Perhaps his theme was meant to show how pretentious Infinite is, when in reality he's an immature bully who's nothing without the Phantom Ruby. Also, one of the lines is "Only scars remain of who I was.", but Infinite isn't shown to have any traumatic backstory other than his encounter with Shadow (unless that's the event that scarred him).

It's because they screwed up his backstory. In the prequel comic infinite lead a squad of jackals called... The jackal squad. (Very creative I know) and apparently they're mercenaries or something that went raiding eggman's base but eggman a few minutes prior found the phantom ruby, and even if he didn't know what it was, when they attacked him it spawned eggman mechs to help him out and when infinite Attacked him it showed both of them visions of... ( I don't remember what it was) and eggman punched him, knocked him on the ground and just was like "hey, why don't we team up to rule the world together?" And infinite accepted. Why am I bringing up all of this? Because later in episode shadow, before shadow beats up infinite, he says something about shadow having eliminated his squad or something. And instead of having him go nuts because his squad was anhilated. They make him go nuts because shadow called him weak. The comic also didn't explain a lot since it felt like they were really rushing through the story beats, but it was a prequel comic, and it is free online. But if you want to prove just how incompetent pontacc and graf are at writing, this is it right here. The comics had a fine setup for a villain, and they just used whatever to make him evil. To circle all back to infinite's theme, I wouldn't be surprised that those really overdramatic lyrics were probably talking about infinite, the guy who lost his friends to shadow, and not infinite, the guy that got mad over shadow calling him weak. (I know this comment is way too long for being a reply to a one year old comment but what can I do.)
@mcmistle9892

Gotta love Sonic’s minimal reaction to his friend Shadow turning evil once again, it says something when he shows more concern in the Shadow 05’ game. In Forces it sounds more like Shadow’s been eating other people’s food in the company fridge. Shadow and Chaos as clones is the purest embodiment of drawing from nostalgia without understanding/caring about why people like those things. To market them in a well animated trailer and not do ANYTHING with them besides cutscenes? I find that despicable. Infinite himself is a mess of a character, spread out across three pieces of media and still only feeling loosely connected. He has no real motives other than destroy, no actual nemesis in the game, and lacks in presence. They referred to him as ‘The Masked One’ a few times at the start of the story. For six months NO ONE knew his name? They have to save it for when Sonic and Infinite meet a second time, and Sonic’s just brushing him off as nothing despite well knowing his power. Plus a normal soldier can stand his own against Infinite. Why should I take him seriously? His own mess with Shadow is something I’ve talked about in my own stupid video(shameless plug but I don’t feel like adding it in the comments). Zavok is the only copy to have dialogue, and a boss that’s actually unique in the boost formula. I would say that’s sad, but hey, good for Zavok fans I guess. Even my Main Man Metal Sonic was forgettable. Just watch SA2’s Shadow and Dark Story characters for good Sonic Villains. All the Forces guys suck. Edit: OH. And Eggman barely factors into the game. The GAME where he WINS. No cunning plan. No stand out moments. SA2 Eggman wins. Also Edit: I’d like to think that Silver boss fight mention was a reference to me...*but that’s just my ego talking.* Also also edit: The strength of these copies is inconsistent. It’s said that they’re as strong as the original. Classic Sonic and Shadow can kill them in one hit. Sonic takes awhile with Zavok. It takes Knuckles AND Silver to take down a Chaos copy?

Red is definitely an overplayed colour in the Sonic franchise.

Sonic 06 has it's problems,but it pretty much under lined his character growth with his campaign. Him choosing to side with Eggman,just so he can get Maria back, is a betrayal of his character arc. Also,Shadow is NOT the gullible type like Knuckles so I don't think Eggman tricking him would make sense. Of course these days,Sonic Team(and by extension Sega) don't seem to have any idea who Shadow is as a character anymore so he's written to be this dark edgy tryhard.

It's honestly very sad to see the idea of Dr. Eggman actually taking over the world successfully being wasted in the final product. It would have been SO darn cool to see the returning villains as illusions from the Phantom Ruby and actually fighting them. Not to mention, this would have been one of my all-time favorite Sonic games ever. However, as we saw already, the game ended up falling flat so hard due to how insanely lackluster the execution in the final game was. Zavok, in particular, shouldn't have come back to begin with due to how awfully one-dimensional his character is; moreover, he's not even that popular to begin with either. Dr. Eggman's character, for the first time ever, was not that good there. His character is shockingly limited, and I ABSOLUTELY HATE that! Furthermore, I would have LOVED to see Sonic actually being tortured by Eggman through his robots (and Infinite), breaking his spirits in the process. It SERIOUSLY would have been a perfect way to set up Sonic's character development, something I have been waiting for my whole life. Sonic Forces would very likely see Sonic slowly but surely regaining his good ol' self from months ago before he was captured and tortured, as you similarly addressed in the 5:00 - 5:20 mark. Although it would have been heartbreaking to see Sonic suffering from emotional trauma, as it would require his friends to give him support and help him recover, it would have been very satisfying to see him slowly regaining his old self from months ago. It's honestly a shame that we never got to see that 'cause SEGA is too afraid to take any larger risks for the Sonic franchise, which is why I am going for a very similar approach for a full-on remake for Sonic Forces' story with a friend of mine over on Twitter and DeviantArt. It's also a HUGE shame to see Chaos, Metal Sonic, and Shadow (though it would have been much better to have Mephiles instead of Shadow) being wasted. Maybe we would have gotten a boss fight against Chaos 0 as Tails, and we especially would have gotten a boss fight against Shadow, which would have given us a really good throwback to the boss fight against him in Sonic Adventure 2. If it was Mephiles instead, however, it would have given us a very good throwback to the boss fight against him in Sonic '06. I also REALLY didn't like how Metal Sonic's boss fight turn out. It was basically a copy/paste of Silver's boss fight from Sonic Generations, and nothing more, and... I don't like how forgettable that boss fight was. Infinite sounded like an awesome idea for a menacing villain, as we got to see his cool powers, but as we just saw in the final product, Infinite ended up being portrayed as a very childish edgelord, and we can clearly see that in his "backstory" in the Episode Shadow DLC. His backstory has got to be one of the worst things to ever come out of Sonic Forces due to how laughably bad that moment was. Basically, Infinite turned into a villain 'cause Shadow called him pathetic. This was extremely weak, and did not answer any of the questions about who Infinite was, and it's honestly a shame. A much better backstory for Infinite would be that he was bullied for having heterochromia as a child, resulting in him seeking revenge against those who made fun of him. It may sound cliché, but with the right execution, it probably would have made Infinite more sympathetic and likely would would have fleshed him out as a character, but NO... We ended up getting a backstory that is so lame that it made Infinite more and more forgettable, and it is devastating to see the potential of a new villain being wasted... All in all, Sonic Forces would have worked really, really well if it was executed properly, but as we just saw, it did not, and it's really sad to see this game ending up being one of the worst Sonic games I've ever played by far. I REALLY hope SEGA finally learns from their mistakes and start making better decisions next time as they have Sonic Team develop the next mainline Sonic game in the franchise. :|

Infinite makes me sad. He was so close to being a super awesome and epic villain but he suffered from Sonic Team not being coordinated (As he and the Phantom Ruby have two backstories going on in the same game) and he also suffered from not the best writing (Like *that* scene,) but I also really liked him in the rest of Episode Shadow and thought he was really cool because of it, not to mention all of his missed potential and his design, and he's my favorite villain since Mephiles (Although I admit Merlina's much better lol) so all of his missed potential makes me very sad and that's why he's my least favorite in the game Thanks for reading and have a nice day XD

You know how I would of written this? (Based on theories I remember from fans before relase): 1)Phantom ruby can open gateways to other dimensions aside of creating holograms 2)Chaos comes from the world he destroys, Shadow comes from the world he allies with black doom, Metal sonic comes from the world he took over everything’s after metal madness, and Zavok is gone, he is replaced by Dark Gaia taking a humanoid appearance 3)They are all controlled to an extend believing to be working for their cause under phantom ruby 4)They get phantom ruby powers pf creating physically short lived holograms, that they can use on their boss fights 5)Infinite is a kid that has been experimented with a phantom ruby replica, the only survivor who got to use the power to its fullest but it took a mental toll making him homicidal and mad 6)The torture is alluded in some moments sonic just freezes or is unable to fight alone because of emotional paim 7)The wisps are just fuel for his robots, they come from a dimension where eggman managed to do his Sonic Colors plans 8)The last fight Classic sonic is gone, the avatar is dead and both Sonic and Shadow take Eggman down seriously apparently killing him for good and he will be gone for years to come,being replaced by a copy robot for some games and if they ever brought him back again he would come from one of the phantom ruby gates, maybe shadow or chaos world Done

Great video, i appreciate you trying to be unbias but dude don't tell people to down vote your work. Your one of the better sonic youtubers out there. Down votes will have the youtube algorithm push your work to the side making it harder for people to find your videos. My least favorite villain is Zavok. Its not because I dislike the character, its the opposite. They did him and pretty much all the other villains in the game a disservice. I could get more into it than that, but I don't want to do my usual giant rant comments that I do on your videos. To be fair this is already a sizable comment when I haven't done any explanations.

Urgh, Sonic Forces. Nothing gets under my skin quite like this game. "Robotnik wins" is such an interesting set up. I was ecstatic when I saw the first trailer back in the day. And had the writers been willing to follow through with the darker tone, I think this could have been a real comeback for the series. Yet SOMEHOW they screwed it up. I'd have loved to see Robotnik have his big moment. Winning after 20+ years SHOULD be a big moment. They could have established him as this big threat, used Sonic's imprisonment as a chance to let the side characters shine like the heroes they're supposed to be, but no, Sonic's friends just sit around doing not much. Robotnik isn't well written, Infinite doesn't live up to his potential, the core cast are flanderized, and most of the big moments happen in cutscenes that aren't even particularly good. There's SO much they could have done with this story. I think it's pretty telling that almost every fan suggestion I've seen has more impact than the game itself. The writing is insulting, both to the characters and the fans, and it makes Forces one of very few games from this series I haven't been able to bring myself to finish. I agree with pretty much every point you two made here; "Wasted potential", "Here for the sake of being here"...unfortunately, that is exactly what Sonic Forces and its supposedly "high stake" cast of villians feels like.

Alternatively, Infinite's superiority complex could've been fleshed out more so that he'd come off as less of an idiotic generic doomsday villain and more of a bully who desperately wants others to fear him so that he'd be respected, while keeping the edginess to show how vain he is. By the climax, he'd have a breakdown speech that would be similar to the speech Scourge gives in Archie Comics' Issue #196: "You know what? Forget ruling both Moebius or Mobius. I'm Super Scourge. I'll spindash both planets in half because I can. And then I'll just keep stomping on planets until I find one that gives me the respect I deserve-" "HEY! I'M NOT DONE TALKING TO YOU!"

Actually, there's some... vague and almost non-existant hints about true motivation behind Infinite's actions, but they are so subtle and have no direct confirmation, that everything you will read below, should be considered as a head-cannon of few guys that were reading too much into Infinite. So... As i remember, Infinite was a leader in an elite group of mercenaries. And, if i'm remember correctly, other members were like a family to him. But what one of the first thing we hear when starting the first mission in Eggman's base? That all of the jackal squad was "wiped out" or something. After witch we never heard of them again And remember, that Shadow have a bad habit of destroing anything on his way. There could be a chance that Shadow went a little overboard and, probably unintentionally, caused their death. Again, it's only based on "whiped out" remark or somesuch, so it's can't be considered total proof. But that will give Infinite already a strong motive. Next(let's forget about Shadow being Mary Sue for a moment) - Shadow not just beaten, but litteraly destroyed Infinite in battle. Then - called him "weak" and just went away. Now if we assume that other members of jackal squad were, indeed, dead, Infinite's position looks very dark: someone just crushed him, killed everyone he loved, and then proceed to mock him at the death's door. After witch Shadow just went off, without even finishing the job. Without at least a mercy kill for an fallen one, like a final mockery between the lines of "you're so weak that even killing you is too much of a praise for you". When everything you know and love is gone, people, having a mental breakdown, usually either blame themselves, trying to just end this suffering... or, either, can find someone to blame all those misfortunes on, trying to prove that it was EVERYONES fault. And sometimes, those kinds of people want everyone to feel the same suffering they went through. And, actually, THAT'S the version of Infinite is the one I, personally, see as cannon. Yeah, i know that this is just a shabby headcannon, but it would fit Infinite SO well! That would actually explain many things. When anything you know and love is destroyed in front of you, when the pain from this loss is so severe, that you want everyone to feel the same pain as you do... THAT is a proper motivation for a villain. And that is what Sega taken from us. Kinda sad, don't you think?

Honestly, I never thought Zavok was that bad. Yeah he was nowhere near as well-written as other antagonists in their debuts, but I think he has potential to be a cool villain. This potential was recently tapped with the comics, where the consensus seems to be, he's actually interesting. Granted Sega didn't have to shove him down people's throats every single game, and I think the damage is done. But I think the next time he appears, he'll at least have much more to offer

Personally, I can't really agree to Infinite being too bad of a villain (except for not killing Sonic, of course) or that his cutscene being "cringey" but that's because I wrote an entire blog on his mental health so... yeah, I'm a bit biased. I found him to be a very fascinating character. His infamous "I'm not weak!" is actually a telling line of superior/inferior complex mixed with PTSD. Sure, being defeated sounds like a lame thing to have PTSD about until you remember Infinite is as cocky as Shadow... He's a successful in his own mind so being weak naturally fecked with his head. Honestly, in a couple ways, I can relate to his struggle. I mean, he literally fought with himself, went insane... I dunno, I wish he was more established, myself.

What makes Infinite's writing seem even more lazy is that his boss battle is literally just a reskinned Metal Sonic fight, with only a single new gimmick added to make it seem a little bit less like a copy. Hell, even the animations are exactly the same. Infinite had so much potential, but they completely butchered him.

Sure, that's easy to say on a surface level and say "*SEGA'S A BUISNESS FIRST, GAME DEV SECOND! WHAT DID YOU EXPECT?!*", but when you compare modern Sonic games to games like Sakura Wars, Yakuza: Like a Dragon, PSO2, Valkyria Chronicles 4 and other titles that SEGA treats with respect, you just can't help but see an inherent bias at SEGA and a lack of competence, creativity, and passion in Sonic Team. How much does "SEGA BEING A BUISSNESS FIRST AND A GAME DEV SECOND" really hold up?

Infinite could've been the next Shadow in terms of popularity if done right. Sonic team nailed his design and powers yet gave up on his backstory. Interesting enough in the prequal comics by IDW the reason Infinite hates Shadow is because he killed his entire squad during a mission eggman hired them for. Originally his name was Zero and he ran a mercenary company with his teammates names being based off of numbers. A popular alternative story people have for Infinite is giving him a redemption arc. Having the Avatar be either a member or friend of Jackal Squad and throughout the story is trying to save Infinite and return him back to Zero. If sonic team had more time to develop the game Infinite could've been a popular character.

How to write sonic characters correctly: go through each individual character and put their personalities together. Then make the villain with actually good backstory. The whole “I was called an idiot in 5th grade” story isn’t compelling or emotional. Try to make players relate with the villain. And if you are going with the “you’re weak” backstory, at least show that they did something to prove later on instead of magically willing power into existence. Then show how the characters interact with each other. Does it make sense? Do the characters act correctly? If so, then it’d be a good sonic game. And most importantly: Don’t waste perfectly good opportunities for boss fights against old characters with some of the easily most hatable characters in the franchise. Don’t let characters die in one hit during a cutscene. Long essay aside, these components are key to a good game in general, not just sonic games. It just so happens that sonic games need this advice the most.

@@crossfire34 It’s a theory that I came up with, “what if the Phantom Ruby came from the Time Eater”. The Time Eater & the Phantom Ruby can create purple-pink portals and can warp reality. The phantom Ruby could be made of the Time Eaters soul. When the Time Eater was destroyed at the end of Generations, it’s soul may have followed Classic Sonic into the new “mania dimension” and then it went into hiding inside the earth of Angel island (because the island is connected to the master & chaos emeralds) so it could turn itself from a disembodied soul to a physical stone like the emeralds are. Then in Sonic Mania, once it has manifested, it makes sure to attract Sonic & Eggman. Eggman, so a Super Sonic threat could be created and so it could turn his robots into it’s minions. Sonic, to collect the emeralds and stop the threat. If it was part of the Time Eater then it has seen everything Modern Sonic has done, including every time he has used the emeralds, so it’s soul would know how powerful they are. So it’s whole plan in Sonic Mania is to use Eggman to create a huge threat, use Sonic and the emeralds to stop the huge threat, then use the emeralds itself to chaos control a portal so it can get back to Modern Sonic’s dimension, take Classic Sonic with him and then find a pawn that’s powerful enough to kill them both, a damaged soul that didn’t want to be weak anymore...

Wait, I just had the sickest idea. What if, during the final battle, it was revealed that Eggman had the Chaos Emeralds the whole time and used them on the clones of Chaos in order to make an army of Perfect Chaos? That would be amazing!

Speed battle is probably the best thing to come from it (I'd know I'm pretty sure I have more hours in it than all sonic games I've played combined)

Sonic Forces being a "completely nothing game" and the way you delivered that line had me laughing.

Imagine they did something bold. Remove classic, he has no place in this story. Have a Sonic game where we only play the first and final level as sonic, and the rest as either the avatar, or other allies, as we try to save sonic, then help him find himself again. The whole wide cast giving back to the main hero for once. Now, one idea i liked is tails having lost it, but i'd play it differently. Hide tails most of the game. Then at the big battlefield scene, the EggCarrier flies over, with Sonic's logo hastily painted over the eggman faces. Tails comes into comes, looking more terrifying than any of the villains, as he orders to deploy all units, and a legion of repainted eggpawns, in the colorscheme of the tornado 2, drop onto the battlefield, supporting the heroes, led by the real Metal Sonic, and they create the opening for sonic, metal sonic, and the avatar character to breach into the final levels of the game, where metal sonic takes jabs at sonic about how he used to look up to sonic and want to be him, but not anymore, or maybe even "not this sonic, the real sonic"

In regards to your closing statement the problem with introducing the game to newcomers they have been doing that Sonic Team have been doing that with every game since Colours, Iizuka stated he want to appeal to casuals with colour, Mario fans with Lost World, Boom was supported to be dedicated to newcomers, and kept catering to casuals with Forces, enough with catering to casuals, when is Sonic Team going to make another game for us the fans?

It also sucks that Shadow in his DLC for Forces doesn't get any bosses

I think what’s more cringy is how some people fan over Infinite. Like… yikes. You’re telling me you’re obsessed with a character that has as much depth as a kiddie pool and as whiny as a literal child? My friend I need to you to look up the definition of “standards”, because apparently you don’t have any.

I agree. Infinite may be a disappointment but he had potential. Zavok is just boring and bland no matter what.
