Helldivers PSN drama....
What is your opinion on the drama situating around Helldivers requiring a PSN account now 3 months after release?
For those who aren't aware a lot of people have a huge issue with SONY security and the fact that PSN is not available/Banned in over 130 countries where the game has already been sold. (VPN is not a valid option and has already resulted in getting banned by doing so)

1 ReplyKinda disappointing most players are taking their frustration out on Arrowhead. The devs could’ve done a better job of saying that players will eventually need a PSN account to play, tho the devs aren’t too happy with Sony. I think this is a bit of a wake up call to PC players more than console players; Yes arrowhead is a AA studio, but they are being backed and are owned by Sony. Because I’m in PS5 I’m not as up in arms as much as PC players, I don’t feel as upset about the situation as I (maybe) should.

I hate that PSN has to force people to participate in their -blam!-, but honestly. My accounts were already linked 🤷♂️

3 RepliesI don’t play Helldivers, so I may be ignorant on some details, but basically every online game requires an account to play. How is this any different?

Update Sony has back peddled their choice! Let's go!!!

Just a note, even though it's already been resolved, AFAIK nothing has been reverted [i]YET[/i]. We have no reason to believe they would not reverse the decision, but nothing is actually fixed atm. Additionally, I believe the full list of countries it is currently delisted in is 177, including the Phillipines, Afhganistan, and even some countries WITH PSN access, where it was delisted to prevent too many refund requests.

1 ReplyWhat is Sony HQ up to? I know these guys doesn't want data leaks everywhere but that need PSN account required is absolutely too much. My bro heard the news and left the game.

2 RepliesEdited by Commander Zagatto: 5/4/2024 5:42:12 PMPC gamers shouldn't have to make a PSN account just to play helldivers its probably to force people to pay for PS+ eventually, if not already. I don't know much about PS+ because I've cheesed the system.
