I just got this email from Sony. My kids use their profiles offline (meaning they don’t even have a playstation account) on their PS4, and use my games. And now they want to allow kids to link their other accounts (my kids only have a SimpleX user to chat with their family, LOL).
The sad thing is that a lot of parents will go: “Nice, they can now have it all in one place!”
Love how they say this at the end:
Stay tuned for more details. In the meantime, we recommend talking to your child about account linking so that they can safely enjoy these new features while playing on PlayStation.
They fucking call these FEATURES!
Enshitification at its finest. Maybe built a small form factor with games from GOG
