I love these PS+ threads. It lets me know who's opinions to completely ignore on games.
The first sentence of your statement is precisely part of why PS+ is going to have to be more mediocre. People are cheaping out.For me PS Plus gets me the most excited when I get games that i was going to pay for but they end up being free. Games that I was going to get but was sitting on the fence on. Most of the indie games kind of have zero appeal when you first hear about them until you actually play them, so when people see these games up for PS Plus and everyone is suddenly forced to have these games, thats why there's a backlash. Gamers also have pretty narrow tastes too, everyone has a different collection of games, so when you give such a large number of people the same game, A LOT of people who don't like the games will feel like its a month wasted. PS Plus used to be this big marketing machine on here, but a lot of that good will is going to go to waste if they don't give people what they want. It certainly looks like a cost cutting move to me putting up these indie games. I'm assuming its starting to eat into their software sales as people will wait on for it to hit PS+ IGC.
I am having a blast with it, then again I never played it when it was broken.
Not a fan of Road Not Taken so far. I don't know if I'm going to continue it at this point.
Edit: WOW Dragons Crown is free on PS3 as well
Say what?
Only the Vita version was available when they gave DC here in Europe...
Played through the first couple of puzzles in Road Not Taken..It has charm but the gameplay really isn't doing anything for me, I'll give it another go tomorrow but will probably uninstall and never play it again.

ps3 version doesnt show as free for me :/
I just "bought" the PS3 version and it is free indeed. Not crossbuy with the Vita one either, each a separate $0 purchase.
still shows as $69 for me
And yes, I have the vita version via ps+.
Aus here.
Proteus is officially the new rock bottom for PS+. I gave it an honest try. I chased a few frogs. I walked up a mountain and into a cloud, which then starting raining. I I held the circle button and reset my game on accident.
Metrico wasn't much better. Got about 5 minutes in. Certainly a cool art style, similar to Mad Men. But the gameplay is rough. Got stuck on this part that just raises a tower up 4 times, blocking your path. I'm sure it's something simple, but I didn't see it.
Every time I'm subjected to games like these, I think back to this article and laugh.

Only applicable for your US PSN account.
PS+ stuff is up for download in the UK!
Edit: I didn't realise Fez is crossbuy, so is available for Vita and PS3 too. Aces.
I've been a PS+ subscriber for less than a week and already own 6 more games than I did previously, 3 of which I really wanted (Muramasa, Fez and Dragon's Crown). Not bad, not bad at all.
You'll get used to it and start complaining with the rest of us in a few months

Really enjoying Fez so far. The part whenis one of those details that makes a game specialyou scan the QR code to know a secret sequence
Had to skip over those on the PC version, do you still need a phone or whatever on Vita too?
A phone?
Proteus is a great game for a small child to play.
Exactly why I laugh at people think indie games are the saviors of modern gaming. Proteus. I argued with so many people that this just isn't a good anything. It's not fun. It's hardly relaxing. It's junk.
I've really tried to like Road Not Taken but I'm just not enjoying it. I wanted to like it for it's presentation and art style which is fantastic but the gameplay itself isn't doing it for me. Just begins to get rather frustrating than fun after the first couple of levels. Shame.
Exactly how i feel. I played dozen of hours of SpryFox's TripleTown on Android and loved it. Was so excited for road not taken, but it brings no pleasure for me.

Checked my download list and it was there for Ps3 as well. Didn't know this game was cross buy.Say what?

Also, I don't think too much good will is going to be lost. For people with only a PS3 or PSV, maybe. But for those of us with PS4s, the games really are bonuses to our subscriptions.

I haven't turned on my PS4 in a month and a half.
It's about to be two and a half.
I'm concerned about people who hold off on games they're interested because it might end up on PS+. You might not be such a person, but they do exist, and they are hurting both PS+ and the PS ecosystem. If you want a game, you need to just pull the trigger.I disagree with that. I would have never ever bought Dragon's crown. Ps+ os here for people like me.
Whatever the case may be, people that need their games day one are going to still get their games day one regardless PS Plus is here or not.
For example, I know I am getting da:inquisition, destiny, and bloodborne etc day 1. Ps plus will not change that.
Likewise, I would NEVER buy tlou. But I would try it if it were on ps plus.
