And Japan Studio was closed.I've no problem with PSN account on PC, but FFS, Sony, was it worth it? You're fuckin' stupid. Modern Sony outside of Japan is shit.
You OK Timdog?They actually bent the knee… seems like PlayStation is trying way too hard to please the pc crowds while at the same time neglecting their core audience.
Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

Um, what? yes it would have. I knew that people would struggle with Matt Piscattela's bullshit PC tweets but not to this degree.If it wasn't for the PC community, the game wouldn't even be in the top 20 most played games on PSN.
again. projection, I'm not interested in degenerates activity. Stop thinking everyone is the samethe hub is free, you can also pay people on OF. It's there for you if you're deprived.
Minor changes are not censorship, Stellar Blade is a bad example of the fight you think you're fighting.
Is there a big enough outcry?Let's see what Xbox does about sea of thieves now ..

The fandom in this industry are so cult mentality deep, you have no idea.Good. Can't believe there were corpo bootlickers defending Sony to the end.

It's not even 3 months yet. No there isn't a big enough outcry. If there wasn't one for Minecraft shutting people out of their game requiring an account there definitely wasn't for SoT. The reason is the difference in motivation behind it, nothing else.Is there a big enough outcry?
Regardless the issue was never about putting the psn account linking, was for putting the account linking AFTER the game was avialable for 6 months.

What was Helldiver 2 like issue with Sea of Thieves?
You're posing some incorrect stuff on the forum and me correcting it is "defending Sony"? I mean it's clear you've misunderstood Matts comment:We get it, you're in love with Sony. You haven't stopped defending them since this whole thing happened.
I don't think you've gone 1 page without posting a comment trying to defend them.
YoursWith PC, Helldivers II is already the 7th highest grossing Sony published game in history. Without PC it wouldn't currently rank among the top 20
If it wasn't for the PC community, the game wouldn't even be in the top 20 most played games on PSN.
1) By making PSN officially supported worldwide
2) By offering people something of actual value in exchange for creating the account and linking it, while keeping it optional
Thats the beauty of it, you have been bending over for other companies for decades, and now all this fake outrage lol. In the end (like in the beginning) it doesn't really matter, it's an account creation just like hundreds of others you have been registering to play games.Who are you to say what is a legitimate concern for PC gamers?. Just because you're used to accepting every dodgy thing thrown at you, it doesnt mean PC gamers are just going to bend over too.
He mentioned the community before Sony. Honestly, he’s been very effective, active and transparent from the beginning of this debacle.
Personally I think Rockstar is going to be a different monster from what we've had previous.Roll over and create an account for the game.
I wonder what the repercussions of this will be long term. Like what does this mean for future PlayStation releases? And what about the rumored launcher etc. will be interesting to see how this plays out.
I wish people had this kind of energy about all the different game launchers on PC (that also require accounts).
The main issue was that they took money from many dozens of nations, and then was about to block access to them with this change. Sony's major problem is that their PSN accessible nations list is far smaller than even Nintendo's.I wish people had this kind of energy about all the different game launchers on PC (that also require accounts).

Sony Bend?Money talks. And you PC gamers put up a good fight to make Sony bend. Even Gabe was on your side offering refunds and delisting the game in unsupported PSN countries.
So you can why Sony balked. No dou bt they had tons of refunds over the weekend which Sony had to eat. With this fiasco over, all those delisted countries will have H2 back up soon.

People are okay with not being able to buy something. But if you took their money and then retroactively try to take the product back after, people would get mad.
Steam players from Day 1 have done nothing but bitch about playstation and their pc ports. There's no trust there to begin with.Sony is just only expanding into PC, it makes sense why they would back down. What I'm more curious about is who green lit this idea in the first place. The trust that they've just lost, yikes.
Steam had to delist the game from multiple countries in advance to protect themselves from lawsuits. Sony just didn't understand the ramifications.I don't think that was the main issue. I think it became the main issue when it started to look like Sony was going to have to back down... but it all started with PC players being pissed off they had to sign up to a PSN account to play a PC game they'd been playing quite happily for months.
Hopefully it's a lesson for everyone involved including the players.I don't think that was the main issue.

Inevitable.
Nice to see these greedy fuckers cave.
Wrong, cant beg for trophy support now, and annoyingly just means more datamining,more cheating,and less options for reporting/banning players. PC Players who refuse to play with PS5 players should be banned outright tbh, its not exactly in the spirit of the game to immediately kick players just because of elitism rather than a genuine reason.PCMR won the fight. Sony has little power against the PC community. let that sink in
Next time it will be very clear from the beginning that linking the account is required, so people will buy the game fully aware of what they are getting into.I wonder what the repercussions of this will be long term. Like what does this mean for future PlayStation releases? And what about the rumored launcher etc. will be interesting to see how this plays out.
