UPDATE 5/6/2024: Helldivers fans -- we’ve heard your feedback on the Helldivers 2 account linking update. The May 6 update, which would have required Steam and PlayStation Network account linking for new players and for current players beginning May 30, will not be moving forward. We’re still learning what is best for PC players and your feedback has been invaluable. Thanks again for your continued support of Helldivers 2 and we’ll keep you updated on future plans.
Well, well, well. I see Sony wants to kill all the goodwill their game has garnered with this linking bullshit.
The post says this: “This is our main way to protect players from griefing and abuse by enabling the banning of players that engage in that type of behaviour. It also allows those players that have been banned the right to appeal.”
I find that of dubious justification, but that’s their explanation.

Yeah, I also find it to be bullshit since steam already has a way to ban and a appeals process they can follow.
Nah, this is just corporate meddling to get more data to mine and sell and let it be stolen when Sony inevitably allows another data breach.
Sounds familiar to the reasoning they gave for having root level cheat detection in their game.
