    Geez after the debacle with their new DRM shit for digital purchases and rolling back their pledge to release to PC, I wonder fucking why people aren’t climbing over themselves to throw money at 'em.

    Not to mention general economics issues plaguing the world right now. Can’t imagine many people have the disposable income to throw at video games to begin with.

      Just so you’re aware the DRM issue was just that they now have an expiry during the return window because they had people buying a game, downloading it, taking their console off the network, refunding on the website, finishing the game in their own time and then reconnecting to the internet when they no longer want it which then locks you out of the game. The licence is perpetual once it’s past the return window. I don’t quite know what a better option in solving this other than the fact they should’ve just been up front with the changes to begin with.

        Just so you know, I absolutely give zero shits about their reasons for doing it.

        Ruining the experience for everyone else because of a negligible minority of people found a clever way to cheat the system (good for them). Sony can get fucked.
