Absolutely. Gaming subscription service numbers are starting to stall and this was a way to inflate those numbers for the shareholders. There is zero reason to require players to use PSN other than collect data and add to their numbers. It's the downside of being to update a game after it's release. It's happened numerous times now where a game has came out, bought by customers and then changed a week later, usually to include some scummy business practice. I think a big part of the problem was throwing this out there after launch. I wouldn't be surprised if going forward with their next games that the PSN account linking will be a day 1 requirement. -
I've been away all week and was actually planning to jump in to Helldivers II this weeks thanks to the immense social pressure I've been under. Lots of friends having a good time on PS5 and PC wanting me to join them, so coming back to this news was hilarious. Had this gone through, I wouldn't have even been able to buy the game. Extremely arrogant of Sony. It just shows how utterly detached these AAA companies are from the end user and what they actually want from gaming. Sony has demolished any good will this game had earned them, and while there is certainly a much deeper discussion to be had regarding MS, Sony and PC releases, this was an extremely sceptical move, hilariously pushed under the guise of "player safety". In reality, this is just Sony trying to sweep up a few extra PSN users for their earnings calls and balance sheets. The "safety" they speak of is just more control over how people play the game and the discussions they have over voice chat. They also want more data too, which is what having everyone log in to PSN would have given them. Needless to say, I will not be buying this game. I see people in some regions have been given refunds despite having 100+ hours in the game already. And rightly so, IMO. This seems to be another example of a continuing trend where a product is sold and then the rules are arbitrarily changed a few weeks or months down the line to the detriment of the buyer. So while I'm very pleased to see Sony walking it back in the face of the outrage, I have no doubt that this is just a minor bump in the road and they will merely implement all of this stuff in a more subtle way over time. -

Two more badges obtained and two to go. It's ridiculous have few new Pokemon are kicking around the place. Not that it really matters because my main 3 are steamrolling everything. I spent some more time in the Underground and I quite like the mining mini game. The Underground is something I never really bothered with in the original game. -
