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.
But maybe, just maybe enough folks will review bomb or request refunds to get Sony to backtrack.
50k negative steam reviews in a single day is a pretty good incentive to reverse course. Thats more negative reviews in a single day then a fair amount of games recieve overall. Folks were absolutely not keen on what they viewed as a bait and switch.
As for how much it’ll impact actual numbers I think time is going to be the important factor, more particularly trending players over time… and what happens on the proverbial D-day.

But mostly I don’t think we’ll see that big a dip realistically.
Let’s be honest, most folks who play this aren’t in the discord, Lemmy, or subreddit. They’ll login and see the thing, sign up for a PSN and play.
