I give up. Devs don't seem to know what they're doing. The game is still a buggy mess. They "fix" one thing and break two more. But the last straw is that I can't play the game without this growing feeling of dread whenever I start having fun. Because if you have any fun it is guaranteed that the Devs will break all your toys, spit in your face and insist THEY know better than you do what fun is. It's not worth it anymore.

So it seems Sony wisely changed their minds on the account linking. But don't get too excited. We won this battle but the war is far from over. They WILL try again. Like a crooked politician trying to pass bad legislation, they'll just wait a little while, change a few words, give it a flowery name and try again. Don't rest on your laurels and NEVER give these people an INCH.

Of course this only happened due to an impressive joint backlash by the gaming community. This is how it should be. This is how we make corporations work for US. We TERRIFY them with what could happen if they don't give us what we want.

Now we just need Arrowhead to stop being two-faced and get a handle on their incredibly toxic community managers and moderators and we'll finally be approaching something resembling sanity.

This thumbs down will remain as a reminder for the future.

Three months after launch and we got bait and switched. They now want us to sell our personal details to Sony in order to continue playing a product we already bought and continued supporting. A PSN account is something that the game very clearly does not need and is something PC players very clearly do not want to deal with.

They say its for "protection and safety" which is an out right lie. What they want is for you to submit to their mass surveillance and allow them to force you to comply with their morality. I am an adult. I am perfectly capable of seeing to my own online safety and do no need a soulless, ideologically possessed, multi million dollar corporation to do it for me.

If you must play this do NOT use the chat feature. Either voice or text. It's all being recorded. It's not worth it to call someone a "doodoo head", no matter how much they deserved it, only to get banned by an AI that's probably frying itself trying to grasp the increasingly ambiguous modern definition of "hate speech".
