I don't put any nuts in my mouth, thank you.

Right now. Mostly just cause my brain felt like flying off the rails. Can't afford my meds right now, and yet we need $25k for our wedding still in 4 months, and we can't seem to dig ourselves out of the financial hole I dug us into after leaving my last job for my mental health and be incomeless for 3 months. Fun stuff for sure.
What's the bad behaviour we're accepting right now though?
The game was review bombed to hell and back and people stopped playing because of the behaviour. No one accepted it. Sony now doesn't have the account linking they wanted, and people not coming back to the game now punishes the Devs because it's their livelihood too.
You 100% don't have to play the game again, and it's a 100% understandable choice, fuck the corpos. But like... You get to have fun, and you support the Devs that work hard to make the content, without feeding your account data to Sony. My perspective shows little to no downside, even considering what benefits Sony.
That's right, I have heard of some of these cases, but thank you very much for the info! I definitely didn't want Sony to have any ground to stand on here, so happy that Valve is able to step up to protect consumers however they can.
That's why I said I wasn't sure and that I was asking for clarification?
At the end of the day, you have control over your own actions. You will be the one missing out in HD2, and if you're ok with that, then so be it.
The funny thing about this is that this community has proven it will not take any bullshit, so you're doing yourself a disservice by not allowing yourself to be a part of it anymore.
If you enjoy the game, allow yourself to play it again, and if Sony gets up to fuckery, believe in your fellow Divers to drop the bomb on them again.
Short answer: Yes.
Longer answer: The access hadn't been removed yet, as the update that would enable account linking wasn't pushed yet. As for the Steam side, I'm pretty sure people who already had the game installed should've had access still, although updates and general unsureness definitely could be obstacles. With this tweet, however, the update is no longer coming, and were just waiting for Sony/Valve to lift the selling/installing restrictions in those countries.
Would the publisher not have to request the game not be sold in those countries before Valve restricts the sale of it?
I believe that Valve may be the ones who do it, but just doing it without permission sounds... Illegal and out of their jurisdiction.
I know Valve controls their storefront and can absolutely pull games down, just looking for some clarification on whether this could be true or not.
One company owns a vast amount of all grocery stores in Canada.

So sure, it may not be the "grocery stores" individually, it's sure as shit on their holding company.

hold on, im a communist and i love golf
Yeah, but the issues there are any musicians that aren't Taylor Swift don't make enough on their music alone. They have to either continue working, or go to other extreme lengths with frequent touring, extensive merch offerings, etc. They have to work the equivalent of 3 full time jobs (somehow) to make the money worth it.
If they were to nationalize YT in the same way, there would be 0 content creators. There is already so much effort that goes into that work, lowering the amount people earn even more would kill that as a career path.
Just my speculation of course, but I don't think the answer is always "make the governments pay for it". That will come back around in taxes, and the everyone is paying for YouTube Premium.
