It's annoying, but it's like an Origin account for an EA game or something. At least with crossplay, having one admin team to manage bans on both platforms makes sense to streamline things.

How do you think bans are working right now? You realize that you don't HAVE to have an account. All they do is assign a mirrored account to your steam ID on PSN. Or even just assign you a random one in general.

Nothing about this process streamlines anything any further, they're already doing it.

I know. I'm going to be playing tonight. I didn't bat an eye at this announcement... Mainly because it's been known since day one. People are acting like this is new information. And I don't care if less people play. Still will have plenty of players. I play with cross play turned off on PS5 to avoid cheaters anyway... so this literally isn't going to change anything for me.

They already sold many times more than they ever expected.
