This has officially become slapstick.

Hey, at least scientists finally found the clitoris!

FEAST ON THEIR IDEOLOGICAL FLESH!!!

Picard, hands on face

Ssooo... a cable package?

Good for you, your circumstances lined up in such a way as for you to already have a PSN account through the console you own. But the issues you are ignoring are as follows:

• it is predatory to impose such a major change (and, yes, it is major) on people AFTER they have purchased the game. The ease of creating a PSN account is an utterly moot point, a paying customer should not be forced to suffer changes to a thing they, supposedly, already owned, let alone a change which basically reduces the options to "you either give us your information, or you don't play the game ON WHICH YOU ALREADY SPENT MONEY."

• the more accounts you have nowadays, the more your personal data is sold around. In addition, it's a clear demonstration of encroachment by corporations who really should have no business forcing you to sign up to their shitty platforms.

• it's an extra layer of DRM, and DRM is exclusively a bad thing however you cut it (DRM means you don't actually own the thing you friggin' bought).

• fuck Sony and their atrocious greed. Pure and simple.

This must be the most 90s thing I've seen in a decade.

Jesus Christ... Whyyy is this guy still running companies? Why does absolutely anyone take him seriously at this point?

Puh-leaaase, I've built a career on procrastinating until the very last minute then burning myself out a day before the deadline by finishing a week's worth of work in 12 hours!😎 It's not a pleasant career, nor am I ok, tho'...

More, please. I like where this is going, would totes sub!

This must be the absolute epitome of this AI replication poor taste... The person who thought it would be a good idea to do this with Carlin, probably the one human who hated human bullshit more than anyone else to have ever existed, is either so out of touch they don't even vibrate at the same frequency as the rest of existence, or so far up their own ass that they're staring at their pancreas... An absolutely disgusting move.

Now, I'm all for a Socialist utopia, but that guy did NOT do it right.
