Where are you getting the info that you get to keep your PS plus games if you stop your sub.

As for something like Elden Ring on any game on GP, you do have the option to purchase for a discount which I have done a few times.

As far as we know, once you added a PS+ game to your library it will always be there. If at any moment you stop subbing you won't be able to play it, but at any given moment you come back it will be playable just fine. So what he was saying was that on subs like GP you may have to stop playing what you are hyped to play so you don't lose the window of that title availability while on PS+ you just add to your backlog and play whenever you want after finishing what you are doing. Now I don't know how GotG works, but that was what he was talking.

Elden Ring isn't on GP, and the point was not for the games you purchase, because those obviously are yours to keep (unless odd circumstances that can happen with fully digital purchases on any platform).

OK, in that respect yes.  Its the same as Games with GOLD which is included with GP Ultimate so pretty much the same situation.
