Will you continue to support Sony/Playstation/PS+ after the recent announcement?
Long time Sony fan consumer here, bought every home console from the PS1 to the 30th Anniversary Edition PS5. Ive been subscribed to PS+ for over a decade now, but every year it gets harder and harder to justify supporting this company with its non-stop anti-consumer practices. From requiring a paid subscription to access online gaming, to removing fully purchased digital libraries, the fight against Stop Killing Games, the constant increasing costs of PS+ and for the first time ever increasing costs of consoles, the heavy investment in Live Service slop and threat of reduncines/closures for their developers, and now the removal of physical media from next generation of consoles, me personally I've had enough.
Yes, the savings and benefit of PS+ is great, but the fact that as a whole you basically do not get to own any more games, and these can be removed at any time, in a monopolised controlled market with every increasing costs, its becoming less and less consumer friendly.
Are there anyone else who are considering making this generation their last Sony console purchase, or even considering quitting the gaming industry altogether?
EDIT: Seems a lot of people dont care about the physical games because they purchase digitally anyway. But they're completely ignoring the fact Sony, Rockstar and other corporations have the abilitiy to kill and remove your digitally purchased games entirely sometimes even without warning if they want. Sony literally did that with 500 digitally purchased movie titles, is that a practice you support?
