Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Games for July 2021?

No.

Sure. I said I was mostly happy since getting the PS5 version of A Plague Tale Innocence for free is good enough to make it a solid enough month for me.

I already have WWE battlegrounds and it's actually a fun game. I play it with my son's and we enjoy its silliness.
No interest in black ops but will give plague tale a try

Decent month for me and most looking forward to the wwe game, didnt look good enough to buy but more than happy to get it here

I'm happy more people will give A Plague Tale a chance. It's a hidden 💎.

Really looking forward to replaying innocence.

Side note: poll says Black Ops 3

I don't have a PS5, so definitely not happy.

Would have played A Plague Tale if it was on PS4. No interest in the other two. Have already downloaded A Plague Tale on my Series S via Gamepass, so will end up playing it there.

A plagues tale I tried on Xbox one via gamepass but the performance wasn't great so gave up on it. I'm happy to try that again on ps5.
Black ops though will depend on if they force me to download warzone too. Modern warfare annoyed the hell out of me. I was enjoying the campaign but could never finish it as everytime there was a warzone update it would delete the campaign and MP maps. Warzone also takes up way too much harddrive space right now.
The wrestling game I've no opinion on yet.
If I was just on PS4 I'd probably be less happy with this months

Sublime line up. Couldn't be any better.

I don't have a PS5, so no. Awful month for PS4 users imo...

Plague Tale is amazing, but I already played and own it so it's impact isn't as big for me. The other two though are pretty rough though. Blops 4 has no campaign and I prefer Modern Warfare for MP. WWE Battlegrounds... I'm just not interested 😅.

No, simply because COD is there. I am sick and tired from seeing that game being given out. If it was Lost Legacy as the rumors mentioned then I would have been happy with it.

Not really. I don’t like stealth games, online repetitive shooters, or crap games.

Horrible😴.worst ps4 month ever.word up son

@AdamNovice a big game that’s only MP that everyone has moved on from. You could almost forget it exists. They should have given the new Modern Warfare instead. This feels like a rip off.

Decent month. People focused on the 6th COD game, but plague tale is a gem.

I do miss the time of getting indie games through ps plus. Maybe 1 or 2 super old AAA games and then 4-5 indie games. Those were the glory days of the subscription.

@playstation1995 shut up son.

Ever since it’s announcement I’d forgotten about Plague Tale, I’m only too happy to have it now

Nah, not very happy. A Plague Tale: Innocence is good but not worth replaying just for some fancy PS5 enhancements in my opinion.

PS4 selection? Garbage.

It’s so rare that I even play the games that are given monthly but if I don’t like them I just keep playing the games I have that I do like. I don’t sign a stupid useless petition or anything ridiculous like that.

One game I’m interested in is on a console I can’t find so in my opinion it’s a ***** month

Plague is great.

2K is garbage.

Blops 4 is two cods old and the weakest one in years before Cold War. Only gets any clout cause its was competing with Apex for BR

Only interested in A Plague Tale but it’s one of those rare cases when a PS+ game goes on top of my gaming queue instead of the backlog. So still a good month.

Pretty strong month to be fair. Looking forward to all three.

Does seem odd, I can't imagine it would've cost a huge amount more to get PS4 plague tale on there too, would've made sense while it's still nigh on impossible to find a rrp ps5.

I’ll take A Plague Tale and won’t even download the others.

I’m going to have quite a collection of games to play by the time I get a PS5 😬

Although A Plague Tale is good, the other two games drag it down to crap month territory.

No. I've already played through APT: Innocence. The other two are so forgettable, I don't even remember their titles.

Only happy with Plague Tale.

I let my psn plus run out last month. My only real concern is losing cloud saves.

Also, everybody picking the 6/10 over the 9/10. It warms my heart.

I'm pretty pleased with plague tail innocence but for ps4 owners it's pretty pants

For me personally it's not a good mo th as Ive already played call of duty and a plague tale. And I'm not into wrestling (worst sport ever)

But in terms of value and the games themselves I'd say its a pretty solid selection especially for those who haven't played theses games yet, also compared to games with gold this is miles ahead

I’m never not happy for a ps plus free game. If it sucks, then I move on. No skin off my back, I didn’t pay for the free game.

As, it seems most people feel… happy with Innocence: A Plagues Tale, even though I’ve already got the PS4 version in my backlog. I’ve heard that it is well worth two playthroughs (spread apart of course), so I will probably play both versions at some point.

Never been a CoD fan though… and haven’t been into WWE since it was called WWF.

Hahahaha this has to be a joke right? 😂😂😂

@Korgon BO4 has a good zombies and Alcatraz is pretty good for a laugh.

@Abeedo simple answer 👍👍👍😃

Plague Tale on PS5 makes it a good month.

wouldn't mind if i had a ps5. can't see anyone who isn't into CoD not already owning that game, and... WWE? didn't that game also get, like, AWFUL reviews for being totally broken or am i confusing this with something else?

either way. bleh. oh well.

Happy to get plague, other two are space fillers. Little needs to be said about COD, especially since it doesn't even have campaign and the WWE mock is just silly. Played it before and deleted 30 mins later.

For those of you who haven't played A Plague's Tale, you won't be disappointed.

Very happy.
Bye

As long as there are games I haven't played (and haven't already been on PS Now) I'm happy. Even WWE should be fun for a day of "omg this is so bad".

@colonelkilgore 😂 I just think that’s funny that you called it “Innocence: A Plague’s Tale”. Not sure if that was on purpose to trivialize the name or if you legitimately got confused but either way it underscores one of the things that probably hampered the game’s success — the title is kind of awkward and silly. Games with “Tale” in the title sound like some kind of bedtime story or something. This game would have sold better if it was just called “Plague”, or “Virulence of the Innocent”, or something like that. They should leave these hyphenated titles to the Japanese developers.

On subject, I’m excited to have A Plague’s Tale, as I’m currently enjoying it on PS4 and want the game to get some extra exposure. It’s quite good. The other two are unlikely to ever see the light of my HDD. But I’m happy for COD fans.

@Th3solution an ‘innocent’ mistake 😉 I assure you

CoD:BO4 is a game that anyone who was interested in it already owns. Then there's a cringeworthy wrestling game. The only game here I might play is A Plague's Tale, which I would have skipped for anything over the price of £free, and so it's hardly a stellar month.

already have plague tale, don't care for the rest

Plague Tale is the only one I care for honestly from this month's selection.

Looking forward to a plague tale and a bit of solo black ops. WWE games are the kind of thing to have a bestie over and play drunk for laughs. All good.

Plague Tale and WWE make it a very good month for me.

Wow still no knack two, let down another month.

A plague tale sounds good and I never played Black ops 4 so hopefully there's still a good player base, should be with it on ps plus bow anyway, and WWE I'm probably not even gonna add to my library

I don't like the PS plus lineup for July 2021

Not really happy. I'm a little tired of getting old games that are updated for ps5 and then call it a game. It seems like most releases have been that way. Xbox game pass is much better in this area.

Don't have a ps5 yet, but look forward to getting one and finally playing A Plague Tale: Innocence.

WWE seems pretty fun for a couple of hours

I will probably actually try Plague Tale after hearing so many lauding it.
I usually have zero interest or already own the games PS Plus puts up. Like zero interest to the point that I don’t even bother to redeem it.

I'll take wwe battle grounds..yeah its not the best game ever but its really good fun..my mates young lad has it and its a laugh a minute game playing against him so yeah...i'll have this thanks..

A fairly even split between those who want to plague, and those who don't much care for it

Another poor month for me
Not interested in stealth em up Plague tale, I'll try it because I'm desperate to play something on my PS5 but I know I'll be bored after an hour or so.
Zero interest in WWE because I'm not 6
And I already play BLOPS
Disappointed. Again.

As a PS4 owner, this sucks.

BLOPS4 was free on Game Pass for months before this, pretty sure, and Plague Tale has been on there a couple of months. If you own both Sony and Microsoft machines you must feel pretty duped cos you're not really getting anything you didn't already have.

Let's be honest. It's gonna be hard for Sony to ever top giving away Horizon: Zero Dawn for free. That game is immense, beautiful, not perfect but so fun, really a great gift and you didn't even need PS Minus for that, just a regular PS account. I'm looking forward to dipping back into that when I get a PS5 in a year or two.

The fact they're even offering a CoD game suggests they're kinda lamely trying to respond to GP. Which is interesting.

@AhmadSumadi So when you're disappointed by games, you just don't say anything and keep being disappointed month after month? How is that admirable lol? It's buying a product over and over again that you don't like, except you don't say anything and you keep giving them money anyway, so nothing changes.

Why are you so mad that other people are actually trying to voice their displeasure? Sure, it probably won't amount to anything, but it is 100,000 x better than what you do, which is nothing.

@Mgene15 Yep, you didn't pay for a "free" game, as PS Plus is a "free" service that you don't pay anything for!

The games are part of what you get for the subscription cost. It's part of the service, they're not "free" games, Sony aren't giving them out as a favour.

Indifferent this time. A Plague Tale is awesome and could have ironically been a rarest port I might be caught playing over Switch's (regardless of control scheme pitfalls, 360p/544p remains tangibly more streamable than 720p where I live)... but it's on a console I don't have that's only "portable" on buttonless devices whose creators likely deem even 720p atavistic. Better luck next gen with this game. Elsewhere, I'm lukewarm towards wrestling games (despite fooling around with WWF WrestleMania Challenge quite a bit as a kid, not that I ever figured out how to play efficiently) and to most CoDs that don't at least have "warfare" in the title - but I got one of the latter in the past (could've got two, but the excessively cautious mistake of making a Russian PSN account backfired yet again), so hey.

@guntam sane people either pay when they're interested or don't when they're not. I just expressed my personal "meh" for this month's lineup, but that didn't stop me from extending the sub for another year (a mailed discount code was welcome, too), and I barely even use multiplayer. For me, PS+ is about cloud saves and maintaining access to a massive library of offerings I enjoy AND have the ability to play, including Vita classics like Grand Kingdom and Zero Time Dilemma. When it comes to PS4, the control scheme gambles of the past pretty much discouraged me from buying games for it at all, so PS+ is the bulk of my library over there, including [semi]comfortable experiences like Concrete Genie, Greedfall, Just Cause 4, Uncharted and TLoU... all of which are still in my backlog. I have enough reason to keep subscribing; if I didn't, the rational thing would be to quit, not raise cain about it online. A business offer that doesn't or no longer meet a consumer's demand is nothing extraordinary and nothing apocalyptic.

Yes, purely for A Plague Tale. I started this on PS4 a while ago, so happy to return to it on PS5, once I finally have it set up again. No PS gaming for over three months - sad face.

Dont own a ps5 unfortunately to take advantage of the best of the 3 and wont be renewing my plus for the other 2 games.
Off topic but does anyone know whan PGA 2K21 is like. Watched a few reviews but they are all around launch pre patches etc.

Been looking at playing Plague Tale for a while, so this was a welcome addition. The rest I'll probably add to my library and never play though. If I get one game I'll enjoy per month then I won't complain too much.

An average month for me.
I own a Series X with Game Pass so I now have a choice of which platform to play Plague Tale Innocence on. LOL
The other 2 games are bargain bin stuff, so I feel sorry for PS4 owners this month.

@nhSnork "sane" (smart is really the more appropriate term) people buy a 12-month sub during a sale if they're interested because it's significantly more expensive to pay monthly, nearly 3x as much over the period of a whole year, and smart people don't waste money needlessly. A 12-month sub though, whilst significantly better value for money, makes it much harder to only "pay when they're interested."

As for the rest of your point, most people want PS+ to be a good service, in terms of value and content. They want to subscribe to it. They might have subscribed to it during a period in which it was a good service and the quality has since dropped. The failure is on Sony's part for making poor choices that alienate these people who are happy to give their business in return for a solid service. If you're not invested in the service, yes, the "rational" thing to do is to leave because in that case, the service didn't offer you anything that was worth keeping. For people who are invested and want the service to be better or even as good as it was previously, the "rational" thing to do is to want change.

And how other people choose to go about courting that change is really none of anyone else's business, especially people who have a flaccid philosophy on the matter.

In the internet, everything is everyone's business anyway, and a lot of publicly written opinions fall under the demand of taking the same responsibilities as all other incarnations of publicistic writing. If an opinion reeks of fanship venom and its "desire of change" (often on top of change itself regarding a conspicuously hedonistic first world problem) refuses the other party any room to say no at the legitimate cost of possibly losing the requester's wallet, this opinion will be called out for all the consumerist narcissism it radiates. "Flaccid" or not, there's no overruling the civility of an age-old take-it-or-leave-it approach in the market relationships; the reactive rest is just your tough luck of running into a sociopathic philologist with contempt for all fans and their brands of "wanting change".

Me, I don't want this sub "to be better" - I just want it if, when and as long as it gives me something I want for the price I'm motivated and enabled to pay. End of story. And it's not about jumping back in "when you're interested" - like I said above, I don't pay for what I might get in the future months, I pay for what I already have in the sub's frame. Namely, the save cloud and the amassed subscription library full of things that already appeal to me but await their hour in the backlog. Unless both of these factors undergo significant changes (like, say, everything I have here ending up on Switch for me to double-dip on, but that's unlikely) or the subscription price skyrockets to the point of being beyond my reach or getting overshadowed by other spending priorities at a given time, this state of things will thoroughly explain while I continue "flaccidly" spending money on this stuff. And remain a randomly vocal stain on the fandom's dramatic narrative of how unacceptable it is. ¯(ツ)/¯

Never gonna complain about this. What I pay versus what I get in return, is a pretty good deal.

I'm just happy that both PS4 games have 4-player local/couch play, already own WWE Battlegrounds but will definitely try CoD BO4 with the boys to see the zombies mode and if it's better or worse than BO3!

Now there is NO EXCUSE, anyone who has not played the underrated gem that is A Plague's Tale NEEDS to play it. This is NOT a request, this is an order! A Plague's Tale was hands down the best game of 2019 that deserves way more love and attention than it currently gets.

@AdamNovice TLOU is bad.

Gamers happy?

Never.

😉

Will add A Plague Tale to my library and play at at later date.

@guntam online petitions are worthless and are a huge waste of time. Especially as it pertains to folks complaining about video games. Wanna know why I don’t complain about PS+ games month after month? Because I know that even if I don’t like the games there will be people out there who do. With the thousands of video games released I know that every one of them won’t appeal to me.

When PS+ releases games I don’t like I just don’t download them and continue playing Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Elder Scrolls Online, The Avengers, Ratchet & Clank, Everybody’s Golf, etc. Y’know the dozens of other games I have that I do like. See, I don’t play COD nor do I like WWE but my son loves COD and he and his friends play WWE. Smoke out there will like what I don’t so I just chalk it up as “not for me” and move on. I don’t complain that everything isn’t to my liking.

I am NEVER happy about ANYTHING Next question...

@gamiller1978 Plague Tale is on PS4

Tbh I'm far happier with this month than June, and actually pretty pleased with BLOPS4, never bought it coz of the whole replacing the campaign with battle royal mode (how was that ever considered a decent trade off?), but I'll happily add it to my library just for the Zombies mode

I would have been excited for this, but I'm just really mad that A Plague Tale is only for PS5. All the other games look awful, and there's no legitimate reason other than greed to only put Innocence on the PS5 service, especially since most of us can't even get our hands on the damn things they sell out so fast.

@ReddJelly Yes I know, the game which we are receiving via PS Plus is the PS5 version, that's what I meant.

@nhSnork Admittedly I've skimmed this because, as far as I'm concerned, such a flaccid stance doesn't require 2 paragraphs of flowery words to explain, perhaps keep the masturbatory language to a minimum? If you don't want the subscription to be better, for whatever strange reason as a consumer, I'm not sure what reason you have to be participating in the discussion. You'll happily take it in any form, so what is your grievance exactly?

@AhmadSumadi Any action is still better than doing nothing, including online petitions. And mate, you're literally complaining about people complaining, you do in fact complain. Except instead of complaining to Sony, you moan on forums because other people are trying to improve the service for everyone, lmao. If there's anything more worthless and more pointless than an online petition, it's what you do.

Started chapter 3 on A Plagues Tale, has a very Brothers a two tale vibe (which is excellent) . Performance on ps5 is superb,

WWE even tho I have psnow and it's on their I have never tried it, so will be a chance to try the game.

Black ops. No interest.

Ps July month would be 7/10 but I'll give it an 8/10 just for A Plagues Tale.

@guntam I believe I've elaborated on my points enough above; if you came out of it with an idea that I will "happily take PS+ in any form", then I'm not sure if there's anything I can add to counter your skimming techniques.

And I know that fanspeak excels in Freudian slang, but "masturbatory language" sounds like a whole new gem on the block. 😆

A plagues tale was the one I really wanted to play, but seeing as I can't get hold of a ps5 and being fobbed off with the crappy wwe and yet another call of duty game I feel a bit let down.

I went with "Meh, they're okay". The only game I'll play is WWE Battlegrounds. I have a soft spot for mediocre wrestling games.

Anybody else actually enjoying the wwe game?? Just played for about 3 hours and found it pretty additive, its definitely a little repetitive but I think its not too bad and can see it being good for a few rounds between other games...

I clicked "not very happy" as, well... I wasn't, but thought I might play through Black Ops 4's campaign... Of course after some enlightenment, I want to change my answer to "No.". Not worth the time to load up the store haha Oh, well. It's not a problem, will help me catch up on the other plus games I haven't got round to.

No. Complete garbage. I gave A Plague Tale a chance, but I don't like fantasy - I dislike medieval fantasy even more - and deleted it after ten minutes.

Another terrible month. I tried out the WWE game and it was fun for all of a half hour before it got so hard it was unplayable. Also only 13 trophies and no platinum. Deleted.
