Waaaaaaaaaah! Sony needs to stop closing servers that nobody uses!
They gave out this game for free of PS+ and still nobody plays it. Why should they keep servers open and waste money?
I don't normally like to be that guy who accuses others of defending "anti-consumer" actions, but: why are you defending this anti-consumer action?
The way people put the interests of the corporation who provides them with Gaming Content™ above their own interests is fucking wild, man. "Why should they keep servers open and waste money?" Oh, idunno, because they sold a product to people that relied on those servers? They got money from a bunch of people for that game, who reasonably expected that it would be usable for more than two years? Why is it your concern if keeping those servers open is a waste of money? It's part of the cost of providing people with the game they
already paid for.
And before people start with the strawman of "oh, so you think the servers should be up
forever?" (EDIT: too late...), no, nobody's saying that. It's unreasonable to expect that the servers for any game will be up until the heat death of the universe. But the people buying the game do have a reasonable expectation that it will be playable for a reasonable amount of time, and I'd
love to hear someone tell me why they think it's okay for that to only be two years.
You're allowed to like your PlayStation and still think that Sony occasionally does bullshit moves, guys.
