You may say Sony sequestrated their right, but if they really though the service or the console hadn't value it wouldn't break all records as the fatest selling Playstation console. It really is as simple as that. People see little value on WiiU, restricted value on X1 (need a lower price and still sell lot less) and a lot of value. If they think the MP is worth the 50 they pay for it, if not they would see alternatives... you just want me to answer a dumb question if I would preffer something for free or to pay. And the thing is, the answer doesn't need to be dumb, the answer will depend of the context. I preffer to pay a health insurance than to use the "free" service the government provides (altough I already pay for it through taxes) and IF I liked MP online and the choice would be free and bad versus cheap and good I would choose the second one. And considering a lot of complaints were made about the quality of the free PSN but a lot less is made about the price of PSN+ I would say people have made their choice very clear. And if you want to deny that please show some evidence instead of saying that because you don't see value in it then there is no value. |
Seeing value and having no other avenue is something totally different. Can you tell me where is this alternative for Console gamers who own a PS4.
I see no value in adding MP to PS+ because all the MP games are peer to peer. Did you not read that part. Peer to Peer does not need PSN and if PSN is down causes MP to not be available then that is a design problem with PSN not the protocols used for MP gaming. Hell, even Sony does not provide dedicated servers for match making for only a few of their 1st party games. During the PS3, days the service was bad not for MP within games but when you wanted to use PSN for anything else. I believe you are getting confused about PSN and what it provides and what it does not.
