Sony cancelled the PSN account linking requirement for Helldivers 2

So, someone in my Discord channel posted a tweet that maybe alters perspective a bit;

To summarize or if the link breaks, one of the devs “knew beforehand” they’d have to require PSN accounts post launch, but disabled them for a smooth launch. That’s interesting, but as long as Sony was acting as publisher I feel like the blame still goes on them for selling the game to non-PSN countries initially.
