#but many hardcore fans don't consume much media outside of Sonic

Personally I'm really happy with the decision to introduce original human villains to the SCU.

I understand a lot of people don't like it when they deviate from game stuff, but the series is already infamous for having almost no reocurring villains besides Eggman. And this is more than just an adaptation, it's a proper pillar of the Sonic franchise that can tell it's own stories and introduce its own characters.

#this is by no means a majority #but many hardcore fans don't consume much media outside of Sonic #so they don't engage with the SCU content in its own terms #everything that doesn't revolve around the game elements are treated like filler or padding #when in reality this is just part of the story being told #and if you purposefuly ignore vital parts of the story then you lose a lot of the experience #it becomes less of a film/show and more of a collection of easter eggs #knuckles show #sonic movie #wow got analytical for a sec Im glad no one reads the tags
