Pc gamers with 15 accounts being asked to create one more.

And this is after they have already bought the game. Sony turns around and wants existing players to sign up for something that wasn’t there when they purchased the game.

How about you go buy a car and then a few months later, the manufacturer says you need to sign up for a free account to continue driving said car? You’d be cool with it? You wouldn’t think it was a dick move? Free or not, people are sick of needing accounts to use everything. It’s just another way for making money off our data and another avenue for our information getting leaked (does no one remember Sony’s track record for breaches and leaks??).

I mean, it’s standard behaviour for the industry. Gamers have been royally fucked in the ass , in public, for 10 years or more. This is nothing.

Standard behaviour isn’t an excuse for shitty practices. If you want the standard to become better, rebel against/boycott entities enforcing that standard.

Once upon a time slavery was standard behaviour. Once upon a time company towns were standard behaviour. Once upon a time, absolute monarchies were standard behaviour. Things got better because people didn’t accept the standard and took a stand against it. Not because they dismissed it as the standard.

Gamer compares been required to login with sony, to slavery.

Keep going mate - I’m loving it .

I’m pointing out that “it’s fine because it’s the norm” isn’t a logical argument by showing how absurd that argument sounds when applied to other things.

Logical arguments are sound even when you use them for other contexts.

When you use quotes, you’re supposed use words that words actually said by someone. Not paraphrase, not your interpretation. So, I suggest mastering the basics, before moving on logical and absurdism.

And when you’ve done that, go and take a long hard stare in the mirror, and ask yourself if you think it’s clever or moral, to invoke slavery as a means to win an argument about a PSN account.

You can grow from this.
