Sony removed Helldivers 2 from sale in countries where PSN is not available. For example whole CIS region.

Here are a few discord comments about the situation from the Helldivers 2 discord:
Wow, they're really burning down all of that good will, huh? It's like a car crash, you can't help but to keep looking at it.
Im totally with arrowhead here. I wasnt aware of PSN being banned in countries either and at least theyre trying their best to make it right again. I dont think theyre burning goodwill, sony is though.
I'm with Arrowhead as well, none of this shit is coming from them, it's coming from Sony. The most you can criticize them for is partnering with Sony in the first place.
Considering this and No Man’s Sky having to spend YEARS clawing back good will, I think the lesson here is “don’t make deals with AAA publishers”.
