Its like microtransactions. 8 years ago, people rejected it. Now.. most people accept it and it seems if you speak out, they call you man babies or go touch grass.
Slippery slope is real. All the cancerous crap we endure today is because of it. Trannies, microtransaction, national debt, crime.
Exactly my thoughts. If they don't implement it in this game then they will do it in a future game. They will also make it a requirement to get PS+. That's their moneymaker right there.
Something tells me you're right, they'll just play the long game. These games will all require PSN accounts and they'll be mandatory. They're just relenting in the here and now because of the massive fuck up it's been.
I still say that they should have done it the soft way. Make PSN creating and linking optional. If you don't do it, you can't cross play with PS players. It's that simple. I mean heck, people have also mentioned they would do it if they were incentivized. A skin, or some in game currency or something to sweeten the deal.
All of this is just a bargain with the devil, The game itself has nothing that would require the amount of centralization they are after except for their own micro transactions. And if we look into the past in regards to micro transaction that were on a similar end, or look into to fallout paid mods debacle. Unless the pressure is on this will only be a speedbump and then sony goes back right onto track.
That sounds like 'we'll just do it later' talk.

All rooted at the feet of people that say "it's ok". Fuck the participation trophy tards.

The desperation of it make me think the Stellar Blade/PSN cancellations hit them pretty hard.
