isnt that the purpose of the subscription ? lol you want elden ring or spider man 2 ? cmon brother be realistic

[@mac1bc]

That's exactly why I like this. I'd never heard of these games but now can try them out. Looks like some challenging gameplay with Skul

[@jorgerincon6874]

​@@daverock9091 It could be if you're only playing ps plus games, I have purchased a bunch of games that seeing these games I rather stick to my backlog, only when I see something interesting I play them like sifu last month, or Destroy all humans 2 several months ago😅

[@xhontafaruci3445]

Remember when we used to get great games like god of war, hitman 2, and 100€ games like fifa now you get 1 indie game, 1 dead game and 1 game that no one has heard of and has the odacity to be a ps5 exclusive

[@xhontafaruci3445]

@Greymatter-to3th jedi fallen order, ufc 3, need for speed heat, mortal kombat x, mafia 1, mafia 2, call of duty black ops 4,minecraft dungeons, there was a fallout game but I didn't get it cuz I don't like fallout, these are all the ps+ games I have it's been 4 months in a row without a good game

[@jondoe-du2fr]

Online gaming should be free, just like it was on PS3 and Steam (PC). It's the game publishers who host their online servers, so there is absolutely no need for Sony to be ripping off those of us who don't want their F-tier games.

[@prexzone]

It keeps getting more depressing every month

[@cmn8777]

I went from adding these games to the library and never touching them to not even bothering to add them

Dude Skul is cool if you like roguelikes.

[@FlynnAJ]

Your a diamond you just reminded me to add Sifu to my library before it goes - thank you!!

[@prashanthb4565]

You lot keep saying that every year anyways. Nothing changes but the price

[@edwardfrancis8603]

They havent even stepping forward the past few months. Ps plus is trash

[@Psychof1st]

Meanwhile, xbox live gold stopped giving free games altogether for months, now! I switched to game pass ultimate a while back. Bought, a couple 12 month cards. Redeemed them. Did the $1 conversion plus 3 months free. Turned the entire remaining 2 and a 1/2 years of Gold into game pass ultimate. I did the math and saved just over $300 that way over the same time frame! I don't know if they changed Gold accounts into something else or, what they would have changed them to. But, I probably would have changed mine to cancel paying for nothing. If I hadn't started GP ultimate. I've barely touched game pass since 1 full game and sampling a few. I just don't have the time to play games nonstop every moment that I'm not at work. And most of the brand new games I want to play come out for the other systems. I've got substantial number of games added to my backlog from the past year and a half to 2 years. Plus the ones I have started I'm still trying to finish. I don't know if I'll keep game pass after that. I've used it less then any video streaming platform. And I've gone months between using one or another streaming service. I back to living with my parents. And Netflix gets good use by my mom.

[@sreedhar7266]

Sir, please add average play time for games too, it would be helpful

[@pretified3173]

That would be nice. But if you didn't already know, there's a website called howlongtobeat that shows the play time of every video games available.

Skul the Hero Slayer is actually really really fun, if you like rogue-likes and getting your balls stepped on it's a really good game.

​My man, you gotta try rogue likes. They're some of the most fun genres ever, opposite of crap@@andrewmaw3345

[@fool7244]

Happy to try Immortals this way. Was curious about this game but didn't feel like spending money on it.

[@JP-1990]

Heres an idea for how every group should be: One high profile game. One indie game. One classic game.

[@fenrirtempest]

Skul is awesome but the rest... idk

Immortals of aveum has potential, haven’t played it so I don’t know much but I followed the development for a little while so I know it doesn’t look all that bad

If you want to play multiplayer for the cheapest one just get the essential ps plus and not upgrade to more expensive ones

it really isnt thats why i keep mine at the essential tier and have it so it renews during black friday which makes it even cheaper because at full price its not really worth it
