“I was not expecting that. But I was expecting not to expect something, so it doesn’t count.”

[SuperDuckyPlaysGames]

If they brought back the original genesis games just to add them to the Gens bundle, it would make buying a bundle much more worth it. It would also just make a lot of sense over all

[Mazher]

Guess I won't be sailing the seven seas then....

[SonictheHedgehog-qydf]

I don't know how Sega listens to fans but Nintendo doesn't

[JohnSmith-mkjt]

Honestly, I feel like this is a perfectly fair compromise. While I personally wasn't going to be affected by the delisting (I have Generations on the Series X with a physical copy), I am ardently against companies using games as a service that can be taken away rather than permanent goods.

This compromise lets the modding community and people with the OG Generations keep their work without negatively affecting the sales of Sonic x Shadow Gens.

[Archived-dc]

This is actually a really good move from sega. I love this idea a lot

[theunicyclist]

I know that you really can't assume anything with big corporations, but part of me isn't actually surprised by this.

We know Sega/Sonic Team loves seeing the passion Sonic fans have, hence the reason why so many iconic fan games are even allowed to exist. Sonic Generations has been out for over 10 years, and there are A LOT of mods. Sega probably sees mods the same way they see fan games: projects fueled by passion. They respect the hard work modders have put into the game, and they have no desire to crush their fans. Sure, it will be "harder" to get OG Gens, but it's still available and anyone who ends up getting it can still experience so many legendary mods, hopefully decades after the game originally released.

[KyndlingStoneCB]

Another thing is that if somehow the mod manager can update every current mod to support it for SxSgens, then that would be amazing. Sure it might be hard but some chad could be really cool for that.

[Metal-Josh]

That idea of “giving” the “legacy” version of the game with the new release is an awesome idea. And probably the best.
Now, if only Nintendo listened to fans like Sega does…

[blunelson]

The fact that the mods aren't going to be affected, means that we can still play mods on a definitive edition of sonic generations, while able to play shadow levels in the future.

That gives me a theory, if Sega decided to let mods be fully supported on a upcoming definitive version, that means it's also possible that SEGA allows their fans to make new mods on Shadow Levels, Modded Skins, Modded Bosses, and so on.

Looks like they're is going to be Shadow Unleashed Mod if it's true.

[BaconHairDefaults]

In a way, I’m not too shocked about this. The genesis games’ delisting was a bad apple in a wave of Sega listening to fans ever since the Sonic Movie design incident.

[baxodlade]

Sega actually listening to their fans






Looking at you Nintendo

[vittosphonecollection]

That's really nice for SEGA to confirm us that mods are still compatible!

At this point I wouldn't even be surprised if they lost compatibility and actually tried to make it more mod-compatoble

[AshyMuted]

I'm honestly surprised they brought the mods up directly, I was expecting them to just keep the wording vague, even if we know why they're doing it. To see them actually acknowledge the modding scene is pretty nice.

[DavidDoodleCartoons]

Theoretically old mods should still be compatible with SxS Gens as it’s still the same engine but with some touch ups, as long as the code isn’t altered too much I think most mods will still work with it

[ValenteXD]

I remember buying the OG generations on Steam in 2020's Summer Sale for an amazind 2 BRL that's 40 cent in USD

[jamesdeanrodriguez]

Wait there's a new soundtrack available right now because it says "Lost Impact"

[MKPwdd]

I can't wait for Sonic X Shadow Generations

[deeohayy]

Well that's nice to hear. Its definitely better than them just removing the game out right.

(Also nice choice on Ori and The Blind Forest. It really is a good time.)
