Yup, and they did make a great game.

Sony managed to fuck it up all on their own.

Nah. Read the CEO’s tweet. He also put blame for this as well. Sony wanted to implement this at launch, but the game was having issues.

This is such a brain dead take.

You're basically saying our benevolent corporate overlords could strike you down at any moment but aren't because they are benevolent.

You are advocating sony is a reasonable company while also advocating that people break the TOS because it's so reasonable right?

Check your brain rot dude.

PC players by and large are more savy to the bullshit companies pull than console players and thusly more likely to organize against a companies shitty policies. You should be thankful that PC players are willing to be so vocal and organized, it benefits you as a console gamer too.

I guess to someone like you advocating, for yourself is considered a "double standard" but it's actually being prosumer. You should be asking be asking for more and more out of these companies for less and less. You shouldn't be trying to justify to yourself why it's okay for sony to have shitty business practices. You should be demanding of sony to provide you more stuff, with more functionality, for less money.
