You forgot Nintendo.
And Microsoft for that matter.
And Epic Games
And Blizzard
And SquirrelSoft
Sad, I like them before
Good thing I have the GOG offline installer already downloaded.
If you already bought you can still download it can’t you? I have a bunch of other delisted games that still work fine
Delisting it just means it isn’t being sold to new customers.
And you can actually still buy it there. Though for the now increased price.
I have it too, and I was patiently waiting for Forbidden West to show up on GOG too, guess it’s not gonna happen now, yo ho ho?
Even if I was a bazillionaire, I’d still be pirating Sony games out of principle
Along with everything else, I find it so annoying that these games that totally didn’t need a remaster get one, and so many great older games just begging for a remaster that woud rake in cash dont get one.
Because those need work. These are easy to slightly polish up and push as new game.
Ps5 has literally only one new exclusive after all these years?
They did it so they can sell more data from requiring a PSN account, also just more money from people buying it, I guess.
Concord remaster when?
Concord merch?
The Sony shit show continues.
Also if you bought the OG. You still can download and play it.
It’s funny that I could buy and play the original game, but not this remaster or the sequel. That’s because Sony doesn’t acknowledge that my country exists.
This original was already a privacy nightmare, even on GOG, which is why I was hesitant to buy it. Looks like I’m definitely pirating it now if I wanna play it. But hey, at least now we know why sony insisted on “remastering” it.
🏴☠️
Just pirate anything Sony puts out. This shit makes it clear that it’s not worth giving them a single dollar. And if we’re being really honest, all their games are super generic and very mid, you can just ignore them as a developer completely and you won’t miss out on anything.
HZD is anything but generic and mid.
It actually is just another open-world action game with crafting elements, they may have been rare once but now they’re a dime a dozen.
Ok.
Which website should I avoid to make sure I don’t fall for the pirate scam?
Do you smell the sweet scent of money made by amassing more data from you and selling it.
Hmmmmmmmmmm hmm!
Lol remastering a 2017 game, mega cash grab.
Fucking called it LOL
I knew this was the whole point of the “remaster”.
The original is still available on GoG.
I also REALLY hate how confusing the Steam store is. If you look up the original game, it does not say its delisted, it just has the Remastered bundle inside the listing, which is a completely different product.
So basically if I get it on GOG and block it from accessing the net, I’m good?
You don’t need to block anything. GoG just gives you the raw files with no DRM and even let’s you download and install earlier versions.
According to the other thread, the game asks for limited or full data collection anyway, so I was asking; maybe it’s just for performance analisys or smthg, but nowadays you can’t trust anyone.
I checked GOG as soon as I saw this post. Hopefully they don’t take that down, too.
If Sony pulls it, they pull it. GOG wouldn’t have any options, it’s not theirs to sell, they are just a storefront.
The advantage and point of the DRM-Free nature of GOG is that once you download a game, it stays on your computer even if the game is removed and made unavailable to download. And you are able to download an “offline installer” file which can be backed up and used to install the game at any point in time even without an internet connection. So buying it on GOG knowing it may be removed is still hugely advantageous.
To play devils advocate, semi-similar is true on Steam for the most part. Even though the original was pulled by Sony, you can still download and play it if you previously purchased it.
I do have an expansive offline library though, I admit. Though I’d also say that a company removing access to something you paid for is the most moral reason there is to pirate that something.
all they had to do was not force accounts. then they could join this club:
You just had to brag about your achievements.
it was more about showcasing my mental illness and how I can’t help punishing myself by playing games like old kingdom or old bioshock, or both borderlands. I also tried to do ori but now I have work burnout and gaming burnout. I wouldn’t actually feel inclined to double zero dawn as the game really is enough of a slog just to complete the main story and I really really don’t want to suffer any more.
Guess what I won’t be buying.
This is not true in the literal sense.
You cannot redeem HZD keys, and buy it as part of a bundle with both versions. They stopped selling it standalone.
So you can get the upgrade for $10 if you already have it, or wait for a sale on the bundle.
But in either case you can still play the original release without the PSN requirement even if bought after the remaster release.
For now
Well they have structured the Remaster as a DLC upgrade that requires the base game license.
So they would have to delist their new listing and create an entirely new release.
Honestly 99% chance they did it this way to preserve the review history of the original game on the Remaster.
Guess what. Athletic Female with a spoon has it too
