    Well, to be fair, they did write - in bold letters - on the Steam page that a Playstation network account is required to play.

    They simply didn’t enforce that rule up until now.

      Also locks out anyone not living in the 66 countries serviced by the PSN.

      Also now requires giving your personal info to yet another third party and their friends. A third party which has a storied past of losing user data.

      The game was sold other places (like the Humble store) without the PSN warning.

      Also it’s been sold in countries that the PSN doesn’t support.

        I’m totally with you on that latter point - Sony needs to do something about that.

          Idk about other places than Steam, but I’m surprised more people haven’t gone at Steam for allowing the game to be sold in countries that will get essentially blocked from playing. I feel like they should’ve had some kind of cross referencing going on there.
