It has been a turbulent time in the Helldivers 2 community over the past few days after Sony announced that players will need to connect a PSN account to Steam. This led to a lot of backlash from the community, which resulted in Helldivers 2 becoming the most negatively reviewed paid game in Steam history. Sony backtracked earlier today and announced that players will no longer be required to link a PSN account, which is great news for the community.
