>Anon, most of the games that come after it have Eggman as the sole villain and they're all fucking terrible.Original Colors is significantly better than Unleashed, even counting the complaints about "baldy nosehair." Lost World is about the Fearsome Five. Forces is about Infinite. Mania is all about Robotnik and his creations and it's sterling silver if not solid gold.
>And even excluding Unleashed, Battle and Advanced + Black Knight exist. Which are all good to great.Spinoffs where one would expect none of the usual Sonic trappings by the very nature of being isekai. Unleashed purports itself to be mainline but has less Sonic DNA than the game where he's a knight with a sword in furry Camelot. I liked the ghost house cartoon too, anon, but it's just a really bad game.
