There was always a banner on the Steam page that states "Requires 3rd-Party Account: PlayStation Network (Supports Linking to Steam Account)"

You don't need one for Horizon, God of War, or Spider-Man. And I'm sure you don't need it for Uncharted or Day's Gone.

Do any of those games have multiplayer, though?

Sure seems like Helldivers' multiplayer works just fine without a Sony account.

All of their support and controls are tied to the PSN account system, though.

You're right. That's why they're being made to do this.
