  • Helldivers 2 released to overwhelmingly positive reception due to its great gameplay, and lack of microtransactions. They had the gaming community in their hand and the Sony ruined it. They're forcing all players on PC to create and link a Playstation account to their steam account in order to keep playing. This has led to plenty of negative feedback and reviews on the games store page. The game will not be accessible to those who do not link their accounts by June 4th.

    Sony is just jealous that one of their games is more popular on PC than their own platform

    The worst part is that psn is not available in more than half of countries such as mine. A lot of people can't legally create a psn account and even if we do with vpn, sony can ban all these accounts according to their terms of services. Helldivers 2 is such a great community, never ever I met any griefers or toxicity, there is no need for the bullshit they trying to sell us about safety and banning griefers. If arrowhead will not be able to do something about countries that can't have a psn account, that might be last month playing with you boys.

    I think you the nail in the head at the end of the video. The game has been out for long enough for everyone to reach the plateau of interest in which they were happy enough with the game as it was, they put a lot of hours into it, but as a live service they are now entering the into the "player retention" part of the game's life and they have to put in the effort to keep the players engaged.
    Perfect timing to come up with this, just in time for ppl to say "oh well, it was great while it lasted, lets play something else and if i can get a refund, even better"

      You just need an account, but in some countries PSN is not available making it suddenly unplayable for a lot of people.
      I already have a PSN linked to my Steam so its not a big deal for me, but I understand the problem here and I hope Sony gets rid of it again. (but doubt they will)

  • @Thoran666

    The account linking was mandatory 2 months ago when I bought the game so this wasn't a problem for me and my friends.
    That said, it's completly fucked up how some Sony managers forgot that PSN doesn't exist in many countries and basically bans a huge part of their player base.

    Yeah i quit, I don't necessarily hate the idea of linking accounts when it's useful or saves me time, but linking to sony as a PC gamer does exactly nothing good for me and only opens me up to another avenue of security problems that i just don't want to be bothered with. So Thank you for the fun times Helldivers 2 but goodbye.

    Maybe I just don't get it...I like the game enough that making a free PSN account, while inconvenient and asinine, is not going to prevent me from playing it. Arrowhead has to play by Sony's rules, so unfortunately in order to support AH (which I would very much like to do) I must also support Sony. Necessary evil I guess.

      It isn't wrong to support Arrowhead. What is wrong that account linking will remove players who cannot create a psn account because their country is not part of the network.
      Even with VPN, Sony has the right to ban your account according to their TOS.

      And then your account gets hacked they ban you and since it's linked to your steam account you now still can't play the game. And if you do not use a burner you risk throwing your personal info into the Ether. That aside from the data logging and their past bullshit.

      The security risk is like putting 2 doors on opposite sides of 1 jail cell. Its so much easier to fuck with peoples accounts now, and its worse because if you get through one you get through both. So, the security risk is a big issue.
      And besides that, some people cant even get psn and are literally just locked out of the game they paid for, because they live in asia, africa, western europe etc.
