I asked this question 10+ years ago with that 2006 sonic game that we all try to forget, and I ask it now, even if sonic has supposedly gotten good again? (Apparently sonic generations was not bad so...)
But it's just amazing that the franchise still apparently has these loyal followers nearly 30 years after the fact. It's like... how? --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

my friend had a theory that people who grew up in broken homes grew extremely attached to Sonic because while it was mediocre it was consistent and comforting

I asked this question 10+ years ago with that 2006 sonic game that we all try to forget, and I ask it now, even if sonic has supposedly gotten good again? (Apparently sonic generations was not bad so...) Sonic has had plenty of good games even recently. Mania was fantastic. Forces was a disappointment, but not necessarily bad. It was fine, but people just expected more coming off of Generations. A lot of people also seem to forget that Sonic has been on a bit of a pause when it comes to mainline releases. Generations was the big budget mainline game before Forces, and that was almost 8 years ago. Lost World was made by the B team and didn't even play like most Sonic games, and Boom was a weird experimental spin off. So people who say stuff like "there hasn't been a good game since Generations" don't actually look and realize we haven't had much sense then. --- Nintendo Switch Friend Code: SW-3032-7898-9500 http://psnprofiles.com/Terraforce777 http://miiverse.nintendo.net/users/Rayquaza487 ...

Sonic Mania is one of the best 2D platformers of the past few years. personally I thought the levels were way too long, especially in comparison with 1-3. level length is just about right when you consider CD though I hear based on who made it that's probably what they were going for --- 7Dd_jr_dF0Y ...

mania was good because of its quality, varied level design that allows for tons of replays
it's surprisingly long for a twelve-zone game because its levels are just so big and have so much to see and find it remembers the old stuff while being bigger and better than the stuff it emulates its level design can be too long for some and all the bosses, while creative, are annoying the series has been mediocre-bad ever since sonic adventure, with a few handheld games and mania being the actually good games released in that entire span of time people are shockingly forgiving of the flaws of sa2 or heroes, secret rings, or even 06 ...

Sonic's continued relevance perplexes me. You have some great games on the Genesis, then 20 years of mediocre to outright awful games. Sonic Mania comes around and is great, then that same year Sega shits out Sonic Forces which is one of the worst games they've put out. How is the series not dead? Who is buying these bad games?!
