I didn't get the game because it's packed full of all the terrible corporate stuff you see in terrible corporate games. Always Online, Rootkit anticheat, in-game store to purchase items when the game is already expensive. I doubt adding "must give your information to Sony" is going to be the tipping point for anyone who is fine with everything else.
Playing not online is miserable
Waaaaaaa anti cheat
The in game store requires zero to actual money and is probably the most fair one to date.
Game is expensive (it's the standard price?)
Jesus cry more about something you haven't even done.
Why does a fully cooperative game needs an anti-cheat software in the first place. I don't give a fuck about cheaters as long as its not competitive. Deep rock galactic for example works great without all of this bullshit.
To prevent people from spawning in unreleased content that is in the game, giving their group the maximum cap of in-game currency, and so on. Tamps down on the boosting market.
As I said in another comment I think it's more about people having to create another account.
I also don't know how or if PSN integration is going to impact matchmaking.
