Quite the opposite, they hate side characters. We haven't had a game with playable side characters since like 2008. Sonic and the Black Knight had some I think. Before that it was Sonic 06 which had 3 well functioning ones, and then 6 intentionally weak side characters that were barely useable, 2 of which have a high rate of suicides (Knuckles and Blaze) It's unfortunate but that this is what killed the series for me, no side characters and too much 2D.
