Waring this is a less actual facts, more stupid. Just pass this up unless you wanna hear my 2:00 A.M. brain go
Okay so here's the point of this:
Sonic Adventure Stories Vs. The Pontac/Graff Sonic Stores:
Sonic adventure titles had good story telling properties, while not the most polish well put together, they still actually told you something. They let you accomplish things as the player. Yes they story. When looking into all the foggy spots, people begin trying to pick it apart and those who are against it, use as much of its shortcomings to try and make sure it's received as bad. Even though it has lots of good in it. (Insert awesome, metaphor, analogy, or thing here.)
Sonic's New Stories have a good sense of being put together well. Like, no plotholes, solid plot to advance the characters through stages. But. It's not all that well told. Lost World fails simply because of it's unnatural character development and over-explaining jokes, but not explaining actual plot enough (Lost World). But! In cases they also over-explain both jokes and plots(Colors).
Now that's just story. In both the character interactions are great at some points and just lack at others.
