It's weird to me that no one has really done this yet. Yeah there are different re-takes on the idea of the Tails Doll, but none that actually stay true to the original curse and bring it to life in one coherent story. Would you want to see something like that? Is there a reason why it seems like no one has tried before?
Information on what exactly the Tails Doll "is" is pretty sparse on the original page, but I found a couple entries that give us an idea. Similar to X, the Tails Doll is also an entity that originates from another world, though unlike X it doesn't seem to like it there very much and doesn't have full control over it like X does. He did seemingly "create" at least some of the things there, as one of the entries say that he made Eggman, but to what extent I'm not sure. Some entries treat it as a fully digital entity, but most treat it as an actual physical doll that can attack you in the real world. From what I can gather, both are true to some degree. It was originally created during the production of Sonic R and is intrinsically linked to that game, somehow being a manifestation of a deep desire to bring fantasy to life. It's home world is literally the game itself, unlike X where the game is simply a window into his dimension. How that works across multiple copies I also have no idea, but it does and playing the game can attract him to you under certain circumstances.
What's your take on all of this? I suppose this confusion and all the contradictions kinda are to be expected with a semi-community driven thing like this, but I'd love to try and condense it all down into one clear picture. All of this is based on the original canon, which is documented on the old archived Quacker and Bowen blog if you wanna look into it yourself. https://web.archive.org/web/20051231021854/http://quackerandbowen.com/sonicr.htm
X gives people the bodies of their favorite character, but what if he got someone who hates all of them equally? Dont just say "their least hated," assume they legit just dont like any character.

I know that the characters do feel pain to some degree, but they never really act like it. Generally it seems like it just annoys them more then actually hurts, is this because pain is dulled or is it just because they've experienced so much pain that they've become numb to it?
"Hey that new AI you were working on is really cool! The NPCs feel super realistic and complex, good job!"
"You're really good at making all the sets for these adventures, they're gorgeous."
"I love the fact that you made multiple options for us. Letting the people that don't like horror take a more chill option is great and something I hope you continue to work on."
Seriously, this man gets flustered so easily and genuinely appreciates every time people even hint at having enjoyed his work. Constantly berating him for the things he does bad clearly isn't helping anything and is what led to him feeling underappreciated and crashing out. Compliment your fuckn' dungeon master, it's not hard. I get that being trapped sucked, but maybe try to form a decent relationship with your all powerful godlike ruler so that he can help make things as nice as physically possible for everyone. I mean, just LOOK at how he reacts with the Jax date scene, even though he knows it's staged he still seems genuinely happy to express himself.
Give me a week in the Digital Circus and I'd have Caine wrapped around my finger doing damn near anything I want him to.
Skill genuinely always feels like such a pitty point, like "yeah character X can punch ten trillion times harder, but character Y knows kung fu so it evens out lol." Are there any matchups out there where skill actually matters in determining the victor?
Bonus points if it's NOT street tier characters.
