Just from the few clips we get here I think she's gonna be a really fun character. Goofy, daring and smart but has been isolated from society for so long she's just plain eccentric on top of it all.

And apparently best friends with Amy. This could be a good thing for Amy's character to draw her out of the shell of a character they've forced her into for the last ten or more years. Hopefully it's not as shallow as it was in Sonic Heroes, but I'm doubtful. The characterization in this game look like they might be miles ahead of everything else in the game series so far. Could be quite the new leaf to turn for the Sonic franchise.

I can't wait for Sonic Boom.

Sonic Boom is a pretty overlooked and hype game imo but this is basically a deviant art oc traced off of Marine.

This character really speaks to my demographic.

 

This character might actually be a good addition to the Sonic roster of characters. We'll see how she turns out...

Seems like an okay character! Sonic Boom is the only reason I'd want Fall to come!

I really don't understand why Sonic Team always feels the need to constantly create new characters with every game. I mean, none of the existing roster has any real depth to them. Why not take an existing character and use it as an opportunity to flesh out their history and personality?

Reminds me of that one squirrel girl... Sally, I think it was? Speaking of which, why was she never in any of the games?

She was actually originally planned to be where Amy is now but for reasons I don't quite recall she was replaced with Amy in Sonic CD. There was originally going to be a game based around the SatAM/Archie universe but it was scrapped before it was ever finished.

 

To this day, Sally has remained solely as a part of the Archie comics since the SatAM cartoon ended. The comics are still running but the only game appearance since then was in the minigame between levels in Sonic Spinball.

 

I've wanted a comics-based game since I was a kid reading the sub-50 issues of the comic. It'll never happen.

I dunno why they do it but it's not inherently a bad idea if they would stop trying to shove every other character into the game as well which takes up unnecessary screen time. It would expand the universe greatly to have many characters to use in multiple games.

 

Knuckles hasn't been in any of the recent games up to Generations and even then he, like many other characters, only got little more than a cameo-like appearance.

 

This is the main problem. Too many characters in one game so none of the new ones and none of the old ones get any meaningful screen time if they aren't Sonic.
