I think this is related to PSN not being allowed in those countries. A PSN account is required to play Ghost of Tsushima co-op. It would probably be considered fraud to sell a game in those countries that the user can’t play due to not being able to create an account. Valve is probably just covering their rears in the eyes of the law in those countries.
I don’t know why PSN isn’t available in these countries, but I have feeling it has a lot to due with those countries governmental regulations.
Though, now that the PSN account link is no longer required for Helldivers 2, it’s odd that those countries are still blocked. Maybe Valve is waiting for the second wave of changes. They’ve said that they are going to continue discussions, so their might be another attempt in the near future.
I’m not sure that matters, might depend on why PSN isn’t available. If the country itself has decided to ban PSN for some reason then I don’t think sony would be found in breach, like some games can’t be sold in Germany because they’re kind of weird about certain things. But if sony is the reason PSN is not available then I think that as well might be a breach of this law and by extension of course so would not selling the games in the Baltic states.
Someone actually affected might have to report it for anything to come out of it though.
Yeah it’s difficult to say without know who is actually preventing PSN from being available and it very well could be a combination between all the countries affected by this.
so as someone who loved the beta n has put 500+ hours into the game i can shed some light…
the beta was the best… fast paced unique mechanics n duos as their main gameplay…
1.) after they came back on full released the game was missing features the beta had…
it was b/c the game went from unreal engine 4 to unreal engine 5…
if anyone knows a bit of programming knowledge its not a simple copy paste situation…
game basically had to b rewritten…
a lot of people didnt understand this n complain about it…
2 ) people that spent money on skins didnt get their skins or even characters they bought back…
even if the skin had returned it was locked out…
3.) the game was now slower n actually had what they called balancing… in other words everyone got
nerfed… im againts nerfing i believe in only buffing n maybe tweaking… but nerfs just hurt
everyone…
4.) the monetization by wb was horrendous… so let me try my best to break it down in parts…
n mind u… i had every character in the game… whenever a new character was released they found
a new way to block them off with money… there was 2 currencies in the game…
fighter coins n glemium… fighter coins are used to buy characters… older characters worth less…
glemium was only for skins its the paid stuff n u can earn some by doing quest n playing the game… (ez so far right)
well after season 2they said f u… new characters are now worth glemium or just pay $20… n the way new fighters work its they are broken on day one n patched down the road… so enjoy a broken new character for money or enjoy a balanced version of it (not as fun) when new character is out…
season 3 threw that out the window n said nah now u need to buy a battlepass to get access…
anyways im getting ahead of myself…
uk those 2 coin types now each new event new tokens are introduced… for example cyber skins came out… new cyber token can buy cyber skins for a select few characters that look pretty cool…
spooky token, christmast token etc etc… just new event new token which… i get it but get this… the fomo was so bad that if u missed a day of daily grinds you where almost guaranteed not to get that skin u wanted… its grind everyday or have to pay real $… no excuses…
5.) ok now rift… T-T…
rifts where challenges and new ways to play the game… ok but its locked to only play npcs n u have something new called rift tokens… what are rift tokens u asked well good question… n the answer is i dont effing know… they where a means to block the player from progressing too high up the ladder w/o playing the game every single day n with a buddy… i forget what they stand for but their was yellow green n red…
ok but what do they do… well thats ez… lots of stuff lol
so each token typed needed to level up to have access to new difficulties of the same rifts u’ve been playing over n over… (as intended) green missions only allowed green tokens to work n etc… tokens added bonuses on to your player like more health more damage a wacky assortment of buffs like maybe faster speed or jump higher… add chill on hit n just a whole random assortment…
ok ok but how do you level these tokens… well u do challenges that in itself gatekeep ya…
huh? ok for example beat this level with a looney tune character… oh u dont have one… well buy one or u cant progress… fun right
well didnt u have every character??? yes n i also got gatekept… beat this stage with bugs bunny n the shark skin… yes challenges can require players n skins to progress… tho i will admit this was changed later down the line to lend u the character n or skin… this was still early grind on these dang rifts n it was all so slow… mind u unlocking skins n or characters early on needed u to 100% a rift which again where gatekept… ok so tokens slowed progress n challenges gatekeep u can just avoid this right???
nooo… daily missions where tied here so u had to come here or get hit with fomo…
imagine redoing the previous missions over n over again everyday… not all of em cus they where random…
well with all these negatives there was one positive… some mini games where fun… like break the targets… but u where still sometimes limited to the character u can pick or skin u can use… if they could have separated these from the rifts they would of been cool new game modes… but overall f these rifts…
did i cover everything idk…
but i loved this game… i dropped out after power puff girls came out… they kept nerfing characters n adding new tokens to the point they removed the useless fighter coins which i ended up having like 20k of near the end… never even used one… they added raven which i would of loved to play but all these issues made me not have as much fun with as i once did… also roa2 had just come out so i switched real quick… this game had so much love n detail from the voice over n art style to the idle animations n even skins having their own new or different dialogue… some characters even cursed like rick with a switchable toggle in the settings menu… and some characters talked to each other whether on separate teams or on same team…
R.I.P. multiversus u will b missed but u did it to yourself…
