It was a minor annoyance at worst. But it was annoying in that it revealed the clear enshitification occurring. You should put a disc in and the game should work. That’s video game history.
Can I confirm whether this outage was affecting downloaded singleplayer games? I didn’t think that would be the case.
I’ve been playing a lot of Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 on PS5 the past few days, and couldn’t even tell there was an outage.
For what it’s worth I was able to play Farm Together the whole time, it has a dedicated offline mode, that’s the only game I’ve played in ages but I’ve played the GoW games without internet plenty so I imagine that would have been fine too
Not paying for a “premium” service leaves you a second class customer. What a surprise…
operational issue
Why be so vague? That’s only ever going to frustrate people.
Somebody fucked something up, exactly how specific do you want them to be?
It was “Dan’s fault!”
Fair
Why does Sony always feel like you could replace anything they say with “You should consider yourself lucky we allow you to play our games.”
I canceled my subscription last week, just before it was time to renew.
I’m going back to PC gaming full time. If in time everything is coming to PC anyway, I rather wait and have it all on one system with a Nintendo system next to it.
PS Plus is a joke and anyone paying for it needs to rethink what they are actually paying for
PS4 was when I switched to PC for a majority of my games except exclusives. I refused to pay for PS+ to play online, since I enjoyed my free online on the PS3 the past Gen.
Picked up a long hdmi cable back then so I could enjoy the couch gaming experience when I felt like it. So that stopped being a selling point for consoles for my use case.
When you’re ready, I started using Bazzite for an htpc, and it’s phenomenal. A PC console, like I’ve always wanted
I want to swap my alienware aurora to linux but I’m struggling to find a distro that I know will be compatible with my hardware. Is there a list for bazzite driver support? I’m sure all my hardware will work in most linux distros geared toward gaming but it’d be nice to have some assurance beforehand.
Just a suggestion: try installing on a spare drive first, and disconnect the original ones
That’s the plan no matter what but always glad to hear from the voices of experience.
Also even if you use a mechanical drive or anything, once it’s working it’s super easy to migrate your installation to another drive with
ddOh awesome! Thank you
