Anyone else don´t have the feeling that Mephiles is some sort of "Uninvited Visitor" in all this? Like, every single boss are just mindless copies from their original timelines, they are just fighting Shadow like if it were some sort of Instint that they follow without been aware of what is going on, but Mephiles is fully aware that he is trapped in a Time Void.
Well Devil Doom obviously seems more aware since this whole thing was his plan. And biolizard seems more a victim wrought back to lash out at shadow once again. So it seems the only one with a veil over their heads her is metal overlord
I think that's the implication since he takes 4 keys to open his gate and said gate almost feels like it's hidden on purpose. The other two are out in the open and his is in the basement so to speak.
I mean, Metal Overlord seems sentient enough, even if he's just retreading the events of Heroes. He definitely seems more sentient than his counterpart in the original Generations, who seems more like he was just tasked with guarding the emerald. Maybe that's just me though
@@digi-stranger0234 I think the setup here alone kinda allows Mephiles to ever return if they want him to. He's still a thing that "exists" relative to reality as a whole, just isn't allowed to participate in it and desperately seeks to crawl back.
Biolizard, Metal Overlord, Mephiles, and Black Doom. It makes sense that all of these four will be boss battles for Shadow since they're all the main antagonists on games that label Shadow the protagonist.
@@wongnexus7716 Sonic, I understand why, since Sonic and Shadow's story are happening at the same time. They'll cross paths, and Sonic has to fight Shadow to get the Chaos Emerald. After that, Silver. And Infinite, the game hasn't reached that point in time, so honestly, I was never expecting him. But seeing that they did added Force and Frontier stage did took me by surprise.
Not only that, these four share a unique relationship with Shadow, each one trying to emulate him or his position as the Ultimate Lifeform. The Biolizard, being the Prototype of the Ultimate Lifeform, serving as Shadow's predecessor for that title. Metal Overlord, having copied Shadow's Ultimate Lifeform Bio Data, and even claiming himself as the "True" Ultimate Lifeform. Mephiles transforming into a corrupted version of Shadow himself. Finally Black Doom, being the DNA donor of Shadow himself, trying to take over Shadow's body and be reborn as one entity.
Man you make Hard Mode look easy somehow! I love how every boss fight in this game shows off how much stronger Shadow is than in the past. He solo's Metal Overlord when that took all of the cast in Heroes to do. He beat Mephiles without taking off his inhibitor rings this time. He takes out Biolizard when it is clearly powered up and far more mobile and destructive than before. He takes on Devil Doom who has gorwn stronger in equal measure to Shaodw, without even going Super Shadow! Storytelling through gameplay.
Not gonna lie. If you check the ground during Mephiles' and the Devil Moon's boss fights, You can see there's the same liquid -ish substance Mephiles used in his boss fight. Which means Mephiles either wasn't trapped in the scepter and is trying to help Shadow defeat Black Doom to get a place back in the timeline. (Honestly plausible in my head considering how desperate he seems.) Or Black Doom is capable of recreating that same substance. (Take nothing of what I said seriously as these are only two headcanons I have.)
The fact shadow beat all of these a holes without taking off his inhibitor rings is absolutely wild. Dude was basically styling on them while not needing full power to rekt them
The final phase of Mephiles can be made much easier by always using chaos control when the giant emerges. You can also optimize the ramming by not pressing dash again until you’ve connected *and* reoriented forward.
Metal Overlord With A Fast S-Rank And High Ring Count Feels Impossible. The Lasers Need To Be Jumped Over At The PERFECT Time. Phase 2 Needs To Be Done Perfectly To End With The Chaos Control Cinematic (Which Applys To Phase 1 Too). You Need To Be So Good You Know The Layout For The Fight, And Get The Controls Down Perfectly Alongside ALL That.
@vexversaa239 sunset heights is quite literally a level in the game though??? death egg robots and all??? i don't see how generations taking place before forces would stop infinite from appearing if sunset heights (AND chaos island, which is from frontiers) appears in the game
This is my opinion but I think they should make another Shadow game and bring back Mephiles, maybe make him the main villain maybe if Ian Flynn has a good story and maybe a new form
I love all the hard mode bosses but metal overlord made me upsetti spaghetti the most. The physics of the surfing trying to jump m back and forth with momentum in the 2D section. Try to make sure you get enough hits in and get the ramp attacks so you can skip the tail swing segment and doing all of that in one run took me awhile 😅
Anyone else annoyed that you can die and still get a s rank in both Biolizard and Mephiles fights but for Metal Overlord and Devil Doom fights, you miss one chance to attack and it’s kiss s rank goodbye? It’s very inconsistent and annoying because there isn’t much way to speed up Overlord or Dooms Fights as they are on rail most of the time and features the two very slippery Doom abilities.
For whatever reason in my game when I held down the button to hit doom it would NEVER do the combo!! As a result my boss fight was insanely slow and annoying. Glad to see something was definitely wrong lol
Yeah, as a Heroes Kid, it sounded like Bowser to me, or someone trying to sound tough (which i guess sorta works for Metal, considering the whole 'identity crisis' thing)
@@nealenthenerd399 HE WASNT EVEN USING THE CHAOS EMERALDS AND WE TALKING GENERATIONS THESE MEPHILES ARE FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT ONE IS DESPERATE AND ONE IS SCHEMING
As to me, my version in Mastered Ultra Instinct against Bill from Gravity Falls before beat and Vanish him, and after beat two villains from Amphibia and Owl House (The Core Moon Monster form and Belos) to save Infin‐Multiverse: I'm a Martial Arts Warrior Felix Chuah. Child of real world, adopted child of Smurf Village of Enchanted Forest, Student of Saiyan named, Son Goku. Fighter and Protector as The Ultimate Legendary Warrior. And now to you, Bill. REAL VANISH FOREVER!!!
Poor mephilles i feel bad for the guy he wanted to be back in the sonic headline but he didn’t get to also I think it’s not fair that sonic o6 is a bad game it’s not!!!! It’s especially since princess else is sonic true love she had real feelings for him and sonic actually spoke feelings about him in the end but they didn’t get together I hope in the future there will be another sonic game where they bring back princess else’s whereat first she doesn’t remember him just like when she blew out the flames of disaster but in the end she will remember him and sonic will remember her and they will be together again forever❤❤❤️❤️

It's a shame the original Mephiles voice actor didn't reprise his role, but seeing the character back is awesome
Robbie Daymond sure did a great job in place of Dan Green
@@patrickdornoff2735 Absolutely - it's different, but not in a bad way, please don't misunderstand me.
@@patrickdornoff2735it was so unique, I didn’t play or hear 06 but I love his voice and sad he won’t be a character that returns
@@patrickdornoff2735Did you say pancakes?
@@digi-stranger0234 I think the setup here alone kinda allows Mephiles to ever return if they want him to. He's still a thing that "exists" relative to reality as a whole, just isn't allowed to participate in it and desperately seeks to crawl back.
The idea that Mephiles still somehow seeks to crawl back despite being erased from history is a terrifying thought.
I guess that's the reason why Shadow doesn't remember Mephiles, but a rematch against Mephiles in this new game, it's a dream come true.
On the plus side now we know hes still kicking out there in some capacity.
Biolizard, Metal Overlord, Mephiles, and Black Doom. It makes sense that all of these four will be boss battles for Shadow since they're all the main antagonists on games that label Shadow the protagonist.
Still, I hope to have boss fight with Infinite and Sonic
@wongnexus7716 would of been cool if they added those boss fights

@XavierLeyva I accept Sonic one. But we have the stage of Sonic Force. That's why I hope for Infinite's appearance

8:00 the infamous roundhouse claims another victim.
Ah yes, the almighty head kick that even silver fears
Ironically it claimed another that was introduced from the same game it appeared in

Storytelling through gameplay.
"Black Doom may have been your father, boy. But he wasn't your daddy."
I’m darn proud you’re my boy.
No wonder Shadow sounds so bored when he's watching Sonic fight the Time Eater.
Because it’s less ‘bored,’ and more ‘exhausted.’
Mom can we have Super Shadow?
We have Super Shadow at home
Super Shadow at home:
16:34
Imagine the form gave Shadow a more alien appearance, sorta like Eclipse The Darkling from the Archie comics. That would be cool.
What's funny is that it's just as good as the real thing.
Especially with that FUCKING SONG!!😍

I’m still shocked there wasn’t a shadow the hedgehog stage in this game, going back to westopolis. Give all the 100% edgehog players ptsd
The fact shadow beat all of these a holes without taking off his inhibitor rings is absolutely wild.
Dude was basically styling on them while not needing full power to rekt them
I find it cool that Metal Overlord recognizes Chaos Control. I haven’t played or seen anything of Heroes so I wasn’t expecting that.
He used Chaos Control in Sonic Heroes.
The final phase of Mephiles can be made much easier by always using chaos control when the giant emerges. You can also optimize the ramming by not pressing dash again until you’ve connected *and* reoriented forward.
I've been retrying Metal overlord all night. Feels like to get a S rank in that hard mode you need to be perfect
Just skip the tail sweep area and you should be fine
@@YoshKenand get the volley ball right
Seriously this is a good difficulty

Also Like That You Thought You Could Get Away With The Music.
Bummed Infinite doesn't pop up, even though Sunset Heights gets a level. Would have been really cool to see him confront Shadow again
Well it wouldn’t make sense since Generations take place before Forces but yeah that would be a cool boss fight.
@vexversaa239 sunset heights is quite literally a level in the game though??? death egg robots and all??? i don't see how generations taking place before forces would stop infinite from appearing if sunset heights (AND chaos island, which is from frontiers) appears in the game
The voice acting is awesome
This was absolutely epic and awesome! 👍🤩🤟
Shadow defeating these bosses in his normal form and alone just shows how strong he as become
This is my opinion but I think they should make another Shadow game and bring back Mephiles, maybe make him the main villain maybe if Ian Flynn has a good story and maybe a new form

Doom dead ass went from being voiced by Goku to being voiced by Eric Sparrow.
18:51 The quick time event mix with All Hail Shadow... ABSOLUTE PEAK!
2:22 Ping Pong😂
And just like that, Metal Overlord went from being my least favorite boss to my 2nd favorite
It seems like the doom surf take time to get used to
Obviously the best boss is obviously
Is zavok 🎉
My only change would be if the fight was surfing on a sea of cloud like in Sonic Heroes final battle, Still this fight is Metal af
For whatever reason in my game when I held down the button to hit doom it would NEVER do the combo!! As a result my boss fight was insanely slow and annoying. Glad to see something was definitely wrong lol
Metal Overlord deserved more
Metal sonics voice was off to me, it sounded more like the afton voice from the security breach trailer for fnaf
Yeah, as a Heroes Kid, it sounded like Bowser to me, or someone trying to sound tough (which i guess sorta works for Metal, considering the whole 'identity crisis' thing)
This is so fucking sick
What are those blue things Neo Devil Doom os launching at Shadow? Blue flames?
After learning what the hell the diary of Gerald was saying about the biolizard... I feel reaaaaally bad for it
Shadow is cool 😎
Hey everyone I extended the boss gate theme to 30 mins on my channel, enjoy
How do you access hard mode bosses for shadow?
Unlock doom wings and White Space should be red
Nice
the doom abilities in this game are so broken and Slippery its almost unfair
Mephiles and biolizard are too easy to S rank imo
On my S rank runs for both of them i had a death
Shadow - SpongeBob
Mephiles - DoodleBob
Mephiles: "You Mephiles! Me Shadow!"
Bummer.
No emerl or infinite
And mephiles seems way too easy to fight.
Well.. he wasn't hard in the original either tbh. Between Egg Wyvern and Iblis 3rd form
@@Rizer_70 yeah but like this is generations and hes supposed to be desperate and enraged since he wanted so badly to exist
@@MisterKenKyeah in 06 he Had 2 Chaos Emeralds and his boss fight still wasn’t too hard
