We (on the whole, generally speaking) sign into Steam, Blizzard, EA, Ubisoft, MS, and all sorts of shit to play single player games. Now Sony is a problem because they are a console manufacturer AND a software publisher? On principle, having to go online for any reason in a single player makes my brain itch a tad also but the ship sailed on that over a decade++ ago. If signing into something is a problem for you at this point then there are a lot of games you are skipping. I can respect that, I can think of a few games I have skipped for far less impactful reasons if I am being honest, but let's not pretend like Sony is asking for something akin to our first born here either. Playstation is their brand name for gaming and PSN has been used on PC for many Sony published games and for some time now. If PC gamers want these games to be cross patform available, then PC gamers are gonna sign into the same PSN stuff that the console owners do. I would be shocked if it was any other way. In fact, the fact that Sony doesn't already have a launcher (like EA, MS, Ubisoft, etc) on PC they want running in the background is the only part of all this that shocks me.
I am also not sure what purpose a negative review about something that happens in the first 2 minutes then not refunding the game actually serves. That said, I am supportive of people voicing their opinions and I have always thought that with the appropriate approach and perspective, user reviews are much more helpful overall then "professional" ones when I am making a decision specifically about purchasing a game. You just have to read through both negative and positive because not everyone agrees on what is actually negative, positive, or even what doesn't matter.
