Hey look! The PC holdouts who refused to budge on PSN requirements are getting what they want!
Good job, I honestly thought Sony would be too stubborn to change. They must want more money on PC.
I wonder if this’ll still be restricted to only PSN markets, since the account is optional.
I actually wouldn’t be surprised if Microsoft saying you’ll be able to play Xbox games on the Switch 2, implying that Game Pass is coming to Switch 2, was the thing that finally kicked their asses and gear and made them realize they were being fucking stupid trying to have so much control while Microsoft is out here with even tighter controls and a cheaper model (in a lot of gamers’ eyes at least, those who don’t care about things like longevity of studios or actual ownership of a product as opposed to rental licensing).
Sorry for the run-on sentence I don’t feel like fixing it.
“However, to incentivize you to still sign in with a PSN account while playing those games, Sony says that it will “soon” be adding “in-game content unlocks” like outfits and resources.”
This is a half win.
My interest for God of War Ragnarök has returned!
I didn’t think Sony would back down so I already accepted that I’ll never play Ragnarok. But now I guess I can wait until it’s 90% off
What is stopping them from reintroducing those requirements in the future?
we did it lemmy
Once bitten, twice shy.
I am aggressively hoping that this also means they release them on GOG like they did with early PC ports. It is genuinely why I’ve been holding out on most recent Sony ports (and Yakuza games, Sega, I did notice).
preparing wallet
I’ve strategically bought the games that dropped the requirement, I’m hoping they get the message from here on.
