I’m a PS5 player, so I can’t make an impact, but if you did write a negative review (thank you, you made this happen ❤️) please consider taking the time to change it! This was clearly not AH decision and the game deserves an accurate review, it’s easily one of the best games I’ve ever played and definitely the best game as a service!
Edit: woke up to new comments, this post reminded… Lemmy is just the same as Reddit.
Edit2: Christ I need to turn off Lemmy notifications, I’ve left this community and this was a stark reminder for me… don’t engage with a specific game community, just enjoy the fucking game!
Abusive relationship much?
Fuck that shit, leave your thumb down, they didn’t deserve any kindness from you from the moment they thought it was a good idea to require a PSN account.
“It was not AH decision” they signed the contract with Sony didn’t they? Hell, just take the time to actually read the announcement and it’s clear that Sony is just trying to find ways to do the same thing but in a way we won’t care, they don’t deserve any sympathy.
Maybe you have a problem with the publisher-developer relationship in general or even problems with the profit motive but somehow I think you’re not coming at it from those perspectives.
I wonder if you think the game would have been made if AH didn’t “sign a contract with Sony.” Like it or not, publishers financially support developers and influence their creations to maximize their return on investment.
I’m with you if you wanna take down capitalism, but selectively being mad at one set of creatives for working within the system seems like a pretty immature take.
Plenty of games available on the PS aren’t published by Sony and don’t require a PSN account.
Trees actually get most of their biomass through carbon capture from the air. Your turn for another unrelated fact
I’m saying they didn’t have to deal with Sony in the first place, it’s 100% related to the discussion.
I worked on a feature once at my boss’ behest that users didn’t like very much, but I had a time machine so I could go back to before I accepted my job so that I could undo the permanent stain on my reputation that my boss’ decision left upon my career. You never even heard about it since I used time travel, but I think I can say you would have been satisfied by my actions.
It was just as annoying as it sounds to lose like 10 years at this job but I know it was the only way to make some people happy so it was worth it for me.
If my oversharing is making you uncomfortable I can go back to before the internet was invented
