I’m a PS5 player, so I can’t make an impact, but if you did write a negative review (thank you, you made this happen ❤️) please consider taking the time to change it! This was clearly not AH decision and the game deserves an accurate review, it’s easily one of the best games I’ve ever played and definitely the best game as a service!

Edit: woke up to new comments, this post reminded… Lemmy is just the same as Reddit.

Edit2: Christ I need to turn off Lemmy notifications, I’ve left this community and this was a stark reminder for me… don’t engage with a specific game community, just enjoy the fucking game!

    “Oh no, it hurts the guys who signed a contract with Sony where they agreed that PSN integration for PC was ok! :(”

        And they didn’t break the contract even though it had been altered

        And they released the game to regions that don’t have access to PSN

          Sony would have won that legal battle and AH would cease to exist.

          The devs could move elsewhere, but backing for people who fought capitalism and lost is less favorable than you think. We probably would never get another Magicka. And definitely would never get another Helldivers, let alone Helldivers 2.

          I’m all for overthrowing the system, but AH doesn’t have the sway to do anything but hope they can continue making fun games. And I hope they do. That gives them more sway, one game at a time.
