Am I correct in assuming once you have made your PS account, that's it? You don't have to do anything again; you can just play Helldivers from then on with no issues.

I mean, it's literally took a maximum of a few minutes to do it; I even had to make a Bethesda account to play my Doom, quake and Quake 2 games.

Why is this such a big sticking point?

that isn't the only reason, anyone whining about having to make an account is weird,

It's the ones TRYING to or want to and they can't.

I explain here

Because at some point, some company is going to push and idea too far. The first few may get away with it, the next few will be scowled at, then finally someone will say they're fed up with this shit.

That's what this is. Microsoft took their fair share of fuckings as well. They got slammed for their attempt at DRM where other services got away with it.

It's best not to look at the micro (it's Sony) and focus on the macro (gamers had enough of greedy corpos)

Is this thread parody? I had to link my Xbox account yesterday to play SoT. Unless you can skip that step and I didn't notice?

did they delist the game in all the countries they previously sold in before this, or was this mandatory since the beginning with no leniency?

Did they sell in regions they knowingly do not support? Thought so.

I don’t know, but also I don’t give a shit if someone in Uganda can’t link his Xbox account.

Where you trying to answer my question?

you're breaking ToS then, you're lucky. Others have been banned for this.
Stop making shit up, he is not 'lucky', that's how it was from Inception. Ten of thousands accounts are created like this, 3rd world countries, trophy hunters etc.. all has multiple accounts trailing from creation of PSN.

@Bo_Hazem has one for 15 years, me having US account from EU, i know my whole country creating accounts from other countries, no one is getting banned.

Since PS3 when PSN official country support was laughable at the beginning . Now, all of a sudden TOS matters. LOL

No. I left that ecosystem a long time ago. Not making an account for one or two games a decade I might buy from them.
