@lina @mushroom_soup Shadow the Hedgehog was one of my favorite games as a kid and it wasn't until I got older that I learned people didn't like it. As an adult I can rationalize that yeah, it's not a great example of game design/level degin/etc.; but the audience for that game wasn't adults in their thirties with IKEA bookshelves behind them, it was hyperactive 11 year old boys who want to see a cartoon hedgehog say soft-core curse words and shoot things with a GUN.
I was one of those in 2005, and I am not sorry for that.
