I am a PS+ member since almost 1 year and it's a great service but I have this crazy thing of thinking that whenever something is free it immediately drops in value for me, except for the very first seconds after an announcement when I tend to think "wow, what a bargain, I am really lucky".

For example, I was planning to get Hitman from the bargain bin at 20 Euros or something, but now that I know will get it for free I feel like I will never even bother to play it.

"Free" translates to "not worth my time" in my mind and I almost can't control it.

Does anyone feel even remotely the same?

I feel the same way about pirated games now (I pirated quite a few games back in the day). I don't feel this way about Plus games that I'm interested in though, because at least I paid for the subscription way back when.

You have a point about the subscription. I try to remind myself that I'm actually paying a little bit and they're not truly free, all these games, and that I should take the chance and enjoy them. But it still feels like they are free. The service has crazy value anyway, so I will continue my subscription.

I'm happy you admit that you felt just like I did about pirated PC games. When I go back to PC gaming I might become a legit user (Steam) but I'm not sure yet lol.
