Yesterday, we reported the release date of Sonic: Origins and the content of various versions of the game, and in the previous report, Xiaobian mentioned the slightly exaggerated standard version price and the additional cost of DLC. Fans who have calmed down today have also attacked Sega's pricing behavior, and interested friends will take a look at it.
As the enthusiasm of fans gradually dissipated, more and more fans began to think calmly about the substance of Sonic: Origins and the price of the game. Fans' dissatisfaction with DLC content and the price of the game reached its peak on the reddit forum.
Many fans struggle to understand why Sega believes that upgrading the game's graphics and adding new opening and closing animations to retro games will support the $39.99 standard version price, not to mention the need to purchase DLC for an additional fee to experience everything. Sonic: Origins Standard Edition retails for $39.99 and will offer 100 bonus coins to pre-order players, as well as unpublished mirror mode unlocking privileges and a new mailbox background.
According to the Sonic Origins website, new characters as well as mirror modes under development, and even certain animations and music will be added to the subsequent DLC. Fans expressed their concerns on the forum, and netizens @MShenjosh said: "Sonic: Origins feels like a Japanese fighting game with DLC, and players not only pay for the game itself, but also face a large number of paid DLC characters in the future. (Xiaobian dares to pack tickets, this fan said that the fighting game must be "Dragon Ball Fighter Z", because he is not the only one who suffers from it...) ）
Another user, @XxJuan_776xX, put it more bluntly: "Obviously, sega can't put everything in one version of the game right now." They always want every penny from us. It can be seen that although Sonic is a childhood playmate for many fans, Sega's unintentional reproduction has successfully ignited the anger of fans. And compared to the previous high-quality reset version of "Resident Evil 2", the current game quality of "Sonic: Origins" is obviously difficult to convince the public, if even fans do not buy it, Sega should also reflect on it.
In fact, in the eyes of the editor, fried cold rice is beyond reproach, but being able to fry cold rice is also a kind of "unique strength", which can only be said that Sega you still have long snacks! Sonic: Origins will launch on June 23 on playStation 4 & 5, Xbox One and Series, Nintendo Switch and PC.
