It's a sad day when that is a 100% true. You give Sonic to a small group of indie devs and they somehow come up with an infinitely better title than anything Sonic Team can make nowadays, despite Sonic Team having the larger budget and more time. Mania and Forces are even around the same length.
Maybe one day Nintendo will go full Mania and hire some indie devs to make a 2D sprite-based Mario. People told me that it'll never happen, but then Cadence of Hyrule was a thing and apparently pretty good too. The future of fan games is pretty promising.
