Erm... What am I missing about Helldivers 2? I don't own it so I'm not in the loop.

EDIT: nvm, found the answer in a different post. Probably should have looked before asking.

The publisher, Sony is now requiring you link a psn account to play. Apparently there is no psn in quite a few countries, and because of Sony’s frequent data breaches people do not want a psn account.

Nothing wrong with asking honest questions. The point of this place is to foster discussion and community and sometimes that involves helping someone get up to speed.

Yeah that's something that always irritated the shit outta me at reddit when people would say take two seconds to Google. These places are social media the point is to interact to an extent. Don't worry about asking easy questions, Lemmy has been way more chill about it so far.

Especially if you don't know what exactly to search on Google, a day later the things people are saying might be abstract of the thing that is happening so you don't know what is the right thing to search for.

The way Google search is right now, it's just going to give you a bunch of ads.

There's so many people who dismiss honest questions because they've been asked/answered elsewhere. You're being disingenuous here by taking that stance.

[–] Ashyr@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I’m so confused. How am I being disingenuous?

[–] ModsAreCopsACAB@lemm.ee -3 points 7 months ago

You're acting like it's a given that people will reply and help, when the most likely scenario is that the person asking the question will be dismissed or ignored.

You are the part of reddit/lemmy people make skits about xD

God forbid someone be a realist instead of living an idealistic fantasy.
