If you don't, you'll probably pay $4.99, and it will only be yours to play for a limited amount of time. You're not "buying" anything. This whole service should be a part of PS+ and the fact that it isn't is just pure BS. I am not a fanboy, of any company anymore. I know the Sony fanboys are eating this up with a spoon, but the fact is, while it's a really nice feature tech wise....it's a total middle finger as far as cost. No one should put up with this kind of business practice and the fact that people DO, only makes things worse. |
i would say lets wait and see. the thing is, this will be on mobiles, tablets and tvs, so it will certainly reach more people and a lot of them wont probably even have a playstation. we dont know the sub model, so it might be like this. make a sub for those who dont even have a playstation and PS+ for a differenct price, probably cheaper than PS+ so the new consumers dont have to be forced to get a PS+ sub that they dont care about. and maybe PS+ subs would get some games with their subscribtion.
get my point? it might be a matter of not trying to force users who dont have a PS+ to get PS+ but offering a more cheaper sub. we have to wait and see how PS+ subs are treated. but i am with you, i DO NOT like the idea of having to pay TWO paywalls. but again, we dont know enough to judge.
