Time travel shenanigans, just complicated.

It's why while seeing Classic Sonic in Sonic '17 was awesome, a part of me still had my doubts on seeing him again due to how complicated the side stories of Sonic '06 were which were also about time travel.

I don't want Sonic '17 to be a convoluted mess of time travel shenanigans like Sonic '06 was. Which is why I coined the terms "Sonic Timeline" for the game series canon and "Eggman Timeline" if Sonic '17 trailer (and Sonic Mania) takes place in an alternate reality caused by Eggman changing the past.

I know it's just a guess what the story of Sonic '17 will be about and "Sonic Timeline" and "Eggman Timeline" theory is a bit confusing, but it is no where near as confusing a sSonic '06s timeline shenanigans.
