I can somewhat understand the logic behind it with multiplayer titles, but for a fully single player game like GOW: Ragnarok it makes absolutely no sense.
Yemesis
It worked really well on Helldivers 2 /s
Christianman88
I guess I’m pirating this one too.

Time to set sail for freer Pasteur’s

Well, at least they warned everyone beforehand this time. If you don’t want a PSN account, just don’t buy the games.

I’ll have to pirate simply because I cannot create a PSN account in my country. Can’t judge me.
SmellsLikeBInHere
Maaaan I only need one account… The one on the torrent site I am finding myself using more and more….
Sculpdozer
No they dont. Yarrr.

It’s funny how every big publisher has to go through this song and dance of “I’ll create this extra account and people will just be ok with it”
Then sales dip, people get mad, it causes the publisher problems and we come full circle.
EA created it’s own launcher, made it pretty good – removed their games from steam- didn’t make their launcher any better, it got worse- they come back to steam- their launcher gets worse yet as they ‘reboot it’. Now they removed the EA Play requirement from at least one title and seemingly are doing more.
Ubisoft went through this same song and dance.
But I’m sure it’ll go better for Sony. Right? . . . RIGHT!?
Did not Sony said few days ago that they had understand the public reviews after helldiver and ghost of Tsushima ?

I mean lets be real here, the most offensive isn’t even that you can’t have a PSN account globally, the most offensive part is that they force you to give your data to a network that has been hacked countless times. It’s literally like saying: If you want to play out game, you have to give your data to hackers.
fello04
I’m just gonna pirate it at this point, like how much fucking money do i have to pay to play one game god damn

can’t wait to see the nuke of backlash from this one after the whole Helldivers 2 fiasco, at this point I’m pretty sure the only reason Sony is trying to get PC players to use a PSN account is so they can harvest player data easily

Gentlemen and ladies, and those inbetween!
By the gods of sea and sky, make way for Tortuga!
RayphistJn
Nah, you know what needs to be done.
SnikkyType
I will play the free version until the PSN requirement is revoked.
Neospecial
Thanks. Pass.
Maybe some day I’ll play either of those games, surelyyy – either way it won’t be for full price by then.
postvolta
Looks like I’ll have to play Ragnarok some other way.

I hope they’ll still have Steam achievements.
If not, then I’ll just pirate it.
I buy singleplayer games on Steam, to 100% all achievements, also the reason, why I dont buy Ubisoft games (I would love to buy Black Flag and the older titles on steam, but what’s the point if there arent any achievements)
Same with Far Cry games.
I pirated GoW4 and loved it. So I later bought it on Steam to play again and 100% it.
I just dont see the point to 100% a game and do all the tedious little stuff that takes tons of hours to do, without any “reward” or to show that I did it.
doomed_lifeform
From now on, i’m just gonna pirate the shit out of Sony games.
Who8MyCat
Oh, okay… Just gonna remove them from my wishlist real quick..
Venixflytrap
On one hand I come from PlayStation and already have an account with them on the other hand forcing anyone to do something just to enjoy media is wrong i want the PlayStation games to do incredibly well on pc but forcing things like this is bad
Dry-Suggestion6042
Who cares, you need a ubisoft account to play their games, same case for many other games, literally who cares. Go touch grass, this is not a big deal.
EmperorThor
oh no, the games i wasnt going to buy are being stupid and now i wont buy them…. meh

Cast off the ropes, guess we are sailing again, me hearties…

Seems like it’s time to blow some dust from my good old eyepatch
Maleficent-Bit1995

andreBarciella

Psn requirement?
A pirates life for me 🎶
Crafty_Life_1764
Its time to sell my ps4 pro and ps5 fukk this moronicly lead company. Do you have to be a moron or an idiot to become ceo of sony and still do everything wrong? They still don’t know the landscape they are in after 29 fukking years.
Don’t support them,
don’t bow down.
ALL HAIL steam 😉
visual-vomit
All i’m hearing is “please pirate our games”
Darkone539
Surprised anyone is Surprised by this. Of course it does.
ibukun58
I can’t even open the steam page for the game, talk less about opening a PSN account. I guess I’m sailing the seven seas for this one
