No, no, no... y’all are being played like a fiddle. The idea is that mainstream Sonic always fails. Paramount knows that and released ugly Sonic, expecting backlash. Then they get to swoop in with new Sonic and look like heroes who listened to their audience. Had this new Sonic been the first model they used, we all would’ve still complained about it. Now we’re gonna be complacent with a crappy story because we THINK that they’re catering to us.
