That Timelost Guy

@towelthetank @Diablo Have literally never done this but I will say it is super close hahaha

Dear @Diablo Team, If you would be so kind as to move this BS that would be great. I'm tired of misclicking and going back to my instanced location. Sincerely, Everyone who Plays Diablo 4

@statesminds @HazzadorGamin Not sure I said I am okay with it just that this has been a thing for a long time.

@PraedythFella @HazzadorGamin It is a problem. This should only be for games gained through subscription service. Like how are you okay with this

@GAMENREACTIONS @NikTek It's definitely a shitty practice don't get me wrong.

@PraedythFella @NikTek So have I, but that was rare and in between. But to each their own how they feel about it. I have never had to verify my licenses in the context like now. Just turned on the PS5 and some games are giving me the prompt still and some are not while offline. With respect.

The new DRM on the PlayStation update is a disgrace to gaming, Sony should make a statement whenever this PlayStation Support message is real or faked. This issue with this 30-Day Timer being applied to all new purchases isn't about having an active internet connection, but the concept of ownership. Sony is taking the rights away from users who purchase their games digitally. If you go offline for more than 30 days, you're locked from playing a game that you bought with your own money. Your console shouldn't require an active online internet connection to verify the purchase or the validity of a video-game that you've purchased previously in my opinion.

@chris_234__uhhh That would be amazing. Honestly I did give it a good go I've about 25 to 30 hours on Steam but I was getting my ass beat 😅

@PraedythFella That's fair. To this day I still wish this game had a single player campaign completely separate from the extraction mode.

I was expecting it to be a game I played for a bit, maybe 50ish hours and drop it and check in every now and then......I have 200 hours played as of today. So uh, yeah, Marathon exceeded my expectations.

@GAMENREACTIONS @NikTek When I owned a Sony console before I have had to restore licences on many occasions over the years.

@PraedythFella @NikTek When I purchased digital media (video games), I was able to play those games offline and never had to verify the license within or after 30 days. This is a first with the latest update.

@Hibzster The key word is licence, you never owned the game. Y'all played yourselves by not reading the TOS

I’m not even a gamer but what Sony is doing is so nasty. If you don’t play a game you own after 30 days, you lose license to it & they can charge you…they’re really trying to get rid of ownership

@StretchingStick @HazzadorGamin Your rights are that you own the licence, not the game. Read the TOS next time.

@Tenno_Deadpool @BSquuuaaad @HazzadorGamin The only stupid ones are people who still think they own digital games. Does it suck? Absolutely, but that's what everyone agreed to when they skipped their TOS screen.

@PraedythFella @BSquuuaaad @HazzadorGamin

@DarthMicroT This game free yet?

GGG drops a path of exile 2 teaser, 2 hours before diablo 4 expansion launch haha. This looks like expedition boss teaser to me

@drumerboi22 @MTashed Depends where you're living. It launches the same time globally.

@MTashed Why do people keep saying tonight? It launches on the 28th.

Diablo 4 tonight???? Haven't played since launch. Kinda curious if it is more fun

@MTashed Honestly I would recommend. I took a few seasons away and came back last week for the end of the season. It is in a much better state and looks to get even better with Lord of Hatred

@RealMarcFoxx I'm pretty sure this has been a thing for a long ass time. Besides the fact that people always assume they own their digital games when in fact they never did.

All the people that told me I was spreading fake news and misinformation can shut the hell up now.

@rumiiihere I'm not just fine with, I go out of my way to ensure it. People are fucking annoying.

Are you fine with people not liking you?

@NobRick88 @HazzadorGamin If you want to own your digital games buy from GOG on PC.

@NobRick88 @HazzadorGamin You didnt buy the game babe, you bought the licence for it read you TOS.

@KaiKai2492 Newsflash you NEVER paid for the games you paid for the licence. If this is such an issue for you you should have read the TOS in the first place

People really saying “just connect to the internet not a big deal” my brother in Christ that’s not the point. God forbid a natural disaster happens or you can’t pay your WiFi bill one month and just can’t play games you PAID for until you reconnect. It doesn’t matter if you have internet, it’s a matter of principle. You shouldn’t be okay with PS arbitrarily taking away access to games you spent your hard earned money on. The more comfortable you get with this the worse it will get. We’re frogs in the pot and they’re slowly raising the heat and some of yall aren’t noticing.

@B1gDaddyMarv When you turn your console back on just renew your licences. It's really a big nothing burger.

I hope this DRM issue with PlayStation isn't what it looks like. As someone who, at times, will go months without turning on my PS5, this could affect me. 😬

@Pupsker Connect to the internet to renew your licence every 30 days even a phone hot-spot will do. It's 2026 ffs. Besides nobody owns digital games on most platforms they're on anyway. GOG being the exception I'm aware of.

Dang, looks like the Sony 30 day internet connection DRM is real. Unfortunate times.
