Sony boss admits forcing PC gamers into PlayStation accounts can "invite pushback," but insists they have to keep games safe – which doesn't really track in single-player (www.gamesradar.com)

I don’t see in what way having a PSN account would make Horizon Zero Dawn safer on PC.

But I also wouldn’t mind so much if the few PC games I’d buy from Sony were linked to my PSN account as I’ve been a Playstation gamer since the first console.

Still, I wouldn’t want every publisher to require an account to play..

It's safer for Sony's stock price, as they can report higher numbers of people on the PlayStation Network and greater "player engagement". What, you thought this was about improving the experience for the customer? No one gives a fuck about them.
