Never bend the knee to Sony executives. It will always end in disaster.

[electroeel]

Somebody on the reddit said that they were talking to a law firm, and they said that there were good grounds for a lawsuit against SONY for this change. I hope our boy can do something about this because SONY will only get worse if this goes without answer

[buttermanaws]

The fact they changed the terms of service truly tells me that they are doing this as a last minute decision after seeing how big the game has gotten

[daviddamasceno]

You really can not trust Sony. Not even on PC.

[echoesofmalachor]

The stealth change in the FAQ’s might be the most important catch since this all kicked off. Kudos for whoever spotted that.

Sony try not shove their bad policies into everything (IMPOSSIBLE CHALLENGE)

[kccustodes]

It is not just about making a PSN account but linking my Steam account to PSN. This gives Sony access to my Steam account forever. FOREVER

[Mr.V-]

As a lifelong Sony user I can confirm that the PC players have all right not to make a PSN account been dealing with that since hackers found out that Sony's main accounts password was password

[igniskitsune]

While I wouldn’t mind linking my PSN account to a game, it’s BS that they waited 4 months after release to do this. And it’s another problem when it’s a worldwide release but countries with no access to PSN can no longer play. Plus if you use a VPN, it’ll be a ban.

People are right to be mad and it’s all on Sony who want to say “Look at all the growth we’ve gotten with new PlayStation accounts!”

The way Misty has interacted with fans feels like she was actively trying to sabotage the game. I'm not surprised all her info was deleted, she was probably fired for misconduct and Spitz 180 was probably him correcting his behavior after that happened.

[The_Phoenix_Saga]

Well Sony went from bad to worse... and to think they were the dominant brand once upon a time...

[PlayerOne.StartGame]

Why are people even debating if this is a Sony idea? Its clearly signed at the bottom of the post "Sony Interactive Entertainment".

[ComposedSage]

The players have every right to call this out. It’s idiocy to think you have to make an account for PSN if you’re a PC player in order to play this. Why they did this to themselves is very sad.

(Edit: It’s incredible how idiotic some of you are in this section. Seriously it should be studied the levels of shilling that’s being done here. I don’t place all the blame on Arrowhead however they did play their part in this and we’ve seen the detrimental practices Sony does. AH is not without fault. They love to cause issues where there didn’t need to be and the fact that signing in to their network has been optional. Not a requirement until recently for this. The players are the ones who got affected cuz this didn’t need to happen whatsoever.

The choice of what to do is up to you but arguing back n forth with folks here will do nothing for you. Then again it’s your time to waste if this is what you’ve decided to do.)

[bumblebee]

Because Sony has such a good record of keeping security tight

[AspieMemoires]

Anything touched by big Corpo, turns to garbage.
They’re so out of touch with gamers.

[alleosussquirt]

Spitz always does this, he needs to be fired all he does is act like a jerk and then come back after the devs force him to.

[HDcamel]

It's actually going to be much worse for Sony in the long run. Every SCE game that comes to Steam now will have fewer sales because no one will trust them not to pull this stunt again.

[Dorian_Scott]

This is why you don't do business with Sony.

[SoraKairiLeonhartfan]

So this is how managed democracy falls...

...finish the reference as thematically appropriate.

[garybicknell]

Even if they fully reverse this particular disasterous decision how is any player supposed to trust anything from this company ever again with them talking out of both sides throughout this debacle.
