    You’re playing on Sonys servers, they need a way to enforce a ban when you are a dick. On steam if they ban your account, you make a new one, and family share the game bypassing the ban.

    This is Sonys servers, it’s their rules, no different than needing a Steam account to play Steam games. This isn’t something out of the ordinary….

    I’m not sticking up for or defending anything, people are just too fucking stupid to read requirements before buying things, and now you being just as stupid defending the stupid people doing this lmfao.

    It’s Sonys servers, of course it requires an account….

      So the only way to ban dicks is for them to have a PSN account? That ain’t it my brother.

      Sony servers, sure, just release a server binary, let others host it and offload all infrastructure costs! Massive savings!

      Don’t suck corporate ass man, cmon.

        Wow… how do they ban all your other accounts unless steam vac bans you for a Sony ban? Don’t you think that would be an entire other issue…? Get your steam if banned, make a new account and family share it, bypassing Sonys ban with now way of the knowing…. Yeah that’s a fucking problem.

        Uhhh… you understand the concept of this game… yeah…?

        Don’t suck corporate ass man, cmon.

        You couldn’t be making a bigger idiot of yourself right now.

      You’d have to pay for the game again regardless of where you got banned, and can Sony not opt out of allowing family sharing?

        What? Sony can only ban a steam id, how’s Sony supposed to know you’re family sharing to another account? And you don’t need to buy a new game to family share, that’s the entire issue.

        You can bypass banning without linked accounts due to steams policies, maybe if steam would issue a vac ban for a sony ban, but people would be even more up in arms about that.

          Back when the new family sharing rules came out, I remember reading something about how developers could opt out of family sharing. That’s what I was referencing.

            Developers can opt out of family sharing. A family sharing account that gets banned, the owning account also gets banned.
