No matter how poorly thought Sony's international release plan is for PC, that's far easier to assume brief incompetence than malice around. Firing people who made a GOTY is a whole different level of evil.
They did it a second time, so what is it now? Dependable incompetence?
What did they do twice?
There’s been one debacle based around PSN, as a service, only being available in certain countries, and Helldivers initially launching in others to simplify their launch.
As of yet, I could believe there are Sony execs that didn’t even realize such a gap existed for their PC releases, and are still deciding what they can legally do. (Premiering their service in new territories isn’t simple, and a lot of their PC investment, plus their multiplayer workings, might be based around the account expectations)
