman got two yellow emeralds (he already had 6) on his radar when Sonic, Tails and Amy got onto the Ark. This is what tipped Eggman off to the fake emerald. Not what you guessed.

@growasowa3444

4 жыл бұрын

Well, thanks to that, Eggman knows that there is a fake emerald, but that's it - he doesn't know yet why. His ambush on Tails yields further information - that Sonic is supposed to place an emerald somewhere. Eggman doesn't know for sure if Sonic is holding the fake one, but that seems very likely, hence the gambit, since if Eggman is wrong and Sonic actually has the real one, that will tear apart his plan.

These daily uploads give me something to look forward to every day :)

Eggman was a straight GANGSTA in this scene. Definitely one of the highlights of his career

i think we can all agree that continuity would have been amazing; seeing characters develop and evolve from game to game would have been nice to see, instead of them being thrown away in favour of new ideas. people like eggman could have benefitted from concequences to his actions and even changing up his plan; seeing him return more deadly than ever and with more killer intent than before

I had never had seen a person talk about a cutscene like this.
