Sony fails to outlast PR disaster over disc abandonment. Players continue to remind the company at every opportunity

The "NO DISC NO BUY" flash mob continues.

Another State of Play presentation was supposed to delight PlayStation owners with new trailers and announcements. However, instead of discussing upcoming hits, viewers of the YouTube and Twitch broadcasts witnessed a massive flash mob of discontent. From the first minutes to the very end of the broadcast, chats were filled with identical messages: "NO DISC NO BUY" and "WE WANT DESTINY 3".

Although Sony's internal statistics show that the vast majority of sales already come from digital format, the strength of the protest indicates a deep rift between the platform holder and a part of its loyal audience. Given the uncompromising stance of the leadership, these acts of digital resistance are likely to remain a serious problem for PlayStation's image for a long time.
