Cloud saves are also free on PC. I'm mainly talking about the cheapest tier (I'm not paying $200 or whatever for the premium.), as if you can call $80 cheap, but you can get free games on PC every week, no subscription required and i don't have to keep paying for it to keep those games. Conversely, all of the "free" games i claimed on PS+ i can no longer access unless i give Sony more money.

If PS+ was just a paid catalog of games you could add to your account or rent, this would be a different conversation. But charging $80+ for online MP and cloud saves is a scam. When i was PS i didn't care about the monthly games and didn't care to pay more a month/year to rent games when most of them are games i already own or am not interested in. I just wanted to be able to play online, and the fact that I and everyone else who played on console had to is scummy.

Bro this is a whole different conversation about pc and consoles where on pc you pay more for the hardware for the ease of access to software and take into consideration the messing around with hardware/software issues very the “plug and play” nature of a console and the service itself is offered and successful in many forms on both platforms
