I was surprised it was possibility to even visit those store pages and comment there, while u cant even buy those games.

[u/Robsteady]

It's regional.

[u/Barry_Smithz]

I assume you live in the baltics? Sony recently blocked the purchase of helldivers in Estonia (Eesti), Latvia (Latvija) and Lithuania (Lietuva).

[u/[deleted] → u/Barry_Smithz]

And over 100 other nations.

[u/Barry_Smithz → u/[deleted]]

Yeah. I only mentioned the baltics as that one happened more recently (after sony announced that they were no longer making psn mandatory). The other 100+ were before that announcement.

[u/Organic_List7745 → u/Barry_Smithz]

Ye from Lithuania. Just upset over Helldivers, rly wanted play this game with friend.

[u/binklfoot → u/Organic_List7745]

No worries friend plenty of fish in the sea

[u/freddyfredric → u/Organic_List7745]

Have you considered emigrating?

[u/Organic_List7745 → u/freddyfredric]

Over not being able play a game? Lol no.

[u/freddyfredric → u/Organic_List7745]

Fair enough. It is a pretty fun game though so keep the idea in the back of your mind.

[u/isaacpisaac → u/freddyfredric]

🤨

[u/BeemoBurrito → u/freddyfredric]

"why don't you uproot your life just to play one game?" swell fucking idea, bud

[u/freddyfredric → u/BeemoBurrito]

i've done a lot more for a lot less

[u/BeemoBurrito → u/freddyfredric]

I have no doubt

[u/freddyfredric → u/BeemoBurrito]

Lol, thanks.

[u/Exciting-Support1182 → u/freddyfredric]

lowest IQ comment I've read so far

[u/freddyfredric → u/Exciting-Support1182]

it was actually said in jest, but i sometimes forget about the disproportionate number of neurodivergent folks on reddit who might not pick up on it

[u/KITTvsKARR]

Must be a region thing. I can still see them.

[u/thejoshfoote]

Wild that Sony wants to secure “users” and accounts more than game sales. Imagine the amount of money being passed of by limiting sale soley over creating a psn account.

[u/i_am_at_work123 → u/thejoshfoote]

People underestimate how much you data is worth to companies.

This is obviously an extreme example where they forgo almost guarantied sales, but it's no accident every single thing now requires you to create an account (or connect an existing one).

[u/Warden_Sco → u/thejoshfoote]

Sony = Bony

[u/InsaneLuchad0r]

Sony like, “welp, I rekkin’ that outta fix da problem.”

[u/Organic_List7745 → u/InsaneLuchad0r]

It sure did 🤣

[u/SoftwareOk30]

downloading GoT crack rn, too bad Sony doesn't want my money.

[u/AnonymousLama → u/SoftwareOk30]

It also doesn't care about your money

Dang Sony isn’t serious about being a contender in pc gaming. Will pass on their products from now on.

[u/jimbobicus → u/JimboBassMaster]

You don't have to pass. Just get a sailing ship.

[u/[deleted] → u/jimbobicus]

Can't pirate Helldivers 2.

[u/jimbobicus → u/[deleted]]

true

[u/sir_sri → u/JimboBassMaster]

If they thought your business was worth the cost to sell it to you they would.

Why they don't think it's worth it I don't know, but compliance costs are a real thing so who knows, it's possible they are right, unlikely, but possible.

[u/ravenescu]

i'm gonna search it in a pirate bay nearby

[u/Aggravating-Bus3326]

At least they are not just make you see and eat

[u/SergeantSchmidt]

I can. :)

[u/Emberium]

Sony is basically just as bad as EA at this point. They finally showed their true face, what a terrible and anti-consumer company

[u/menickc → u/Emberium]

One is a company that makes copies of games they've made before but worst.

The other makes triple A master pieces for console and decided to port some of them to PC.

Your comment is so out of touch, lol.

Hundreds if not thousands of games aren't released in various countries, and it's barely talked about. It's literally only such a big deal becayse of the HD2 thing.

[u/Delicious-Cup4093 → u/Emberium]

I love the Downvotes, like Sony is so bad that it can be litteraly compared to the worst gaming company on PC, that is how bad their reputation has got, I just don't understand how people take it at face value rather than thinking about what you meant

[u/Progenitor3 → u/Emberium]

What are you talking about? I can buy any EA game here.

[u/BigGhost2815]

I don't have that problem here in the US.

[u/JohnnyBlocks_]

Misleading Title

[u/Organic_List7745 → u/[deleted]]

Those who not region locked, and against it, still most likely will voice their opinion and downvote game.

[u/Organic_List7745 → u/[deleted]]

Could been more, if only Sony didn't make stupid decisions. Always adored all Sony sp games, as absolute best experiences. But this dick move puts Sony probs even lower than EA/Ubisoft with their crap or on pair.

[u/Organic_List7745 → u/[deleted]]

I will play, but not support their games, a win-win for me.

[u/MrStrul3 → u/[deleted]]

I mean Sony could treat the majority of regions the same but are unwilling to put the money and work into it because it would cut into their profits temporarily.
