Curious about the burner account. Seen a few people mention it.

What happens when Sony has yet another breach, and forces people to change passwords, or you type the wrong shit and get locked out.

You have no access to the game anymore because of burner account. Thinking yet another login being forced isn't an issue because burner account is probably worse then just not buying shit that forces accounts.

For this specific scenario? Pretty sure you can just unlink through steam and link to a new account, but honestly that's a future me problem :D

ETA: You can use a forwarding service like SimpleLogin or duck.com
