It's not fair the developers take the heat for this. We should learn to find the right people to complain to.

If the high-ups at Arrowhead knew and made that decision anyway, it's squarely on them, full stop.

Sure, but if I put myself in their shoes, what better options did they have?

Easy: Don't be a greedy asshole and don't sell in regions with no PSN support.

I can fully understand the agreement between the two parties was "also requires a psn account" while AH being completely unaware that getting a PSN account is so restrictive.

Sony likely didnt explicitly add that the game cannot be sold in regions where they can't create an account.

Edit: or the didn't explicitly state which regions a psn account CAN be created in.
