The writers for the Sonic games after Free Riders are really bad at their jobs. Looking back at the cutscenes from Colors, Lost World and Forces, it's clear that the writing team has no clue what they're doing. They've made Knuckles into an overconfident idiot, turned Sonic into a cocky brat that won't shut his mouth, destroyed Shadow's character entirely, turning him into another Vegeta clone and made Tails a know it all coward. Their villains don't have any memorable features other than Infinite's edge and Zavok's voice being DIO, and their humor is so mind numbingly cliché and dumb that it comes across as forced. The two writers said that when they started writing for Sonic they knew nothing about the series and it's characters, and it's clear to see they still know nothing now. 10 years of waiting for 1, just 1 good story, and they still haven't delivered. Sega need to hire the comic writers or get the Boom writers back, because they had a good idea of what Sonic and friends were like and how they worked. Hell, get the Rise of Lyric writers back, because those guys did so well with Jak and Daxter on PS2 and Rise of Lyric, as bad as the latter was.
