For those who fell in the name of democracy (Helldivers 2)

Looks like Soyny screwed over people by making accounts for this game mandatory.

Oh, well, refunds time.

Meanwhile, the score for the game went from overwhelmingly positive to mostly negative in a day.
 
Sony is probably playing the long game: whatever bad publicity they are receiving currently will probably blow over in a couple of months, while the fundamentals they put in place will pay dividends across future projects.

... Which is to say it's probably a good time to buy their stocks in a couple of weeks as the current negative reactions bottom out, and they start the long climb back to normality. Just remember to dump as soon as it start look good because chances are they'll do another one of these "long term forward thinking decision".

(obviously not legit financial advice)

Sony is one of the companies with the worst possible reputation.

People should really stop attributing to malicious 4d chess conspiracy that which can be explained by simple, short-signed stupidity.

Their exclusives are crap, they are well known for limiting fan service and being assholes to their users, they have long stopped being at the cutting edge of anything and the PS5's sales were below expectation and Microsoft is fucking them up the ass.

Nevermind buying stock, liquidate the company and sell it for parts, it will likely be more profitable chopped up and auctioned off.

 
Fair enough, Sony seemed to pussy out of their stunning and brave decision. At least now they have a better idea where the line in the sand is and where to push the next time around.
