PC modder removes annoying PSN account requirement for God of War Ragnarök

Enlarge / Artist's conception of angry PC gamers launching an attack on PSN sign-in requirements. (credit: Sony) Sony's decision to require a PlayStation Network sign-in for the PC port of the single-player God of War Ragnarök is drawing expected levels of ire from frustrated PC gamers. Now, though, those angry players can actually do something about the problem thanks to a new mod that removes the PSN log-in requirement from the game entirely. The NoPSSDK mod, hosted on NexusMods, promises to "fully strip the PlayStation PC SDK runtime requirement for God of War Ragnarok." The open source mod makes use of a simple Microsoft Detours library to get around the game's calls to the PlayStation Network API without "touch[ing] or modify[ing] any original game code." The mod, which has already seen one update related to simulating offline mode, has been downloaded just under 2,000 times as of this writing.
