    I’m not in an affected country, nor did I plan to play multiplayer, but I still removed it from my wishlist and decided to boycott all titles requiring a PSN account. If you want to have some option but annoying account service, fine. I can survive clicking the X on that. But if they push this hard then we know they’ll push this onto all games next.

      Have you looked at the list of affected countries? Are you really that upset that these titles aren’t available (for purchase) in places like Haiti and Afghanistan?

        Have you? Because it also contains countries like Baltics. But that’s not even the point. The point here is that Sony forces restrictions upon users for absolutely no reason or benefit for them, just so that Sony has some numbers to show to their shareholders. But thanks for proving my point about you people. You’re literally the reason why companies like Sony, EA, Ubisoft, etc. can ruin the gaming market without repercussions.

          Honestly… That’s a fairly harsh response to someone with an opinion…

          I kind of feel they don’t deserve that attack… It doesn’t mean they have any plans to buy it.

          I wouldn’t, and I’m actually selling my ps5 and set up my old PC with steam and big picture mode… But, pointing out the disadvantages in a normal way is more effective than attacking people

        yeah fuck people from other countries and let the corporations fuck over people who aren’t me am I right?

        it’s not whining people who fuck the gaming community. it’s the corporations who are making decisions that cause people to whine over them
