Its wild to think Lethal Company will probably become the FOTM once again.
I mean, it's kind of deserved tbh, it's a great game for streaming as a small group. If you could somehow combine that game with The Long Drive it'd be actually perfect for streaming, vehicular manslaughter + goofy physics makes every game better.

EDIT: I threw that out there without thinking too much about it at first but holy fuck a Long Drive-esque Lethal Company would be fucking amazing, imagine having to go into a randomly generated facility full of monsters to get fuel for your car so you don't get killed at night. I actually want this now.

Sony is just going to brush Helldivers 2 under the rug since they couldnt farm culture war bucks like TLOU2

There was a schizo theory about Sony kneecapping Stellar Blade so they can later buy out the studio and now this makes me double take on that, i doubt they could buy Shift Up since they also make Nikke but Arrowhead is much smaller
Nah. Apparently it was technically a requirement from the start, but the feature broke when they released it to the public, so they had it disabled until now.

Sure, but them not saying anything and then editing a help page really makes my nogging jog

Honestly, the Helldivers 2 outrage feels a bit forced. I mean, I find it kind of annoying that they're changing this out of nowhere, but it's just a two-minute process of setting up a Sony account and then linking it, isn't it? Or is there more to it than that, that I haven't heard of?

Aside from the stance of "Fuck you I wont do what you tell me", PSN is one of the most, if not THE most insecure platform ever.

They sold the game in areas that dont have access to a PSN account ToS-wise, good chunk of South America and Africa dont have access to it

Okay. Is this an issue if you just don't use the same password that you use elsewhere? Like, what's going to happen if there's a data-breach, outside of people knowing you play Helldivers 2?

I was taking your nuances seriously until this.
Yeah sure, total nígger death, just 2 minutes yadda yadda, you are correct, I'm just not gonna do it, and neither thousands of players apparently, because steam seems to be more than willing to refund regardless of play time.

I have a solution for you, Sony.
All PS players get a Helghast-inspired armor and helmet set. Steam players get it if they link their PS account.
You get your increased number of "active" PSN accounts and nobody complains.

That one set that vaugely looked like a Stalhelm got some redditors bitching, they would lose their minds with a Helghast

Holy shit they really did make this call and fuck off for the weekend, didn't they? Poor Kenji and Daisuke waking up to THIS shitfest. :whatastory:

It's honestly sad this entire situation could have been avoided by using even the smallest carrot instead of a stick. Helghast armor, maybe something based on Destiny? Would have so fucking simple. Hell, even 500 or 1000 super credits could have done it for others. So dumb.

Lol, okay bro.

Looks like it doesn't really matter either way, since they walked it back.

I will never understand why nip corpos make announcements at the start of golden week when they will be completely unable to respond to any crises until a week later.
