A Helldivers 2 community manager claims they have been fired after encouraging negative Steam reviews in response to Sony's newly rescinded decision to mandate PlayStation Network account linking.
After it was announced last week that Helldivers 2 players on PC would be forced to link their PSN accounts to continue playing the game, an absolute tsunami of backlash hit both Sony and Arrowhead. As the din of protest continued to swell, community manager Spitz began to actively encourage players to make their voices heard, as it would give Arrowhead "more pull in discussions with Sony" to have the decision reversed. Well, more than 200,000 negative reviews were posted to Helldivers 2's Steam page shortly after Sony announced the change, and ultimately the decision was reversed, but not without a key casualty.
