User blog:Stella the skunk/Silver's Speed: Why do people care?

So, I was recently reading the article about Silver and I came down to the reception of the character. It said that crictal reception was negative partially because Silver possess no super speed like other characters such as Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, and Shadow.It then said that fan reception was much more positive.

Now, we all know that speed Is a major part in Sonic games. But what I am really trying to ask here is Why do people care about Silver's speed? I also read the Sonic advance 2 page, and Knuckles is the slowest character in the game. However, the critics didn't criticize it, unlike Silver's speed......

Yes, yes, I know it is the critic's opinion, but IMO, why is it that the people care about Silver's slow speed so much then power type characters like Vector and Eggman (if I am wrong about the next statement, please tell me.) who are sometimes slower? Stella the skunk 14:29, June 10, 2012 (UTC)
