I have Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth’s $110 Ultimate Edition, and it’s making the game less fun

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth Sujimon

You know that thing in games where you finally get acquainted with the controls, make it through the opening level, and then get a billion popups at once about the DLC you’ve unlocked? Those pop ups are how I discovered I was playing Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth‘s $110 Ultimate Edition. I didn’t intend to get it (it came with a code provided by Sega), but I’m glad I did, if only so I can warn you that it manages to make the game worse. It’s bad enough that Infinite Wealth’s new game plus mode is locked behind the $15 extra Deluxe Edition, but the Ultimate Edition is annoying in an entirely different way. 

The Ultimate Edition’s problem is one of gluttony. The bundle of bundles comes with a few harmless cosmetics that feel pretty standard for a big game release—more swimsuits, throwback outfits, extra karaoke songs, that sort of thing. But then, in an attempt to justify the $40 markup, Sega also packed in piles of boosters, upgrade materials, and literal level-up canisters that seriously screw with Infinite Wealth’s natural progression.
