why does including shadow in a game inmediately make it dark and edgy like for fucks sake i thought his brooding period was over why cant they have him act like a normal person from now on why cant he smile and spend time with his friends why is he so afraid to show emotions why does he hide it under his fierce facade i know theres more to shadow than he lets on and he only acts like all he cares about is fighting and winning all the time and it pains me that thats all his character has been reduced to, even in a world without humans he should still be able to find purpose in his life and not be a melodramatic sasuke character like fuck, yea sonic doesnt give much of a fuck about anything but what about shadow why is he always angry all the time why do they write him like this W H Y

>amnesia causing an emotional disconnect with the events of SA2, regressing his mental state to someone with no connections to anyone or anything (his anxiety about whether he was even the real Shadow causing to be even further closed off), leading to him becoming independent by his game's ending, casting off his past permanently and doing things for his own reasons
>06 was erased so he never learned of humanity's hatred for him, and, as a result, never bonded with Rouge, causing him to see her more as an acquaintance rather than a close friend
>Sonic needs a competitive and marketable rival in things that aren't Extreme Gear, so Shadow's (and Knuckles's, to a lesser extent) rivalry with Sonic is emphasized
Take your pick.

not bonding with rouge in 06 doesn't mean he wouldn't bond with her and omega later on and hadn't they already bonded in sonic heroes? as for taking my pick i'd choose none cause i just want his character to evolve, having left his past behind and not brooding or dwelling any longer on it i wish they wrote him like a normal person and have him stop being scared of showing emotion and spending time with friends and making jokes even, i wanna see this hog cheerful for once and spending time with sonic and showing mutual respect and engaging in friendly competition, i think theres more to this character than just edge and im upset that thats all he's been reduced to cause of lazy writing and if the franchise and its direction is a lighthearted one i think they can make shadow work in a story with a lighthearted setting, dragonball fucking does it with vegeta and other characters and that adds variety to the franchise and if the writers arent completely incompetent they can keep a fine balance between lightheartedness and serious tones, personally since the franchise seems hellbent on being lighthearted and avoiding anything even remotely "serious" or "edgy/dark" cause its so damn scared of coming off as "cringe" i wish it would just continue to try and capture the essence of sonic rush, nowadays the games are lighthearted in their story and tone but they are also pretty fucking lame while rush was lighthearted and retained sonic's badassery and didnt try to be a cheap copy of the red plumber and i think if they were to do that they could utilize "darker" characters and blend them in seamlessly without them looking out of place in the current state of the franchise

Shadow (and to a lesser extent the other Team Dark members) has the problem where his backstory and really overall character roots in the Adventure Era. An era that Sega/Sonic Team wants to leave behind outside of fanservice.
Shadow's too popular to outright remove from the series. So they've been trying to remake him so he can fit in the current direction of the franchise. Remaking him into more of a self-contained rival figure with his ties to other humans than Eggman ignored outside of fanservice.
