HELLDIVERS™ 2 - HELLDIVERS™ 2 Account Linking Update - Steam News
store.steampowered.com
Attention Helldivers, Due to technical issues at the launch of HELLDIVERS™ 2, we allowed the linking requirements for Steam accounts to a PlayStation Network account to be temporarily optional. That grace period will now expire. See details below in this post. Account linking plays a critical role in protecting our players and upholding the values of safety and security provided on PlayStation and PlayStation Studios games.

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.
