Unfortunately,God of War Ragnarok’s PC release has not gone as smoothly as Sony may have hoped.
While I can personally attest toGod of War Ragnarokon PC running like a dream and delivering a top-of-the-line experience, the game is still finding itself at the center of controversy. Disgruntled PC gamers have blastedGod of War Ragnarok’s Steam page with negative reviews, bringing its overall rating down to “Mixed.” The main issue that PC gamers have withGod of War Ragnarokis that itrequires purchasers to have a PlayStation Network accountto play. This is an inconvenience for many PC gamers, and it seems especially unnecessary for a single-player game likeRagnarok.
