The continuity is a mess and there are too many characters that have just disappeared I just hope Angel Island won't be removed because people here and there tend to forget about them. Just because we hardly see Angel Island I hope that won't be cut out.

Plus I have hope to see such characters as Nack, Bark, Bean and Mighty and Ray again in the future. I mean, Archie comics Super Genesis Wave caused a reboot and those characters were not removed.

A "flashpoint" reboot is one thing, removing Super Tails and Super Knuckles from canon is another but butchering a lot of established lore I'm against.

I'm hoping Sonic '17 will be about Sonic restoring his timeline to exactly how it was, with all his past games just as relevent.
