Not getting abused by Sony and it's ilk Is just one of the many principles that we can uphold at minimal risk and for minimal cost. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] thanks_shakey_snake@lemmy.ca 68 points 2 years ago (1 child) Oh, found it. Sony decided post-hoc that: a) You'll need a PSN account to play Helldivers through Steam, even though why would you need a PSN account? b) If you're in a region where you can't create a PSN account, you just can't purchase Helldivers anymore, or play it if you've already purchased it.

I mean it takes less than 20 hours of playtime before you've already seen everything the game has to offer. It's a very repetitive and predictable game. For me to consider a multiplayer game worth my money, it needs to provide at least 250 hours of enjoyment minimum. permalink fedilink source parent
