"I vow to always maintain this"
So that was a fucken lie.
- If I saw 20 articles pop up about my mod that directly violates TOS I’d also run for the hills. If journalists kept quiet it probably would’ve stayed up.
  
  How much trouble can you legally get in for this? It doesnt really seem like much. If anything this dude was helping them sell copies
The game is cracked already; what's the point pursuing someone that just removes PSN from legal copies?
- There's a reason they want all the legal copies to have PSN login, if they were fine with it getting bypassed they wouldn't have made it a requirement in the first place
  
  What's the reason?
- Good. Fuck Sony
Once you put it on the internet, it's there forever.
Called it. Not in this fashion, but called it.
I could of sworn I read Sony decided to make the PSN account optional.
- I think that was for Helldivers 2
  
  I just searched it, straight from playstations website:
  https://direct.playstation.com/en-us/buy-games/god-of-war-ragnarok-pc
  "Do I need a PSN account to play PlayStation games on PC?"
  "No, you currently do not need a PSN account to enjoy PlayStation Studio games on PC, but you will need a Steam account to redeem your voucher code. Some of our PlayStation Studios titles also offer incentives for linking your Steam and PSN accounts."
  Edit: Their website could be outdated, or incorrect? I just swear I saw an article title that Sony removed the requirement for PSN for Ragnarok PC.
