The problem is that they sold the game in a lot of countries where you couldn't register a PSN account, including a few countries in the EU. In specific cases like Ukraine you have to own the console to be able to register a PSN account.
They've changed the Steam game entry to not allow selling in those countries, but some people from them already bought the game. PSN is only available in like 1/3 of all the countries Steam supports. And if you use a VPN or something, they can ban you for breaking ToS.

- polski-g 2y agoIts not cool to get a ban from any game unless they give you a refund.
- seattle_spring 2y agoIf the ban was for cheating, then it's very much "cool". Cheating in an online game should earn you a ban from all online games, period. Any other argument is akin to saying "people who do not cheat deserve a worse experience than those who do."
- DangitBobby 2y ago> Cheating in an online game should earn you a ban from all online games, period. That implies a level of consolidation and control that I'm definitely not comfortable with. No, I don't think botting in RuneScape should mean I can't play Helldivers 2.
- seattle_spring 2y ago> No, I don’t think botting in RuneScape should mean I can’t play Helldivers 2. I sure do. “That guy steals from my neighbor all of the time, but I’m sure he’ll leave your stuff alone.”
- seattle_spring 2y agoWhy would someone be banned from PSN? If it's for cheating, then removing them from all available online communities is a purely positive consequence.
