So, Sonic Forces is going to have a character creator, for the first time in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. Obviously, there are lots of hot takes on this reveal, so I thought I'd throw in my two cents on the topic.

Are player creation tools a good idea? Can character creators be used to revive interest in a series? And will the potential of a character creator in Sonic Forces be fully used?
