It can't be both. You can criticize the game that's fine. But if you still play it and you are so vocal for its demise then you are definitely part of the problem here.

I never played or bought it, because I hate Sony and don't play always online multiplayer games because they treat players as cattle and not as users.

So you are asking other players to review bomb and try to kill a game you never bought yourself?

Fascinating.

Edit: I think the above conversation is a good example of why I don't think Steam Review Bombing is the best solution. You get people delivering fake reviews sometimes for games they don't even play themselves. I understand why they do that I just don't think that's the right way to do so. And also thinks it's not fair for the actual devs working on the project.

I'm not asking anyone to do anything. I do all my trashing individually and independently. That's a straw man the size of the wicker man.

Yes

I asked but was denied my first one, and did not submit a second one before Sony walked back the changes.

I don't actually have plans to return to the game, because Sony is consistently fucking with the dev team and the game has now accrued so much technical debt that the constant bugs and issues would impact me every time I log in.

I will also no longer be supporting Sony titles on PC. Even if they release my holy grail Bloodborne, I'll pirate it and play it offline.

Fuck Sony forever, and stop trying to gatekeep hating a company over their shitty practices.
