The amount of hate that this game garnered is very unexpected..
It was one of the most loved and appreciated game that loved by the fans and turned into hate with just one update
Which to be fair... Fans have a decent reasoning of why would they hate the game immediately..
It basically says that they need to connect their accounts to the PlayStation Network account (PSN) which became famous with a history of a lot of hackings and information breach. And fans didn't like this update since they felt that their information would be in risk if they connected to the PSN..
So fans gets angry because their good game will either be unavailable or will give them risk which it will turn into a bad game, but they don't want that since the game is actually good :3
