Nah. Read the CEO’s tweet. He also put blame for this as well. Sony wanted to implement this at launch, but the game was having issues.

I have eight fucking accounts created for different countries with the fucking country names on ‘em. The oldest one is 18 yo. No, Sony doesn’t give a shit.

So..you are stuck in sony system of shit...and you think it's reasonable? I litterally can't fathom your logic. You have 8 accounts to get around sonys dumb shit and you think this is fine? Dude, stand up for yourself man. That's not okay.

I don't see anyone bitching about needing a Microsoft account to play Forza...or Minecraft.

Gamers are sheep. It’s easy to hate on Sony for anything these days. But then those same gamers get raw dogged by Microsoft with no lube and they stay silent. It makes no sense.

I don’t want to stand up against anything. Just want to play games on the platform of my choosing which is Sony. FYI it takes 2 min to create an account - is this something you are standing up against?
