This is probably a niche topic - but with how long you are a sonic fan, do you have some interesting examples of "revisionism" about the franchise and peoples reception of it. For example the infamous "sonic was never good xd" , things like that, lies that just get propegatiated by weird naratives and naive consumers.
I mean the general thing is that I'm getting old enough now to understand the generational shift in things. People who are now in their mid-to-late 20's putting games like Sonic Heroes and Shadow the Hedgehog on pedestals.
I've talked for years about how there were games I played when I was 8-10 years old that, at that age, I had no idea were "bad games" and thus developed nostalgia for. The one I always go back to is Awesome Possum. To a 11 year old in 1994, Awesome Possum did not seem like a bad game.
Or maybe it did. I don't know. 1994 was a long time ago, and the thing about nostalgia is that memories get sweeter with age. So I don't remember hating it as a kid, but maybe I did think it was weird, at least.
Shadow the Hedgehog is a bad game. I will hear no arguments otherwise. You can love Shadow the Hedgehog, I won't deny you that, and I may even help you celebrate that game, because feeding on that kind of positivity is fun in and of itself. But on its own terms, taken at face value, it is objectively soul crushing.
And Sonic Heroes is a game that is deeply unremarkable. Recently when the fake rumors of a Sonic Heroes remake were being surfaced, I often described the game as "Not bad enough to make fun of, and not good enough to love." Which is its own special kind of curse and may even be worse than simply being "bad."
But for a person who was the right age when these games came out, their memories sweeten with age, and they seek to recapture what it felt like to be 11 years old and playing Sonic Heroes for the first time. And hey, unlike Awesome Possum, Sonic Heroes is not actually that bad of a game. So it's even easier to reinforce that nostalgia.
Quality is not an objective, timeless scale to weigh things on. Quality changes on the moment it's presented it, and the mood it has been received with. Quality changes. Which is why, in the right audience, even a soul-crushing game like Shadow the Hedgehog can be enjoyable.
I don't know where I'm going with this but it will always be funny to me how many people 10-15 years younger than me express love about Sonic Heroes just because they were too young to have a bigger, more nuanced critical opinion about it when it was new.

I'm designing Awesome Possum fan characters send help (I think it should be pretty obvious who the two bad guys are inspired by)

obscure mascot platformers
I wish they'd made a comeback, to be honest. You don't see them much anymore, and whilst many were kinda bad, they had potential (can't be any worse than Blinx, after all). With modern hardware, we could have more vibrant graphics and more cartoony sort of sprites. Remaking Bubsy: Claws Encounters Of The Furred Kind or Gex could be a great move, all things considered - especially if they were multi-platform.

After pondering for some time, i might name it Raindrop. I think that it matches its grey coat, kind of like a rainy day, and there was a really cool idea to do a drop name in the comments! I am very happy with this name!!

HE GOES!
... It’s Awesome Possum, a legendarily ‘chatty’ marsupial from a mediocre mascot platformer. He got a lot of hate for never shutting up, but there was a menu option to curb his babble. Still needs a little work, but this little idiot’s going on a t-shirt because I have no taste,
This’s the third attempt at stitching as the first two had unworkable gaps. I thought the material wasn’t hooped correctly, which it wasn’t, but the gaps were still there. I missed doing more overlap on the tip of his tail, but it’s kind of ridiculous how much I need to overshoot the borders.
Is that normal? My machine endured a couple of house moves, plus it’s a single-color combination sewing and embroidery unit, so, uh...
