Quote

This is it! The end! (Of the arc, that is)

Everyone is focused on the command tower: if that goes down, the city will fall.

But are 3 teams enough to stop something it seems even Dr. Eggman can't control?

This sounds like another Metal Virus situation.

This actually worried me for a second, with the "IDW is failing" stuff going around

I mean it has been for a while, Sonic is one of the few things really doing well.

Like Eggman has created a situation that he can't control, like what happeened with the Metal Virus.

Is Eggperial City somewhat sentient or something?

[Kazhnuz]

Eggperial City can join Chaos, the Space Station Ark, Neo Metal Sonic, Gemerl, The Ark of the Cosmos, Dark Gaïa, the Deadly Six, the Metal Virus and the Starfall Islands in the club of "stuff Eggman thought he could control".

I wonder if there are actual links between the Metal Virus and Eggperial City, as technically both seems to be self-replicating entities, so I'm curious. It would be interesting if Eggperial City was something Eggman tried to "solve" the issues of the Metal Virus. My supposition for the moment is that Eggperial City might use nanomachines.

XD I feel like that describes every 3D Sonic game from 1998 to 2013

Precisely my point. I really don't get people that jump to conclusions basing their opinions on two vague sentences...

Now Sonic Generations actually comes across as a more creative storyline than this because that did not happen there

 

Also Battle and Advance 3 have the same deal.

Oh, I don't hold it against the series for doing that. It feels like the nature and fatal flaw of Dr. Eggman to have an ambition that he thinks he can manage until he can't. He has the 300 IQ, but is still petty and childish and self-absorbed.
