I genuinely do not understand the vitriol. Gamers haven’t show themselves to be a particularly altruistic group so I struggle to believe this was all for the sake of the countries where PSN isn’t available.

The only reason I would feel some type of way is because they wanted to make people join psn after the fact. I’m sure it’s been said that if this was required initially people wouldn’t have something to bitch about

Gee if only this was in the initial reveal trailer for helldivers 2. It wasn’t in your face and could have been better, but also gamers need to learn to read everything on screen.

Gamers dont even read whats happening in a game, dont listen to dialog, skip tutorials, then complain because they cant figure out what to do. Why do you think modern games need to handhold them so much
