For a live service game like Helldivers you could at least logically justify the account requirement but for an offline game like GoW it will just piss people.
But you could come up with a believable reason for multiplayer. (Ex. Maybe the devs decided their servers wouldn’t scale and had to move to Sony’s, but those require users to have a Sony account.)
For single player, there’s not even a hypothetical excuse. They just want you to be inconvenienced for their own gain.
Pirate it. Simple as.
Unless it has denuvo of course
Require a PSN account? My first thought was “arrrrr, not I!”
I wonder if this move will be a good incentive for pirating Sony’s games… I guess we will find out.

Not justifiable but one can weave some twisted logic to explain it. With single player games there is even less explanation.
