If your PSN account gets banned, can you still play your game?

[Punished Rusty Shackleford]

Burner accounts go against Sony's ToS so if you don't use your real name/info and they ban you, are you locked out from your purchase?

[Silverthorn]

Nope, psn will lock your account. Linking PSN with Steam account, hope they don't ban the steam account. Yes yes I know two diff companies. Read between the lines.

No i'm pretty sure you'd be banned from the game..

Of course if you managed to catch a ban, that's on you.

Well hold on... let's follow the logical path here.

If you breach the Sony TOS by creating a burner account.... and link your steam version to it.

They ban the burner account. And thus your steam version can no longer sign into PSN because of the banned account....

Mabey just don't make a burner account with fake info... it takes equal amount of time to put in fake and real info.

So you get banned because you don't trust Sony with your personal info lol....what a time to be a hobbyist

I think the only conection point between PSN and Steam is Helldivers. Kinda like how my EA account is not linked to my steam account directly but through mass effect.

Everyone acts like Sony is the only company that has ever had a data breach.

Microsoft, Steam, Discord, banks, social media companies. Even your phone company has probably had a breach or two.

so... every company should force you to create accounts, even when it's clearly not necessary? what kind of excuse is this
