Life in co-op: How Tails taught me the true meaning of teamwork

Bitmob writes "A lot of folks complain about Tails from the classic Sonic the Hedgehog series. They say he’s annoying, gets in the way, and has hardly any AI besides following Sonic. People also hate playing as him because he easily gets left behind and doesn’t add to the overall gameplay experience. I agree with all of these points, except the latter. While Sonic is the lead character, and the games focus solely on what he does, the option of playing as Tails created one of the strongest friendships in my life."

All Tails ever did was get crushed by things and disappear off-screen. His existence must be a lonesome one...

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.

How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.

Wait until release. Watch Gameplay. Exercise patience.

Garethvk3d ago

But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.

Get rid of the suits in the industry and job done!!

They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
