Unfair Monetary Advantages to all platforms except PSN

Personally here my opinion is that GGG should allow a one-time copying over of Sony MTX to PC but not the other way round. I don't see how this would really affect them at all; nothing is changing on the Sony side, GGG would just be giving a bunch of "free" MTX to users on a platform completely unrelated to Sony.
I can see how there would be issues transfering PC MTX to the Sony platform if Sony are trying to dig their greedy fingers too deep into the pot, and I can also see how a continued "one way avenue" of transfering MTX from Sony to PC would be a massive headache from a technical perspective. But yeah, final verdict I don't blame GGG for this overall, but there's literally nothing stopping them doing a one-time "copying" of MTX to the PC platform for PS4 / PS5 players.

" I think Sony's reasoning behind not letting people transfer over is that they want to force people to continue to play POE on their platform instead of PC because those people don't want to throw away the money already spent. By allowing them to effectively transfer off it they won't get any future POE income from them because they'll be playing on PC instead. This is just speculation but I doubt GGG can do what you're suggesting without having to pay Sony a massive overinflated sum in compensation or get kicked off the platform.

" Perhaps, and if that is the case then Sony truly are asshats. I was laboring under the assumption that they likely just wanted a cut of any MTX sales so didn't want people to be able to buy outside of their store and then use on their platform. If this really is a measure designed to essentially just blackmail people into staying on their platform then that's far more egregious. Souls along a conduit of blood, from one vessel to the next.

I never saw a reason to play this game on playstation.
Still don't. |

I love the guys that say "I've spent xxxx amount of thousands and thousands of dollars". Then you look next to their name and only seen one or two supporter packs.

" May or may not be relevant to this thread, but supporter badges can be turned on or off freely, I usually have mine off but I'll turn them on for a bit to prove a point :) Souls along a conduit of blood, from one vessel to the next.

I can feel the rage emanating from this post and it fulfills me.

" I've spent ~$1000USD and don't have that many supporter packs. Your rage is palpable. |

I'm assuming you have both a PC and a PS5.
And your upset because your PS5 POE1 purchases don't transfer to PC for POE2. If its the other way around (PC-->PS5) your anger is REALLY misplaced. Suggestions:
Spoiler
1. Sell your PS5 - its the holidays it'll sell fast
2. Go to the SONY forums and vent your frustrations there (this is a SONY issue NOT GGG) and note you are selling your PS5 and will no longer be supporting PS. 3. Use some of the monies to purchase ONE $60 supporter pack that will let you buy all of the stash tab you really need for BOTH POE1 and POE2 on PC. 4. As for MTX especially from drops that you can no longer get - it sucks I hate it for you. If you can repurchase the ones you REALLY liked or just look at the newer ones for POE2. And even without MTX the characters look INSANE 5. If you had digital purchases on PS5 use some of the money from selling to repurchase the games you REALLY want - steam will have a huge sale very soon. 6. Most importantly don't let your current emotions effect your standing with GGG - you're passionate don't let that be your undoing and get you banned. I've lost control of the controls...
