One time password /sigh

[Taylor-MadeAK]

I really doubt it happens this way. Strong passwords, common sense.

Also, SE makes you link you account to the software license. Any changes or updates to the SE account generate an email notification. For a "hacker" to be that determined to hack the account, register THEIR copy of the software to my account, intercept the notification email... just so they can rmt, bot or merch my gear? You'll never convince me it's worth all that effort.

Only for the PSN version. The PC version has no such restriction. You can take your username and password that you use with your PS3/PS4 version and login with the PC client on any computer anywhere in the world the authentication system doesn't care. No e-mail is generated. No red flag is raised. No alarms are sounded.

Just because you don't think it's worth the effort doesn't mean that it doesn't happen. Over, and over, and over, and over. Being a console gamer does not protect you.
