Hello.
I tried to sum up in the title.
I’m confused why some “gamers” tries at all cost to make narratives over something that is not a issue at?
I really can’t understand these weirdo.
Let’t out some faces here:
I wonder what the reason behind that? And I really can’t find any other reason except the already dated and incomprehensible “Evil Sony hate”.
Bonus side.
Even with a increase in bad reviewers in Steam the CCU is unaffected… in fact it seems to even be growing.
Feels like the same weird “issues” some people tried to create over Hogwats Legacy… so we all know how it ended.
Actual Helldivers 2 players seems to had not even read about these made up “issues” at all and continue to enjoy the game.
Why these hates can do the same? I mean… be happy enjoy the game… it is really a great game.
Why PlayStation having great games huts so much some vocal people on social media?

Let’t out some faces here:
- Helldivers 2 Steam page says PSN Account is required since December 1, 2023.
- The game launched in February 8, 2024 with PSN Account requirement.
- It was removed because the developer was having login issues across all players and to understand and isolate the issue they disabled the PSN Account login.
- After they fixed the login issues and make sure the PSN Account login was not related to it they choose to re-enable it requirement.
- The reason is simple… with PSN account requirement they have more power to deal cheaters and harassment without need to pass the slow process existent in Steam… they can just to what needs without deal with Steam and tickets there because they can do directly internally being way more effective with deal with shit gamers (cheaters, harassers, etc) making a better community to all gamers.
- Plus all major big publishers on Steam requires 3rd-party account for several years already… so T is a common practice.

These guys are now making up lies that people are being banned. And using poorly photoshopped images to spread fake news 
The bigger question is why they brought this nonsense here.
Attention seekers.
Making a mountain out of a molehill.

People lying that creating PSN accounts choosing any country is illegal lol
The more you see the more lies you find.
It is totally fine to create PSN accounts in countries you don’t live.

So Sony might bend the knee? Which means they’ll have to do the same with Ghost of Tsushima, Concord, and any other multiplayer PC game…. Throwing their entire plan of inflating MAUs out the window
It’s a lose, lose situation, great job Sony, amazing foresight as always.
OK ppl we have seen about 5 different threads about the Helldivers acct link or linking in general and policy and have merged a few. Whether you are for it or against it can live in one of the several threads.
Also some of you need to tone things down. We don't want to thread ban but will if necessary.
@ethomaz you have valid points and I have added it to the OP as well.

They will soon realize the the PC userbase is wildly different from their console customers. Kind of like dating a crazy THOT. Is the reputational damage to the brand worth it?
Microsoft make it mandatory now to sign in to a Microsoft account to set up windows lol
The ghost of Tsushima situation is different. You only need a PSN to play the online game modes. And it is mandatory to play. You cannot play online, from the get go, without one. So it's a lot different.So Sony might bend the knee? Which means they’ll have to do the same with Ghost of Tsushima, Concord, and any other multiplayer PC game….

This is an automated 1:1 response that means nothing.People lying that creating PSN accounts choosing any country is illegal lol

The thing nobody is asking is: Why are all those console players mad?
it's a PC problem, it doesn't impact you or affect you. If people want to leave negative reviews, they are free to do so. I had no idea how insane Sony fanboys are before joing this website, good grief.
You brought this nonsense here.
It’s a public forum where most posters are console gamers.
What did you expect? Sympathy?
Do whatever the hell you want on Steam or elsewhere.
Fans are fans the same as everywhere else so please don't go there. Pick your website and I can show you the zealots. Some ppl here care, others don't but they all have valid points. For me linking is more of an inconvenience and annoyance but I don't really care and have done it before but I understand others views.
I've been away for a while, and coming back to this is certainly unpleasant.
I'm looking at an unusually high amount of vitriol, entitlement and arrogance. But what really gets me angry is people spreading lies.
I suggest people stop it, before I take action.

I didn't know Icon-era is PS5 exclusive website.
Yes, zealots are on every website. but you are acting like people negatively reviewing a game on Steam or having their different opinions impact you personally or your gaming experience on console.
And no, I don't want empathy. There's nothing to give empathy for.
Its not PS5 exclusive website.
It’s a public forum with different views to yours.
Isn’t that obvious?
Talking about impact, we aren’t just console gamers. Many of us play on PC too.
Anyway how does it impact you? You don’t even own the game.
Yeah good job arrowhead bite the hand that fed you for 8 years, lesson learnt for sony is to never give a no name puny studio money because if they make a somewhat popular game they will throw you under the bus
