>>43354176>I'm just saying that it's better than the alternativeNot really. Lazily re-packaging a game with exclusive minor content updates and re-selling it at full price with no viable upgrade path for base version owners is the pinnacle of bullshit only Game Freak could pull off because the fanbase is braindead and will buy anything.
There's zero justification for it even against DLC, because at least SS' DLC model gives Game Freak no excuse to withhold basic patches and tweaks from base game owners that would otherwise be walled behind a third version. Making base game owners have to re-play the game all over again is also a shitty move. I'm glad this shit is never coming back.
