I've never understood why players can't demand a refund when a fundamental aspect of a game changes.

Well, to be fair, they did write - in bold letters - on the Steam page that a Playstation network account is required to play.

They simply didn't enforce that rule up until now.

I thought someone had gone to the waybackmachine and confirmed that it said it was optional initially and changed it when they made this decision?

That was PirateSoftware, and yes, but that was for Sony's website not for the Steam page.

Still shit though.

That was Sony's site. Super shitty what they did there.

But on the Steam Store page it was always "a PS account is required".
