WHY SHOULD WE HAVE TO PAY TO PLAY DBD

Idk what the hell the SIM card and internet shi is about but considering that the game is now cross progression enable and practically all games like Fortnite, Roblox, etc, you don’t need a subscription and it’s dumb now that’s it’s still there cause PC don’t even have to pay a dime to play DBD, just get the game and that’s it while console gotta deal with the month subscription which has raised up overtime and made it harder for people to get it. Say you get the PS + subscription for a year which is now 80, used to be 60, times that by the amount of years you will play DBD, let’s say 7, 80, 7 is $560 just to play DBD for that specific time and again, not a time for PC $0. Yell at me all you want , yap at me, put the dogs on me, do it I’m waiting

    You do not get DBD for free on PC, i had to pay for it. It was free on Epic games for one month many months ago but it was on ps+ as well.

    You're whining to the wrong people. go whine to Sony about non-free games requiring PS+ to play online.

    Wait, you need to constantly pay for subscription in order to play a game on PS? :D

    You are being openly scammed.

    Yep, it's always been that way since the PS3. It's why I don't really bother with console gaming anymore.

    As long as console users don't massively understand consoles companies are scamming them with their "network" subscription, they'll continue to get milked.

    I mean, yeah the 80$ a year for PS+ is rather annoying but I would hope you're not getting it just to play DBD. At that point I would just go to PC if that's your only game you play online. PS+ also comes with a few free games a month and at least for me, I get my monies worth out of it. I play quite a few of the games and more often then not there is at least a couple a year I was going to buy anyway. Deadspace is coming this month which is exciting as that was one my wishlist'd games.

    But yeah, if you're getting PS+ or whatever the Xbox equivalent is only for DBD, then I would either switch to PC or save up now and then to try and buy one.

    This is not a DBD problem, this is a console problem. PC players don't have to pay a monthly subscription to play their games, on any launcher or game.

    Look into buying a decent second hand computer, it's worth it over console. No better time since BHVR just added cross progression. You can use a PS controller on PC too if you prefer to play that way, but you need either a USB-C to USB cable or Bluetooth on the computer.
