This is still impressive you know all the badnick names, but playing this way you really get to know them. I would think Dylan is the badnick kind of guy with one of his favs being motobug but you ture badnick appreciation, rock on Frank.
I never found an update on this, so Imma just ask it here: how come you changed your name from Knuckles Channel 3 and Knuckles? Was it copyright or personal preference? I'm not mad about it, but simply curious since I watched the channel a while back, and when I came back, the name changed. EDIT: I love how you went through the effort of finding an obscure clip from TNA for a 5 second joke that only nerds like me will get. Love your dedication, man.
Heads up. This might be a bit of a long read. The new name came from not wanting to be attached to a character anymore and wanting a brand name I can call my own. Long story short, I wanted to branch out of just making Sonic content, due to severe burn out. There were times where it forced me to make videos I didn't want to make. It's pretty easy to tell which ones were made where I was just phoning it in. So I quickly rebranded the channel in January, but did such a poor job of explaining it, it started to hurt the channel. Many took the message the wrong way and assumed I hated the series now, when I only needed a break. This is, currently, my only source of income, so it wasn't good to have that resentment from my viewers. With the hype of the Sonic 2 movie and the fact that something needed to be done right now, I did a bit of damage control. Basically, made Sonic content for 2 months. Now, I'm ready to get back to what I planned in the rebrand video, which is now unlisted. Sonic content will still be around, but I also want to be happy as a content creator. If there's anymore questions, feel free to ask.

Sonic Without Defeating A Badnik Origins Sonic 1 without defeating a badnik Sonic 2 without defeating a badnik Sonic CD without defeating a badnik Sonic 3 & Knuckles without defeating a badnik
@@GottaBeFrank except the seals and birds, but I mean in actual good Eggman continuity. Also I feel like even though CD was a bust, it doesn't matter as much because they were seeds.
Hello there my good sir, i absolutely love your content. I will say this, i was quite surprised that you didn’t do any of the well known level wraps for these games to go along with your pacifist run. I’m always excited for more content from you.
Something I noticed watching a before you buy video. There is an actual Pacifist challenge, It might be cool if (with Origins coming out) seeing where these challenges are and possibly doing a "Offical" version keeping these versions as the rule set is honestly awesome but would be interesting to see if this challenge is in CD as that is the only one of the origins that is impossible. Still awesome to watch
One thing i'm curious about is would it be possible to beat a characters story in SA1 without destroying a badnik in the action stages? a challenge like that in SA1 would require the rules to not be in effect in the adventure fields and in regards to Gamma ignored for his bosses because of reasons
The best part about Sonic Origins is that you'll be able to play Sonic CD as Knuckles officially for the first time, meaning an easier way to not defeat Badniks.
@@GottaBeFrank honestly, it kind of makes sense that he isnt in it, since he would break the verticality of the levels and make them even easier than tails did in the mobile remaster. However i have no doubt that people will mod him in day one
The batniks in the final boss is not batniks when theres a batnik in a boss stage its just a part of the boss So can you beat Sonic CD with out defeating a batnik yes/no (yes and no)
They might like their robot shells, they might not. If they don't, then they are free! if they do, then they can always go crawling back to Robotnik. Yet, nobodies asking them either way, everyone is making decisions for them.....
10:24 "Sonic demands a do-over." ------- 23:42 Metallic Madness Zone in a nutshell. ------- 25:24 Sonic CD also reminded us of how bad Wacky Workbench Zone is.
There was a glitch that happened to me in the Bossfight of sonic CD where I did the super peel out and the spikes went off screen so I didn’t have to worry about losing my rings except for the bomb but I had a super ability for a while and I was able to beat the boss
Origins? Yes. Despite my issues with it, I think it'll be a solid release. Frontiers? Not so much. I want to see more of the game and I hope it changes my mind.
Im guessing "origins" is in airquotes because it---wait wait no i see i paid attention to the intro so I can edit this comment right Also I never thought you would be a vtuber on twitch, nothing wrong with that though
Yes. Sonic CD released on PC 3 years after the Sonic CD release. It's also the same version used in the Sonic Gems Collection. It has less slowdown than the original and has better looking cutscenes, but is still the exact same game.
with the rule of "if the music changes, its a fair game" these challenges should not be that hard. just take a invisibility shield or turn into Super Sonic and take down every Badnick there is.
I do think you should've done sonic 3 with sonic + tails. I did and is actually not too bad. The sonic 3 levels are rough, with 4 of them being on par with metropolis zone, but after that it's pretty normal.
@@GottaBeFrank actually it's one of the easier zones. Act 1 took like 5 minutes, and act 2 was a bit harder, but as long as you don't go near many bats and use super sonic to skip a portion it's not that bad. Marble garden, launch base, and hydrocity are much harder.
@@GottaBeFrank fair enough. I learned you can spindash under them when they aren't blowing and tails would follow you thank goodness. Once you're past them their wind won't get you.
Even though this game hasn't came out yet I love how you made a video on it regardless I love it Keep up the fantastic work making awesome sonic content like this it's worth watching and enjoying
OMG if your still making sonic video’s than WHY DID YOU CHANGE THE NAME OF YOUR CHANNEL AND if your still making sonic video’s than there wasn’t even any point where you had to change the name of your channel *sigh* I’m sorry but someone just had to say it eventually
I never said I was done with Sonic, I just wanted to branch out. Rebranding has made making videos far more enjoyable because I wasn't locked into one series, which led to the massive burnout I was feeling at the end of last year. This year, I've made Sonic videos, but I've also made videos on Mega Man, Mario, and even Pokémon. The reception and viewership vary with those videos, but I can honestly say that the rebrand was worth it and I've started to really enjoy content creation again.

Knuckles is not playable in Sonic CD. Famitsu posted an interview a few weeks back, confirming it.

Things have changed, since then. I stopped streaming on Twitch and have not figured what I'll be doing going forward.
If its impossible to beat sonic CD Smith out defeating a batnick that means u can't be Sonics origin correct?
Pretty much, but the journey is an interesting one.
If only Sonic 1 zones had 2 acts and there more zones in general.
WHY NO SONIC CDDDDD
Yeah but the generator is not a badnik so by technicality your not defeat ping any badniks
The generator destroys all of the badniks in the past, present, and future of that act.
YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
I feel like there have been points where Sonic murdered an animal stuck inside a badnik while speeding.
I hate labrth Zone to
What About Mania Without Defeating A Badnik?

spikes on v1 of sonic the hedgehog are op

Something that the"No badnicks" videos made me realize how O actually didn't know the name of any badnick
We don't see many of them in side games, so some of the names aren't as known.
But... Weren't Metal, Mecha and Mecha Mk2 Badniks?
Not exactly. They are usually the weakest enemies, made by Dr. Eggman.
No
Maybe when Origins comes out you could hack that to not hurt badniks? Fingers crossed!
I'm not a hacker or modder. lol
No
