Since this video is still getting views I just want to say I don't make these types of videos anymore and would mean a lot to me if you check out my other content
the right animation in the new song really represents how truly in control he is, the goofiness is funny but also disturbing, not only that but the look of him just shows it. and it's very accurate to the PC port considering how powerful he truly was, even more powerful than the original sonic exe, and the fact in his down animation he closes his eyes and not paying attention is a good detail. if they make a whole mod just about him it would be 10x harder than the original sonic exe's songs
While Execution's ost is really good I honestly feel that Cycles goes way harder. I just love the sound of Lord X's voice, it's indescribable. bonus points for having a unique voice that isn't Tricky vocals edited too. But I even with those my biggest highlight has to be the sprites. That "Get a load of this guy" look he gives to Boyfriend is enough to make this Lord X my favorite one lmao. It's like he's taunting him or has some kind of sass.
A lot of people say Lord X isn’t scary, that’s the point of the new one, he’s not supposed to be scary like the old one makes him look. He’s more goofy in the new one because he likes to fuck with the game he originally came from and messes around with the player, he’s just mocking you cuz he’s self aware that it’s all just a game and doesn’t take anything seriously
I think both songs are great in their own way : - Execution presents you with a ferocious beast who's out for blood. Throughout the song, there's a feeling of violence, danger and dread, which the shrieking vocals help a lot. Unlike Sonic.EXE, he doesn't even try to toy with Boyfriend, just singing the entire time to go for the kill. - Cycles shows you an entity so powerful, it doesn't even bother taking Boyfriend seriously. It is so powerful, it is very much self-aware not only that he's in a game, but that YOU, the player, is in control. He isn't even bothered by you. In fact, one of his poses even mocks Boyfriend while directly facing you.
if you're talking about the left pose, then I wanna point out that lord x is only taunting the player to come closer, just like how he does in the PC port
In my opinion, all his poses are mocking boyfriend. The up pose is him doing an unusual stunt to say "Hey Boyfriend, bet you can't do this!". The down pose is him enjoying his vocals and the song in no intention of being scary, but annoying because he doesn't care. The left arrow is obvious, he's making a funny face as a taunt. The right arrow is another goofy face to not only look disturbing, but just plain rude. All these poses mix with trying to lure boyfriend to lash out or something.
A very noticeable difference is how Lord X's vocals in Cycles aren't the same as Execution's, which means they stopped using overfiltered tricky vocals.
Old Lord X is Trickys voice but louder and New Lord X is still Trickys voice but they made it a little calmer his voice just turned calm and old one is angry
What’s crazy is Joe himself took up the mantle to give the base poses, background, and animation. It explains why Lord X feels like himself here, it’s because in Joe’s canon… he’s a heavily experienced Sonic.exe.
@@TovaMaster Joe Swanson from Hit adult comedy series Family Guy which had 3 Emmy nominations and won an award in 2000 for outstanding voice over performance.
Execution's vibe is more like "I'm an evil creature and you'll be dead in a second", while Cycles is more like "Let me show you how worthless your existence is"
Cycles all the way man, his sprites, animation, background, vocals and all is perfect I'd say. Execution had alot going but in terms of how the song was charted, it was meh, considering some youtubers who played it were a bit upset that the song ended so soon. I think I cycles was a huge step forward, quite literally stepping every aspect of what execution was, into something better.
Both of em are good and bad in their ways,mainly good, for example "cycles" background,animations and voices are incredible, but EXEcution have the best rythm, i wonder what will happen if we put the EXEcution rythm with the voice and background of the New versión 🤔
I prefer the new one, Lord X actually got some personality and evolved from his first version "ooo i'am spooky i'am gonna kill you" guy into chill smug demon who's mocking boyfriend.
Your actually completely right on the second one, Sonic exe started out as the classic demonic monster who seeks destruction, the PC Port for sonic exe turned him into a terrifying jokester who used his eldritch lovecraftian powers to multilate the PLAYER. His left arrow sprite is the same face from when your loading up the pc, goes from the iconic finger wag, to a finger curling inwards, telling you to come closer
@Tricky MCB Gaming why aren't dead Hmm yeah and the death dialogue too that’s just him being chill with you dude got everything he wanted so he’s just rapping lmao
Oh like lord x was the one with no personality. Like vanilla exe had any more then lord x. And even if it didn't they made it worse. Now he's personality is a drooling moron. Isn't that so much better?.
@@Amphian2005 no personality? Lord X is AWARE of your existence, He knows this is a game and the one who controls Bf. The old version was straight, despite PC port being the better version of Sonic.Exe, Lord X here had a normal "Monster Sonic" personality. The New Version fixes that by giving him a "Self Aware" and "Mastermind" personality Just like in PC Port.
I like how everyone says "He looks goofy" without even knowing WHY they made him like that. Just play the PC Port lmao, they made him more in character compared to the old one.
Yeah, FNF fans after playing a mod act like they know everything about the origin. The amount of misinformation in this community is hilarious sometimes.
I'm probably extremely insane, but the thing I loved the most about cycles was the name "cycles" itself because it describes the sonic.exe multiverse so well
Old Lord X: Such A Banger New Lord X: So Expressive NGL, they are both great in song’s, designs, and personality. Although, I’m gonna go with the old one. The song beats hit very hard, and it’s nice to see an old sport once in a while. I also partly like the new one, for the reference of the middle of Execution. Even forevernena pointed out it came from the old version.
Cycles fits well with the mod because it’s scary, but the old one in general is good but not really scary. I prefer cycles the vocals and music is better in my opinion.
I loved execution but I viewed cycles as a evolution from it, I am genuinely saying I think it’s better than execution, they’re both so fun to play but cycles has got to take the cake
the new one is honestly just so much easier on the ears while still being a bangin track! also the slower vibe of it makes the callback to execution so much more amazing
The coolest addition is one of the things he says after you die, it just sounds like random audio, but if you put it in a spectrogram you can see Boyfriend being held by strings with Lord X in the background holding them.
i always thought lord x's overhead hand pose (the left one) looked really cool so i'm happy that they gave it to sonic.exe in the newest update instead of just replacing it completely
I think that was the original point, lord x is partially sonic.exe right? So the maker of the mod was likely throwing ideas at the wall for models, and left lord x with s group of em
@@FatalHog Lord x probably knows alot more then exe I mean he also doesn't take battling BF top seriously I mean those sprites say it all plus his left one shows he knows this ain't real at all.
I like the newer one pretty well, but i do thing that the newer version is lacking few details, Like the "X" Carved into Lord X's chest being a bit more flat compared to the original sprites, and one of Tails "Tails" being eaten by the Palm tree to the right referencing the W.I.P Remastered Sonic PC port fan game. And not to mention that there's no way to play the older song other then to download the 1.0 to 1.5 version's (which is pretty simple enough since the devs left the original downloads separate), or to replace some file's that has the charting for Execution (which is a pain in the rear if you're inexperienced with modifying file's manually).
What you said about hia X carved into his chest makes no sense since lord X body doesnt really have a exact design, the new one seens to be heavily based on the intro design, while the old one seens to be based on the sprites.
honestly lord X and his song went from "ok but not really amazing" to my favourite thing in all the mod, his sprites are so expressive and cycles honestly is a lot better than execution, it wasnt a bad song but it was the worst of the bunch honestly, but now the song is mu favourite song in the whole mod, it sounds so good also I love how lord X went from scary evil guy trying to kill bf to "lmao get a load of this guy" and honestly i believe in goofy lord X supremacy

Imo, both ones are really good. The old one has a better song. Some might agree, most will disagree, but imo its just better. The new one has better sprites in terms of everything except for maybe the icon down at the bottom. Would have been perfect had they kept the song but changed the sprites, and it would have nice if they gave him his own gimmick but oh well. Still love both equally either way, great mod.
Pretty sure they changed the song because while it was very cool it didn't fit lord x true personality at all, in my opinion they should have probably used execution on another exe for the update since it sounded really cool
Someone redpill me on Lord X. Which one is the better interpretation? Personally I like the newer version for the vocals. The voice expresses the notes better while the original was more "noisy". That part at 3:46 just feels more fleshed out in Cycles than in the original and I didn't even notice it before listening to the new version. The beat drops were nice, too. Love it when songs do that in the middle of a good flow.
I think the new sprites are a better interpretation of Lord X’s character not only because they’re drawn by Lord X’s actual creator, but also because they actually have a personality, which is far more accurate to the PC Port.
Dunno why you hate to say that? Your right. The first ones instrumental hit so hard, and the second versions art is so much more expressive, they’re both extremely great to play
I absolutely love how compared to .EXE, Lord X seems much more calm, calculated, and 'in-control', as though he has more of a sane grip on what he's doing. During this entire song it doesn't even feel like he's doing this because he's accepting a challenge from BF, it's more like he's simply indulging BF. It definitely makes him feel more menacing as he doesn't seem like he's doing this to get to BF and kill him, or do whatever, he's merely singing along with BF. But there's always that lingering thought that there's nothing stopping him from merely killing BF, he just chooses not to, but that option is always there.
I'll be genuine for a while About Execution, I didn't like how it had so many references, almost like the musician was lazy, but references bring up familiarity in an average human's mind, it's what I find oddly interesting. Lord X barely had personality in his poses, only just the "OOoOoOo I'm sO ScAryyYYy!1!11" Witch what I saw in the poses, especially the up pose. I don't know why one of the artists took a creepy eye gif and slapped it on a flower. Similar case with one of the trees, or whatever, it was just vibing and I was confused On the bright side, there's Cycles, a whole remake. As they say, it's too good to even exist, but it exists, I just appreciate that song so much! One of the plants had fingers as the "leaves". FINGERS. It's hella unsetteling. Lord X' poses now give so much about him, like he's mocking the player for their courage and stuff, the left pose speaks for itself, because HE KNOWS that they're in a game, and doesn't need to take it seriously for very good reasons. The right one tho, it seems hella goofy and I like it, another addition for little old me liking Lord X. Another funny thing is the sign that says "We're not Knuckles", the devs really do look at the commiunity often, don't they? In conclusion, I prefer Cycles for many reasons. Execution seems kinda off. But I do wish the devs added the song on the freeplay menu, same with old Endless for some people who prefer these version, and I respect that. There's no need to get mad over some guy saying that they prefer this or that As a side note, not related to the two but the songs in general: the songs are bangers in their own unique way :]
Coming back to this, I don't really see anyone talking about the charting. Execution has this drawn out SUPER long slow section that gets so freaking boring. Not only that, the song overall is just so short. Cycles has a good chart, consistent difficulty, even for the slow parts, and actually has some length to it.
i like to imagine that cycles comes first. He taunts at boyfriend and all that blah-blah and then execution is where i imagine he just gets kinda bored since boyfriend is such a small/nonexistent threat to him and sings a more difficult song before finishing him.
Honestly i prefer the new lord x better, the old one is scary for sure but the new one has ALOT more expressions, i already know the new lord x isnt going serious but just playing around bcs he knew he's just on a game.
I love the direction they went with X. They decided to make him less of the average addition and mediocre song type character, and more of a great addition and a totally show stopper. Not to mention he whent from have no personallity to being goofy as all hell. which for some reason just works lmao.
references execution 0:02 flowey laugh 0:09:thorns 0:28:casanova 0:35 cycles reference 1:01:omega flowey theme from undertale cycles 2:03 its own song and execution reference 2:13 thorns like i said in exucution 3:47 exucution reference and thats all of them
Couldn’t this just be a phase for execution? Keep the song, but use it as the second phase for cycles. It makes more sense. For me, execution was harder
And matches with Lord’s personality. Examples ------- Left, he’s sentient. He looks towards the screen mocking both BF and Player. Down, he’s a bit childish and cocky, looks like he’s saying “well, your opinion is good but.. I didn’t ask”
Left pose: get a load of this lil goofball Right pose: a new soul i can finally play with.. forever! Up: his own skeleton (or his arms) coming out of his mouth Down: no can do, kid. (Honestly lord X would probably roast the sadism out of all the sonic’s.. ESPECIALLY sanic and sunky)
If I'm going to be really honest In my honest opinion even though execution did a good job with the song, vocals, the creepiness and the Instrumental cycles did way better and gave Lord X a funny ass looking personality like you CAN'T tell me X is NOT trynna be that one class clown in school
I like how in the old version, people keep mistaking the red hand bush as knuckles. But in the new one it's now holding a sign that says "We're not Knuckles"
did anybody catch new lord x's up animation? it contains lord x looking up , while 2 hands are opening up his mouth. this is a reference to the pc port as well, as when you re-open the game after it crashes, 2 hands are stretching the window (it's not fullscreen) with a fourth wall break included. This is also a show of power, as he's completely destroyed the reality of his universe with his power, so he has access to everything in it and outside of it. Which shows why Lord X can go into the same universe that BF is in (Sonic.exe's universe is DIFFERENT from the sonic pc port)
I prefer Cycles to Execution. Execution was a banger song, don’t get me wrong, I just prefer Cycles. I think Execution relied too much on motifs (although the references were GOLD) Sprite-wise, Lord X has so much more personality in the updated versions (and also sick eyelashes lmao) Compared to the new ones, the Execution sprites look... awkward
i definitely like Cycles more than the other the old version just sounded like your average murderous beast, though the instrumental at around a minute in is pretty cool though Cycles gives a different feeling, rather than seeming like a random person that wants to murder you you can feel the despair the echo thingy effect on Boyfriend's voice just makes em seem so small in an empty place and Lord X just mocks you honestly I feel like a poison effect when he sings would be really fitting cause it just feels like he's in control and that you're just hopeless compared to him
tbh the new ver is better honestly, better songs, sprite, vibe, etc. i love how it seems like Lord X is mocking bf lmfao. (and has more personality than he did in execution)
Cycles goes hard, but execution will remain a classic. Over all, I’d say their equal. Execution is very energetic, while cycles is more intense. Both work for Lord X. Also, during execution, you can somewhat make out lyrics.
What I really like about cycles is the constant feel of emptiness and how it represents how lord x killed everything and now it is just a barren wasteland
To be honest i like the new better as it shows his personality because in the pc port, he plays with his prey and when he gets the chance, he ends them. (Or when he wants to lol)

I think they changed it to supply people with real Lord X vocals, and to get people to saying “hE sOuNDs lIkE tRiCKY bEcaUSE ITs tRickY bUt eDiTeD!!!”
@@ihavetinyweewee oh yeah there's also that
Ngl but the new one sounds like an banger
Someone redpill me on Lord X. Which one is the better interpretation?
Personally I like the newer version for the vocals. The voice expresses the notes better while the original was more "noisy". That part at 3:46 just feels more fleshed out in Cycles than in the original and I didn't even notice it before listening to the new version. The beat drops were nice, too. Love it when songs do that in the middle of a good flow.
I think the new sprites are a better interpretation of Lord X’s character not only because they’re drawn by Lord X’s actual creator, but also because they actually have a personality, which is far more accurate to the PC Port.
Hate to say this
I really loved both versions, idk why but I liked them both
Dunno why you hate to say that? Your right. The first ones instrumental hit so hard, and the second versions art is so much more expressive, they’re both extremely great to play
@@jchicken5305 yes even though you constantly die bc you cant do stairs and jacks notes
Yeah, ones not supposed to be better than the other. Cycles is just another lord x song
True. But I preffer Cycles
Same
I absolutely love how compared to .EXE, Lord X seems much more calm, calculated, and 'in-control', as though he has more of a sane grip on what he's doing. During this entire song it doesn't even feel like he's doing this because he's accepting a challenge from BF, it's more like he's simply indulging BF. It definitely makes him feel more menacing as he doesn't seem like he's doing this to get to BF and kill him, or do whatever, he's merely singing along with BF. But there's always that lingering thought that there's nothing stopping him from merely killing BF, he just chooses not to, but that option is always there.

R.I.P divide, you will be always missed...
Yeah man sad to see such a talented person pass away my prayers go out to his family
sorry but who is divide?
@@maquinaazul3736 one of the main developers of this mod. Very talented person and this mod wouldn’t have exist without them.
I wish the family the best
Rip man it's sad 😔
this is probably one of the best songs in the entire mod (cycles&execution) and the sprites are just... *chefkiss*
The new one is such a huge improvement in every way possible
So true
a lot of people like myself enjoy the old endless music, so in a way i wouldn’t say “every way possible”
@@FlittaLink Well you see, I'm referring to Lord X, Lord x's background, and lord X's song in this scenario.
Execution is better
@@Lside1340 way too repetitive
I'll be genuine for a while
About Execution, I didn't like how it had so many references, almost like the musician was lazy, but references bring up familiarity in an average human's mind, it's what I find oddly interesting. Lord X barely had personality in his poses, only just the "OOoOoOo I'm sO ScAryyYYy!1!11" Witch what I saw in the poses, especially the up pose. I don't know why one of the artists took a creepy eye gif and slapped it on a flower. Similar case with one of the trees, or whatever, it was just vibing and I was confused
On the bright side, there's Cycles, a whole remake. As they say, it's too good to even exist, but it exists, I just appreciate that song so much! One of the plants had fingers as the "leaves". FINGERS. It's hella unsetteling. Lord X' poses now give so much about him, like he's mocking the player for their courage and stuff, the left pose speaks for itself, because HE KNOWS that they're in a game, and doesn't need to take it seriously for very good reasons. The right one tho, it seems hella goofy and I like it, another addition for little old me liking Lord X. Another funny thing is the sign that says "We're not Knuckles", the devs really do look at the commiunity often, don't they?
In conclusion, I prefer Cycles for many reasons. Execution seems kinda off. But I do wish the devs added the song on the freeplay menu, same with old Endless for some people who prefer these version, and I respect that. There's no need to get mad over some guy saying that they prefer this or that
As a side note, not related to the two but the songs in general: the songs are bangers in their own unique way :]
I like both but I prefer cycles however I wish the codes were separate for the new and old songs
Yes the should that’s a really good idea
The source code of this mod is a complete mess, however you can quite easily program execution back in, as it still exists there
The beginning of Execution is really sick with that laugh
they could've keep both old endless and execution in the freeplay menu
edit: whoa that's alot of likes thanks
I think the biggest improvement was his animations. They seem to have this air of playfulness…it gives the character so much life.
bruh execution was my favorite because it was a bop and now it’s gone…unless you can download the old version
wait you’re here too?
if you still have the old version just go into the files of the new version and change the song and chart in the files to the old one
@@diduardnoob8023 HOW
@@silverhanma idk
@@silverhanma sadly I don't know
Cycles really emphasizes Lord X’s personality way way way more than Execution ever did.
Obviously cycles is a huge step up from execution and I love the song but I wish they were able to recreate the old vocals so bad
Yeah. His high pitched hold note in the old one even sounded like one of the old Sonic.Exe screamers
they chose different vocals cuz the old wasn't original, just tricky but changed.
@@BlackTeishin yeah uh… I’m pretty sure the new ones are still tricky
@@auxbutbad nope. they aren't
Coming back to this, I don't really see anyone talking about the charting.
Execution has this drawn out SUPER long slow section that gets so freaking boring. Not only that, the song overall is just so short.
Cycles has a good chart, consistent difficulty, even for the slow parts, and actually has some length to it.
MY POINT RIGHT THERE. imagine working so hard to remake a shitty song just for your fan base to go “old varsion beter
Dude Faker chart feels like the execution slow parts but it’s almost the whole song
I don't see it as boring but I just love how everyone points out stuff like this only when the new version comes out
R.I.P execution song, you will always be missed
It ain’t gone, you can still download the old version
@@gamerpolice8235 we know he's just saying that bc are gonna forget it 😬
@@jasonwright9249 nah we wont
At least it gets referenced in the new one
It was excecuted😔
3:47
If you listen closely,you will hear Execution's instrumental.
0:10 I always think myself, “ Dude this sounds like Thorns” Well I guess that’s why they need to remake it
i like to imagine that cycles comes first. He taunts at boyfriend and all that blah-blah and then execution is where i imagine he just gets kinda bored since boyfriend is such a small/nonexistent threat to him and sings a more difficult song before finishing him.
The new one needs to take more care of his dental hygiene.
The old one need more. His teeth is not only yellow my also in triangles. I don’t know if they are supposed to be that way
@smitekk
I have an picture of what are you talking bout
i still think about how new lord x looks like a villan having fun with the protagonist after a redemption ark xD
I was already creeped out of his original old design. Now he just looks scarier.
Right pose is just saying "Get a load of this guy can't even beat me without beeps and bops." lmao
3:47, this part hits different compared to Execution's version. It feels more like he is [[TROLLING]] again.
Well that’s part of his personality in the Sonic PC Port, he likes to fuck with the game and player
he wants to play with you, forever...
@@QUBIQUBED I know this is n0+ just a game
The most consistent thing in all of the Sonic.EXEs is the nose, that little olive thing has stayed every time
Old: haha I’m totally original murder time! New: *mocks bf in all of his poses except the up one*
I love how in the new version the hands say "WERE NOT KNUCKLES" since some UA-cam's said "are those hands knuckles?"
youtubers*
Honestly i prefer the new lord x better, the old one is scary for sure but the new one has ALOT more expressions, i already know the new lord x isnt going serious but just playing around bcs he knew he's just on a game.
Execution: I've got him! There's no escape!
Cycles: *bruh look at this dood*
I love the direction they went with X. They decided to make him less of the average addition and mediocre song type character, and more of a great addition and a totally show stopper. Not to mention he whent from have no personallity to being goofy as all hell. which for some reason just works lmao.
Hes not goofy just u see the pc port and u know
New one is of course better but the old one had P O G INSTRUMENTALS
agreed
0:36 i think this is my favorite part from both songs, the scratching is really cool
3:48 my part favorite
references execution 0:02 flowey laugh 0:09:thorns 0:28:casanova 0:35 cycles reference 1:01:omega flowey theme from undertale cycles 2:03 its own song and execution reference 2:13 thorns like i said in exucution 3:47 exucution reference and thats all of them
thanks for likeing my comment😍
Couldn’t this just be a phase for execution? Keep the song, but use it as the second phase for cycles. It makes more sense. For me, execution was harder
bruh they are literally the same song, just with different instrumentals, layouts, and voice
@@Chris_8 still should give us to Play original song that's not excuse
@@emersonjr4866 just download the old update then
Did you know lord x is smarter than sonic.exe
@@Chris_8 lol no
I like how in the new one the left animation is just Lord X basically saying “hey look at this idiot”
Lord x's left animation is so smug I honestly love it lmao
i feel like the new lord x design is something you get from your nightmares years ago
honestly, cycles is way more nostalgic than execution for me.
Same the sonic hits harder and its less scary
One thing I love about cycles is that the down pose on X really gives him some personality and it has good instrumental in it
The old one has better music in my opinion
But the new one has a better art style.
Tru dat
And matches with Lord’s personality.
Examples
-------
Left, he’s sentient. He looks towards the screen mocking both BF and Player.
Down, he’s a bit childish and cocky, looks like he’s saying “well, your opinion is good but.. I didn’t ask”
@@hell9914 ty but i I didn’t ask your opinion about my opinion but about ntbr
Idk if im alone on this but the left animation for the new lord x is genuinely unsettling.
3:46 atleast this part is the same...
That's my favorite part because it's a refrence to execution
@@Epicjira same here
Dev: how much bangers do u want it to be?
Me: yes.
I like how the thumbnail the new lord x is doing the "Pfft take a look of this dude" at the old model lol
Left pose: get a load of this lil goofball
Right pose: a new soul i can finally play with.. forever!
Up: his own skeleton (or his arms) coming out of his mouth
Down: no can do, kid.
(Honestly lord X would probably roast the sadism out of all the sonic’s.. ESPECIALLY sanic and sunky)
If I'm going to be really honest In my honest opinion even though execution did a good job with the song, vocals, the creepiness and the Instrumental cycles did way better and gave Lord X a funny ass looking personality like you CAN'T tell me X is NOT trynna be that one class clown in school
??
????
??????
Finally the people who play this mod won’t think the thing in the back is knuckles now
I like how in the old version, people keep mistaking the red hand bush as knuckles. But in the new one it's now holding a sign that says "We're not Knuckles"
Probably a plumber who wants a princess
i love in cycles when lord x suddenly starts singing execution again
1:42 tricky vocal voice
A reminder that Sonic.EXE is modern sonic, and Lord X is Classic Sonic. What a terrifying thought.
tbh, I prefer cycles way more. sure, execution did go REALLY HARD and was still terrifying, but cycles just hits that eerie vibe
did anybody catch new lord x's up animation?
it contains lord x looking up , while 2 hands are opening up his mouth.
this is a reference to the pc port as well, as when you re-open the game after it crashes, 2 hands are stretching the window (it's not fullscreen) with a fourth wall break included.
This is also a show of power, as he's completely destroyed the reality of his universe with his power, so he has access to everything in it and outside of it. Which shows why Lord X can go into the same universe that BF is in (Sonic.exe's universe is DIFFERENT from the sonic pc port)
I prefer Cycles to Execution. Execution was a banger song, don’t get me wrong, I just prefer Cycles. I think Execution relied too much on motifs (although the references were GOLD)
Sprite-wise, Lord X has so much more personality in the updated versions (and also sick eyelashes lmao)
Compared to the new ones, the Execution sprites look... awkward
love how the new sprites of Lord X just show him goofing around and enjoying the moment, instead of trying to be another big scary hedgehog
i definitely like Cycles more than the other
the old version just sounded like your average murderous beast, though the instrumental at around a minute in is pretty cool
though Cycles gives a different feeling, rather than seeming like a random person that wants to murder you
you can feel the despair
the echo thingy effect on Boyfriend's voice just makes em seem so small in an empty place
and Lord X just mocks you
honestly I feel like a poison effect when he sings would be really fitting cause it just feels like he's in control and that you're just hopeless compared to him
tbh the new ver is better honestly, better songs, sprite, vibe, etc.
i love how it seems like Lord X is mocking bf lmfao. (and has more personality than he did in execution)
Lord X IS mocking both bf and the player also he's self aware.
@@TovaMaster I see, interesting
@@Arsarossa Calm down it's N0+ just a game!
Cycles goes hard, but execution will remain a classic. Over all, I’d say their equal. Execution is very energetic, while cycles is more intense. Both work for Lord X. Also, during execution, you can somewhat make out lyrics.
Don't forget the part when Lord X start *beatboxing* in Execution
It's so fckn lit!!
@@ZaFah695 when does that happen??
@@jaleawilliams792 it's at 0:35
*it's sounds like he's beatboxing lmao*
0:35 Reference :D
3:47
The pure smug coming from the newer sprite is amazing
He looks much more menacing in Cycles
What I really like about cycles is the constant feel of emptiness and how it represents how lord x killed everything and now it is just a barren wasteland
3:47 I love how in this part it seems that he is suffering
Average Endless fanboy
VS
Average Execution/Cycles true enjoyer
Watched Cycles an ungodly amount of times before I realized the pose in which Lord is pointing at bf he's also looking straight at you 😸☠️
I'm gonna keep this short. I prefer Execution over Cycles. I prefer Lord X's new design over his old one. That's all.
Idk about anyone else, but cycles almost sounds like Execution but in reverse.
Lord X's current vocals sound more demonic than his previous one.
I like the left pose it’s funny also good job!
The new one is just... depression
That’s honestly what the point sonic exe is.
@@JugularJohn yea
OLD VER AND NEW VER HAVE SAME LAUGH THEME 0:02 2:04
0:06 2:08
To be honest i like the new better as it shows his personality because in the pc port, he plays with his prey and when he gets the chance, he ends them. (Or when he wants to lol)
I love when Lord X does his right/back animation, it’s because he is saying like “guys look at this dumba**”
Friendship ended with Execution, Cycles is my new friend.
Oh no
I feel like lord x is one of those self aware characters who would look at the screen and say “so how’s your day goin?”
