    Ah yes Sony, the company famous for being reasonable and of sound mind body and spirit.

      Still is dead to me. I heard you can bypass the requirement and don’t need a Sony acct again, but it’s just not worth the trouble.

        You don’t have to “bypass it.” When you install the game, during the settings process it asks if you would like to create a PS account and you just click no, or skip IDR what the word on the button was. Then it never asks you to do it again, but you can still link it in the options menu if you wanted to later on.

      Even people who liked the game couldn’t play it for long.

    You tried to charge money for a live service game, a genre that has endless options that are free.

    Who could have guessed that ahead of time? The industry is famous for seeing a successful new strategy and then driving it into the ground with a list of copycats. The strategy has made so much money before; why would it ever have failed this time?

    (Let’s all laugh at an industry that never learns anything tee hee hee)

    Blame others, go ahead. Helldivers 2 is doing great and Arc Raiders has people excited.
