I'm starting to wonder if they'll focus on the Sonic Boom series and make Sonic Mania or Project 2017 (which I was unaware of until recently) the last one in the main series.

If they do make a final game in the main series, I don't think they'd kill Sonic. Eggman maybe, only if they were sure it would be the final, but not Sonic. (well, they did already once, but he got revived and those events were erased)
