Rockstar reportedly told Sony to remove GTA VI's branding from the PlayStation App after the disc controversy got too hot
Sony killed physical discs for all PlayStation games starting January 2028.
The backlash was instant.
Politicians calling for regulation. KFC and Domino's publicly roasting them. The internet turned on Sony overnight.
A week ago Sony had GTA VI everywhere.
App icon changed. PS5 dashboard taken over. Store completely redesigned. No PlayStation game has ever gotten that treatment.
Now all of it is quietly gone.
When Rockstar doesn't want to be associated with your decisions you know it's bad.
This is how they steal black welt from black family. They use the law to confiscate black land and give it to white corporation.. They get ready to lock up a black family for refusing to give up their land to a railroad company..
"larp this larp that" lets really talk about how everyone is larping as a black person nowadays
"saxophones getting louder" you dont even know what that means or what movie thats from omg
This is actually a serious issue for fantasy writers as well. A few years back I was pitching a seven book dark fantasy series to agents, and the most common question they asked was “is the series finished?” Despite having THREE BOOKS finished, every agent passed on it because “these days publishers aren’t likely to take chances on a long series that isn’t mostly completed.”
Though no one ever explicitly said why, the implied blame for this newfound hesitancy rested on George R.R. Martin’s shoulders.
