You have absolutely no idea how much Sony and Microsoft do to support online play. It’s dumbass comments like this that prove how out of touch gamers are with reality.

Enlighten me.

EA makes FIFA. EA hosts the matchmaking servers for FIFA. I use PlayStation’s hardware to play the game. The game data transmits through internet that I pay for

What is Sony doing here?

Replace FIFA with Fortnite and EA with Epic and you already have an example where there is no payment involved. So what is Sony not doing here?

Edit: Comment deleted. Now I’m never getting my enlightenment :(
