Sony has perhaps acted quicker in time to save what we call, an ‘unprecedented’ situation. With all that has been going on, it’s probably not the right time. For something as big as PlayStation 5, Sony does not want a marketing disaster. Right now, the situation is volatile enough for people to ignore something like this.
In times like this, standing in solidarity is the best one can do. Instead of capitalism, humanity should have its time. Sony understands that perfectly well. Recently they shifted the reveal showcase date for PlayStation 5 games. Without any proper measures to consolidate what everyone has lost, it is probably for the best.
For now, the best we can hope for as a gaming community is that people limit violence to the videogames. The world outside is burning and is not as dreamy as in PS5. However, that’s where the importance of playing games lies. To get rid of all that negativity.
