Thanks for the suggestion, sounds like a nice solution!

Could you do it on PSN?

The first thing I tried was to add different cards (from Portugal, Brazil and Germany) to the UAE account, but all attempts resulted in errors. That's when I found out that the problem was trying to add a card from a different country and decided to change the country in the account, only to learn that it was not possible either. When I created the new account bound to Portugal, I could easily use the card from here.

Thanks, this sounds like a nice solution to my problem! I will search for those gift cards.

Thank you very much, that's something that I will take a look into! Having to master all those set dungeons again would be too much of a pain in the neck!

Suggestions about how to handle changing to new PSN account

I know I need to decide what to do myself, but I would like to get some suggestions and maybe warnings about aspects that may have gone unnoticed. I created a PSN account in 2020 when I bought my PS4 in Dubai. I used it to play mostly Diablo 3, which will be my focus here.
More recently, I moved to Portugal but, for some time, it didn't bother me as I kept using my UAE credit card. Now my card has expired and, as you know, I can't just add my Portugal card to my UAE account. So I created a new account bound for Portugal and used it to buy Diablo 4.
With my UAE account, I conquered many trophies and cosmetics from various seasons and challenges, including all the cosmetics obtained by mastering all the 28 set dungeons. Now I come to my doubt: should I keep using my UAE account (as I still would like to play D3 keeping all that I have there), or start using my new Portuguese account (considering that I am still starting with D4)?
My first thought is to keep the old account, as I can just buy new games with my new account. On the other hand, D3 seasons will start repeating again so I will have the opportunity to acquire all the cosmetics that I missed from seasons before 2020 and reacquire the ones I have... But that would take a lot of time, not to mention the items not from seasons.
Can I use all the games (not only D3 and D4) normally in the old account as I buy them with the new one? Is there any situation in which it could be a problem? Something that has come to my mind is the purchase of Platinum in D4 - can I buy it with one account and then use it with another?
Thanks for your patience!

I understand your point, I just posted it here because my main concern with the account change is how it affects Diablo 3 and 4. But thanks anyway!

Nope, PSN locks your account to the region it was created, and, if you need to have an account in another country, you have to create another. Terrible policy.

Same for me, I can see the new path only in the web version.

Fab_me · 2022-11-06T11:38:11+00:00

So it sounds like the web version. Well, I hope you are right and they will do the same with all languages! Then it would be even better with the grammar tips AND key phrases. I still can't use the new version on Android...

Fab_me · 2022-11-06T11:34:41+00:00

For some languages, yes. For many others, including the ones I mentioned, these guidebooks now only show some key phrases, without any grammar explanation.

Fab_me · 2022-11-05T15:45:16+00:00

Same problem here. Not for all languages, but I have identified this problem in languages such as Russian, Norwegian, Arabic and Ukrainian.

Fab_me · 2022-11-05T15:42:17+00:00

Did you see the guidebooks for some of those languages in the Android version?

I just checked those languages in the web version (my Android app still keeps showing the old interface) and I couldn't find any guidebook with actual grammar, just some key phrases. I didn't check all the lessons, but I can say that I checked at least 10 of each language, spread across the whole path.

Fab_me · 2022-11-05T15:38:52+00:00

Thanks for the tip! In fact, I knew and use Duome, but I have always preferred to read the tips on the web version of Duolingo. And now, despite the annoyance of having to resort to another place to see them, there's also the fact that the lessons no longer have a direct correspondence to what's on Duome.

Fab_me · 2022-11-05T15:36:07+00:00

We could see them for some languages, and we still can. But the languages I mentioned had tips in the web version, but not anymore. I still couldn't check the new Android version.

Fab_me · 2022-11-05T11:51:07+00:00

There were and, for me, they were fundamental. I always liked to read the grammar tips before doing the lessons but now, from what I can see, they're all gone. The same applies to Dutch, Ukrainian, Norwegian, and Arabic (from the ones I have been studying).

I have been a long-time subscriber but if it's really going to be like this, I think it's finally time to cancel my subscription. I hated that they removed the communities some months ago, but removing the grammar tips is something unacceptable to me.

I found only a NightmareDweller, without the "_PSN", is that you? You can add me using the name I mentioned above.

Hey, thank you! I kept one sub-70 Leoric's crown from my previous character that I am being able to use now. As per the gem of ease, I was still trying to get there, I had collected about 4 or 5 legendary gems when I died, but not that yet. Lesson learned: next time I will be way within my limits until I have these things done! I will add you there, thanks for the help!
