I’m rewatching the cutscenes again for Frontiers and I think I’m overthinking things. However, I would like to know some of your ideas to my hypothesis:
Since Sonic’s friends are all digital-like due to Cyberspace, how do we know that they’re not Sonic’s memories of who they are to him and not the real physical forms? I ask because the Cyberspace levels are meant to influence Sonic and his actions throughout the game.
Like… they’re not there at all and this is all happening in Sonic’s head. Kinda like he’s imagining them to help ease some of his worry while he’s off on his adventure on Starfall Isles?

bruh can people chill on the Frontiers dlcs? let the devs release the stuff without backporting or datamining it ffs
also I see the tradition of "throw stuff to the wall and see what happens" contines at Sonic Team XD
also to be clear i'm not annoyed at you bout answering anon asks on it. I just find it kinda insulting that people are just. taking datamining and slappig it onto the game before the DLC is even out and spoilering it all for people actually wanting to go in blind.
(i may or may not be miffed at that anon though)
Understandable that you wanna go in blind, but Frontiers isn't the first game that was leaked ahead of time :P fans are curious and all. I still remember when Forces leaks got widespread lol
Sorry bud, I'm afraid that you need to blacklist "sonic frontiers spoilers". Hopefully people are courteous enough to tag them :\
(I concede that it might be too early to judge this update, since the script that got leaked has no context and the animations might be unfinished)

SPOILERS FOR SONIC FRONTIERS AHEAD!!!!
So i was playing Frontiers for a few hours today- okay most of the day actually. But like, i nearly fucking cried already??? And im not even at the end??????? Im at the last island though.
It physically pained me seeing his idle animations slowly start to show him more and more tired, and how he looks in cutscenes too. The whole Tails quests have left me REALLY hoping we might get a Tails game, like one literally just based on him and his own independent adventures and shit like that. That'd be such a neat way to build off of what Frontiers has set up for him!
The brotherly relationship between Tails and Sonic makes me so fucking happy too man,,, Like god fucking damn it, SONIC CALLS HIM "LITTLE BRO" LIKE THEY'RE ACTUALLY JUST BROTHERS,,,
I played a lot of the fishing minigame stuff with Big and it made me really want a post-game DLC where you can keep the fish you catch if you wanna and like.... put em in a fishtank or smthn, like a really BIG fishtank that you can decorate and shit, and you could buy decor and details + space for it with the tokens you get (because infortunately it seems that Big's fishing spot stuff has little purpose after the story is finished).
On the fourth island, Rhea Island, I nearly started to fuckin cry i was hit with so many emotions. The Ancients having to leave then being destroyed in the end, Sonic's idle animations showing the worst of his condition, the corruption taking over him more and more each tower....
AND GOD. FUCKING. DAMN IT.
You start off the island before the first tower and are in a MASSIVE FUCKING FIELD OF LAVENDERS. Afaik that's one of the only places in the game with a lavender field???? So now im just begging SEGA to make the Twitter Takeover stuff about Shadow liking lavenders canon by referencing him in that area, like.... if you go back there after the story (since having Sonic randomly mention Shadow while he's about to fuckin keel over would probably ruin the moment entirely lmao). LIKE COME ON. It's SUCH a pretty spot too you better fuckin believe I'm gonna draw art of Sonic bringing Shadow to the Starfall Isles post-story and shit like that just to show him the fields and the sights. You absolutely know I am.
The game overall just has such good fucking MUSIC!!! I'm like 90% certain that every mini-boss (big crazy battle enemy) has its own entire battle theme, which is ABSURD. There's none of the eventual monotony that BotW unfortunately ended up having, the enemies on every island differ AND they have features to them that actively prepare you for what you'll have to do in the future with the bosses and Titans. The game design, sound design, controls, designs.... It's all just so fucking amazing I can't even explain it properly. Every goddamn time I ran into another boss I'd be like "the fuck is this thing" and have to learn "new" mechanics that had ALWAYS been there, yet I'd just never used before. The world is INTERESTING, it's FULL and FUN to explore! That was one of the fanbase's biggest fears when the game was first announced, that the world would be empty and boring due to how Sonic needs space to go fast properly, but holy FUCK they nailed it!! They actually did it!! There are so many small locations that are just so beautiful. I really am excited for that future photo mode update, that's gonna be such a blast auuughh!!!
I really hope they continue to add more through DLCs as time goes on. While I'd KILL for a "Dark Expansion" DLC that adds in Rouge and Shadow (or even Omega as a secret borderline OP playable character lol), I know it probably wouldn't be able to work into the story so I doubt it'd happen?
Would be fun though, to get to explore as different characters during the post-game, hell maybe even have some characters explore together and interact in various locations somehow....
I wonder if someone would end up modding that or some shit lol.
But yeah, the game is fantastic and I'm going crazy over it, I just hope we do get some good stuff for the post-game, even if in the future.

Sonic Frontiers Update 3 Spoiler below because I had to draw something:
I absolutely LOVE the corrupted Sonic. The features are close to Fleetway so of course I had to draw him similar to it. A bit with my own take haha.
And Super Sonic with blue eyes ~ They fit him so well honestly.

You know (you know)
Every world will have its test (have its test)
Don't blame (don't blame)
For what I have become
You know (you know)
Every world will come to end (come to end)
And I'll (and I'll)
I'll create your final rest
Hi so ever since I finished Sonic Frontiers I couldn't stop thinking about how ironic these two endings might seem put together in retrospect 🤔
Funny, even their boss themes have similar titles but with opposite views...
"With Me" - "I'm with you"
[I know both games have been out for a while but I am gonna tag spoilers just in case]
