@WolfJay they DID move their HQ to California, and I never said they hate Japan. They just tend to censor Japanese games coming out in the west. They also wouldn't allow Martha Is Dead to come out on their platform unless it was censored. Pointing to some examples where they haven't censored stuff doesn't take away the games they have censored despite not being required to by ESRB.

They've got a bit of a track record for it, that's why it comes up immediately when someone talks about Playstation. Their hypocrisy of letting some stuff fly for some studios that they don't for others, and that those studios are usually ones that are trying to promote "social awareness" is something people don't like this side of the fediverse.
