Sony fucked this game over so hard.
It was everywhere until they demanded the PS account linking and now no one talks about it since.

I don't have a PS account, and I play just fine. What are you talking about?
Because they went back. But they added it on months after release. People outside of regions that PlayStation is in could not make accounts and straight up lost access to the game. Huge controversy and outrage. So eventually they undid it, but it was too late the damage to the game was done.
No, because you never had to make a PS account, that's what I'm telling you. It was never implemented.
There are many reasons a game might shrink in player numbers after release, but this ain't it, chief.
Yeah, I was very heavily into the game, playing for at least a bit every day, once the whole fiasco started I immediately stopped playing it. Some of my buddies mentioned they got rid of the requirement after that and that I should play again but honestly I don’t have any desire to touch the game after that rug pull.
It’s not just PlayStation, the game is fun but repetitive enough it gets old kinda quickly.
Is it still geoblocked ?
I've had a couple of people ask me to play it with them for the first time in the last couple of months. Sure, it's anecdotal, but that's all I've got to go on.
