oh no /r/gamingcirclejerk is now doing a complete 180 lmao https://old.reddit.com/r/Gamingcirclejerk/comments/1clarww/i_am_so_astounded_that_this_resolved_the_way_it/

after deepthroating snoy for 3 fricking days straight! !g*mers

Morherfrickers completed an IRL major order god bless our helldivers 🫡

Remember that no matter what, it is always the morally correct choice to bully a multibillion dollar corporation

Bullying works. Also, it's Monday. Social media teams may work over weekends, but people making decisions probably have worker rights.

/uj Weren't there a lot of people on here clowning on people being rightfully upset and shilling for a multibillion dollar corporation? To all those people, is it a good thing or a bad thing that Sony backtracked their initial, anticonsumer decision?

Sometimes people get caught up in the jerk and being contrarian. This was an extremely rare situation where g*mers were justified in both their motives and their execution. Congrats Helldivers, y'all earned this win.

[On one hand, this is the correct decision and Sony (and possibly Valve) handled things incredibly poorly by not making the PSN requirement far more noticeable before purchase and by not restricting sales in countries without PSN access from the get go.

On the other hand, this is simply going to embolden dipshit grifters like that pissbaby Kern with whatever moronic complaint they have every week. Because they'll take this as a sign they can bully a company into submission. (Again, not counting this specific situation, where the anger was actually understandable).](https://old.reddit.com/r/Gamingcirclejerk/comments/1clarww/i_am_so_astounded_that_this_resolved_the_way_it/l2slay4/?context=8)

You have it the wrong way. It's a massive win for steam that other companies have to be forced to follow their lead.

What advantages does a PSN subscription even have?

It made it easier for the game's jannies to ban you, as proudly mentioned by one of them.

It also meant more data for Sony to sell.

Yes to the lol, but it's also important to remind these companies which groups you piss off but it won't matter, versus which ones will effect the bottom line if you drive them away.

Though this is hardly a test case, considering they were stipulating something that would make the game illegal or impossible to play in a great many places, including for people that had already bought the game. Even with refunds that's an incredibly poor choice, and I'm glad the pushback was severe enough to prevent it.

they literally bought the game. it's just reviews dude lmao

I know, but they also had the chance to refund it even with more than two hours played. It's less of an empty gesture when you can get your money back and then join the review bombing.

G*mers on average are insanely dumb, so gaming companies can get away with being wildly inept. I assume this is the relationship at least.

Oh no, how will snoy ever recover from losing the precious revenue streams of the French Mariana, Guyana, Grenada, and Afghanistan??? :soycry:

The list of the 10 gorillion countries PSN doesn't support was exclusively irrelevant French micro islands with 8 people living on them
