to the creator who feels like giving up: don't, we see you

@kacyfaevt The reality is that if they weren't going to use AI they would just search art on boorus. People who are price adverse don't just suddenly start paying.
English
“I use generative AI because I’m too broke to afford art”
But there’s literally thousands of artists EVERYWHERE that can do amazing art for under $20… even less if they are just starting out doing commissions.
Just because you’re too lazy to save up the money to pay a real artist doesn’t mean you can justify using AI for art. Simple as that. 🤷♀️

@nealmohan @YouTube @dtayknown @ClickForTaz @Jesser @sameckholm @JennyHoyosLOL This just rings hollow after you're demonetizing everyone

Creators are, and always will be, at the core of everything we do. They are the new stars and studios, redefining entertainment and building next-generation media companies.
At last week’s @YouTube Creator Summit in Ojai, we brought our creator community together to share ideas, learn from each other, and talk about the future of the creator economy.
Thank you to every creator who joined us and to the YouTube team who pulled together an inspiring summit.

@TheOmegaLiberal @nan0werx @xonebros But they'll do that anyway. The plan out all these moves to determine the amount of assmad from their customers. Your outrage has been determined to be inefficient to overturn it.

The DRM outrage is louder than the actual problem.
Real question is how many PS5s are offline for 30 straight days?
Sony knows the number. They wouldn’t roll this out if it hurt a meaningful chunk of their userbase. They’d eat the PR disaster harder than anyone if it did.
Everyone also keeps running the hypothetical “what if Sony’s servers go down” as if Sony hasn’t thought about it.
That’s literally the only thing keeping this honest. They have more to lose than we do.
If it goes down, we lose access to games. Sony faces lawsuits, headlines, and a damaged brand right before the next console launch.
Also, we already live inside DRM. Phones, streaming, the software on every device we own. Nobody’s writing outrage posts about it. We accepted it everywhere else.
Most of the people angry about this are tweeting it from a phone, on a network, through an app, all of which run on DRM.
The argument made sense once, but it just doesn’t anymore.
Lance McDonald@manfightdragon
Hugely terrible DRM has now been rolled out to all PS4 and PS5 digital games. Every digital game you buy now requires an online check-in every 30 days. If you buy a digital game and don't connect your console to the internet for 30 days, your license will be removed.

@AmoebaTheGreasy @TheQuartering YOU ARE A DISGRACE QUARTERING! LOSE EVERYTHING!!

It’s took @TheQuartering roughly 25 minutes to ChatGPT research that his coffee is in violation of FDA regulations. “It was an oversight” is the theme of this guys whole online presence.

@Nerderaid @thememelizard Basically people are bunkered and convinced that women want to come and take sexy women out of games... and the problem is they have not been wrong in the past. Sexy games are almost nonexistent outside of gachas like you used to find a game with cleavage everywhere you looked.

@thememelizard I'm a woman and if I posted this, why would I trick someone? I don't get paid on here, I don't do OF, and I don't do shit other than game.

Nikke is for men
LADs is for women
It's okay for men to have their space and okay for women to have ours. We do cross over but who are women to say anything about Nikke being "objectification" while the men in LADs are peak objectified?
English
@YouTubeCreators But I can't because I'll be demonetized.

@xonebros "a negligible amount of people will be negatively effected by Sonys greedy choices, so we shouldnt care....and honestly we should even help them with the lube, its only fair!"
What's negligible for you? How many people does an anti-consumer tactic have to effect before you care?

@master1ous @MadRhetoric @TheActMan_YT there's literally no proof here bro just an image. did you just get baited that easily?

>Be Sony
>Win the 2013 console war because of a 21 second video
>forget you did that
>embrace the same DRM policies that you fought against in order to win said console war
>Proceed to dump explosive diarrhea on your fanbase in 2026

@Andywarski Yo I just want to thank you and PPP because I had my headphones set to mono for two weeks without realizing it. Then the Jer trump video you put on let me know about it and now I have stereo sound again lol

@ForWhatItsWor12 @TheDutchRuler @LarryJones Why are you supporting a broken system just because it's the way things are?
English
@TheDutchRuler @LarryJones No one is forcing you to eat where you have to tip. The restaurant owner decides how the business is run. If you’re too cheap to tip, stay home & eat, go to a restaurant where you don’t tip or be an asshole & don’t tip at a restaurant that has tips. The choice is yours.
English
Can we stop saying " if you can’t afford to tip you can’t afford to dine out!"
We need to be saying, "If a restaurant can’t pay its employees a livable wage without depending on the generosity of customers then they can’t afford to own a business!”

@Maekar1337 @MadRhetoric @TheActMan_YT Maekar, it's rage bait. This new broke and was debunked over like 12 hours. Expect it to be pervasive for at least a day or 2 because of news cycles.
English
@MadRhetoric @PrincessLayana @TheActMan_YT How is it damage control when this is tested and confirmed
English
Listen.
I am not simping for Sony ffs. It is annoying that we have to deal with this nonsense. But if the anti-piracy (and this is why it exists, not some 'you will own nothing' nonsense) measure literally will effect maybe a hundred people in the lifetime of Playstation, why bitch?

@NoSaltAllPepper @PrincessLayana @Beastiarii @TRIPSTER0 No people are upset about an inevitable situation an unknown amount of time down the road that is being created for no benefit to any of us.

@Oofwav3 @Soron16 @Jennie_kim_When @GiveMeBanHammer @imajanitor Also we've literally seen this fall. DOOM 2016 and DOOM Eternal were peak, but Doom The Dark Ages was complete trash.
English
@Soron16 @Jennie_kim_When @GiveMeBanHammer @imajanitor Play Oblivion on max difficulty. Then play whatever you think is the hardest souls game.
Tell me, which is a more enjoyable experience?
English
Sure, but also note there’s two sides to this. Fair is fair.
Don’t deliberately choose to play a game that its devs intended to be a challenging experience and is marketed as such…
Then get upset that the game is “too hard” and pressure or demand the devs to make it easier for you.
You can choose your games that have an Easy mode, but let devs make their hard games without having to consider difficulty if they don’t want to.
Long story short - play what you want, lets other play what they want, and let devs make what they want.

Do you agree with Diana?

@AmericanTimdog you're not up to date little bro. It was debunked. x.com/nib95_/status/…

So ResetEra user Andshrew and now also confirmed by DoesItPlay, appear to have figured out what's going on with #PlayStation's DRM. The good news is it's only a temporary DRM, not permanent. Here's how it works. When you buy a digital game, you are issued a temporary 30 day license for offline play. This license automatically transitions to a permanent license that will be free from future online check-ins, any time you connect after the 15th day of ownership, just after the 14 day refund window. But you have to log in or be connected to the internet for it to switch. You will not lose the license to the game if don't connect within or after the 30 day temporary license window, but you will be unable to play the game after 30 days, till you do, after which it'll turn into an indefinite DRM free license. Previously you'd be given an indefinite offline play license from the get go. So why did they implement this? It's possible people found an exploit where they could grab the indefinite license file for a game using an exploitable console, and then refund the purchase so they got the game for free. Hence Sony's current method of mitigating said issue is by time limiting the initial license issued. By issuing a temporary licence during the refund window, users can no longer pirate a permanent license and simply refund the game. As long as you log in any time a day after the 14 day refund window of any digital game purchase, it will turn into a permanent DRM free digital licence. At least this is what these two users have investigated and concluded. ResetEra link. #post-154305715" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">resetera.com/threads/sonys-…

I was told it was a bug first and now it’s just a refund issue. Sony no official statement. Everyone on Sony side acting absolutely strange when if this was xbox they lose their mind. I call it how it is.
If this was Xbox I’d say they were dead and didn’t learn their lesson

@AmericanTimdog @shapeformer Tim it was found that it's only a refund protection man

@MugenLord No, because steam isn't a publicly traded company. That's the difference and how they've been consumer friendly for so long.
English
That is why competition is important. XBOX was slammed for something similar during the XBOX 1. I said the PS4 would do the same thing if the XBOX One was successful with its DRM policy. This is why I always advocate for Physical media, no matter what.
Options in how we choose to play our games are a good thing, but right now, convenience has played a role. Before anyone starts glazing over Steam and says, "Just go PC, bro," is exactly what they want.
They want to herd everyone over to these digital game storefronts, where they can begin dictating how we play our games. Don't think for once that Steam and other storefronts won't switch up on gamers if the opportunity presents itself.
Rob (Ro2R)@Ruleof2Review
Catching up on the PlayStation DRM drama. MADNESS. But for those of us paying attention it’s been heading this way for a long time. This is Xbox 2013 all over again except many don’t realize that they’ve already been complicit in this trash for years. PHYSICAL. GAMING. FOREVER.
