I do have a part to play. I am not blameless in all of this - it was my decision to disable account linking at launch so that players could play the game. I did not ensure players were aware of the requirement and we didn't talk about it enough.

We knew for about 6 months before launch that it would be mandatory for online PS titles.

Wait... if you knew about it for 6 months then why sell it to Non-PSN countries???

We do not handle selling the game.
