I have an honest question. I never cared or got into Sonic games or television shows. I couldn't care less about the characters other then I know they are SEGA's big money maker.
But my question is this. Why is there so much Sonic content that is absolutely cringe worthy? Why is a something as old as Sonic still have such a vocal fan-base? Where is all this backstory coming from for a very simplistic character? what makes these characters so attractive to people and how many OC's can be made up for this show? Why is this STILL so popular?
I truly don't know as I never hear anyone talk about the show or games anymore. I thought it was irrelevant in today's society, yet I keep seeing cringe-worthy material made for Sonic by fans. Please... educate me.

Thanks in advance.

Stuff like this... THIS is what I am talking about. Is it trolls purposely making stuff like this?

I honestly don't know. I've wondered the same thing. My guess is the fanbase is youngest? So they make stuff that makes our older... more mature minds roll their eyes.

Hmmm, I am surprised no one else has added. I am genuinely curious. Thanks for your answer, Rainy.

I don't understand why Sonic produces so much cringe material. More then all the others probably... it's been around longer and has had more time to produce such content. I am just amazed there is still a fandom for it.
