    Eh, nothing of value has been lost. The original will now be dirt cheap in keyshops.

    Welp, glad I downloaded this the other day

    So, like a bunch of other games that did the same, only nobody cared.

  4. CyzeDoesMatter-

    Will there be a cheap upgrade to the remaster for people that own the original?

  5. Tumblrrito

    Don’t Xbox first party titles on PC require the same?

  6. ayyLumao

    Actually the original is bundled with the remaster.

  7. PsyopSurrender

    Sony requires this for EVERY game going forward. At this point it should be very known.

    Reminder to everyone in the EU that the StopKillingGames initiative exists, to protect purchases and games. 

  9. Will the remaster support the Luke Ross REALVR mod is the real question here?

    I’m actually not surprised they did this.

    Sony really milking this game huh? Why the hell are they remastering a game that came to PC in 2020 and still looks great?

    Everyone in these comments seems to have forgotten the push back from the Helldivers 2 community for this same scummy behavior. Making me make yet another account, for another service just so you can pull the rug from under me is crappy business.

    When you offered the game without the account, and now force it you’re really just shining a light on the fact that you want to monetize more of my information, to suck every last dime out of me as a customer. That’s a real good way to not get my money.

    I bought the complete edition and it’s still show up in the store

  14. What’s with all the Sony dickriders/fanboys ITT with their dickhead POV re: PSN requirements? You can’t see it’s kinda fucked up that a large part of the world can’t play some of their games because of arbitrary restrictions? Since when does spawn RNG somehow justify this practice? This is just weird, shitty gatekeeping/elitism. Do better.

    You get the original though when you buy the remaster so it’s not the end of the world.

    As someone who has bought every generation of Playstation and always supported Sony…if you’re still supporting them at this point you have no one to blame but yourself. They’re cartoonishly greedy.

    Sony’s finding ways to break down records this year.

    Out-flopping Redfall with Concord

    Out-greedying Nintendo with all these practices

    i think its time for me to play this again

    Surely this can only go over well with Steam players. I remember how well they took this with Helldivers 2.

    Well shit guess future Sony games won’t come to GOG like HZD and recent titles thanks to the login requirement.  

    Oh well yo ho ho and de bottle of bourbon and all. 

    I already have a technically 20+ year old account but much prefer DRM free on PC.

  21. Dany_Targaryenlol

    I already got Horizon Zero Dawn and Horizon Forbidden West on Steam.

    Gonna check out this remastered to see how good they made it look.

    Outta all the IPs that Sony owns I only really care for The Last of Us and Horizon IPs.

    Still waiting for The Last of US 2 but that likely won’t be out for PC until the HBO Max show arrives alongside it for maximum hypes / sales.

    Why would anyone pay extra for that edition? Wtf is new? Sony keeps changing the player models to a worse version like Spider-Man anyways.

  23. TheIndulgers

    Sony being shitty. Nothing new here.

    Just another common Sony L.
