  • I can see where you’re coming from but you have to understand:

    • arrowhead never wanted Sony integration. Publishers always do this and force devs to add services to games that don’t need it.
    • arrowhead had to disable it for people to be able to play the game due to the server issues.
    • arrowhead is not responsible for the distribution of the game. Sony handles the publishing, including which regions the game is available in. Arrowhead didn’t choose to sell the game in regions without PSN support.
    • the developers were and still are under immense pressure for something nobody wanted but Sony execs. The attitude and franticness at the studio would have been intense and confusing. I know this because I work in a game studio, that has a publisher, and I’ve had to implement this kind of stuff in our games and I can guarantee that most of the choices and sensibility are well out of the studio’s control.
