Attention Helldivers, Due to technical issues at the launch of HELLDIVERS™ 2, we allowed the linking requirements for Steam accounts to a PlayStation Network account to be temporarily optional. That grace period will now expire. See details below in this post. Account linking plays a critical role in protecting our players and upholding the values of safety and security provided on PlayStation and PlayStation Studios games.
Well, well, well. I see Sony wants to kill all the goodwill their game has garnered with this linking bullshit.
No argument from me there. Especially since they’re saying the only reason it wasn’t required was some sort of technical issue at launch.
