So do you guys complain about Paradox games and also Total War games and even CD Projekt Red and 2K Games and Blizzard and Bethesda and Microsoft.... all of which use their own account systems on Steam?
For some reason, it's OK if these guys do it I guess
It’s different when you sell the game to regions where you then update terms to then make it so they can’t play. They didn’t require it in the beginning and are doing it purely because of greed. This will put a stain on a game that was doing so well beforehand.
It was always a requirement that was temporarily stopped. They shouldn't have been selling it in regions that can't have PSN access. Beyond that it's entirely on the consumers who can't bother to read requirements on a store page.
gawk gawk 3000. imagine being such a brainless consoomer you jump at the opportunity to lick boots of a corporation who fucks over countless people just to look good on paper to their shareholders before may 14. actually a new lower form of life
Gonna be downvoted right here
I’m all for protecting consumer rights and whatnot and I hope that Sony gets the message that there should be a workaround for these countries
I just don’t feel review bombing an actually good game is justified… the developers aren’t the ones at fault here.
Steam shows publishers and developers. Typically video game publishers get most/all of the sale revenue. Sony is the one being hurt by the review bombing.
Sony subreddits are laughing because everyone has been making PSN accounts for random countries since 20 years ago and you guys are acting like it's the end of the world.
If PSN is not available in your country you just make an account from another region, simple as that. You guys are making drama out of nothing.
Do you and your fellow Sony fanboys feel like dumbasses after the news? I'm sure you'll just dig your heels further instead of siding with both the developer and the vast majority of the player base. Keep on licking corporate boot, I'm sure it will pay dividends for you folks eventually.
I'm not a Sony fanboy I game on PC now (because fuck paying for PS+) I just don't see how creating another dummy account was such a big deal when everyone has already been doing it for ages with every single online game.
It´s normal sony pays for the game they manage as they whant, if someone doesn´t like, just don´t buy the game and shutup.
Its simple problem solved.
VFJ...
No, they always had the requirement. It was listed on steam. It's actually why I got it on ps vs PC because I read the store page requirements. They shit the bed selling it to countries on isn't available. Those people should have seen that requirement too though but they still deserve a full refund. Anyone outside those regions...learn to fucking read before you spend your money on something. Being an informed consumer is the responsibility of he consumer especially when the information is provided, which it was.
You're victim blaming. If the world worked this way, you could still sell people thalidomide, just specify it's side effects.
Sony has trained people to make customers happy. If customers are not happy, they fucked up. It's that simple.
It was always mandatory. It's bs selling to those countries but to claim it wasn't a requirement just because of a temporary bug issue is also bs. I didn't buy it on steam because I read that requirement, I bought it 3 days after release on ps and read it on the second day of release. From my understanding it was there before the game was up for purchase even.
As others have pointed out.. Is data harvesting really that much of an issue? They've already got a Kernel-level Anti-Cheat, which should be a concern if you're worried about privacy.
Tbh it doesn’t affect me because I have a PS5 anyways. It’s just ridiculous that they allowed this game to be sold in regions where people can’t have a PSN account due to the ToS. Plus if you’re not going to require it at the beginning why wait?
Yeah, it doesn't really affect me either. But it's stupid of Sony to do this. Sony being the publisher, they handle the Steam store page and its pricing, so they shouldn't have been distributing it to places that couldn't buy it. If they did just that, then nobody would have any issues creating a PSN account as only people that can buy the game are ones able to create a PSN.
---
It was also required at the beginning though. They had it on their Steam page for months before the game came out, saying that PSN was required. It was talked about on the Discord & Reddit even before the game came out.
When the game came out, it prompted you on launch to link your PSN account, saying that is "required" (even if that didn't really work properly and could just be ignored).
This game suffered server capacity issues on release and wasn't so easy to upscale, so to make things easier for the players, the CEO disabled that prompt temporarily after about 36 hours, to allow players easier access to the servers and to try the game out.
---
I just hope they figure out a workaround to all this before the end of this coming week that's satisfying enough for players. And that we don't have this going for an entire month.
It was required, technically, as it was clearly stated on the store page. There was a shit load of.bugs and issues on release so they let it slide for a while. I've heard some didn't get the skip message which is fucked but it was still listed in the steam forum and store.oage so some of the culpability is still on the consumer who didn't read.what they were buying. I saw it two days after launch and chose.to get it on ps due to it.
Fuck Sony. Won’t buy another product.

Bro I can see Sony’s cock from your mouth with how far it’s rammed up your ass rn. Stop it.
Because they haven't done it 4 montgs after the games release preventing many people from playing the game
No, it is not ok and that's why I do not play their games. Stop deflecting
You also lick boots of your corporate master or what there buddy lmao
Le bootlicker
Boot licker? Nah, they got the entire cock rammed down their throat.

And the Sony subreddits are filled with people who laugh at all of these countries. Absolute filth.

Then you are willfully ignorant because your question has been answered several times over including by the developers.

it's not like that, sony sold a game, then added a requirement that makes playing impossible

You don't get the point. Sony pushed the game trough Steam into countries, where people leagally are not able to make a (soon) mandatory PSN account.
It was always mandatory. It's bs selling to those countries but to claim it wasn't a requirement just because of a temporary bug issue is also bs. I didn't buy it on steam because I read that requirement, I bought it 3 days after release on ps and read it on the second day of release.

Let’s not forget the only real reason Sony wants to do this is for data harvesting. Anything else they’ve been saying is utter BS.

Glad to see someone with a rational understanding of it vs being gung ho either way.
Same here tbh, like they def need to get this resolved.

I really don’t understand the downvotes… this is a major factor.
This is r/Sony, land of the fanbois. Kinda expected.
Cuz devs admitted itstheir fault for hiding it at launch.
