Nope. I hope you like ironic shit because you're never getting anything that's completely earnest anymore.

Modern shit like nu-Doom is far more cringe than Shadow's brand of edginess

Nu doom is the epitome of cringe

its a shame because the game itself is pretty fun as far as modern shooters go but the lore and general attitude is unbearably reddit

While i don’t consider Shadow to be even remotely badass, i do miss games with badasses in them.

Vexx was a better platformer, with edge that didnt go full industiral eco terrorism meets Lovecraftian aliens.
I know it's Sonic and story means fuck all, but when the man appeal and hook of gameplay is getting the many endings (many of which are just duplicate neutral endings), you can't help not notice it when it's in your face all the time. Especially with the fucking NPC gaslight sidekick mechanic of everyone not shutting the fuck up and tampering with your moral choices all the time through-out
