Q&A Video (Ask Questions Here)

hey it's been a year and a half since the last one (and over a year since your last patreon post) just checking in since I noticed

AnonKaiju

Take me back in time

Dr. Cross

What sonic games have your opinions changed on over the years. Are there any sonic games you liked as a kid/on launch but dislike now and vice versa?

AnonKaiju

Could you give us an idea of your life outside of being the internet's #1 Sonic fan?

yokhaiwatch

Can you share your YouTube algorithm secrets?

How many joypads did you break by throwing them in anger as a child?

Suzanne Clark

Please do your best Robotnik impression for us. (Optional 😄)

Suzanne Clark

Why do you refuse to talk about the most important Sonic character in the franchise, Bartleby Montclair of Dresdin, the richest and sexiest man on Earth, bitch?

Hey homie - I think "The Greatest Video of my Career" is truly the greatest video of your career. I only started watching since your recent comeback, and that video in particular really shows the humility you have that separates the great from the good (you are the great btw). Anyways my Q is will you please make an Only Fan and show us ur hedgehog?

Dr. Cross

Have you considered buying/streaming the new Sonic pack once you beat Minecraft in around 3 or 4 streams (hot estimate :^) )? Thanks a lot for putting the VODs on youtube too!

dfug1337

Regarding The Sopranos, what aspects of the show/story/characters do you notice and find interesting that aren't often discussed?

Alex Yard

I remember you following Strong Bad on Twitter and making a few Homestar references here and there. What's your favorite sbemail? Or H*R toon in general.

S. Matt Maiola

Which game, Sonic or otherwise, do you think had the most wasted potential?

What is your favorite non-Sonic-related game or franchise? Also, you seem knowledgeable about the history of philosophy; have you ever studied philosophy in the classroom or on your own time?

Anonymous

I second that super monkey ball would be a fun stream. Also your streams are good.

Dree

What Sonic fan games/unofficial games have you played? The one where he gains weight from the rings?

Suzanne Clark

What's your thoughts on how the internet has slowly become more closed in (if that makes sense) over the years?

Hi Cybershell! I'm a huge fan and couldn't miss the opportunity to participate in a Q&A. I have a two-part question. Part one: have you ever considered making a video about My Immortal, the infamous Harry Potter fanfiction? I think it's right up your ally when it comes to weird internet shit. Part two: do you read any comics besides the Sonic comics? I'm a big fan of Batman and would pay ungodly amounts of money to hear your thoughts about the Batman lore, which is even better than Sonic lore if I do say so myself.

It doesnt, there’s some quiet rustling

ASBR

Are you a fan of the Legend of Zelda series? also, a Super Monkey Ball 1 or 2 stream could be fun

Goose Footler

Are you interested in ever having an intro or someone make a jingle for you? ;) Keep up the awesome videos, don't rush yerself

Stop saying ur bad at streaming I rly enjoy ur streams!!!!1! Also Q: Who is your favourite Sonic character of all time who isn’t Sonic himself if you HAD to choose one (this is life or death)

much like soda steal, are there any more obscure 2000s internet anomalies you would be interested in covering at some point?

When you beat the shit out of a chao, does any part of you feel a bit bad, even though it essentially is just a bunch of 0s and 1s and not a living creature?

Suzanne Clark

Is Tails secretly a badnik?

Suzanne Clark

I don’t really have a question, but I want to say that even if I don’t play the Sonic games, I find your deep dives on the subject fascinating and I’d listen to you rant about everything from how Chaotix’s box art isn’t good to the fact that a ball for 3 year olds is the rarest Sonic toy. It’s all good stuff. Ok maybe I do have a question- can you talk about Sonic Underground more in depth? I think it’s hilarious they cancelled the show before they found their mom.

Cody

Thoughts on JSR/Sonic Rush composer Hideki Naganuma's twitter/tweets of the past year or so?

MrShadow675

Are you still going to cover the Fleetway comics?

ShiftingFlesh

What are your thoughts on Alix Henriol and Sonic Passion?

Outside of gaming, do you have any favorite hobbies?

Riotai

What's one thing SEGA would have to do with Sonic the Hedgehog to make you completely cut ties with the franchise?

Riotai

what's your favorite sonic game that released in november 1997?

James Spychalsky

Yeah the soda steal video was great. I like your other game videos too even if they're games I never even played or heard of but my favorite non-Sonic videos of yours are chronicling online legends like that. As for a question, what age and how did you get into Sonic? What was your gateway into the series?

Haruhi-50X

Do you want scissors? 61?

Suzanne Clark

Would you ever stream a GameCube game like Super Mario Sunshine or Luigi's Mansion? Or maybe you could stream you and your friends playing Sonic Shuffle, or Mario Party 4 since MP4 reuses some minigames from Sonic Shuffle like the skydiving minigame. Also, if you didn't know, with Dolphin (the GameCube emulator), you can use netplay to play with friends online, so MP4 might be the better option.

Question!: I have noticed you're a fan of Simon Hanselmann's work. Do you read any other alternative comics? Any older stuff like Daniel Clowes and Charles Burns? Or do you mainly stick to newer millennial slice of life stuff like Gabrielle Bell. Also if you are a fan of Clowes, what do you think of the movies made of his works? I think Ghost World is a masterpiece that is pretty timeless for people going through post-teen angst, I thought Art School Confidential was a miserable mess and I thought Wilson was above average. I am scared for the Patience movie. Also, do you like Twin Peaks? Are you excited for Wysteria?

Novel

I know you previously stated that there are some older games you enjoy that aren't Sonic related (Banjo, DK 64, etc.) but are there any more games that have recently come out that you have enjoyed?

How you doin?

Any games you've been playing off-stream?

Cubik

If I go back up to 5 dollar tier do you promise not to disappear again? Slightly more frequent streams would probably entice me in that direction as well, you know, just saying.

Neoviper

I don't need to know exactly when, but just tell me there's an ulillillia video coming at some point. I find him to be a fascinating individual, and would love to hear your perspective on some of the stuff out there about him.

Neoviper

Do you have a favorite movie? Besides the Sonic OVA of course (; I enjoy your internet stories like the recent Operation Soda Steal video and the An Internet Hero video and I was wondering if you'd ever consider making a movie review at some point of some sort.

Ethan Lozoya

Have you ever found yourself quoting Sonic in real life situations? "Yeah..... not bad"

Suzanne Clark

Will you be doing another Sonic race, maybe with Mania? Would Simply Dad get stuck on a boss again?

Suzanne Clark

What is your favourite SA1 subplot? Burger shop romance? Gambling addiction mum? Two timing guy?

Suzanne Clark

Do you think the core idea for Sonic CD of a huge open level has potential?

Rufus Isaakov

What do you think regarding the "meme-iness" of current sonic (so much so that it actually started to bleed into games, and not just be a thing Twitter Sonic does)? LS Mark covered this topic in his video "Sonic is missing"

Rufus Isaakov

Why does the Mystic Ruins music begin with a long silence?

Suzanne Clark

Why do you like Baja blast so much???

Selfishly, I would like to know why you were missing for a couple of years.. Very glad you returned, I was checking for you like every month.

ASBR

What's a better method for egg white cocktails. Wet shake, dry shake or reverse dry shake?

Did you draw Sonic art as a kid? I know you did, show us!

Bester

Do you miss anything about your LP days?

I was wondering if you were ever going to talk about the Earthbound series. Also, I'm looking forward to your next stream, you rock.

WaylonPK

do you ever wonder if people are submitting multiple questions to pad this out because they disbelieve it'll get more than like 50 total questions

June Guts

Do you think you’ll ever do another let’s play? Your SA2 stream got my mouth watering for more commentary from my favorite lore master

isn't it weird how people really parasocial onto online personalities and ask really personal questions

June Guts

Any thoughts on freedom planet and other sonic-like games?

RockmanXEXE

are you as siked as i am to not have to think about politics for a while

June Guts

actually i think speeding up a youtube video, unless you have absolutely no respect for what you're watching or just need a specific piece of information, is fucking sacrilegious

June Guts

Do you partake of any... experience enhancers? (drugs, alcohol, 2x speed on YouTube, etc)

June Guts

What's your favorite Jojo part?

Zaneme

Are you a fan of any "Annie mays"?

When can we expect your cooking channel to be a thing?

avfusion

Related to Niltiac's question above, I've often wondered if you have any background in philosophy. (You're pretty analytical, and you made a joke about the Chinese Room thought experiment in one of your videos.) [BTW your streams have been awesome, I wouldn't change a thing imo.]

Actually unironically, what the fuck is the connection between Sonic and Pinball? There is SO MUCH pinball in the Sonic games! CD got a fuckin' Pinball-mechanic Boss. Worst pinball is probably Sonic Adventure. Sorry SA chads, it just feels awful to pinball in that game.

June Guts

Hey Cybershell! Quick Question: Make a video about Sonic Spinball.

June Guts

Are you excited for the new Sonic game? Were you shy in making a face reveal when you made the “Friendship With Sonic Has Ended” video? Do you have a favorite superhero? Big fan of your content and you’re so funny. Keep up the great work!

hey how’s the heatwave treating you over at Washington? First off glad you might consider going through with the P. O. Box stuff, it would be awesome to send you some stuff. Would you be considering opening what you are given on a stream or vid or just in general? Second, how do you go through trying to not suffer from Sonic burnout? As you are someone who is majority known to have always done Sonic but now slightly switching over to other things, will that change the way you feel about the franchise if you get what I mean? Third (trying to keep my questions at a minimum), would you ever consider doing more videos or even a stream with you on screen not just VO? I don’t know you give off this funny vibe every time your on screen it’s hysterical. Welp that’s all I got, hope your well! -Siria

Multixloves

Something I've been slightly curious about for a while is your education/work background. Did you go to college? Do you have a day job? Are you just coasting by on that sweet, sweet Patreon skrilla?

What are your opinions on the sonic rangers leaks?

Is there any piece of sonic media that you will never do or don't see yourself doing anytime soon because of any specific reason?

Jeff Emerson

Have you played the sonic handheld games (the advance games, the rush games) and if so which one is your favorite?

What other hobbies do you have?

gnar

as a sopranos fan, how do you feel about the trailer for the new movie ?

Dree

Most enjoyable and unenjoyable video to make?
