God of War Ragnarök mod bypassing PSN requirement vanishes

The release of God of War Ragnarök on PC hasn’t been all that easy, with many bemoaning the technical issues and steep requirements needed to run the game. But the most unpopular requirement is that you have to have a PlayStation Network account in order to play.

This has led to the game getting several mixed reviews on Steam simply because of the PSN backlash, and some players taking matters into their own hands to find some workarounds. One player by the name of iArtorias created a mod that allowed people to bypass the PSN requirement, and even vowed to keep the mod online as long as possible. However, an update by Nexus mods seems to have dashed any hopes of that, as the site tweeted a message stating that the PSN-bypass mod was removed by the author and that the site was working on contacting them to figure out why.
