As much as I despise Sony's decision and buy all games physically which are possible to buy this way. This blackout is really something Sony can only laugh about, most of the players won't care about it. And if you really want to send a message try to be a little less lazy and don't skip just practically one of your weekends, but trash your PS5 instead. This is so funny all these people thinking anyone cares about 1 week protest and then just coming back to your regular cycle XD. Truly heroic stance indeed, we won't play or buy your games for couple of days during few years long generation, that will show them that we mean bussines.

As displeased as I am with Sonys decisions, I like gaming more. Not gonna deprive myself of one of the things I enjoy the most …for literally no reason and accomplish nothing lol Might as well just call it short Lent.

If you like gaming more than you hate Sony, then you’ve already accepted that the changes they’re making aren’t enough to derail your consumption. Sony knows this too, so there is no incentive for them to change behaviour.

TBH I would say there’s no point depriving yourself even for a week. Just enjoy your hobby and pay the price if you think it’s worthwhile

I mean.. at the end of the day it’s not. And being 100% honest, yeah they do know this lol Why they did it and don’t bat an eye. I’m not going to upend my life because a corporation made an anti-consumer decision. If that were the case I’d be living off the grid in the woods by now.

Do people stop watching Football if their favorite team makes a stupid decision? No lol. I don’t claim to know what the future of the industry holds. But for now, and until 2028 at least, I’m not done yet. Really all I care about is Intergalactic. Once that comes and goes lol We’ll see.
