I’m a PS5 player, so I can’t make an impact, but if you did write a negative review (thank you, you made this happen ❤️) please consider taking the time to change it! This was clearly not AH decision and the game deserves an accurate review, it’s easily one of the best games I’ve ever played and definitely the best game as a service!
Edit: woke up to new comments, this post reminded… Lemmy is just the same as Reddit.
Edit2: Christ I need to turn off Lemmy notifications, I’ve left this community and this was a stark reminder for me… don’t engage with a specific game community, just enjoy the fucking game!
Good. Sony should be afraid of burning their review scores so badly that they can’t recover.
If they refuse to cooperate then they deserve to lose market share over forcing unpopular choices on their customers and potential customers.
Okay, and what do they deserve when they do cooperate?
Parole.
It’ll take years to build up trust again, they need to avoid squandering what little goodwill they have left (from people with memories too short to recall the Sony Music rootkit debacle).
The black mark stays on their permanent record, but they have an opportunity to demonstrate that they have actually reformed and aren’t just saying the right things to mitigate the current PR disaster.
