E-123 Omega - The Final Piece of Team Dark | Unscripted Chatter

Team Dark wouldn't be complete without the tank of destruction that is Omega.

[simmy]

Omega is also just the best in the current run of the IDW comics. He's got character, heart, and a unique sense of humor none of the others do. When his body is destroyed during an invasion, Tails promises he'll build him a new body as soon as he has some time, and Omega responds: "Give me jaws, I will bite their ankles."

[SilverWho]

I really like Omega. He is easily one of the coolest characters in the franchise in my opinion.

[MetaDHedge]

I love how he has a huge crush on Blaze in the comics because she destroys things too. Brings some really nice personality to him

[theoryoftheinnocent]

Rather ironic that Omega's debut involves him being wasted considering his current state of affairs.

[MegaGlassguy]

To this day, I still can't shake up how much of a waste it was to NOT have Tails and Omega team up. It's such a great way to expand the two characters by having them interact with people they're not used to. As much as I love Team Dark and certainly don't think they should disband, I think there's some weird curse about Sonic characters in general where for some reason they don't want them to interact on their own with anyone outside their respective team, which is a darn shame. I'd love a Team Dark spin-off and even more so if they gave each member of the trio some stand-alone moments, like going on separate missions or interacting with old/new characters.

idk how someone can't like omega, he is just too fun in personality

[SaiyanGamer]

I'm also reminded of Sonic Chronicles, where Shadow spent some of the early parts of the game searching for Omega and upon learning that he was defeated and damaged, he vowed revenge. And when joining the party, if you refuse to rescue Omega, Shadow says he'll be "very upset". He also openly admits that Omega is his friend.

Team Dark, the only thing Sonic '06 got completely right.

[canaldecasta]

His design is like... top notch.
I.. i just love it.

Shadow: The serious Sonic
Rouge: The brains & the heart of the Team
Omega: In the First age, in the first battle there was the Badnik Slayer

06 gets a lot of hate, and some of it is very deserving, however team dark's story was done amazingly well. Another year in development, some removals such as Elise entirely, the lifeless NPCs, and the annoying issue of blocking off a level until a pointless mission or item is gained(something that plagued Unleashed too), and 06 could have been a milestone in storytelling with Sonic characters that still echoes today. Unfortunately, we know it was the opposite, and SEGA went hard with avoiding everything that 06 attempted.

I like the acknowledgement of the E-series in Sonic Heroes. By that I mean, if you score on a stage poorly sometimes Omega will say "I couldn't even beat Gamma or Beta." Or something like that.
If he had a solo role, I would want to see more of that. Him learning from his ancestors pretty much.

[mathiasbonneton]

Though I like Omega, it's hard to see him come back seen as SEGA aren't handling their characters properly

[Birzt]

My boy is here.
Omega has to be at least my 2nd favorite character.

[jacent.]

I'd love for Omega to have his own standalone storyline. He's got a lot of potential, since we saw very little of him. Sure, he hates Eggman, but he does care about Team Dark as a whole, so giving him a game where he focuses on saving them would be a fun time. Team Dark as a whole needs a standalone game to explore their camaraderie more. There's a lot that can be done there, especially since we only ever see them as side characters.

[Hey-Its-Dingo]

Omega is one of the characters that I feel the IDW comics got right, with a few minor inconsistencies. In those, he is a character who shows a lot of bravado, but never attacks innocent people. He blows throw the Zombots, but he does his best to protect the survivors as well. Shadow suffered from the Colors era curse pretty bad, but Rouge and Omega are written really well. Plus Omega is really funny in IDW Sonic. "I am not lonely. I am ENRAGED." Is a pretty good summary of him, he won't say it, and I doubt they'll elaborate on the line, but to me, it felt like he was livid that one of his friends fell to the Zombots while he was fending them off. (Spoilers: it was Shadow because he was written really poorly)

[jackattacktron]

He protect
He attacks
But most importantly
He wants to break Eggman’s back

[NinjaKingAce]

In Sonic Chronicles, Shadow's main motivation, in the first half of the game, is to rescue Omega. He puts Omega's rescue as his first priority, even over saving the world

[SalaComMander]

Omega has always been in my top favorite characters, at points taking my #1 spot, but it really feels like he's just empty fanservice now. He's like Green Hill Zone in robot form. "Look, Sonic fans! It's Omega! We think you like Omega, right?"

One thing I would love for them to canonize is his crush on Blaze from the Archie comics. That was absolute gold, and it really humanized Omega. He's so adorable when he's around her.

1:48 The thing about that line is that, besides not being the only one in that battle, in the japanese version his other line roughly translates to "How DARE you do that to my support?! I will annihilate you!" (the english counterpart is simply "You will be completely eliminated!")
