God of War Ragnarok PC Mod Removes the PSN Account Requirement; Patch 2 Fixes NVIDIA DLSS Frame Gen
As reported in a previous article, Steam users are blasting God of War Ragnarok for Sony's decision to mandate linking of a PlayStation Network account to play the game, as well as for some performance issues.
Thankfully, iArtorias already created a mod that removes the PSN account requirement by stripping away the PlayStation PC SDK runtime requirement. To install the mod, just download the latest release and copy the version.dll and PsPcSdk.dll files to the game folder. The modder also noted that users still encountering the login screen error should remove this file: C:\Users\[Username]\\Saved Games\God of War Ragnarök\[AccountID]\userpreferences. Also, upon the first popup that asks to link the Steam account, press the "NO" button. Some users have reported that blocking the GoWR.exe file with the firewall also helps in some cases.
