I heard somewhere that the game studio director asked the community to post negative reviews, so that they could use them as an argument against Sony's bright idea

That is exactly what one of the devs said. It’s a great argument, now it’s up to sony whether they will be braindead bout it

Never underestimate the power of MBA's to triple down on a failed idea and piss away a fortune all to spare a few people's egos.

As I got more and more involved into the corporate world I realized just how many educated fools are out there. It's kind of impressive honestly to hear some dumbass rattle on ro my face how a plan that is obviously terrible is going to be a great benefit because nothing outside of immediate short term boost matters. Too many rats looking for their own golden parachutes.

I'd love to hear some stories, assuming you aren't bound by NDA or something.

Not NDA but i'd rather not give away something that might trace back to my real socials and identity. I cast a massive net with this shitposting account and outside so there's no telling who might be looking to connect the dots. I'm sorry man i can never be too specific.
