Who even has the time to play the entire game catalog of top of their existing backlog? Seems way too expensive to be paying $135 or more on games that you might not have the time or interest for PlayStation Plus has not been worth what it costs for years now, save your money and cancel

mustard & onions

If you're planning to be a part of this protest, consider the following: Just cancel your $80/135/160 annual subscription.

hell, PSN going down for several hours during the opening day of the tokon beta might have more effect than this

yeah, being like "we'll wait a month until it starts, and then we're only doing it for a week" means anyone who isn't actively invested in this issue just won't take this seriously. i think discs should stay too, but people are not making good, necessary arguments for their case (no pun intended)

all the time!!

i ended up watching it at the theaters during a sibling/cousin outing

I think it came out like the year or two after covid so maybe it got lost in that fog it was a weird film cause part of it was the cast & crew clearly grappling with chadwick boseman's death, but it gets sandbagged by needing to exist as an MCU movie so there's a lot of that packed in-between

it's a-mi, aya (i turn to the judges' panel to see my score: 2/1/0/1)

What exactly is stopping them from changing it, aside from self-interest? Sure the factory may not be undone so easily, but we're talking about a multi-billion dollar corporation. They absolutely have the power to keep producing discs, and they're still capable of doing so for the next 17 months.

At this point, why even bother paying $80 each year for PS+ if they can't even get the service to work right

$80 every year for a service that locks down basic features and sometimes just doesn't even work. What a joke

That'll be $80, please! And make sure you have another $80 next year too... And the year after that...and after that...

Imagine a service that lets you use basic features intended to be used by the hardware, software, & internet plan that you already paid for and occasionally this service just happens to go down and not work at all Now imagine paying $80 every year to use that service

We lose that when everything is reduced to only being able to exist as sterile, interchangeable squares on a menu, designed to be freely disposed in favor of the next thing.

The tangibility of physical media is a reminder that people make the media you love. Behind every copy of a game, movie, music album, or anime is a story about the people who created that work and what it took to get it into your hands.

Reminder: they take money from you to offer service like this for games you already paid for

I'm sure customers love paying exorbitant fees to use basic built-in game features for service like this

Are they gonna stop putting out game key-cards?

It's not just about "having a box" or "monetary assets". That tangibility reminds you that people make the games you play. Behind each one is a story about what it took to get it into your hands. That's something we can so easily forget, especially if you reduce it all to just squares on a screen.
