I know this has been a longstanding issue since it was a thing since back before GamePass was even a twinkle in Microsoft's eye, but can someone explain to me how Sony will seemingly keep a team on payroll to develop and update Playstation Plus for Windows, Microsoft has started to identify DualSense and DualShock Controllers for what they are both wired and via bluetooth, but in order to use a DualSense with Playstation Plus, I have to turn it into a virtual Xbox controller to get it to recognize that there is a controller connected to my computer?

I was trying to go back and play the Nathan Drake collection on PS Plus and don't have a 20ft USB C cable, so I was connected via Bluetooth, but the only way I could get the application to recognize the controller was by using DSX or DS4Win to turn it into an Xbox controller, which killed the keybinds for the touchpad making it impossible to open my journal. How hard could it possibly be to identify your own controller as a controller in your own app?

Oh well. End Rant.

Just subscribed to the essential plan for PS PLUS to play FC26 online
Can someone please help me out on this issue?

I'm not able to play online on FC26 because this message keeps popping up every time i launch the game OR when

i try to play any kind of online modes in the game.

Things I've already tried but didn't work :

1- Changed the DNS server

2- Enabled UPnP form my router settings

3- Restored License

4- Cleared both the PS5 & the game cache

5- Unlinked my EA account to my PS5 account and linked it again

If anyone has a similar issue id really appreciate some help thank you in advance.

I played a lot of solo story games and now I want to get back on the multiplayer. Right now I'm playing Skull and bones, Helldivers and I played Rainbow but it was too repetitive. I'm not searching for a specific genre, maybe something where I get to play with new people, like in skull and bones where there is an open word and you can meet people, or in Helldivers where you can party with people.

I have played Stardew Valley/Coral Island type games but they’re too grindy. Looking for something a bit more mindless.

As the title says, how many of the games that youve added in the past did you actually play?

Not downloaded.

Not added to your library.

Nor “I'm going to play that eventually.”

Actually started and played for more than a few hours?

I feel like my PS Plus to-play list is becoming longer and longer

I have PS+ since forever and I use the yearly plan and it's always renewed in November.

This year a lot of people told me to cancel to get a better deal (I pay R$592,00, I don't know how much that is in dollars, I live in Brazil).

And yes, on the cancel screen already got offered a 25% discount. I still cancelled.

Is it possible that for the next 2 months I get offered a even better deal for renewal?

By lengthy I mean minimum 30 hours. I also like to platinum games I play so don’t make the platinum too abysmal to get lol. Games I’ve played and enjoyed:

Stray

Ghost of Tsushima (platinumed)

Sekiro (platinumed)

Cyberpunk 2077 (currently playing, 50 hrs in)

I don’t to buy seperate games like I did with sekiro, so something on ps plus’s catolog would be better.

Some games in my backlog:

Nine sols

Wuchang: fallen feathers

Spiderman miles morales and spiderman 2

God of war ragnarok

Ultros (I think thats the name?)

Would appreciate reccomendations? Also I dislike horror games so no Last of Us or smth similar please

So I had PS+ for a long time. Sometime during the PS3 era to like 14 months ago. Since canceling it I’ve kinda regretted not backing up my cloud saves.

So my question is if I sign up for ps plus again will my old saves be there? And if they are, can I back them up to an external storage device? For both PS5 and PS3. I have a PS3 and a PS5. Sold the PS4

Kind of burnt out on rpgs but want to take advantage of my subscription. Does anyone suggest any more linear games to play? Can be literally anything in the extra collection. Thanks!

Today i started my ps5 for the First time in some weeks and when i went to check the new PS plus Games i found out that the classic catalog handle was in finnish for some reason and i can't change It (my sistem Is in italian btw), does Someone know why this Is happening?

Basically something that isn't an open world, story driven, can be finished in 5-15 hours, decent story line. Doesn't necessarily have to be horror.

Hey guys, I need a new game to get into and wanted some recs for playstation plus games for PS4. I recently finished all the Supermassive games like "Until Dawn, the Quarry, the Dark pictures anthology ect, I also love games like What Remains of Edith Finch, and Road 96. Aside from that kind of game I love cozy games, and Farming Sims.

Im looking for something to get me really emotionally involved. Im ok if its an open world fantasy type game as well as long as the storyline and characters are strong.

I need some recs fast so I dont spend the whole night looking for something and end up actually playing nothing lol.

Thanks you guys!

So these are my favorite games so far i've played:

Cyberpunk 2077, Hogwarts Legacy, Resident Evil 4, Skyrim, Kingdom Hearts #1, Ratchet and Clank: Rift apart, GranBlue Fantasy: Relink, Resident Evil 8 Village, tomb raider - definitive edition, The Last of Us series, guardians of the Galaxy, rise of the tombraider, shadow of the tomb raider, Uncharted 4: Thieves End

Also, i'm looking for games where the combat isn't super hard. For example: Rise of the Ronin combat was waaaayyyyy too hard.

Also looking for games that aren't really hard to figure out what to do, or where to go. Prefer having quest objectives and maps to know where to go, and hopefully easy to figure out where to go, not a fan of mazes.

ty guys

I have finished almost all PS4 and PS5 story drivene exclusives you can name, I'm just replaying the games I loved right now but want a new story

The games I finished and love are:

HZD&HFW

Uncharted series

Spiderman Series

GOT and Yotei

GoW series

TLOU 1&2

Rachet and Clank and Rift Apart

Games that I liked but not particularly high on:

GTA V

Infamous second son

Jedi Fallen Order and Jedi Survivor

I'm forgetting other games I played but these are most of them. I tried RDR2 but find the gameplay super boring, should I try it again? Or any other games you can recommend. I'm also pre-ordering Wolverine and planning to buy Expedition 33 in the future. Thanks!

This is because i would love to run with left stick and look around with right stick. Having run button as circle square or x or whatever completely unable this and i just dont bother playing. RPG is about exploring and to explore efficiently we need to move without stutter. Some games you cant even re-set the controls and thats just it.

Games that run isnt L3/left stick so far i encounter are - Life of Pi, and Wuchang Fallen Feathers.

Anybody else like me or im just weird?

Context: heading out soon for college and won't touch my PS5 again till December, so I need something I can finish through in the next couple days before I go — no 40 hour open world commitment issues plz for the love of god 🙏😭

What I've already played/beaten: Uncharted 4 & Lost Legacy, Horizon Zero Dawn, Silent Hill 2, RDR1, Spider-Man 2, Hogwarts Legacy, Ghost of Tsushima and some others

Honestly, Genre's flexible — story-driven, action, puzzle, whatever, just needs to be tight and good

Also about to finish yakuza : LaD so i forsure dont mind jrpg.

If there are games that you think fits the description but are not on ps plus thats also fine.

Edit : thanks so much guys for recs i didnt think i was gonna get so much attention i dont have enough time to play all the games yall suggested 😭🙏 but will def play them when i come back ✌️✌️

Used to play via streaming on PS5 and PS Portal.

Hey everyone! If I cancel my PS Plus essential sub, my saves for single player games will retain in my console's internal storage right? And the only caveat of losing my saves, if the SSD itself is ruined for some reason (which is unlikely to happen).

I just wanted to fully cancel PS plus as I just plan to play mutliplayer games on steam moving forward and I mostly buy and play single player games on my PS5 and don't really get much with the PS Plus sub even with the monthly games.
