Comment on EA wants to place in-game ads in its full-price AAA games, again
CosmicCleric@lemmy.world 1 month agoNothing changed with Helldivers. The game is still blocked in over 100 countries and people who rightfully purchased the game still can not play it. Sure we don’t have to create an account, but that was annoying -not an actual issue. The real issue was thousands of people suddenly losing access to their game because Sony wants conversion.
Last I heard that problem went away with them backing off of not needing a Playstation account anymore.
And the fact that they backed off the account requirement is a definate win for us.

Sony made a social media post. Original date for PsN requirement was June. During the backlash, over 100 countries were delisted. They still are. The current situation is still much worse than launch.

Don’t think you’re representing the situation accurately.
The primary goal was to not have to create a Playstation account.
Sony can always decide where to sell their products, regardless if there’s a controversy, or just any day of the week and for any reason. We could never control where Sony sells their products.

It’s pretty typical that you’re getting downvoted for not crying 100% gloom about every possible thing.

I’d love to know how to get a refund. I’ve tried 4 times with different prompts suggested in forums and comments. It is in fact worse and not equal to the state it was in at launch.

Try asking again for one.
That video I linked was stating they were now doing refunds. I haven’t tried it, since I don’t own the game (didn’t like the root level access crap). But I’ve also read elsewhere that at first they were not doing refunds but they changed their minds and now they are.
