The end really hits how Robotnik’s fear became true: he became his father in a way. Now just ridiculing his “son” just like Harold did to him when he was young, blaming his own mistakes on his son. Amazing video!

[kingbash]

Always felt that Metal Sonic’s character never got the attention and appreciation he could have from Sega, so this really is the best way to show his surprisingly layered personality.

[fnafrules]

I'm wondering if there's any deeper meaning to how Sonic's drawn throughout this. Note how he's drawn in the same evil gremlin-esc. look in the Eggman biography video, yet during Sonic Heroes (When Metal isn't under Eggman's control) Sonic's drawn normally...

[comicfan]

Please tell me I’m not the only one who thinks a Metal Sonic is the best villain from this franchise. I mean he’s literally the perfect dark reflection of sonic. Sonic is all about freedom, adventure, protecting nature and its animals, all with the cocky attitude, while Metal is artificial, cold, calculating, and does most of his work quietly.

[anaveragehedgehog]

I love how Metal views Sonic as a villain due to Sonic looking like a monster at first but slowly Sonic looks more normal meaning that Metal is starting to view Sonic differently

[mclekfkeiwdisidido]

Robotnik's backstory was sad but had a hopeful ending
Metal's is pure depression

[sirmeowableslifeafter]

When he said "I give up" it hit hard as hell, how do you put so much emotional impact into one sentence

[fudgway]

I feel like the reason why sonic looks like an evil gremlin at first, is because that’s how Metal viewed Sonic, an inferior, disgusting being. After years of Metal being defeated by Sonic, he realises that Sonic is truly superior to Metal, which is why Sonic is drawn normally. Metal realised he was just going to be defeated again and again, so he realised that he couldn’t beat Sonic. Sonic was the superior, and not a weak, ugly villain. Just a theory though.

[Yuti]

I like how Metal Sonic’s brightest moment, the Stardust Speedway race, mirrored Robotnik’s time at the theme park, hoping it would last forever

[ajthe]

This gave him more character than the games.
Peak story telling

[TheTokuMemer]

I love the detail that when Metal revolted against Eggman Sonic and friends looked normal, almost like Eggman programmed Metal to see Sonic as a villain

[lexcentrique]

Interesting detail: Knuckles is one of the rare ones to not change that much from his original expressions. He just looks angry.
The same way Eggman could convince Knuckles to help him. He doesn't seem to view Knuckles as much of a pest, as they could cooperate in the past.

[marquiseemthembuu]

" Imagine conquering the world and continuing to lose. Couldn't be me, literally."
My favorite line

[mutalkai]

After 5 long years, you made something serious again, and just like Eggman's history, I love it! After watching those 2 videos I once again realise that fans can do much better than SEGA was ever able to.

[volnartheunforgiving]

"Fairness is a social construct, made to protect the weak from the strong" is such a raw quote
Also, I enjoy that you use the name Heracles, and love the idea that Metal Sonic's shapeshifter powers were achieved by devouring Chao
The ending was extremely depressing though, but it was perfect in that way
I like how Eggman's treatment of Metal is subtly like how he was treated by his own father

[spookyscarysteve]

Man, Seeing Eggman go… rather insane… is painful. If he learned he made Metal before Sonic drove him mad, he’d want to be friends with him! Eggman would probably be ecstatic that he made a robot who could think, who could FEEL! Eggman would hopefully treat Metal better- like a son, even! It’s sad that he fell into his own madness, and dragged Metal with him

[BlueSpeed]

I like how the moment that metal Sonic starts seeing himself as evil that's when Sonic himself stops looking like an ugly monster and actually starts looking more like the one from the video games that's a really good touch

[spookyscarysteve]

This reminds me of the image from one of the comics, where robotnik is repairing Metal, asks ‘Did ya atleast hit him’ or something along those lines. Metal gives a thumbs up, and Eggman says ‘Thata boy!’

I really hope that Robotnik and Metal will care for eachother in this..

[JPComenta]

As with the Eggman version, I like to see how they see the facts of the games, in their own way, and how they see the characters. It also caught my attention, that after adventure 2, sonic, tails, knuckles, amy, rouge ect... now they are not exaggerations, but rather they are more similar to their official designs. I guess maybe it's because metal already sees those characters as heroes, or something.

[ashvolante]

It’s even cooler when you get to see the whole projects process from behind the scenes. Good job as always! 🔵🤖
