God of War Ragnarok's Steam Rating Controversy

God of War Ragnarok's Steam Launch Met with Mixed Reception Amidst PSN Requirement Backlash

The PC release of God of War Ragnarok on Steam has sparked controversy, resulting in a "Mixed" user review score. Many fans are review-bombing the game in protest of Sony's mandatory PlayStation Network (PSN) account requirement. Launched last week, the game currently holds a 6/10 rating on the platform.

Sony's decision to require a PSN account for this single-player title has baffled and angered many players, directly fueling the negative reviews.

Interestingly, some players report successfully playing the game without linking a PSN account. One review states, "I understand the frustration over the PSN requirement; it's annoying when single-player games force online features. But I played fine without logging in. It's a shame; these reviews will deter people from an amazing game."

Other negative reviews cite technical issues, such as a black screen after launch, falsely reporting playtime even without completing the game. One user commented, "The PSN requirement ruined the experience. The game got stuck on a black screen after launch, and it falsely registered 1 hour 40 minutes of playtime. Unbelievable!"

Despite the negative reviews, positive feedback exists, praising the game's story and gameplay. Many attribute the negative scores solely to Sony's PSN requirement. A positive review reads, "The story is excellent, as expected. The negative reviews are mostly about the PSN issue. Sony needs to address this; otherwise, it's a fantastic PC port."

This situation mirrors the backlash Sony faced with Helldivers 2, which also initially required a PSN account. Following significant criticism, Sony reversed that decision. The current situation with God of War Ragnarok leaves Sony facing a similar challenge.
