PSN Online ID Change...Did you take the leap of faith?
- Thread starter Rockstar
- Start date
I'm surprised at the level of fear here. We beta tester the fuck out of it and there still have been such limited issues (I haven't heard of any but I admittedly don't put the research in)
yep I did day 1 and had zero issues and many on my friends list did as well. I dont know what all the fear was about. Fake fear tactics type stuff stopped some people from doing it.
So the name I wanted to change to was already taken... by my EU account, lol.
However, i did change it to something very similar to the name I have here on Era (and twitter, twitch, instagram, etc.)
Someone actually reached out to me with "Nooooo... I will always remember you as xenorevlis!"
Was kind of heart warming, albeit sad heh. No problems to report, though.

FAQ definitely says you may lose progress towards trophies, which I count as trophy data. So, yeah with Shadowfall and those MP trophies, it's absolutely not worth it.
No, although I wanted to. I originally made my first PSN account using SkullHydra back when it was first available as a child account or whatever they were called. At the time I was wanting to have a full account instead of the limited child one, there wasn't the ability to change one to the other, and I made a new one with SkuIIHydra [Uppercase i].
With the fact that you can't use an account that's been used before, I may never be able to use the correct name on my active account even though I have access to both.

Literally just changed it because this thread reminded me. I was going to not bother but I took a look and saw "NightShiftXD" was available so...
And yeah, the negatives are taken way out of proportion. PS3/PSP/Vita games are not effected and the list of games with major issues is so small and they're not really popular.

Yep, changed mine and no problems that I noticed, even with games that potentially could have had issues.
My new one is much better, just a slightly abbreviated version of my username here. Whilst I won't miss my old one, it's a shame my silly piss take of Phil Harrison from 13 years ago isn't still around as 'the Overlander' himself has once again reappeared to delight and enthrall us with his streaming box.

Is there any list of (Vita) games that are affected? Only have a Vita but I've also sunk a ton of time into a few games that I'd hate to lose. There was another thread on this topic where someone checked the games they owned, but I haven't been able to find anything else.

Although it only lists PS4 games. The ID change is not supported on PS3, PSP and Vita so I assume there are no issues there.
