No no no.......Sonic and Knuckles was just Sonic 3, the other half of the cartridge that they sold you a second time, somehow.
It's not though? Sonic & Knuckles has unique stages and story vs. Sonic 3. Unless you mean they were designed as one game and split at the end before release; that I don't know.
I have had fun with ChatGPT, but in terms of integrating it into my workflow: no. It just gives me too much garbage on a regular basis for me not to have to check and recheck anything it produces, so it's more efficient to do it myself.
And as entertainment, it's more expensive than e.g. a game, over time.

There was a 2010 2D platformer released as Sonic 4 which was meant to be the spiritual successor.
I'd say the real spiritual successor on Genesis/Megadrive was Sonic & Knuckles, which came out after Sonic 3 and for all intents and purposes may as well have been called Sonic 4. But they had to push the Knuckles aspect because the cartridge had a passthrough that would accept another Genesis cartridge and allow you to play e.g. Sonic 2 with the Knuckles sprite, iirc.

The absolute state of AAA gaming is ridiculous.
Take your upvote and leave.
I think the JD Vance "I'm a never Trumper" clip has kind of killed the title, no?
What I do believe is that the non voting public is not ideologically aligned. Their lack of participation signals nothing to the actors within that system.
Your vote outside of the two-party system is effectively the same as a non-vote. That is the disconnect.
No one is looking at third party votes and seeing anything of substance. It will always look like a misunderstanding of the system.
The reductionism is the belief that vote == vote. It does not, and that means there is an extra step between vote and change. If you want change, which you should, you should also understand the limits of the system in place. To not do so is to allow it to continue on its path.
Edit: purely true only for the US system. Most voting systems have moved beyond this limitation. But we cannot ignore the limitation for ideology.
This is, for better or worse, a reductionist view.
Ignore everything you see about polling. Polls don't win elections, but they can sway elections.
Vote. Vote. Vote.
