Does anyone know what type of information is shared by linking accounts

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

Afraid you're gonna have to dig deep into their privacy policies for that, including all third party vendors they partner with, which I'm assuming is more than just a few. The world of policies is intricate by design...

Just curious, did anybody with over two hours got a refund?

It’s been like 24 hours. Everyone at Sony is asleep while Arrowhead is being 💩 on for Sonys decision

Playstation is the most anti-consumer company ever, even worse than Epic, which is insane.

You are forgetting about Nintendo. And that is only mentioning gaming companies... look outside gaming and there is a whole shit-show going on at the moment for that position.

What’s going on? Is this game published by fucking Sony?

I had to sign up for PSN over a month ago, why is there outrage now?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same— my understanding is that there’s now no option to play without making one, which for some countries and territories is not even an option, making the game unplayable for them.

It was apparently skippable before.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It was so skippable I never even knew there was an option to link to a PS Account, which I dont have because my last PlayStation was the PS2

It doesn't seem like a big change to me, so long as you can just have it linked to your Steam account and nothing else.

I'd mostly be upset if it breaks Linux compatibility or was a single player game (HD2 isn't).

As always, people completely overreacting to the minor inconvenience of creating an account. Crazy

I wouldn't let them fondle my testicles.

Eh, I knew it when I bought it. I didn't know better and signed up. I wasn't tricked and we all started the game that first time and were told about it
