Remove PSN Network requirement, then ill buy.

-drags a stick across the mud, drawing a line-

You're either someone i can trust....or someone i cant.
If i can trust you, then you wont have a problem stepping over this line, by removing the PSN network requirement. It's not a tall demand, rather, its very easy. You're either with pc gamers, or you're not.

The terms are set. It's up to Sony to respond through their actions. This game is £50, a lot of money to us normal folks, and if you want that £50, step over the line. Until you do...my money is staying in my wallet.

Steam Community, HOLD THE LINE.

I does not matter if GoW Ragnarok will have fast discounts due to refunds. Until they do not remove PSN requirements they have no chance of seeing even a dime from many (me included) of the people.

You still don't get it... POOR SALE = they see some problems... And then they act. Like for another example with Helldivers!

Oh yeah they acted alright. Banning 180 countries and PSN requirement is still on store page. This is a battle we can't win though we could still show them the middle finger by sailing.

Shareholders needed pleasing after Helldivers.

It may not seem like to big a issue for the most of us. But 180 Regions without PSN Access will NOT be able to play God of War Ragnarok on PC, This is a 100% Offline title so requiring this is not necessary. The Recent Ghost of Tsushima PC Port does not need a PSN Account if you want to play the single player mode, This requirement might block Steam Deck compatibility and Steam Family Sharing which is a problem because i planned to buy this primarily for Steam Deck and for my other 5 Steam Family members to be able to play this. Having it optional is the way to go, aside from that does Sony really gain anything from having Buyers make a PSN Account. People wont be very Calm and Reasonable if this is not reversed. Sony should not be sorry, they should be better.

Ironically I think PlayStation is trying to increase sales by requiring psn account linking. I think steams new family sharing might be the reason why Sony is doing the psn account linking. They're trying to increase sales. Unfortunately the psn account requirement is going to have the opposite effect.

That is not the reason they are doing it, any dev could opt out of family share.

And this changes things how?
Let's say a 101 people will buy it but one will refuse to create PSN and search for crack to bypass PSN requirment. That is still 100 new freshly created PSN accounts. So how will voting with your wallets might stop sony in forcing this crap in the future?
When you are 100:1?

Well it changed Helldivers 2 because they were gonna force it on us an we kicked up a big enough stink Sony changed their minds. If submissive people like you bend over for Sony then of course they won't do anything but pc gamers aren't like that.

[LeftPaw]

They are not going to do zhit until they see abysmal sales and overwhelmingly negative reviews. But of course it will be to late and the game will be bargain bin fodder.
It makes you wonder how Sony continues to function. The only prise they could win would be the most brain dead mega corp on the planet. Shame as they hold prisoner some very creative developers.

I saw massive refund requests on steam and reddit when HD2 did it, some of them even got approved.

Sony's ceo says one of the goals with these ports are to entice PC owners to play sequels on a PlayStation console. One of the reasons for PSN requirement is probably so they can send you emails about upcoming PS 5 games.

thats never going to happen. PC players are always that. PC players..If they havent bought yet why would they buy it now that all games are eventualy coming to PC? I dont have a problem waiting for a PC port and i'm sure a lot more ppl think the same That PSN account is to inflate numbers to the investors since not enough PS5 are beeing sold. "look guys, our numbers are increasing, more money for me and you WAZZZAAA"

"Don't agree" blah blah. Weak defense. Get proper arguments. Goodbye.
Also, same applies to you, buddy. lol

Hahha of course the same applies to me, that's why I'm not doing it.
"Blah blah", I mean, yes, you are very argumentative, how could I compete with that?
You said one good thing at least - goodbye, stay safe.

There is no argument to be had.
You = "I won't buy because PSN or woke"
Me = "I will buy and I don't care also woke isn't an argument"
The end. That simple.
I guess you just can't stand other people having a different stance than you.

As I already said, you do whatever you want, I'll do whatever I want.
Don't worry, I won't count your mistakes against you xD.
And you would be amazed at all I can stand. You, my friend, and your "takes" don't bother me at all. They just amuse me, and are frankly educational in regards to human nature.

The heck are you talking about? lmao
It's literally just my opinion and my stance.
You're acting more frail than the so called "snowflakes". Right on point for modern day rage baiter followers.

All cool, you're opinion has been noted. And noted. And than noted some more.

And my friend, my first platform was ZX Spectrum, but thank you very much for calling me modern.

PSN requirement = BAN IT OFF STEAM.
Sony has made huge mistakes and they've proved they hate their own consumers, especially the PC side by locking every future PC release behind PSN, apparently.
Steam needs to take steps about this. PSN shouldn't be forced ,at least not in games that are only singleplayer.
And PSN should only be required for cross-platform playing. If you only play online on the PC side, then you shouldn't be forced to surrender to Sony if you have no intent on playing with PlayStation players.

But we're not allowed to choose, this is being forced. So I am keeping my money.
