I’m a PS5 player, so I can’t make an impact, but if you did write a negative review (thank you, you made this happen ❤️) please consider taking the time to change it! This was clearly not AH decision and the game deserves an accurate review, it’s easily one of the best games I’ve ever played and definitely the best game as a service!
Edit: woke up to new comments, this post reminded… Lemmy is just the same as Reddit.
Edit2: Christ I need to turn off Lemmy notifications, I’ve left this community and this was a stark reminder for me… don’t engage with a specific game community, just enjoy the fucking game!
From what I've read elsewhere AH was aware of the PSN account linking long before the game's release. Also just because Sony is backpedaling because of the negative reviews, I don't see that as a reason to change my review. Even if the gameplay is widely praised, I think the negative reviews explaining what shitty practices were at hand should stay for future potential customers. I doubt Sony is done doing stupid stuff like this
Yes Arrowhead was aware that it wasn't fully set up because in Sony's own terms it was always optional to link a PSN account while playing on PC. That is until they announced this forced change and rewrote the terms of service that same weekend.
