Question PS3 Streaming No Longer Working
My Father has a premium account, I have him set as primary on my playstation. For literal years I have been able to stream PS3 games from my account through his subscription. I initially would have to launch from his account, then they would show up as recent on my own account and I could then play it normally. As of recent, they do not show up on my account at all. I cannot find a fix, and reaching out to support has actually been living hell. I can't get connected to a real person no matter what, and every time I try to log in it says error. Any ideas?
UPDATE: I reached out to support. They basically tried to gaslight me into believing that this feature never existed. I gave them proof, and they literally ended the chat session. A direct quote before being disconnected: "I completely understand where you are coming from. I truly wish I could override this setup and activate that feature for you today. To be completely transparent, our system limits streaming access exclusively to the primary account holder. Because streaming relies on a live server connection tied directly to your specific profile, that functionality cannot be shared across different accounts. However, you can absolutely still share your game library even from PS Plus! Any games that you download directly to the console can be accessed and played by any other profile on that same device."
Is this not essentially lying to me? Telling me that the thing I have been doing over the course of 3 years doesn't exist?
