PSN account required for Ghost of Tushima Legends on PC (only mp). |UP| on Steam will be unavailable in countries without PSN.

[ethomaz]

So wait. Do people from removed countries review bomb all Steam games or do they rally against other Steam players for getting their countries banned with their outrage?

People from supported countries (read US and main EU) review bombs the game because in THEIR view Sony was harassing users from non-supported countries and in THEIR view Sony could not sell games to non-supported countries.

People from non-supported countries never complained but now are unable to play games lol

The “big” issue was a first world problem where they believe to be doing the “right” and “democratic” due the complete lack of understanding how is the situation of countries outside THEIR bubble.

Steam is refunding all buyers

 

[Danja]

Honestly I'm so glad this happened because PC players are beyond .

It's always the entitled gamers making things bad for everyone and now all the PC players in unsupported countries will suffer while they still get access to it.

But this also highlights that Sony really are out of their depths with this PC market. It's one headache after the other.... Is it really worth it?

Steam is refundign all buyers

Good job Steam, now you should also refund any vietnamese players who are unable to play your games because Steam is not supported there anymore.

 

[Johnic]

Can't wait to see this shitshow release. Wonder if Sony'll change their PC strategy. The Steam page is cringe inducing with shit artwork. The 200 000 people that buy these games really aren't worth all the hassle and getting your brand dragged through the mud.

Also, where are the good reviews for HD2? You PC players promised. What happened, found another thing to be outraged about and forgot?

 

[Gods&Monsters]

Sony thinks it's worth destroying their brand for a couple of PC sales lmao

I've never seen so much negativity towards them since Activision but this one is way more damaging and concentrated.

Stellar Blade controversy + Helldivers PSN fiasco + lower PS5 sales + GOT getting delisted.

It's one after the other. Sony used to be a luxury brand but reading the comments people have more respect for Wal-Mart. The hate for them is so intense it's insane. All self-inflicted

 

[Remember_Spinal]

I think some of you believe any of this shit really matters.

Ghost of Tsushima already sold near 15 million copies, fringe countries on steam aren’t enough to bring sony down. They aren’t going to be the only major publisher who don’t do account linking, it’s not realistic.

Either pc players get with the PSN account creation or find another way to play playstation games. If steam isn’t refunding the games then sony don’t care. The number one complaint was that sony didn’t warn them ahead of time.

Well congratulations you played yourself. Not only are you warned but you are banned from even buying the game now to protect you from yourselves.

This would have easily been another outrage of “sony is charging some countries full price for half a game”

Let them throw a tantrum, they’ll get used to the idea of it after a couple more games. In the meantime sony should work on expanding its regional options for PSN

ah shit, here we go again

Yep this is exactly what happened hahaha

 

[Syndr0mePK]

Awesome.

I can't wait for the outrage for this one. When this releases you are going to see a lot of PC elitists showing their ass, making controversy about something every other publisher gets away with.

it's funny you guys were literally just on the other thread defending PC ports. Stop letting trolls like @Systemshock2023 bully and gaslight you into believing bullcrap, he doesn't know anything

LMAO the steam users are completing malding over not being able to buy HD2 and Tsushima in the restricted countries, In the HD2 subreddit the restricted countries people are blaming the ones who complained about the PSN account linking. Some dumb idiots even refunded the game and now can't buy it again . The dissension has been sown now these dumbfucks will fight each other and 6 months later Sony will re implement PSN linking.

I always said this was not the hill to die on, these people got a 40$ game with no denuvo garbage and a mtx system that was better than fair. At this point these people deserve their EA and ubisoft games

 

[Remember_Spinal]

Going to war over a psn account link. They are going to lose.

Sony isn’t cancelling Ghost of Tsushima 2 because PC players chose not to buy 600k copies this year.

 

[rofif]

If God of War, God of War Ragnarok, Spider-man, Miles Morales, Spider-man 2, Wolverine, Bloodborne, Returnal, Rift Apart, GT7, Uncharted 4, TLoU Pt1, TLoU Pt2 , Ghost of Tsushima, Horizon Zero Dawn, Horizon Forbidden West, Bloodborne, Demon's Souls, etc, were all PlayStation only games with no prospects of them ever getting released on PC would PC players interested in legally buying AAA single player games actually have resisted getting a PS4/PS5?

The answer is a resounding NO. Sony is stupid, now they spend more time working on PC ports, delay their PS5 releases and make less money then they would if they had not done anything at all (with no way to put the genie back in the bottle now).

The perfect read of the market would've been to only release GaaS games in their own PC store, but doing nothing would still have been far better than deciding to port all their games. Whoever made that decision is Sony's Phil Spencer.

They threw everybody under the bus to support pirates and PlayStation haters because everyone else that was interested in playing those games would've bought a PlayStation eventually otherwise.

Imo with big enough library of exclusives, there would be a game that brakes it for many people
And they say fuck it and get a console.
For me it was the last guardian and bloodborne in 2017.
For my friend it was gt7 and ghost of Tsushima just last year and he has a 4080.
No chance in hell he would he a ps5 now.

 

[quest4441]

Now I just hope Sony start putting in double DRM of Denuvo and a Sony Launcher in addition to the steam DRM . The funny thing is this happening to the most popular games that PCtards want, Demon Souls will require a PSN account and I hope they put an online PSN requirement for Ragnarok too.

 

[Box]

Its sad that we have no new first party games to discuss, the only thing we have to talk about is a pc port of a 4 year old game.

Seriously where the hell are the games Sony?

I haven't seen anyone blaming people over this whatsoever, are you talking about r/HELLDIVERS or the fringe r/Helldivers2?

Your wishful thinking is amusing to me though, if anything they're pushing Sony to get support for those countries. I see no dissent in the main sub at all, just people angry at Sony for doubling down and locking three more countries out of Helldivers.

 

[Exicide]

Majority of pc beggars have no purpose in life. They just exist. Agree. So they have to find some meaning to their miserable lives. Case in point stupid psn account.

Few i know (1 s kinda semi friend) re all wierd nerds, antisocioal introverts living in their worlds, heads. Majority work in IT. I swear theres nothing likw them.
1 s working in bank, 10 hours, then he come home and play dota from 6pm untill 2am or more. They ll ocasionally try some other single player games, but its all about mp, counter, dota, wow......they re mostly interested in mp.

Imagine being this disdainful because.. *checks notes* they play on PC? I would not want to live your life mate, you sound bitter. You said they have no purpose in life but they all seem to have jobs and aspirations? Have you ever thought that you just don't care enough to find out?

 

[Exicide]

I blame weirdo Steam users…

Before: Everybody could play.
Now: Only selected countries.

It was a movement from Steam users to harm Steam users

You blame Steam users because you hate PC gamers, this entire forum does lmao.

Everyone is angry at PlayStation for selling a mandatory PSN game that you can't play at all without a PSN in countries that don't have support for PSN.

They just doubled down and added 3 more countries to that lockout. Mostly everyone would stop the moment Sony adds at the very least, psuedo-support for those countries (literally just add them to the drop down menu or a Misc/Other option) except for some fringe lunatics who ree at making a PSN account, a majority, including me, already have one.
