Why hasn't PS Now taken off? In terms of the games you can download I think it's got a library just as good as Game Pass. Is it lack of advertising? Lack of offers?
Why hasn't PS Now taken off...
The biggest problem is that you cannot download PS3 titles, they have to be streamed which sucks if your internet is hot garbage.
SEVERE Lack of Marketing
Can only stream on PC
And like every other game streaming service you need god tier internet for it to work well
>I think it's got a library just as good as Game Pass

Yeah, that's fair. I just don't know if most normalfags are that put off by it but I could be wrong
I might take Game Pass for granted but idk

Complete mystery user
Quality is shit. At least its worth it on ps4 if you don't wanna buy the newest AAA exclusive but no one knows that you can download the games. They should add more ps3 games or port them. Stuff like JoJo, Folklore or 3d Dot Heroes would be much better than white knight chronicle.
library nowhere near as good as game pass, and the "new" games come too late and go too early (you can play a 2017 game FOR THREE MONTHS and then it's gone). Many of the games end up coming to psplus anyways.
It's still worth it on sale or to get a month every once in a while but it's not essential.
Is it streaming only?
Lack of avaliability across the world.
>>Continually paying to play games you will never own
Game Pass is exactly the same but that's doing pretty great
>and the "new" games come too late
You're right about this. Didn't consider that
Some of it's stream only, some of it you can download
PS Now gets the Game Pass leftovers. This month Dishonored 2 and Metro Exodus that were on game pass last year.
a kike can dream
85% of the library is shovelware, lego games and episodic trash. 15% are decent games but i already bought and played them.
Game Pass also gives out dollar and free subscriptions CONSTANTLY
I mean, 45 dollars (during spring sale) for a year to play games I will never replay once I beat anyway, so there's no reason to own them. As far as bang for your buck, it literally can't be beat
They made it shit on purpose to get microshit back into the gaming industry after they ejected themselves out of it with the xbone launch
People still cant get it into their heads that sony and microsoft are apart of the same corporate mafia who have a fake rivalry but in reality are working together to rip off gamers and keep the scam going
I would buy it if they put persona back on
because streaming games is fucking retarded. it should've been like game pass where you can locally download the game, and had streaming for external devices.
720p streaming in the year 2020.
Reminder that it would be going into next gen like this, were it not for the Azure deal with Microsoft.
Sony is baffingly stupid.
it is like that for PS4 games
>45 dollars (during spring sale) for a year to play games I will never replay once I beat anyway, so there's no reason to own them
>Starts off with nearly every damn thing being able to run it, even smart TVs
>Scale back compatibility to barebone levels, after months
Did Sony decide to hate money?
shieeeet, you're right
Just buy a month or two and play all the games you haven't yet played.
Staying subscribed the whole time is for saps.
game pass only works because MS is desperate for a better image once people accept paying for it prices will increase.
He says as sony increased price because of how shit ghostbusters was.
Why is sony's attachment rate so low compared to xbox?
Just like how PS+ raised prices after reducing the number of games you get each month.
Because the app fucking sucks
>Have to log in every time you launch it
>Slow loading reCaptcha
>Never starts in controller mode
>No search feature
>Connection errors when launching a game
>Game finally launches
>I_can't_hold_all_these_artifacts.jpeg

>Borderline unplayable input lag
>'You must relaunch PS Now because your Online ID has been changed'
>Have to log in again
>Reenter everything because no 'remember me' option
>2FA again because no 'trust this device' option
>Clicking some crosswalks
>Waiting for pictures to load
>Clicking more crosswalks
>More waiting

>Ctrl+Alt+Del
>Ps Now process disappears right when task manager is opened
>Launch it
>Log in again
Just fucking give me bloodborne on PC so I don't have to deal with this shit, it's not like anything else on there is worth playing.
Gamepass can be bundled with Xbox gold, and you can get it for 1$. Also it works on pc
I never got rid of my ps3 bevause im not stupid and fuck paying them to play games I already own and also being STREAMED
The service is a shit heap.
input lag and lack of good games. instead of porting games to PC sony got lazy and thinks that streaming is fun when its not.
they cater to the lootbox addicted crowd which is just mainstream games. Surprisingly they don't buy a lot of games. They don't have a large loyal fan base willing to buy their game only shills who spout bullshit. Quite funny how Nintendo can make a lot more profit with low budget games which are easy enough to copy if one would adhere to the same sense of quality Nintendo has.
Just look at their idea on how to push for their online subscription. They released a new tetris game albeit being very simple it was simply fun and pulled in enough casuals. If MS or Sony were to try that they would 90% of the time make some kind of AA shooter game just like Drawn to death or Bleeding edge.
