Rules:
This from a company so user-toxic that it created a rootkit. And who sued some kid because he cracked the PS3 (the details of that trial really show how Sony fights its battles).
A shame those working on the actual game are thrown under the bus by Sony through all this and have to eat all that negative feedback. Sony will just walk away but the damage to that brand is substantial, and lasting. I honestly hope Helldiver's stakeholders sue them. Sony can't just brazenly destroy a game's momentum and then just say "oh well, we tried, fine we won't do that you big babies, bye."
Also, how in the actual fuck does a company institute a change worldwide when parts of that world clearly do not have a PS Network. Like I want an explanation for that one thing. That Sony made changes to account linking in parts of the world that do not have the new account we want to link it to. And never had And never will have. My guess is they probably said, "oh well, fuck those guys."
What an absolute clusterfuck.
They were gonna pull helldivers from steam in all countries without PSN, and that's what they did. They didn't care for reimbursements once the game got popular.
They just didn't expect it to be very popular, which is probably why AH agreed to it in the first place
I truly hate companies get away with this kind of shit…
I still think they absolutely forgot that PSN is not available in tons of countries. Bunch of fucking amateurs where this kind of stuff is set up by some underpaid intern.
When they announced the PSN requirement, it took like what, a day to actually pull the game from those countries on Steam? They absolutely forgot and when people started complaining, they were like "Oh shit, we kinda forgot this is a feature".
You think Sony forgot PSN isnt available in all countries?
They 100% knew, and didnt expect there would be enough people in those regions to cause a fuss.
