Sonic has _a bunch_ of good lines and moments in this game. Such as... Before pulling Caliburn out of the pedestal, Merlina asks Sonic if he's ready to be the "worst of all knights, slayer of kings," in which Sonic responds with, "Guess I can't be the hero every time!" and pulls the sword out. This actually comes back in the endgame later, too, which I'll also mention. When Sonic is first challenged by Sir Lancelot, Lancelot asks if Sonic will drop his weapon and flee, which Sonic responds with "Sounds good to me!" But by the time he's challenged by Sir Percival, Sonic refuses to flee. When Sonic is challenged by Sir Gwain and defeats him, Sonic stops Gwain from committing...well, an honorable death on himself, and tells him that there's more to being a knight than serving a king, which rings true. Sonic goes even further by saying that he has "People to save, y'know?" and Sir Gwain stares at him. When Sonic comes across the crying child (which we learn was actually The Lady Of The Lake in disguise), he chooses to go and slay the Dragon despite the Lady Of The Lake's tasks not being completed and Caliburn warning Sonic that he'll never make it in time. Yes, choosing to go slay the Dragon was a form of compassion, but still. Sonic responds to this with "Maybe, but I go my own way!" In the confrontation with the Dark Queen, Sonic wants to learn why she betrayed him and why she wants to make an eternal world. Sonic outright asks "Why?" In the same scene, Sonic has some really good lines. When Sir Percival says that he's done enough after Caliburn breaks, Sonic says "A knight never flees his foe, right?" And when Sir Gwain says that this isn't about chivalry anymore, Sonic says "It was never about chivalry for me. I just gotta do what I gotta do, that's all." During the final battle, Dark Queen says to Sonic and asks him, *"Your selfishness is going to be the end of it all. Do you not understand?"* to which Sonic responds with what may be the best line ever from him and the most surprising one to me, looking back at this game, and says, *"I already told you! I don't mind playing the bad guy every once in a while!"* A nice callback to the beginning of the game, and foreshadowing, too. The two scenes compliment each other. This game is so underrated, story wise and character wise with Sonic. Sonic's character peaked in this game.
Here's some more food for thought for you. There's two versions of "With Me" this one and the Crush 40 one. You can interpret this version as Merlina singing this song to Sonic while the Crush 40 version is Sonic singing it to Merlina.
For real and I think Jason Griffin best voice acting for Sonic was this game made me want to see more his voice acting as Sonic. I still prefer the adventure era voice actors and actresses I love Ryan Drummond portrayal as Sonic. But Jason Griffin was pretty damn good in this game and the music gets me hyped everytime.
I don't care what anyone says: The entire game was worth it JUST to see Sonic turn into Excalibur Sonic, with it not just being a title as he is *actually wielding the legendary sword itself.* "There's NOTHING Excalibur can't cut through!"
Dark Spine Sonic is just as good as Excalibur Sonic, and the phrase Caliburn said made me wonder... if that was indeed true... could it literally cut through time itself?
Every world has its end. I know that's kinda sad but. That's why we gotta live life to the fullest in the time we have... at least that's what I figure.
I mean, theoretically, depending on the circumstances, the world might be able to support life forever, by virtue of going on forever. So Sonic's statement there wasn't entirely valid.
I think he means we're not getting anything new by staying in one era. Without the development we had, we would not be stuck without A/C and stuff like that. I hope that makes sense
If I could have one thing back from my childhood. My Wii, and this game. I replayed the dark queen boss over and over and over. The fight was so epic and glorious. Granted super forms were a standard by then, but just seeing sonic donne that golden knight armor, Calibur becoming Excalibur. Everything was so epic. Down to the core.
What happened to your Wii? I still have my Wii from my childhood, I would never get rid of it and still get to play everything I would play as a kid to this day, as well as new Wii games I missed out on.

Silver just wants to live in a future that isn't fucked beyond repair, which would allow him to enjoy his life while he still has one. After all, who would want a shitty death? And if you want a shitty death, then you need to reevaluate your death choices.
the storybook games MADE ME WHO I AM AND THE SONIC FAN I AM TODAY THIS SONG WAS THE BRAKE OF IT. when i got to the boss fight and this song came up it made me feel like i could do anything(as a 7yr old kid) and now im 16 and NOTHING CHANGED I STILL FEEL THE SAME WAY❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
I was singing this in the shower, when I got I continued to sing it, put my headphones, and sang for the rest of the video, and now I'm wondering what the fuck drugs my parents think I'm on because I'm a terrible a singer and they probably only heard like five seconds of the song if any of it at all.
Caleb Vega King Arthur seems to be more of a title for the wielder of Excalibur than one specific person. Sonic is the True King Arthur, but not the only King Arthur. ...Am I making sense here?
I would've thought King Arthur is treated more as a title than an actual person in Sonic's world They surely couldnt have overlooked that detail of Merlina's father being Arthur himself
i don't hate crush 40's version, but i don't think they improved it. they didn't make it worse, but they didn't make it better, either. if you have your own opinion, great. but this is just my opinion
Sonics sort of the villain here isn’t he? I mean he’s basically condemning the world to it’s eventual end, but that doesn’t really make him the villain.

I just finally got the game months ago I'm almost done wit It but I'm loving this game so far its so much fun fr bruh.
I randomly remembered this song last night working on homework. The raw emotion she pours into this song made write a 4,300 word essay. Bro.
Impressive
Honestly that's word for word what i'm doing right now
Gotta have a reason to live and move on right?

With Me by All Ends (Dark Queen - Final Boss Theme from Sonic and the Black Knight)
Lyrics
You know every world will have its end
And I'm here to prove it all to you
I am who you don't think I am
All wrapped up in my evil plan
I can taste the day
Savor night
Spells beyond you as I watch you crawl
Do you dare to fight evil's might?
I'll be the last one standing in a flash of light
My eyes (my eyes) are filled with curiosity
You think (you think) that you have power over me
In this life (this life) there's no room for you and me
So turn away or face this day with me
(Face the day with me)
With me
(Face the day with me)
You know
Every world will have it's test
Don't blame for what I have become
You know every world will come to end (come to end)
And I'll create your final rest
I can taste the day
Savor night
Scream your dreams as you dare to fight
Dare to fight
My eyes (my eyes) are filled with curiosity
You think (you think) that you have power over me
In this life (this life) there's no room for you and me
So turn away or face this day with me
(Face the day with me)
With me
(Face the day with me)
With me
(Face the day with me)
With me
I can taste the day
Savor night
Scream your dreams as you dare to fight
Dare to fight
My eyes (my eyes) are filled with curiosity
You think (you think) that you have power over me
In this life (this life) there's no room for you and me
So turn away or face this day with me
(Face the day with me)

And I thought I was the only one who was going to listen to it this year. But I'm really glad I was wrong.
why do all these final boss themes have the word 'Curiosity' in it? It doesn't fit, but doesn't drag to song down at all.

"What good is a world that goes on forever? That sounds pretty lame." - Sonic
This is a very epic song and has some hardcore lyrics tbh
"Your blade cannot touch me."
The dislikes are the people who wanted the world to go on forever
“What good is a world that goes on forever?”
That sounds pretty lame!
Underrated final boss theme. Great final battle, possibly the best in the series.
Sonic 06 Solaris Phase 2 says "Hi"
THis is no doubt about it. This is the ( one of ) BEST SONG in the whole franchise! Perfect example for final bosses, and just game music.
2007 we get secret rings
2008 then unleashed
2009 here comes black night
2010 oh hey colors
2011 hello generations
these games form their own series
Yeah, now we get a new game every 4 years
XD true

I could listen to this for 10 hours

Best final boss sonic theme and I loved how it was based on Merlin’s and sonic
I was about to get third in a game, then this came on and activated my brain. Bless the algorithm
Oh yeah sonic is king arther in this game
0:33-0:57
My favorite part
Such a badass song 🗡️
This final boss pulled a Moebius and wanted the world to last forever

I just realized something if sonic is king Arthur then that means Merlinas father is sonic
Does she say Arthur was her father? I'm confuzzeled
Yes

Spoken like a certified fan. Everyone has their preference.
Couldn't say it any better
11 years and yet this theme... so bad@$$ still!
Sonics sort of the villain here isn’t he? I mean he’s basically condemning the world to it’s eventual end, but that doesn’t really make him the villain.
In a way yeah
Well he's right, no world should have to go on forever. Camelot needed someone like him to bring true order to the kingdom at that point in time.
"I already told you; I don't mind playing the bad guy once in a while!"
Someone mix this with the Solaris phase 2 theme from 06’ and make it 30 minutes long please!
Ariana Greenblatt: My Story's Only Finished When I Be Adopted And A Student Of Barbara Palvin!
Hot take, but I really don’t like the crush 40 versions for black knight and secret rings songs
I'm not overly fond of their version of His World either. They just sound old in that one.
Bro same.
One of my favorite tracks from sonic games shame i really don't care for the game itself

This is my battle cry for revenge!

Why the lack of comments?
Likely the lack of views.
They turned away.
Not the main with me on youtube
this is litterly the only reason this game is good, its the music
sonic character's peaked in this game
I dunno, Black Knight is pretty good. You can get a lot of fun out of it, which is what should make a video game good.
Not sure why, but this has a sort of "Persona 4 or 5 final act boss fight" feel to it.
I can hear it too! The music from Persona and Sonic are somehow compatible at times and I love it!
