Horizon Zero Dawn

It's not working for me. It says it can't connect to the internet and that I need a Playstation account to play.

Possibly something to do with me being on Linux and using Gamescope to enable HDR...

Edit: Nope, it's not that. I'll try a reinstall

If you're still having issues, add this to the Steam Launch options -showlinkingqr
 
On Steam I just clicked B to skip signing into PSN, nice that this game has that option unlike a couple others.
Where is that option?

That has progressed me a bit further thanks in that I now get the option to proceed to login to/create a Playstation account but I don't have one and don't want one so what now?
 
Never mind. I've requested a refund.

Maybe I'm missing something but I absolutely hate these underhand tactics to get people to sign up and share their data. Nowhere that I can see does it state that a PS account is required and it's certainly not a requirement of the original PC games so it should be in big letters somewhere IMO. According to Steam I've had 25 minutes game time already and I've actually not managed to launch the thing fully yet. :mad:
 
It says it almost immediately under the header image on the game page. But yes, it's a grab, I can't say it isn't advertised well though
 
Thanks.

I see on the store page it now says "Requires 3rd-Party Account: PlayStation Network (Supports Linking to Steam Account)"

I don't think that was there when I pre-ordered and I can't see any way to bypass it.
 
It was there a few days ago when I had checked the price, I'd (hope/think) they realised this would be a source of complaints but refunds are usually easy enough on Steam.
I don't think there's a way to bypass no, I hate things like this that add 0 value
