    Powder keg type question.

    What reasons made you share a bed with nProtect but leave when it came to a publisher account linking?

      Not him, but nProtect doesn’t actually work properly when playing helldivers through proton on linux. It launches but doesn’t have kernel access.

      One was known to be part of the game right off the bat, so it wasn’t as much of a betrayal to me even if i dont love it.

      This psn stuff was technically somewhere in the fine print, but the fact no psn account was required for all these months makes their “security” pretense even more unbelievable, especially when as you point out a very invasive anti cheat is already part of the game.

      Now players such as me have spent quite a few hours leveling up, farming stuff, perhaps even spending some cash, and are now when the refund period has lapsed coerced into creating yet another intrusive and redundant account with a console company, while I don’t even have one.
