Original on April 19th: DEMOCRACY, FREEDOM NEVER SLEEPS RAWWWWWWW

Edited on May 5th:
Sony, first, why? We had such a good thing going & you had to go ruin it, it was perfect but you just had to go & blow it up. You, & your pride & your ego. Just the fact you could made it passive or to get a reward instead, a helmet or even some super credits, maybe samples even. However, that was not done. Everyone just wanted to play but now it's locked to a fraction of the world just because they can't get PSN, it wouldn't be an issue if your data breaches & region lock wasn't a problem, yes maybe a few would still not play because of a third party, but was this the cognitive choice? Selling us something beautiful, something that was uniting the world of Divers, spreading democracy to all our star systems, was it that hard to keep? Not even A FULL MONTH HAS PASSED SINCE THE RELEASE ON STEAM, then you pull the rug from us. 10 hours, 20 hours, even some with 200+ hours on here, we were dedicated, and some of us are still hopeful, let's hope it doesn't amount to emptiness. You've reaped what you sowed, we don't stand for it, we like getting respect instead of being undermined by a corp.
Second, Developers, thank you. You made something that the whole internet has been wanting for YEARS. A game that has humor, action, & actual love put into it. You didn't baby us, but made us try to gain skill in the game from work, no one does that anymore. I wish that the PSN didn't have to happen this way. However, reality doesn't work that way, so here is to a big hope. I hope that you all can make more amazing games, and bring us your vision. I know I'll be there when the dust settles out, you did the best you could with what you were given, I have to say, it was a 'Hell' of a ride. See you on the other side, Maybe we'll all dive again soon, on one final stand. See you around Joel, overseer, Generic Diver signing off till next time.

I have gone back onto the game after they reverted the two factor required, however, the game is still not in a state we would love to see. Lots of recent changes along with some auto increase of difficulty within the difficulties themselves makes this game seem like a smaller shy version of the democracy driven virtue that was at the beginning of this month. Lots of people are already falling off from the game where now major orders might not succeed at record pace like before, or even if they get the chance to do so. This game is still fun by all means, either with friends or just going it alone. BUT that doesn't exclude the issues that are still around on this game, ones continue to this day after patches or bug fixes, not to mention the other countries who still are having trouble. Yes, those other countries still cannot play the game they payed for, which is now region locked & many who can't get refunds over it. Is it pushing it to try & open up into the 117 of those countries, Yes, but it is better in order to have this game be with everyone going for one purpose: MANAGED. DEMOCRACY. Until then the issues are fixed or some work around is taken care of, I will only be completing the achievements & then not playing until then.
