Nooooo... Don't say it.
That's one of forbidden questions.
Other forbiden question is "Could it get worse than this?"
Why? Because the answer is usually YES.

Knuckles was overshadowed by Shadow, heh.

Knuckles don't chuckle!

All reviews I read always say they are good.

Even if Britain has IHOP, I doubt there would be on the coast railways access.

Imagine ... A guy who could manipulates dark matter and black holes was defeated by ... a boy whose weapon is his long strecthy arms.
Kinda funny but many Japanese anime were kinda like that. Teenager vs a godlike creature.

I wouldn't be surprise if that was, or will be a One-Piece story arc at some point.

It's more suitable or not than more challenging or not.
And talking about keyboard, back then before moving to Windows PC, I played all PC games using keyboard, including these :

Most of those PC games need at least 5 buttons unless the character couldn't do action (attack, jump, etc) which are rare.
Sonic Dash / Sonic Forces Mobile will have less buttons needed than these 30+ years old games if they went to PC.
Moving only need 2 buttons : left and right. Plus jump and slide.

But why though when controller is more comfortable?

Well, in the original Ristar game, Kasier Greedy would use what I presume are "mini black holes" in battle. And when he is defeated, his fortress seems to implode in on itself. So my guess is Kaiser Greedy manipulates dark matter and black holes.

Imagine ... A guy who could manipulates dark matter and black holes was defeated by ... a boy whose weapon is his long strecthy arms.
