EDIT:
We did it, the communities uproar was heard.
And Arrowhead refused to hold Sony's beer...
Sony did take a step back on the mandatory Account Linking.
The Helldivers stood united in this literal battle for Freedom (of Steam Users).
As the Lyrics of the Song in the release trailer said oh so perfectly:
"Together we stand, divided we fall"
I will still keep the text of the initial negative Review as a memorial.

Buy this game, play it, enjoy it.
It is one of the Best.
For Liberty, For Freedom and for managed Democracy!

The game itself is one of the best i've played in recent past, an easy 10/10 in my book.
Live Service done right.

Then Sony came and asked Arrowhead to hold their beer...

With the mandatory PSN Account linking that will be enforced for new buyers and later down the line for existing Customers, I as a PC player without a Playstation and therfore no intention to create an Account for a service i will literally never use, can't recommend the game by any means, even if it's with a heavy heart.
it was a good time, but it was too good to be true
