No Sliver, but we do get Shadow.

And let me guess, we’re given no explanation about his backstory in this universe.

…*Sigh* Alright then.

Why would we?  He’s not even a playable character.

Sonic’s backstory is more vague than Shadows.  We don’t even know who Sonics parents are.

I mean, Shadow is by far my favorite character and I appreciate his back story more than most I think.  But this game isn’t about him, so the narrative shouldn’t shoehorn his past when it doesn’t impact the plot.

True but if that’s the case, why even put him in the game in the first place?

Shadow has amnesia, a big cliche for a mysterious backstory.
How is sonics worse?
