Is it really?

Say what you want about Africa, but they do not tolerate LGBTQ+.

PSN is available in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Lebanon, Qatar, UAE, Oman, and Bahrain, so that probably isn't the reason why most African countries don't have PSN.

Some other countries that don't have it include:
  • Pacific Island countries, i.e Samoa, Tonga, Fiji. (Unless they use a general region instead, which I couldn't find). Maybe Samoa not having PSN would explain WWE's fetish for Samoan wrestlers...
  • Dominican Republic, most likely as punishment for Haiti existing, as well as other Caribbean Island countries, i.e. Jamaica.
  • Sri Lanka and Venezuela, which are both failing/failed states.
  • Mongolia, which would probably explain why they have Counter-Strike E-Sports teams, somehow.

I for one am definitely glad this happened before I pulled the trigger and actually bought the game I was also probably going to grab Ghost of Tsushima but unfortunately that also requires you to link a PSN account so I guess not.

even without the account the devs fucked up. some tards on /v/ were going "b-but halo mcc needs an account tooo!" - yeah, from day fucking one, so people would know to skip it. you don't make that shit mandatary 3 months later.

also, food for thought: it worked just fine for 3 months, so there's absolutely no technical reason for having to use it. so why should you?

End game is to make it so they need PS+ to play games on other platforms.

sony doesn't have the catalogue for it unless they pay for more exclusive (cutting into those profits) for games most people don't give a shit about anyway, the only other alternative is streaming via psnow or whatever, which bigger and more tech literate companies already tried.

God please air more dirty laundry from Sony. Remember when Sony was saying that they're actually FOR crossplay and a bunch of devs came out and said, with proof, "they literally blocked us from doing crossplay"?

sony is all for crossplay - if you pay for it to make up all the possible lost sales from microtransactions. it came out during the epic spergout.

1-2-Switch sold over 3 million despite being a terrible tech demo.
Click to expand...
To be fair there were only 7 launch games for the Switch at launch and two of them were fucking Just Dance and Skylanders so it kind of makes sense why people actually bought it. I only bought it as it was easier to show off the Switch to my friends at launch with 1-2 than with Zelda, which none of my friends cared about

I'm less pessimistic than Null about this.
Every MMORPG that has attempted a "freemium" model of loot boxes and cash shops has gone into "dead game" mode within 60 days of launch.
They have no long-term viability.
This model is why WoW hasn't been long buried, and it's why FFXIV a Realm Reborn has remained the top of the market for the past few years despite reaching age 10 this year.

TOR? TES:O? Tons of Korean shit? Your statement does not match reality.

Sony banning SEA monkies and sandniggers is a bad thing? Sounds based to me.

Here's the pattern with those:
1 - pre-release: some lolcowlizer fucks over the entire flavor of the game, causing a mass exodus of die-hard fans
2 - release: people pile in hoping it will be "different than the last hundred"
3 - it becomes clear it isn't different
4 - mass exodus
5 - a leftover residue of whales haunt the dead husk of a game for the next 5-7 years until shutdown.

ESO is having it's 10th anniversary this year, even lotro is still getting content. now idea wtf you're talking about

WoW was literally freemium if you did grind enough gold for tokens, almost like the business model has fuck all to do with games failing, see: destiny.

TOR lasted a full decade and only took off once it went FTP. Try again
 
With all those dystopian patents, I wish Sony would just let their engineers make cool shit and sell that, they were always good at that and should stick to that. Or actually innovate like they did with the compact disc that they've developed with Philips back when Philips wasn't just making cheap consumer electronics. I wish we went back to those days instead of the current profit only oriented market where no one is innovating as long the green line goes up.

As for everyone who says that gamers are whiney cunts for refusing to just make a PSN account, here's something for ya:

The boiling frog is an apologue describing a frog being slowly boiled alive. The premise is that if a frog is put suddenly into boiling water, it will jump out, but if the frog is put in tepid water which is then brought to a boil slowly, it will not perceive the danger and will be cooked to death. The story is often used as a metaphor for the inability or unwillingness of people to react to or be aware of sinister threats that arise gradually rather than suddenly.

The water you're all collectively sitting in is boiling, yet you don't feel your skin falling off.
