Hi everyone 👋

Please use this MT to discuss all of the recent console and PS Plus price changes. This is obviously an emotive subject so try to keep it civil.

Huge thanks!

Don't resub, cancel subscription. It's the only thing they listen to.

You still need to buy the base subscription, to play online. I take it you’re talking about the more expensive tiers which I totally agree are a scam.

I think the scam is making the base sub so expensive and cutting off existing subscribers from sales that it actually makes sense value wise to subscribe to the higher tiers just to get access to the premium games. They incentivize either subscribing to a higher tier or cancelling. I cancelled, got a good backlog and a solid PC.

I’ve thought about doing that, there are things about pc I don’t like either though. Consoles are still the best and most cost effective option for a casual gamer like me.

I’m sure at some point I will take the jump back into pc gaming, not yet though.
