168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Persona 5: The Phantom X has been fairly popular ever since its global release last month, delighting fans of the series with what is essentially a brand-new Persona game, and spawning inc🅘redible new memes courtesy of the Subway Slammer. It was ꦆall going pretty 🎃well, though the game's latest update has now enraged global players.

One of the biggest points of anger is the updated release schedule, as it was recently ♋announced that updates to the global version of Persona 5: The Phantom X would start coming at a faster rate in an attempt to catch up to the Chinese release schedule. That sounds pretty great on the surface, but it's not amazing when you find out that resources will 🀅not be ramped up alongside those updates.

That means that players won't be able to save up resources at a quick enough pace to match the release schedule, an♊d to make matters even worse, it seems like Sega is being a lot stingier with rewards on the global side. One recent example that has angered fans is the reward differences after maintenance, as it was quickly revealed that global players got only 100 Meta-Gems, while the players on the game's Chinese servers got 300.

On top of that, players in Asian countries also received access to codes that gave them another 300 Meta-Gems, meaning these regions got 600 compared to only 100 on global servers. It's this kind of stuff - along with🅘 disappointment over the lack of guaranteed banners and characters being added to the normal banner - that has led to claims of "favoritism" towards the game's Asian servers.

Y🌸ou can already see the impact that it's having too, dropped from Mostly Positive to Mixed earlier today. Check the recent negative reviews, and you'll see that most of them mention the game's stingy rewards system compared to China's, and that global players are being "treated like trash".

You even have people claiming that Sega is speedrunning the game towards EOS (end of service), with the title being compared to Final Fantasy: Brave Exvius, which had its global servers shut down last October while its Japanese servers are still up. Hopeful♉ly, Sega will actually address the complaints with Persona 5: The Phantom X so it can avoid a similar fate.
