      Sounds like they will be bringing the PSN requirement back for future games maybe. The only thing they probably learned was to announce the requirement for account linking from the start and make it more vissible

        Is that worth the loss of sales from those 177 or whatever it was extra countries? That’s the part that confuses me.

      I think for the executives the only reason to release old games on pc is to bring more players to their console, and if they can’t have a psn account that means they will nvr buy a PlayStation. That’s my guess

      Definitely the third option. They’re going to wait until Helldivers hype dies down then quietly reimplement the requirement when much less people are tuned in. Guaranteed.
