i like the fediverse radio. i like the radio. when i was a kid and my exposure to the outside world was so limited by all the cult stuff... i had alarm clocks with radios and walkmans and stuff, headphones... the radio. through that, much earlier than i was able to branch out on the internet... TV after everyone else was asleep... and the radio. the ads, the talk shows, the music, and my mom couldnt stop the waves and must not have thought about my receiving them.
**Title: I Bought GTA V on Steam â Now Sony Wants Me to Pay *Again*?!**
You know what's more criminal than Trevor on a rampage? The absolute scam that is cross-platform licensing â or more accurately, the total lack of it. I bought *Grand Theft Auto V* on **Steam**, and like a fool, I assumed â in the year 2025, mind you â that I might be able to play it on my **PlayStation** without having to re-mortgage my soul.
WRONG.
Apparently, buying a game *once* isnât enough anymore. I forked over my money to Rockstar via Steam, downloaded 90GB of compressed American chaos, and now I find out that if I want to play the *same exact game* on my PlayStation, I have to buy it *again* through Sonyâs little walled garden of overpriced mediocrity.
Letâs get this straight:
* The game is the **same**.
* The publisher is the **same**.
* My money is **real** either way.
And yet somehow, Sony and Rockstar have the gall to pretend that Iâm supposed to buy a **second copy** like itâs 2006 and weâre swapping discs with our friends behind the school gym.
What century are we living in? I can watch a movie I bought on my phone, tablet, smart TV, fridge, and probably a calculator if I try hard enough. But games? Nope. If you want to switch platforms, you'd better have your wallet ready because apparently âdigital ownershipâ is just a fancy way of saying âtemporary platform-specific rental.â
Why is there no unified licensing system? Why canât Rockstar link my Social Club account across platforms and just let me play the damn game I already paid for? The only thing âcross-platformâ here is the *disrespect* for customers.
And don't give me the "different ecosystems" excuse. If they can sell me shark cards on both platforms, they can sell me a license that *travels with me*. But no â weâre stuck living in a digital feudal system where Sony is the greedy lord and Iâm the peasant who dared ask for access to land I already paid for.
Enough is enough. I donât want crossplay. I donât want cloud saves. I want **cross-ownership**. One game, one purchase, **everywhere**.
Until then, Sony and Rockstar can enjoy my middle finger â because they sure as hell arenât getting another cent. Until GTA 6.
