Laughing__Man_ on April 27, 2026 12:16 am You failed to mention that he removes his CMOS battery. Which plays a part in playing your digital games offline. Edit: Does he have his console set as home? All we see him do is hold up a little CMOS battery, launch a game and slam on shitty soundboard stuff. I am not watching an entire stream of this guy, dude defines what I hate in streamers. Edit again: So how is he “Testing” The “DRM” Thing if it has not been 30 days?
The_Sir_Galahad on April 27, 2026 12:17 am I’m petty sure they did this because the console key was leaked not too long ago and people have been unlocking their PS5s.
Tadpole-Jackson on April 27, 2026 12:25 am I’m confused, hasn’t the system always worked the same way, even back on PS4? Disconnect from the internet for a long time and digital game licenses would expire until you connect again (assuming the console is Primary) What is trying to be proven? That after 30 days, digital games lock? That’s not new
