    "Make an account" -aka We are going to make you login to maintain access to the game and then our ToS and this account setup will give us a "legal" and physical way to rip it from you when we don't want to support it anymore.

      I feel your pain... One time I bought a physical copy of a game on launch (can't recall the name but it was an mmo I waited for a long time) that required you to sign up in the website to finish download, the game to log in and then create and login on a gameguard account and some other anti - cheat program they had. And none saved your passwords.
      I learned valuable lesson though... Never buy a game on launch, always look for reviews first.

      The language used when they rolled the change back was worded in such a a way that it’s likely not the last time they’re going to try this nonsense, and they also still went ahead and blocked all those countries that would have been effected by the PSN requirement anyway. Not so fixed for them, I’d say.
      What they actually did was fool everyone into switching their review back to positive, while still screwing over a lot of the potential customer base for the game. If I’m not mistaken, Arrow Head are still fighting with Sony over that.

      It's not the act of signing up that's the problem (though it is annoying), it's the fact that access to the game you spent money on is now dependent on an account tied to the publisher's/ a third party server that could be shut down at any time without prior warning and a vague and ever changing TOS that can get you permanently banned for anything you say, do, or post even retroactively.
