I was also waiting for a sale, but won't bother now.
You are in one of those 177 countries arent you?
No. I fundamentally disagree with the idea of changing the TOS after sale. That’s some grade A bullshit, and if we had decent consumer protection laws doing that would be illegal without an opportunity for a full refund. It blows my mind how many people seem to be okay with this in general. It’s not the Sony account that’s the issue for me, it’s Sony changing the terms when it clearly was not a requirement at release. Sony isn’t the only one guilty of this, but they are the most recent example.
It was always a requirement. But was temporarily paused due to technical reasons.
Now they are starting to enforce what always was a requirement.
The real fuckup is selling the game in countries where PSN is unavailable.
So no. Hate it as much as you want. But they didn't suddenly change the condition. The condition was always there.
It was optional. Sony's FAQ also changed on May 3.
Do I have to sign in to PSN to play a PlayStation game on PC?
Before May 3 "Signing in to PSN is optional when playing a PlayStation game on PC."
After May 3 "Some PlayStation games may require you to sign in and link an account for PSN."
Sorry for the Reddit link but there's a lot more discussion happening there:
Doesn't seem targeted at you, they're making a good point
I didn't feel targeted or offended. It was indeed a joke at the possibility of getting a moral freeride because OP was forced to, due to their country being delisted
It was really great, but the constant "balance changes" to remove fun and increase stress really outline to us why military fuckin' loves the game.
They need their ptsd stoked more than they need a good video game.
The balance changes are fine. There's a lot to legitimately criticize here, why bring that up? Playing the game in its own right is amazing fun, in fact, the game being so good is why all of these surrounding problems hurt that much more.
I was going to get this game. Now I'm not.
Indeed
