The end of this month's SRCW event calendar makes these datamined decals wayyy more interesting...
But like even without these, I think Classic Sonic + IDW Round 2 is a pretty realistic expectation for an anniversary. We'll just have to wait and see what they have planned.
Hoping DRE isn't gutted too hard in the next patch, not because it's "broken", but bc active DRE just makes movement in this game so much more fun than it's ever been.
I could get curbstomped by DRE top players all day and still have fun bc max stat movement just FEELS great, win or loss.

The discussion on Rayman reminded me of how the SMB series was also held hostage in the late 2010s. The future of this series hinged on the success of a hastily-made, inferior remake of an already divisive game, one of the most contentious in the series.
It worked out at least! ...I guess!
