This is my exact reaction. The issue with HD2 was the bait and switch of adding the requirement at a later date, particularly since they had already sold copies in places where people literally could not make PSN accounts.

Not that I agree with Sony’s decision to require the account for GOW, but at least they’re being up front about it this time. If you don’t want the account, there are 500 billion other quality games you can buy that don’t require one.

Oh fuck oh shit

Same regime that outlawed posting pictures of Winnie the Pooh because he was being compared to their figurehead. With that context, the surprise should be…lessened.

Legitimately curious because I’m OOTL: why would Saudi Arabia want to destroy Twitter? My (admittedly uninformed) instinct says it would be a waste of their large investment and control over a platform ripe with potential for them to control narratives over their shitty PR for human rights abuses and other shit. Would it just be to prevent negative coverage of their actions from spreading?

Again, not arguing, just legitimately curious. I figured Twitter’s downfall would be really bad for them since they have sway over Musk and a vested interest in the platform.

As far as I understand from the article, by Chinese law what they’re accusing him of is a crime, so technically this is much, much stupider.
