But you can upgrade from original version for 20 USD and get the extra content of DC version. What's the issue?

Can you? This thread may be inspired by Ghost of Tsushima, but it's talking about the practice generally. Dragon Quest 11 definitely didn't have an upgrade option, if you wanted the new stuff you had to pay full price for a 2nd time.

I wouldn't have a problem with it if you could upgrade for a small fee, but there are plenty of examples where that wasn't the case.

TBF on DQXI. The game was rebuilt and essentially remade for Switch Hardware on a different version of UE4. Switch did not support the older version of UE4. The new content was incompatible with the older versions. Rather than scaled down like many UE ports. The S version of the game was built for Switch.
