If I had to choose one, I'd scrap Omochao. He's the worst guide ever and doesn't help you at all! His voice is annoying, the informations he gives to you are point- and useless because you already know them even if you never played a Sonic game before and the loading-screens serve something better. None of the Sonic-Fans out there like him/it but SEGA keeps putting him into the games. Why, SEGA? '''WHY??? '''

So, what's your opinion?

Your claim that the information Omochao gives the players, even the ones that (these are your words, bear that in mind) "never played a Sonic game before", is useless and already privy to said players is, with all due respect, preposterous. There are plenty of things I, personally, wouldn't have known about Sonic Heroes if Omochao (our Exposition Fairy) hadn't mentioned them, such as menu and gameplay features I didn't notice/understand at first -- unless you're willing to present evidence to the contrary. Don't try speaking for people on such a large scale, otherwise it'll make you look arrogant, if not also ignorant.

At any rate, I will concede that Omochao can at times be a bit grating because of it's no-indoor-voice, especially if it goes on for a while, but then again that is my personal opinion.

Also, "Why, Sega? WHY???" should become a meme if it hasn't already, considering how often such a response it uttered around the Internet.
