>everything I want should be free. Companies should have to GIVE me things because I want it.

It's the "not having to play against third worlders" tax

>>387071443
But certain fields pay you to think like this tho

>>387071274
Why are you bothered by me spending money you didn't earn and don't have?

My money my choice.

See, this is what I mean. These companies are fucking you in the ass and you justify it in anyway possible. Tell me, how good is the online with their subscriptions? Did it really change anything? Did it improve the netcode or the servers of the game? Was it really worth it?

No. No it wasn't. On PC I don't see that happen unless with specific games and these are shit too, but keep justifying paying for online and maybe they'll think of ways to fuck you even more. Maybe they'll throw a shitty indie game for your convenience

>>387071740
Because you cuck allowed the fact that paying for online became the industry standard.

>>387071274
I can justify it this way: there's nothing wrong with making easy money off dumbasses

>>387071443
You already pay to use the internet

>>387071274
I don't. Not a cuck. I'm satisfied enough with my PC and the hundreds of games I have yet to play from GoG.

It's not justifiable, but I don't have a choice so I do it anyway/

>>387072282
Right, why would you want to willingly get ass raped by consoles to pay for internet TWICE?

>>387072414
People get outrage on many things. Paying for mods, not being able to play used games, yet online pay creeped in and everyone's okay with it. I would honestly bet if people got mad at paying online, we wouldn't have it today

>people say you have to pay online with consoles
>refuses to acknowledge that the ps3 had free online
try harder

>>387071274
Agreed. The funny thing is that people defend it by calling you poor. I already pay for my cable so why should I have to pay even more to play a game that I already purchased to play online? Pay to play online games/consoles are cancer and should never be bought.

>>387071274
People who justify this are downright retarded.

It's like paying gas for your car, but you'd also have to pay the gas station for someone to pour your gas in. I don't need to do that, I already paid my gas I can pour it on my own. But you can't put the gas in your car unless you pay the gas station to pour it.

Does anyone else wish they could just make the ps4 $450 and scrap paid online?

>>387072916
PS3 is one of the better consoles for sure but it's slowly dying off. I can at least play fighting games online since they still release it on it

>>387073040
What the fuck. They should just keep it at the same price without online. It NEVER needed it before why would it be needed now.

Imagine if /v/ spent as much time playing online on PC as they do whining about paid online

Why do you think the ps3 was $599 and the xbox wasn't?

They obviously know 99.99999 percent of people will pay for paid online so lower the initial price and get it paid back through ps plus.

No hackers

>>387073435
The PS3 was $599 out of pure greed, not because they needed the high prices to "maintain online service". Because they lowered the price and still didn't need paid online. It's also inexcusable since PC has had free online since forever.

There are still hackers on consoles, what are you talking about?

>>387073804
Where does this "no hackers" meme come from?? Well known games on PC by AAA companies don't have hackers and AA, Free to play, indie games barely have hackers. And consoles STILL have hackers. So why do people keep insisting with this fucking meme.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahaha

Good one.

Why didnt Sony keep their multiplayer free?
What are MS and Sony doing with Membership money?

There's party-chat, digital games management, monthly free indie games, some deals, but then what? Does this justify the 60$/yr? It's not much but with the amount of subscribers, certainly there's lot of money left after paying for support on all that.

I guess the money goes to the shitty UI overhauls happening every x months as well.

>>387071274
You get free games every month on xbone and ps4, yes alot are bad but there is always going to be a few each year that you enjoy which more than makes up the price alone. Not to mention discounts on other games.

>>387074678
>free

>>387071443
1. I already pay for internet
2. I already paid for the game

TF2 turned to shit because of you fags after it went F2p it went all downhill from there

The cost of a years subscription is about the same as one full priced game but you get a fuck load of games each year, its an outrageously good deal even if you lose the games after the year which I don't think you do with Xbox?

Maybe you cunts should try enjoying some games you haven't played yet instead of being cynical retards.

>>387076881
Half the time the "free games" aren't worth it.
