eh, just give some apologize items, cosmetics or credits, then it'll go back to be the most praised game again.

If they hadn't forced it and instead would've gone like "Hey if you link a PSN account you get this special <Sony IP branded> item set and achievements" people would've done it willingly.

Not everyone, but a good amount. Then they could've gauged the percentage of non-PSN linked players and re-evaluate.

Basically Sony went with the stick and never even attempted a carrot.

"let them eat cake".

Honestly if they gave some reward and still kept the login it would have washed over in a week.
