I think there is a lot os misconceptions going on here: There is no reason to increase the price over features because their costs are mainly from development, not maintenance. It's basically the costs of minor software development and is like a grain of sand in a beach compared to true development costs, if they use some standard features as a reason to increase the prices I will but laugh at the excuse to fool anyone who doesn't understand a thing about software development. Seems exactly the kind of thing Nintendo would do though I digress Seems like you are mixing the prices with PSN and NSO because you somewhat thinking the costs to hold multiplayer servers and develop multiplayer features is the reason why they are asking additional money. You are fatally wrong, PSN prices are set mainly to recover the money they spend for performance rights for the games they add monthly, you are seeing Nintendo suffering from this with their new plan that also include Sega Games, although the value proposition of new subscription upgrade is indeed laughable compared to PSN. Granted both Sony and Nintendo are just exploring their fans because in the end of day there is no reason to charge for online, Sony at least give us a quality connection and some free games I would otherwise not play Great they worked for "every other game", but when I needed them, It didn't worked for me period (and in the games I found the most important, because they were infinite games, not single player campaigns you cannot retain or progress), it's totally unacceptable there is no easier and seamless cloud save for games that are BUILD on time progression and do not reset, why can't I just download an Animal Crossing save from cloud like I do with most of games? I can only cherry pick games I've played because that's on what my experience is based. I play Crash Team Racing, Street Fight V, Dark Souls 3, Monster Hunter World and Civ VI. All them works well and smooth, the only Nintendo games that works as well is, as I said, Mario Kart 8, Among Us and Fortnite (ok, this one I've played for only 6 hours, but was nice still). The games that annoyed me with bad online on PS4 were FF XIV and Dauntless, that games that annoyed me in Switch where Smash, Splatoon 2, Animal Crossing and Ninjala. So far my multiplayer experience with PS4 has been comfortably better, and that's it. I tried CTR on Switch to compare how it plays compared to PS4, but unfortunately I've not found any match. Maybe I should try Dauntless, it's also free on Switch As for family plan, dude, do you want me to find random people online and give my email so we can share bills? Seems like you have a weird standard of what you find intrusive - Joining your gamming session? Totally intrusive - Sharing a subscription account with people you only know online? Oh that's neat, count me in |
What makes your first paragraph truly hilarious is that is exactly what Sony did. Took the primary reason for people to connect online(online multiplayer) and put it behind a paywall and add a bunch of bull to justify highjacking the primary want. Yet of course let shit on Nintendo for atleast giving me the cheapest way possible to pay for something I shouldn't. Psn is not some savior for charging me 60 for nothing I want. Psn existed on Ps3 with free online and no one cared. People don't want a pay wall no matter the nonsense Sony adds to justify it. Nintendo atleast gives me an option to Payless than 5 dollars a year.
Sony also doesn't give me a better connection because these companies most of the time host their own servers. No matter the console I am connecting to the SAME server.
Your experience may very well be due to user error because those games do allow transfers. Maybe read carefully next time?
People can freely join your games but exchanging emails is intrusive? And bills lmao? If 5 dollars a year is a bill then I don't know what to tell you?
I'll finish with this, I completely understand what you are saying eventhough I think some of it is bull. I personally think ninty could do better but my point is so can the others. I see no reason for Sony to not have a family plan or even a plan that separates the multiplayer & games. I get sick on the shit that gets flung at Nintendo but Sony doesn't get that same treatment for nonsense.
