    We’ve been over this before… Sony is a company. Companies exist to make money. Sony controls whether you can unlink an account. Sony can choose not to let you unlink your account.

    Do you think everyone else is just stupid, and no hacker ever thought of unlinking their account and creating a new one? Or Sony is stupid and doesn’t realise hackers can create a new account? I don’t understand how you completely skip over arguments in the comments you’re replying to.

    And therein lies the bootlicking. You’re assuming Sony will play nice and let you keep playing, no questions asked - while they almost took away the ability to play an online game months after launch for players in hundreds of countries, which was only thwarted by massive protests. Yet you stand there and say “nooo, they’d never do that”.

      Man I’m so sick of people getting blinded by rage. Alright, if you’re just going to go in circles, I might as well repeat myself as well. Companies exist to make money. If they fuck over their customers, those customers leave. Others follow. Congrats. You lose money. Basic logic 101.

      Again, I’m not a bootlicker. I just don’t automatically assume malice when something could more easily explained by incompetence.

      Also, way to go ignoring what I said about rockstar and Ubisoft accounts. I guess Sony won’t let you unlink from a steam account based on what, how you feel?

        And easily disproven by Sony’s recent actions with Helldivers 2. If you were right, they wouldn’t have thought about rolling out the PSN requirement, and they’d still sell the game world-wide. But you’re not.

        When one party gains a monetary advantage through their “incompetence” and keeps repeating such “incompetencies”, then yes, you are a bootlicker.

        Because it doesn’t matter… Come on, this is not that hard.

        Sony already has the ability to not let you unlink, as shown from the hacker example. So why are you so sure they won’t use the same mechanism to make more money in the future? Because of how you feel? Bootlickers often feel like companies won’t do evil things for profit, sadly they are almost always wrong.

          Uhhh okay I guess I can’t win with a brain running that kind of logic.

          Good day to you sir.

            “Whoops, companies keep doing amoral shit to squeeze more profits from their customers, but it’s totally accidental, every single time”

            Enjoy your boots - I sincerely hope that for every person you influenced towards giving corporations the benefit of the doubt, you lose an equal amount of money through legal yet amoral business practices.
