Being a Sonic fan is genuinely so tough. For every step forward SEGA takes, they take a step backwards. For every hype trailer we get, we get some disappointing news. I just wanna love Sonic man, why do video games gotta have drama Also my heart goes out to the modders and speedrunners who are getting punched in the gut with this

[@internetguy08]

I mean it's an unfortunate downside sure, but it's not surprising or really a step back. It's really just bad business for them if they leave the cheaper older version out there. And they technically aren't obligated to have to preserve fan content. For as many issues as they have, their attitude towards fan made content has been pretty solid.

[@TheAbsol7448]

​@@internetguy08Just include it with the new version then, so people have to buy the new version to access it. It's not that hard. Bandai Namco should've done that with Dark Souls and Gearbox should've done that with Duke Nukem 3D.

[@KyndlingStoneCB]

A few things, 1) yeah. It’s unfortunately a thing that they feel like they have to do. It’s a money thing and it’s not out of malice towards Sonic fans, it’s just how it is. The whole point of the gens remaster is to get new players to play the brand new version. 2) The whole thing with the denovo (I don’t care enough to spell it right LOL) lock off thing is for legal reasons. I think that games are required to use it due to piracy shit. Yeah, it’s bad for modders but, I think that talented Sonic modders can find a way to let the mod manager use mods from the OG version. The base portion is built off of the same engine. 3) I’ve been studying the gameplay for both Green Hill & Space Colony Ark for the past month n’ a half now and noticed that Green Hill actually looks like its textures have been updated. It looks prettier actually. Along with that the dropdash was added and the website did mention the fact that the game will include remastered cutscenes (maybe even reanimated??? Hopefully??? Probably not but It’s something that would be nice!!!) and I think that Roger has actually re-recorded lines for the game. His voice sounds different in footage so, we’ll have to see. But you’re wrong. While small changes, this is indeed a remaster. Not a port.

[@UltraZelda64]

It wouldn't surprise me. Sega delisted most older ways to play the classic Sonic games with the arrival of Sonic Origins so people couldn't instead just choose to spend, say, five bucks on Sonic 3 & Knuckles. They want your full 40 bucks. It's a scummy move, but it's exactly the kind of thing you can expect from Sega. Looking at their history, you could literally predict this happening. The only Xbox 360 games that were supposed to be delisted were those that were only playable on that console. Sonic Generations was made backward compatible with Xbox One and even received an FPS Boost for Xbox Series, so the closure of the store *shouldn't* affect its availability on Xbox consoles. But here we go... this is Sega we're talking about.

[@Artista_Frustrado]

Sonic 3&K was delisted long before Origins, & is the same reason as to why they replaced the Music Tracks. SEGA released the games without renewing the copyright & the Rights owners sued for big money

[@GoldenGrenadier]

It isn't just Sega. Rockstar delisted the original 3D trilogy when they replaced them with that absolute joke of a remake.

[@DGuy32]

Given they did this with the classic games, I'm not surprised SEGA's doing this again with Generations.

People have had 13 years to buy the original version. Physical copies still exist, there are still thousands of unused keys, and there's the high seas for the 16 people who still haven't bought the original on Steam (or refuse to do so until it gets delisted) This isn't really an issue in my eyes. Sega is offering a new version to replace the old one. It's not like delisting Mario 3D All-Stars and offering no replacement or anything like that.

[@SonicPokemonMan]

Does that mean I can still play it on steam This is coming from the guy who says this, Mega Man 11 and Spark 3 are his most valued steam games

[@nolan414_]

Speedrunner approach here; This absolutely sucks. This reminds me a lot about how modern games would patch out glitches so you can't abuse it for speedrunning. I get that this is different but it still falls under the same umbrella as; Forcing us to use an updated version when some of would still like to play the old. I feel REALLY sorry for the modding community on this one. Whilst I personally never cared "too much" for generations, this is still a massive stab in the heart to anyone who is a diehard fan of the mods of SG.

[@shahgyy]

Buy it while you still can. Hopefully sega leaves the steam version alone

[@skld-xm]

Do you think SEGA actually cares about your bum community

[@SplotchTheCatThing]

Yeah I figured this was gonna happen. Hopefully, we can generate enough backlash after the fact that they change their minds. Similar thing happened to Doom 3 a number of years ago where its "BFG Edition" completely supplanted the original; but in that case the fans ended up convincing the publisher to bring the original back and Bethesda ultimately made it part of the same package. I think that would be the smarter thing for SEGA to do with Sonic Generations if they can be convinced to reverse course.

But they KNOW that. Why do you think Bowser's Fury is only with the Switch version of SM3DW and not a standalone game? Because no one would buy the Switch version, since the differences between the Switch and Wii U vers. of the game aren't enough to justify buying the new version if you already own the previous one. And SM3DW has much more differences from it's old version compared to S×SGens (well except if you compare it to the 3DS version of Generations lol)

[@secoTheSonicFan]

I feel like Sonic KZbinrs are on some infinite loop on not understanding Sega's *business* style. Yes, Sega is rereleasing Sonic Generations so they want to make sure everyone buys just that Shadow Generations. They do this everytime. Like with Sonic Origins or Sonic 3 & Knuckles steam. No, Sega isn't a "friendly" and "ethical" business of good people. Not during the 90s, not in 2024. And yes, if Sonic Adventure gets some new remake/remaster Sega will delist everything. And before you accuse me of defending Sega, I'm not. I don't think Sega is good at making games. I'm merely pointing out the Sonic cycle or loop Sonic KZbinrs seem to be in every other year.

[@satelliteprime]

To be fair, the mods will definitely stick around. For one thing, the original version on Steam would still work, it just wouldn't be purchasable anymore. Players who already own it would be fine, mods and all. For the newbies with the new game, HedgeModManager will undoubtedly be updated for SxSG, and since the underlying Generations portion of the game is the same, that probably won't require a huge amount of reworking, or at the very least it won't need to be done from scratch (not that such a workload has ever stopped the madmen of the Sonic modding community before). Denuvo probably won't be a major obstacle because Frontiers and I'm pretty sure even Forces have that bundled in too, and HMM still functions seamlessly within those games, so the modding community has clearly already found their way around it.

[@LumiosNoctis]

tbf there's also one valid argument as in, they want to avoid people *accidentally* buying the wrong game. They are doing tons of marketing for the game but we can expect that if there are two versions of the same game on steam and stuff, some consumers, especially families like parents for their kids etc might be confused and buy the wrong one. Sega might want to avoid the risk of confusion. There could be other ways to go about it of course, such as adding warnings that this isn't the new game etc. But i think to them removing them is the easiest way.

I never saw them as friends since they are a corporation but this is ridiculous. I'm always saying that they did this package incase the shadow stuff wouldn't sell on its own since everyone likes generations. Its not even an anniversary, they could've remastered unleashed or Heroes instead. I hated Sega after they released a bad game called "Sonic Frontiers" and I also hate them for this.

I honestly thought they would've learned from last time, like, for the f*cking love of God you don't need to delist the games SEGA, that just causes more backlash.

[@Lamborghini-z9z]

I knew this would happened, its starting to become a trend with Sega to delist the original version when a remaster is announced, like Sega, WHY

[@ThibautMahringer]

I’m glad I already have Sonic Generations 360 digitally on my Series X. If you also have a Series X, you should be able to get a cheap physical copy to play it !

[@ratsochicknlove]

I'm glad I bought Sonic Generations on Xbox 360 store earlier this year before Shadow Generations was announced

[@MaoRatto]

For the steam version, they should just bundle original Generations with Shadow X Generations....

[@NamelessCrusad3r]

Couldn’t be more glad that I own generations on steam rn

Sega has always been shooting themselves in the foot after 2011. This is just another example of them fumbling. All the creations from the Modders will go to waste unless people pirate the game now. Idc if this is Sega's business model. This is scummy asf. Even Nintendo never did this. Overwatch 2 had a greedy/ predatory business model and people hated it. Why does sonic get the pass for something scummy like this? The fans glaze him to the extreme. Now just imagine how bad the situation might get if they release the SxS Generations in the same condition that Colours Ultimate released in. With no alternative. How funny that would be.

If Generations gets dlisted it will never be the same (without mods)

[@ThaBababoey]

Pour one out for the brothers who won't ever experience the golden age of sonic generations modding

[@MissUmbra]

To be brutally honest, I saw this coming 10 miles away. As soon as SXSH Gens was announced, I KNEW Sega would delist OG Generations considering they did the same thing with the original Steam release of the Classic Sonic games when Origins was coming out. If they do an Unleashed remaster, expect the same thing to happen.

Sonic unleashed: *NERVOUS SWEATING*

[@ChinaCountryball11]

I really hope they won't delist Sonic Generations from Steam😢

[@RefreshingMirage]

Honestly I’ve had a physical Xbox 360 copy of this game since 2011, I bought on Series S since 2021, and had it on Steam since last December, so this doesn’t effect me personally, but this is still an anti-consumer business practice, I’m pissed I missed out on getting 3 & Knuckles on Steam before it got delisted, I can’t imagine how people will feel if they missed their chance to get Gens before it’s delisted

I agree that it looks like Sonic Generations in this Shadow remaster collection is not actually remastered, but something I learned about the term master is essentially like rendering, so you master something that means you're done it's finished, so to remaster it would basically be rendering it again with whatever changes. So in the most literal sense of the word taking the game and now making the changes to make it run on a new platform would probably be considered a remaster, even though we consider it porting. Because I guess the line there is blurry when you get semantical
