when i was fighting mephiles i was expecting his old voice actor not the new one (which oddly fits infinite more than mephiles. But the voice actor still did great job as it sound like mephiles was desperate to get back to life)
Robbie Daymond, Mephiles' VA in Shadow Generations. It may not be like Dan Green's, but Robbie did a well job portraying Mephiles. Maybe one day, Takashi Iizuka can find a way to bring back Mephiles as the fans were happy to see him back as a boss
Mephiles was absurdly well written in this. He was so good. This game in general is just very good. Started a series myself and im enjoying every moment
I actually like it a bit better than the actual Metal Overlord head, since I felt the whole design kind of loses the Sonic part of Metal Sonic and the mod head brings just enough of it back. Truthfully, if I wasn't aware of the fact that Metal Overlord was a form of Metal Sonic beforehand, I probably would not have even recognized it as a Sonic character. He genuinely feels more like a Yu-Gi-Oh monster than anything else.
@sonicovertime It also definely should have Mighty as a rival fight, they are practically made to be rivals. The main bosses could include the heavies from mania and studiopolis zone.
its such a contrast with the two language casts, there has been like three big main changes for the english cast meanwhile its been mostly the same Japanese cast since sa1, even Black Doom and Mephiles Japanese actors are the same from shadow 05 and 06.
Red Metal Overlord with Kai's head works shockingly well. Pretty much the only complaint I have is the audio balancing clipping too much. The visual elements to Mephiles were done excellently, but that voice mod uniquely took Dan Green's killer performance and made it sound worse through AI generated dialogue and patchwork sentence splicing.
Awesome mods! The only downside to the Mephiles voice mod is that it uses an AI voice whenever there's no matching 06 voice clip. For a non-AI Mephiles redub, check out SteamboatNighty's mod, voiced by BoyleVoices.
Figured as much. Though am I allowed to say it's...not, bad? I mean AI Bad, obviously. But it's clear it works better when it's got something with inflection to work with rather than just text. Is the Metal Overlord voice also AI or is that just a really good redub?
I'm glad someone uploaded a video in 2k quality with BOTH mods, i only had the original mephiles voice mod and the lighting mod for mephiles in my playlist yet you combined both, good job The only thing thats missing is the Jason Griffith voice mod for Shadow, if you could upload that video against Mephiles without the metal overlord boss, I think that'd be amazing!
My personal problem with using Dan Green’s Mephiles is that the voice lines sounds more menacing and in control. And what I liked about him in this boss was that he sounded not in control, he also just desperate to get back home.
Actually, the first shadow gens mod i saw was the super shadow skin, but it just replaced the black color for golden(including shadow's nose). The rest was just the same as regular shadow lol
I think it can affect him but only for a few minute at max, remember Shadow keep Mephiles in place using Chaos control before sealing him in Aquatic Base cutscene
2:28 "Time for the final curtain call on this...ETERNAL STAGE?" The line is MACABRE PLAY... Close enough, I guess, AI Dan Green. Metal Overlord's voice is immaculate though. Perfect. No notes. I think Ryan Drummond would be proud.
Leave it to Sonic fans to disrespect VAs and artists enough to stoop as low as using and encouraging the use of AI to steal someone's voice without their consent and use it to replace someone else's voice, who did a good job anyway to boot.
If Sonic Team won't do it.... the Sonic _FANS_ will. _Deal with it._ Dan Green will *_NEVER_* be coming back... So the least we can do to honor his legacy... is to put _his_ voice, to GOOD use ourselves. 😎 👍
@StarlitJasmine I *doubt* it. They'd _want_ their voice to be remembered: _Above all_ else. If they NEVER get the chance to use their voices, for productions like this: Ever again. _If_ fans want to honor, and give the actors more credit... they **could** pay the going rates of royalties for the amount of lines. _But_ I doubt the AVERAGE fan would be bothered nor have the *_budget_* _For_ that.
why do you all hate AI, it helps so much to do cool stuff which people cant. How do you want random fans modders to get official VAs to voice all lines for their mod?
@@LeoDetectiveyou're supporting stealing people's voice work without their consent to replace someone else's perfectly good job. blatant disrespect to both voice actors✌🏼
@@theenettt Who th random fans are supposted to get previous Mephiles VA to make this mod for them? And I dont really think VA himself cares about fans just having fun with modding the game.
AI really saved Mephiles' voice. Hopefully we can have AI Jason Griffith or AI Ryan to cover Metal Sonic and Shadow too. Can't stand the new voice actors, ugh!
I’m sorry I do not care how you feel about the voice actors wanting to replace them with AI is disrespectful as fuck to the current and previous voice actors
when i was fighting mephiles i was expecting his old voice actor not the new one (which oddly fits infinite more than mephiles. But the voice actor still did great job as it sound like mephiles was desperate to get back to life)
Yeah he definitely wasn't bad at all
I think he did a pretty good job overall, his voice could have been abit lower (maybe even use a toner for that) but besides that did well.
@@sonicovertime ps intresting fact i heard the voice actor also did the voice of akechi for persona 5

That voiced mephiles did his best
Mephiles was absurdly well written in this. He was so good. This game in general is just very good. Started a series myself and im enjoying every moment
To his credit, Dan Green made Mephiles as creepy as he was in 06, however Robbie Daymond did pretty good in capturing some of that dark magic
you're telling me Mephiles is Akechi? Huh.
Facts
5:11 The red recolor and the look of the head is great but man It's goofy looking to have Metal Sonic Kai's head on Metal Overlords body.
I actually like it a bit better than the actual Metal Overlord head, since I felt the whole design kind of loses the Sonic part of Metal Sonic and the mod head brings just enough of it back.

Just call him “Metal Overlord Kai”
I agree with the ratio lol 😂
The slack open jaw looks so dumb
Modern Knuckles could lokey probably one shot metal sonic kai now
If there was a Knuckles Generations, Metal Sonic Kai would definely have to be included.
Angel Island, Metal Sonic Kai, Lost World (Sonic Adventure), Rouge Rival Fight, Launch Base Zone, Aquatic Base would make for a sick game or mod pack.
@sonicovertime
It also definely should have Mighty as a rival fight, they are practically made to be rivals. The main bosses could include the heavies from mania and studiopolis zone.
@@sonicovertimeChaos Angel too!
Super Mecha Sonic along with it
Forgetting Pumpkin Hill and Mirage Saloon now eh?

If no one has done it we need a super shadow mod

@@ImageniusGenio-r4q Does it replace shadow with the doom wing or shadow with his chaos control ready
@@burp3267 nope. Just The caracter itself
06 mephilis voice is so distinct
honestly you just need to lower the pitch of Robbie Daymond's voice by 10% and it's already sounded just like Dan Green voice
Knuckles chaotix deserves more love
3:55 Honestly, I woulda thought Chaos Control wouldn't work on Mephiles because he has the power to control time.
THATS WHAT IM SAYING
@jboyathegamer For real?🤨
@@xavierkittreles1998 yeah

9:10, Was that a RIDER KICK?!
It was!
@@michaelrhett4958 GNARLY!!
9:07 fun fact the quick time events are pointless because I’ve experimented on them where I didn’t push the button and nothing happens
I just realized: Metal Sonic Kai is a Kai OS (operational system) or CHAOS
Surprised that there are now mods for Sonic X Shadow Generations, hope to see more.
5:04 Bro nearly got cut from his nose.
I’ll called it Neo Overlord Kai.
Bruuuh i thought metal Kai was real and the bosses got recolors for hard mode.
This just made me think how much we need a modern metal sonic kai fight
At least someone one go the right idea to use Dan green’s voice
holy chum chum sauce they remembered about Kaizo Metal

@@Need_RnRyou don’t honour someone’s legacy as a VA by stealing their voice, in fact that’s probably the last thing a VA would ever wish for

This is just sad, you don’t realise how harmful ai is to actors
I really enjoyed both bosses. Keep up the good work. Have a wonderful day Sonic Overtime.
Now we need Silver's story
It's only been a few days and people are already modding!?
Awesome and mind blowing video! 👍🤩
Metal Sonic Kai is a long old boss
Welcome back
I wonder why they gave metal overlord the biolizard scream.
Copied the power of Chaos
*Epic!*
thank you mod maker for removing the harsh fresnel
I would of much prefer that they got an actual actor to do the Mephiles lines rather than use AI
Epico 😎 metal Sonic kai ❤
Also i believe japanese mephiles still have his sub voice
You are correct he did come back so did the Black Doom VA!
@willisrose9756 at least those that play Japanese version can hear their sub voice
someone should make the a Squidward mod for the Metal Overlord. (the Metal Squidlord)
Metal Sonic Kai from Knuckles Chaotic 1995
Mega Metal Overlord.
Don't mess with imposters.
WAIT METAL SONIC KAI!?
Also why is Mephiles shadow without a mouth?
damn, could've been a nice mod if not for ai
why do you all hate AI, it helps so much to do cool stuff which people cant.
How do you want random fans modders to get official VAs to voice all lines for their mod?
Why does metal have the biohazard scream?
Kai Cenat?
This is disrespectful to Dan Green, just pitch down Robbie’s lines if you want him to sound more like Dan.
Mephiles:I want to existe
Everyone:This is the place where you belong Mephiles,the trashcan
Regardless of how you feel about the new VA, making a mod to replace them with an old one feels... odd.
Not really. Many including myself wanted Dan Green back, and even with that aside the new voice actor isn't very imod for Mephiles
Nah its much better to hear old va
"Restore my timeliness back" is worse dialogue
People need to stop hating AI
BREADWINNERS HATERS DO NOT INTERACT😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
AI sucks doo-doo, don't support that slop. No respect for Dan Green at all.
Why?
Idc what you think about AI if it helps people to make such cool mods for games then I will fully support it

Why not actually get real voice actors for the thing as opposed to using AI there are plenty of fan vas who are more than happy to do it
@@LuckoDaStarstrue.
Unfortunately the US voice acting industry does not care for its actors unless they voice in Dragon Ball.
I’m sorry I do not care how you feel about the voice actors wanting to replace them with AI is disrespectful as fuck to the current and previous voice actors
I think there was barely any AI for Mephiles involved. Sounded like the original 06 lines. Mostly.
