Garbage cunts.

TheTechNerd@lemmy.world on 11 May 2024 07:11 next collapse

I think soon they will require a psn account for all their upcoming games

hal_5700X@sh.itjust.works on 11 May 2024 07:12 next collapse

Safe bet.

It’s definitely an anti piracy measure. Which sucks complete fucking ass

Edit: it’s multiplayer only

Cheems@lemmy.world on 11 May 2024 13:21 collapse

There will definitely be a way around this easily for pirates. They may believe that if will stop piracy but it’s really just going to be anti consumer

What’s the point of region restricting PSN accounts?

hal_5700X@sh.itjust.works on 11 May 2024 07:48 next collapse

Laws? 🤷‍♂️

It’s not illegal to speculate.

It’s kind of weird too since they sell PS5s in regions where PSN isn’t officially supported.

Except getting more user information, I don’t really see the big advantage for Sony so it’d be interesting to know why they want to require a PSN account in countries where you can’t get one.

Also I’d want to know why you can’t get one in some countries.

“Play has no limits”

Nice, it’s already banned where I live. Can’t wait to pirate it.

It costs them money to include, so they’ll take it out eventually

simple@lemm.ee on 11 May 2024 11:09 next collapse

Guess I’ll wait it out, as usual.

It being a huge game everyone wants to play. %100 will get cracked within a month.

LiveLM@lemmy.zip on 11 May 2024 15:37 collapse

Is it announced to have it? Don’t see anything on the Steam store page, games with Denuvo generally have a little warning there

4thDimensionDuck@programming.dev on 12 May 2024 02:15 collapse

hopefully not. the PSN debaucle is a bit suspect though. Sony’s being a big douche lately.

A few weeks later:

Sony: Piracy is killing the industry! We need tougher legislation!

I already have a Steam account, I’m not giving yet another company my details and login data just to play a game on a platform I already have an account for. Nope.

So you’re gonna buy it from the PlayStation store and play it on PS5?
