Somewhat, but the side effect is that every single Sonic upload gets downvoted unless it’s a well-known artist

…So the Sonic All-Stars Racing games have a super large cast with all sorts of SEGA characters, from well-known to obscure.
 
I guess you could say it has a… Dream Cast.

Tails is pretty much a prime example of what a sidekick should look like; all too often such come off as cheap, contrived tools rather than unique characters. Hell, I didn’t even catch on to the whole engineer angle in the Genesis days (unless they just added that later), but that still left a shy, loyal orphan with a birth defect that allowed him to fly (which I guess is super powers in a nutshell, or at the very least Marvel’s brand of mutants, and I think early on they tried to market Sonic as a superhero), and at least back then he stood out (although I could also say the same for Shadow). In fact, AI aside, I think everybody was glad to see Tails; I know I was.
 
Also, concerning the “pressure” you speak of, Tails did have that coming-of-age character arc in SA where he struggled to “fly solo” (even though nearly all of his levels ironically require you to beat Sonic in a race before that even came to a head, plus he did have a couple of his own games on the Game Gear). Actually, in one scene I think they actually hinted at Tails feeling under appreciated.
 
…as fun as the humor in the modern games are, and as much as some fans will insist that Sonic doesn’t need a story (even though the Genesis games, especially S3&K, clearly had one), I actually miss the days when the characters were characters, that were part of something bigger than going from point A to point B and made the lore relevant (I mean, for crying out loud, the Chaos Emeralds aren’t even in Sonic Boom, whereas SatAM at least had something like a Chaos Emerald (largely to explain where power rings come from) that the Archie comics basically retconned with actual Chaos Emeralds, just sayin’). Yeah, okay, so SEGA’s saga may not exactly be Shakespeare, but it has had moments where it shined.

In the Genesis days it was never really stated in the Sonic games beyond him flying the Tornado that Tails had engineering abilities, it was in one of his own spin-off games that it was introduced and not seen again until Sonic Adventure.

Tails’ Workshop was actually from Tails Adventure, the same one where his engineering abilities was really introduced, by about a year before Sonic the Fighters, it also takes place chronologically before Sonic the Hedgehog 2 so he moved his workshop since then.

…wait, so he defended an entire island before he even MET Sonic?
 
Geez, what the hell happened between then and now? You’d think Tails would be the time lord and Sonic the companion rather than what they’ve been pushing this whole time.

@Sono  
Yeah. Tails gets a nasty case of jealousy in Sonic: the Lost World when Sonic starts palling around with Eggman, going on about how his accomplishments don’t get any recognition. And while it’s been a while and I should probably replay it, I think something similar happened in Sonic: Chronicles.
 
@EHAN  
Do it. Give in. Do not resist the power of puns.
 
@RIG  
I don’t recall seeing much shitposting. There’s some pretty nice crossover art here. Also with the new complex filters you can hide Sonic pics with a low score while keeping those with a decent/high score meaning you can hide the shitposting while keeping the good posting.
 
@archestereo  
Because retcon/later development and not being main character?

@EHAN  
Yeah, Sonic Adventure 2 had some pretty kickass music tracks.  
Although, I did find they lost some of their charm when going back through the levels to grind for Chaos Drives and Animals for Chaos.

Personally, I think the weakest stage theme in the game is probably Mission Street, but even that one’s not BAD, it’s just not as good as some of the other themes in the game.
