"The Arad-based (Romania) indie games developer Predict Edumedia are today very happy and excited to announce that their turn-based roguelike/dungeon-crawler/RPG "ARHAEKON", is coming to PC via Steam Early Access in Q2 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
PlayStation tweets: "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."
Now, will gamers take all this fervor and aim it at the likes of EA, Ubisoft, Take2, and others who have way more invasive and problem-causing apps for Steam games?
Sony is like a whipping boy for the industry and it's just lame at this point. This is like my Activision account I use for Call of Duty. I'm not a 'fan'' of Activision but it's free and it comes in handy. The PSN account would come handy if they decide to do cross saves and I'm sure some other stuff too. I have an account for practically everything, including this site. I need a Microsoft account to play some PS5 games. No one has been able to explain what the big problem with a PSN account was.
They dont want one because they cant trust them with all the times Sony got hacked which makes no sense cause steam got hacked so does everythinv else in this world. Been with playstation and i never had a problem security wise. PlayStation doesnt hold SSN and you dont have to put you credit card on it either. Pc users just wanna cry, its a PlayStation game they should be happy Sony putting games on pc to begin with. Also funny they dont trust Sony but yet would play there games when on pc.
Yes, people have explained the problem with a PSN account...there has been 15 million articles on it and surely you read a few and saw some comments...it is because PSN is not supported in a lot of countries meaning people in those countries can't create a PSN account and therefore would be unable to play the game at all.
Christopher with all I do respect, your bias is showing heavily, be positive, congratulate people and ask for them to do more, no need for this passive aggressive bitterness
He has literally failed articles based on whether or not it will upset Sony fanboys lol. We know where he stands and it's not neutral.
You are the one showing bias. Christopher is 100% right here, all this HDII and PSN linking is a gigantic hypocrisy.
Much need for it, because I know no one is going to turn any of this attention anywhere and it will just die out until the next Internet band wagon pops up. Gamers are proven to have power, they will then squander it rather than utilize it where it matters.
I’d argue there’s a better softer approach they could do, just make it optional with bonus for people who did it like some free cosmetics and make it required only for cross-play and cross-save purposes. That way the people who can do it have bonus incentives and people in countries without psn can still play without problems.
Sony is also extremely bad i think alot i mean alot of people are in the clouds thinking its 2010's.
I agree with the whole other publishers should also remove there link unless for crossplay of course but sony its the worse right now.
As of 2023 sony requires your real information dob/address/phone number even phone text's for login but the way worse part is the need for personal government id.
The way sony account creation is no one can make a account until they are a legal adult in there country then you got all that data on a server with the same security as donal trump's bathroom file cabinet.
Oh also sony's terms of service says if you use a vpn its a auto ban remember sony uses bots to monitor everyone.
With Microsoft every person that has windows 11 installed there is a very high chance you already have a account microsft account is xbox account there creation page is still basic but no doubt will get just as bad a sony soon.

Thank goodness they went back on this decision because if it stayed then even users that could make a account might not have been able do too the lack of a govt id.
Here come the disagrees even though i left proof.
But this is n4g alot of you would give sony anything they want your fortune first born child anything so your sin/govt card is nothing for those kind.
The government id is only in certain countries and it's not Sony's decision. It's laws your governmwnt like mine here in UK made that means they require that.
“…alot of you would give sony anything they want your fortune first born child anything so your sin/govt card is nothing for those kind.”
It’ll be alright. Just breathe…
You have disagrees because everything you said was ill informed. It's like this is your first insight into regional requirements.
I would save your anger for the companies that don't listen to it's player base.
@mrd

I am so tired of this community i do not know why sony does not support trump at this point its the same fan pool
Its not sony its the evil government leave poor sony alone right n4g i cant be bad to the person you give a bj too every night.

I have not seen a news article that says uk has a gun to the head of companies forcing them to make you provide govt ids.
Now china yes they have the id to play shit or egypt www lockdown.
But i know know its sony they must make shit movies destroy every ip and fire all there old staff to replace with cheaper staff then sell glorified tablets at $500 usd.
The difference is EA, Ubisoft, Take2, etc didn't release their games and then down the line implement forced account linkage under the guise of "security". Gamers know from when they buy EA and Ubisoft games that you'll need an account with those companies. Also when was the last time a company delisted an extremely popular game from over 100 countries?
It was listed on the game as a requirement and it was a decision by arrowhead so that people could get into the game. In future companies won't be able to make such decisions and you will simply be left unable to play the game.
May aswell strike while the fire is hot
If not….then people are a bunch of hypocrites
Thank you! I have a PS account, but bought this on PC. I just hate having to do stupid stuff like this just to get into the game I bought.
You should try getting a resident evil MP working not as bad as making a sony account but its right up there i tried with a fake dump email holy spam batman. I never finished the account creation
Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4 remakes are likely off the table forever, as new claims from anonymous Activision devs bury your hopes for good.
"Tony Hawk himself purported that plans were in place until Vicarious Visions’ obligations to Activision’s mammoth FPS game franchise, Call of Duty, got in the way"
Same what happened to Raven Softworks sadly
We'll never get Singularity 2
The article says it was too ambitious for them to remake 1-4 in a single package for the deadline they had, not that remakes of 3+4 are too ambitious to be made in general. So they cut back to 1+2.
They were going to remake 3+4 later but unfortunately they got diverted to the Call Of Duty mines.
If Microsoft want to prove that they have had any sort of positive influence on Activision whatsoever, I'll be expecting Pro Skater 3+4.
Just let Toys For Bob remake the maps. The mechanics are already perfect.
This is kinda pathetic on Activision. Hire someone else to do a remake if you have to. Not every dev needs to be working on cod
Yeah, on top of that who wants to buy COD every year? Seriously.. any good MP game should easily be good for 2-3 years before needing a sequel if it has enough content or a few updates here and there.
Damn i was just showing off this game to my friends... best mind boggling game ever!!!
Oh dude I already have this one! I got it back when it was new on Steam. Such a funny game. :D
I work in a cubicle all day, it drives me insane. I feel this mans pain
stanley is the best !
i'm loving the narrator :3 his voice is perfect
Best demo for a game i ever saw. This game is a must for everyone, especially those interested in writing.
