While 177 countries sounds like a lot, it's not where the majority of players are. PSN operates in the top 15 countries by GDP and the top 4 by population.

Of course there's still the question of why they work in so few countries when literally none of their competitors (that I know of) have those limitations.

It's because it's a Japanese company. I'm not saying this out of racism but because they're known for being archaic in how they do certain things. Like game modding and work schedules. Their public transit is top fucking notch though.

I thought you were being racist until you said that thing about public transit, so we're good 👍

EDIT: I was making a dumb joke, y'all. I thought OP did not need to worry about sounding racist at all so I was trying ricochet off of that. Sorry, pretty clearly did not land right, I apologize.

That wasn't in response to my racist comment but in response to the archaic comment. They're as much archaic in procedure and bureaucracy as they are advanced in tech.
