Maybe I was blinded DeCool, maybe I just feel that Forces did a better job doing as it intended. I got bored by Generations because of how short it was, there was supposed to be tons of Nostalgia in Gens yet I noticed very little of what made Sonic great was actually in the game.

The purpose of Forces was supposed to be Fan Service wasn't it? So if I liked the way that Forces delivered on what it promised, does that really make me blind? We got an epic in the Sonic Series starring the character you create yourself, which was exactly as promised.

As for what I feel 3D Sonic needs today it's to bring back aspects of the Dreamcast Era, Forces seems to be heading in that direction. Try to imagine an even better custom character system being used in a much larger Chao World with say 10 Gardens, would you not find that appealing? Would you not want a few playstyles that greatly differ from Sonic's again? Excluding Mania it has been a long time since Knuckles was playable.
