They are removing the “Skip” button from the linking page on game launch and forcing anyone who used it to link a PSN account now
There was a skip button?
I mean its not like EA games where ya need to install a 3rd party launcher
Still anyone review bombing over such a stupid thing needs a slap upside the head. Took me all of 2 min to sign up and now I have 90 house played
No one complains about having to sign up for Xbox shit.
Steam is available in 237 countries, while PSN is only available in 69 countries. Some people are going to be locked out from the game they bought. E.g African players are going to be fucked.
Because Xbox and Windows are fully integrated. Most people gaming don't have to have a separate account, just an Xbox username that you create once and it is attached to your Microsoft account. You're right about EA making you download the worst launcher in existence, but this statement about security is bs. Its more about them controlling the psn accounts and not the steam ones.
