I hope some mods come out that allows it to be skippable for single player games. I wonder what this means for the future of Playstation games on GOG, since Sony had been releasing games there.
They're referring to Sony's stance that all their PC releases should require you to have and sign-in to a PSN account. That's separate to PS+, you don't need to pay a sub.
A lot of publishers include this requirement on their PC releases, regardless of whether they're single-player or multiplayer, and I think a lot of people are fed up with having to have so many different accounts.
PSN account is free, you probably already have one if you owned one of the last 3 PlayStation consoles. There are paid add-ons if you want the multiplayer or the gamepass like subscription.
Edit
What's with all the downvotes, it's literally an answer to the question. You fellas mad I didn't editorialize the information with personal opinions?
Starting with this one, it's a requirement on PC, yes. Hopefully they do away with it due to lost sales, but they're still at least pretending that they're somehow going to convert PC players into console players.
