Description Clothes have never been my strong suit when it comes to drawing, so it’s worth practicing at.

When it comes to Sonic games, I have a love-hate relationship with them. I think that that they contain a lot of creative content; the issue is that most of them do not utilize them in the most ideal way, especially the newer ones. The characters for instance: Sure they have an overabundance of them, but so does Game of Thrones and Harry Potter. The difference there is that they’re put to good use.

Most people these days want the Sonic games to back to basics and simplicity, which is understandable. Sonic Mania was not a success without a good reason after all. But I dunno, simply going back doesn’t seem like the answer to me. For instance, a common critique of Force Awakens was that it was more of a Best Of than an independent movie.

Ergo, I would enjoy that the makers of Sonic gamers make a compromise between the contents of their big selling product, taking what is timeless about it and utilizing it with the inventiveness of today.

I must say, really liking the various outfits, specially the 2nd and hey it involves my fav character from the games. So, double the sweetness! Though, I will agree it would work if they combined things to make a good Sonic game, I wasn't really a big fan of Mania because to me it was too much nostalgia pandering.

I did enjoy the new content they added to Mania, such as the animated cutscenes and the boss fights. Heck, the callbacks to nearly forgotten characters such as Bean, Nack and Bark was nice touches, though I would've preferred them as their own characterizations as opposed to illusions. It would've created some variation to Sonic's rogue gallery. I also like that they're going to add Migthy and Ray as playable characters in the upcoming DLC.   
But with that said, I would've enjoyed the game a lot more if they added more original content like this.

Yeah, honestly if it did more of it's own thing instead of reusing stuff from the older games I'd probably would have enjoyed it more. I will agree that seeing Nack (or Fang), bean and Bark was really sweet.
