You see, there's the thing. Sony is not requiring any sort of launcher. It's an account.
"But mah privacy!"
Again, no launcher. What exactly are they going to track? That you're playing their game?
Launcher, just an email, doesn't matter. There is absolutely no reason to have it in the game, and I'm very happy we are starting the trend of saying "Fuck you, no."
"Fuck you... Unless I really like you. But extra fuck you if you run a non-PC gaming platform."
I mean, why give GabeN our email addresses then?
Because it is necessary to keep your account yours for one.
You don't need an email address to run a single player game, why is that so hard for you to understand?
