Yeah of course. I find it jarring and hilarious in Heroes when things become demented. I will say that stages tend to be very long as you progress, its worse with Team Sonic/Dark in the later levels. I don't wanna spend more than six minutes to complete a stage! lol

hmm, I have a question though, what do you think of the characters?

The characters? I've always been fond of Shadow. Sonic is cool. I like most of the older characters, though some of them are rather under utilized in stories. In terms of new characters, I think the only one from Unleashed forward I've especially liked so far is Infinite. Extremely edgy, very entertaining. xD

That's fine, but that's not what I meant lol

I meant how the characters behaved during this time period, their words, their actions, the writer's portrayals of the characters

In the Meta era, the characterizations...are pretty bad. With few exceptions, the characters are either written either as extreme jerks or or just one note. Tails is a constant victim of this, as the writers have no idea how to handle, and Lost World was at his worst, turning him into a jealous idiot for no reason.

Ah, I see your meaning now. I think that's true. xD

I think this has been an emerging issue roughly since Sonic Heroes, but it has been at its worst since Colours.

Probably the best game for characterization in my opinion is Sonic Battle on the GBA. xD Very rich storytelling in that game. Dreamcast era also did pretty good, as with the Storybook spinoffs.
