I am curious how this is going to effect the number of active players. I know a lot of people who were trying to get me to play this saying it was here to stay and not a trend like a Lethal Company but I feel like this hurdle might be enough to get them to give up.

I definitely have a low level of tolerance for Russian nesting dolls of accounts and launchers.

Well, a number of countries will be forced out, simply because PSN is not available there. Especially the philipinos seem so be quite upset.

PSN is available in 69 countries around the world. (Source: https://www.playstation.com/country-selector/index.html)

right now there are (roughly) 190 independent countries in the world.

The whole of Africa (except for SA; thanks to u/ItzOnza), Egypt and even european countries like Belarus don't have PSN.

The Baltics - states that are part of the european union - are also excluded.

These people can't create accounts.
