I was concerned Sonic Lost World was the "sign of the times" of how the characters will be. Especially with Boomiverse Eggman being incomputant and frienemies with Sonic. Gee man, you really have an appetite for death, terrorism and destruction. Should I be worried? Mmm mhmm heheheHEHEMWAHAHAHAHA!!! No, why figure that?

It's just I want canon Eggman, the one we know from the games, to be taken as a serious villain. Granted thats kinda difficult given he looks dressed to lead a marching band than an empire, but his acts of terrorism shows he is capable of great feats of evil. And the more of a terrorist he is, the more awesome Sonic is for stopping him. Problem is, "terrorism" is a word spunned by news and media that television boards would rather have children show have least relations to terrorism even if it makes the villains naf. This is why I believe Boom Eggman can't behave more like AoSTH Robotnik because back then villains couldn't get away with blowing up stuff, mass takeover or hostage situations for the sake of cartoon evil. Rather safe and stupid than intriguing yet possibly offensive.

For example, if Sonic Adventure was released somewhen after Septermber '11, I doubt the scene where he launches a missle at Station Square would get pass censorship. But it was that particular scene that was a real jaw-dropped for me. Dr. Eggman dropped the teen-villain gloves and was going to level an entire city just because he was a sore loser and that really was a shock for the story.

I want the Dr. Robotnik we know from the games like that again. I want him to cause that feeling of "oh $#!7" I had when he launched that missle.
