Sonic is strong, but nothing could have ever prepared him for his most fearsome opponent yet: 2010s YouTube. The 2010s was truly the most miserable time to be a fan of Sonic. Big YouTubers retroactively labeling Sonic's entire back catalog as "bad." For most people during this time, if you even liked Sonic, it was ironic at best. So how did it get to that point and what role could something like YouTube even have played in this major shift in perspective?
