![]() ![]() He does what HE thinks is right because he stands up for what he believes in, and he doesn’t do good because he HAS to be the hero, he does it because he WANTS to. The way that he doesn’t do good because its his duty or because he knows all that is good and all that is bad. His way of thinking really struck a chord with me. I stopped worrying about school and stopped hating myself so harshly all the time and became a lot more laidback.Īnd then theres just Sonic being inspiring as all hell. Thats when I knew that nothing else was important right now than to simply enjoy being alive, and enjoy being alive with other people. I know its kinda sad but… Thats why we have to live life to the fullest in the time we have! At least… Thats what I figure!” Once Sonic defeats her, his way of explaining his view on the matter is like my number 1 sonic moment of all time and nothing will ever change that. She hated the fact that things must eventually come to an end. She knew what lied in store for the entire world and it saddened her. Shes not evil like Eggman, she simply disagrees with Sonic and has an ideology that clashed with his. “Isn’t there more to life than being intelligent? Isn’t there more to life than being the best?”Īnd then you have Merlina, the twist villain at the end that is truly the VERY FIRST morally ambiguous antagonist in the whole franchise. Soon enough, I changed things around a bit with that last sentence and got the answer to one of my greatest fears. ![]() “Isn’t there more to life than serving a king?” “A knight that can’t serve his king is unfit to live.” Hearing Knuck- Oh, sorry… Sir Gawain wanting to literally END HIS OWN LIFE for losing a single duel against Sonic, and hearing Sonic’s response to that changed something in me. Some of Sonic’s lines destroyed parts of my self-doubt. The characterization of Sonic in that game literally changed my outlook on life. What does it even mean to have feelings or worrying for everyday issues, both emotional and practical, when in the end it doesnt change the fact that everyone is going to die and no one will even know Humanity was there in the first place? Sure, I may compare to everyone else because my grades in school were pitiful and I seemingly only existed to be the bottom of the barrel, but does that even matter?Īnd thats when I started to remember that one game I played when I was a kid, Sonic and the Black Knight. I was going through the lowest point of my life (at least so far) about 2 years ago, and I was starting to question what is even the point in doing anything. You’re Yoshi.Sonic for single handedly erradicating my fear of death and nihilist way of seeing life. Now get out of here before you start trying to figure out what Mario character you are. Big has an unmatched fishing ability and has an undying dedication to his friend Froggy. Big? Big The Cat? Are you kidding me? Not a fucking chance. I see you scrambling around, trying to find even a side character that you could slip into. Yours is because you were placed in gifted classes. His emotional immaturity is due to seeing his only family murdered in front of him. Let me guess, do you think you’re Shadow? You wish. ![]() Not to mention, you don’t even have one tail, let alone two. Tails wouldn’t let his fear of an awkward social situation stop him, unlike you. You couldn’t even finish typing up that text to your friend you haven’t talked to in a while. Tails has the courage to never give up and follows Sonic through even the most dangerous situations. Yes, Tails, the 8-year-old genius with a pilot’s license. “Well, maybe not Sonic, but I could be Tails!” I hear you say. Sonic overcomes world-ending catastrophes every other Tuesday, while you get into Twitter arguments about how long his quills should be. What are you doing? Taking a quiz, trying to reach some labored form of self-understanding through an online quiz telling you which ’90s video game character you are. Oh, I’m sorry, did you think otherwise? Did you really expect to be Sonic? He’s a goddamn hero who has saved the world more times than he can count. Unfortunately, you aren’t even half the person most Sonic characters are and you never could be. It’s only natural to think that your personality could match up with one of the colorful critters.
