Yes it’s dumb but it’s not like Sony is forcing some bullshit like origin/uplay stand alone clients.
Having to link a free account to play PS exclusives is a small price (less than 5 mins of your time once) to pay.
Sony has been moving exclusives to PC to essentially hook people on franchises to encourage them to buy PlayStation shit, this is just another step along those lines and if that’s what it takes to get amazing PS exclusive games like horizon, spiderman, god of war, etc. on PC, yeah I think that’s a pill we can all swallow.
Or do you prefer exclusives to die on their given platform?
I hope this doesn’t require a PSN account too.
Yarr, what’s that you say me hearty?
I hope not too. The first one didn’t, so hopefully this one won’t.
Who fuckin knows though.

The pill that needs to be swallowed is large companies losing money if they ask for data too.
Sure, those who want can hand over their data. Those that don’t can decode not to and sail the seas instead of paying.
I certainly won’t pay for games on of that force a PlayStation account despite having a PlayStation.
I don’t think it’s required for single player games.
