So I feel bad saying this but I was actually a little disappointed with the story in #ShadowGenerations? It's still very good but I guess I was expecting something a bit more meaty, especially with all the buildup from Dark Beginnings, but I only ever see people saying how it's 9/10 amazing.

The way it is now it feels like Shadow barely has any agency over his own story; it just sorta happens around him. We really needed a moment where Shadow was given the power and opportunity to change the timeline and save Maria but chooses not to.

Heck, this was basically our one and only opportunity for something like a Majin Vegeta version of Shadow to occur. Iizuka has already said that he's interested in exploring that "evil" side of Shadow again, why not here?

I guess I just wanted more emotional struggle and higher stakes. Like what if Black Doom tried to manipulate Shadow by offering him the ability to save Maria from the ARK incident? Instead Black Doom just shows up and cackles about his grand plan, which seems very out of character honestly.

You are up to date.
