God of War Ragnarök has finally hit the PC gaming realm, and it’s a momentous occasion for those of us who love wielding Kratos mighty axe and exploring mythic realms.
We would’ve expected that this game would hit the esteemed “Overwhelmingly Positive” review grade on its Steam page, but that is far from being the case.

As it stands now, a few hours after release, the game has a Mixed review grade. When looking at the majority of negative reviews, one would expect they’d be about performance, bugs, and similar technical things.
Surprise! It is because the developers and publishers require you to have a PlayStation Network Account to play the game, despite it being a PC game and is single-player. Uh oh.
Here are the rivers and rivers of negative reviews:

And the list goes on, and on, and on.
One user, Rhavan, even wrote a poem about the issue. Yes, a magnificent poem:
I bought God of War, ready to slay,
But Sony steps in, blocking my way.
“Sign in to PSN,” they bark like a beast,
Before I play, they need their feast.My data’s the sacrifice, not Mjolnir or blades—
Just digits and numbers for their corporate raids.
Email, birthdate, card info too,
All so they can milk a dime out of you.Screw your “community,” your digital sham,
I just wanted to crush gods—not give a damn.
That made us giggle.
