As a person who owns a PS4 and owned a PS3. One of the pros of getting a PS3 over an Xbox 360 was you did not have to pay for playing online and PS plus being just a nice little thing you could opt for deals and free shit.

I only use PS plus to play online games and if it were free to play online I would not get it because the only other good thing about it is the free games which usually consist of 4 shit titles for the PS4.
No Sony, I do not want to play 4 shitty indie titles every months, fuck you.

I think I only every download Limbo, MGS GZ and Rocket League.
Pisses me off that PS3 gets great free titles but my shitty one died.

That's exactly what's happening at the end of the day. It's not literally what you're paying for directly, but at the end of the day you're paying twice to play a game online. Once for your ISP access, once to get past Sony's walls and let you into the servers they don't even fucking host.

>>332479336

He does have a point though. PS+ isn't just paid online. They put online play behind PS+ because they want to incentivize more people to try the service. It's the same reason Nintendo makes limited prints and split versions so you will buy the rest on the e-shop. I hate paid online because I don't need PS+, but it's amazing how many people here think the only reason people use it is to pay for online. Depending on how you use the service, it's actually quite affordable and a decent value for your average user.

And the only reason anyone would actually care that it's a stupid claim is if they're paying twice to play games online and are insecure about it and trying to rationalize it to yourself.

It was a hyperbolized statement against Sony, you only got asshurt and felt the need to defend it because you're a butthirt sonyfag who's paying twice for online.
Nice try, kiddo
>>
>>332479880

That's exactly why they do it though. PS+ was not tied to online originally and still isn't for PS3 and Vita. Have you not paid attention to gaming in the past decade? Digital sales have much better margins, just look at Valve.

You didn't even read my post. I am not defending paid online. You literally ignored the fact I said I hate paid online because I do not benefit from PS+. Fuck off.

You're erroneously assuming that all consumption is for private usage. Any time professionals want to screen films or share songs, they can't pirate even though they might already do so for their private use. When the choice is between losing your job or buying a legal copy, people abide by the law.

Netflix actually provides you a service that costs money, access to movies and TV shows. That comparison wouldn't make any sense unless PS+ is actually getting you the games, not allowing you to play them on the developer's own servers.

You're an idiot.
>>
>>332480535
>PS+ is actually getting you the games

But PS+ actually gives games.
>>
>>332480608
That's irrelevant, because I still need PS+ to play a game I purchased myself online.

Imagine if Netflix separately sold extra movies and shows that aren't on their regular service, but you couldn't watch them unless you also subbed to Netflix. Now imagine there was another digital retailer that sold those same extra shows, but you could just watch them from buying them alone.
That's what's happening here.
>>
>>332476642
No, that's exactly what's happening. The only actual service required to play games online is internet, just because Sony puts up a fake toll to get through to servers they aren't even paying for doesn't mean that's another legitimate service you're paying for.

All you need to play a video game online is an internet connection. Paid online is literally paying twice to use your own internet.
>>
The difference among the games offered by PS+ before and after this decision was made is HUGE.

Doesn't matter I guess, even if they charged more for the service it would still be a success because people are retarded.
>>
>>332480809
>That's irrelevant,

It's not irrelevant. You think PS+ doesn't provide a service that costs money and I just proved you wrong. How much those games are worth is a point of contempt but don't act like PS+ is just paying for online.
>>
>>332481756
>You think PS+ doesn't provide a service that costs money and I just proved you wrong.
No you fucking retard, when you just want to play games online you're paying money for something that isn't worth a cent.

If all I want is online play, I have to give them money for it. If you don't want the free games, tough shit, you either pay for it or don't get to play online which is free on the other platform.

Playing online on PC is free, on PS4 it isn't. There's no defending or arguing it. Tossing in some shitty prizes doesn't change that.
>>
>>332482206
>No you fucking retard, when you just want to play games online you're paying money for something that isn't worth a cent.

Nobody cares about how you feel. PS+ gets you access to stuff you don't care about but they cost Sony money regardless of your fee fees.

If I'm forced to buy other stuff I may not even want to play online "for free," that's still the exact same problem.

What is it with you guys so desperately in need of a strawman? I'm not justifying anything, I'm saying it like it is. It's a fucking service that ties the online multiplayer into it. How much that is worth to anyone is not my problem, but it is what it is.

>PC lets me play online out of the box for free, PS4 makes me sub to a service to do it. That's all there is to it.

Yes indeed. It is not making you pay twice for your internet as retards have claimed. It's a paywall that Sony never hid from anyone, everyone who's got a PS4 knows what they're getting into. I mean, PC is free and all but doesn't everyone know this? Maybe if PC players acted more like human beings and not rotten elitist douches they could sell PC gaming better and the consoles everyone here hates would disappear.
