Kinda weird to have too simulation games on the same month, but I can't complain. The last year has been pretty great for PS+ in my eyes.

This is a poor month for sure, but the last several months have been pretty solid. Eg Uncharted 4, Dirt Rally 2.0, Shadow of the Colossus, Bioshock Collection, Uncharted Collection, Titanfall 2, Sonic Mania, What Remains of Edith Finch, Overcooked, The Witness, Soma, OnRush etc. And that's not including the discounts. I think you easily get your moneys worth.
Yeah, I've never regretted PS+ and I've been subscribed since PS3. It's a good value, especially when you catch 12-month deals for around $35-40

I payed for both PS Now and PS+, I should have the right to complain and receive different games. Heck I can't even add the games to my PS+ Library due to having them on PS Now. How is this fair to paying customers?
I sincerely doubt the terms & conditions you agreed to when you paid your subscription included "games may be eligible to change if not to the users' liking" but sure
That said not being able to add it to your catalog because you have them on PS Now is a legit problem

Stop this terms and conditions bs... it sucks that they offer PS+ games that are on PSNow, people can complain. Otherwise lets gather a bunch of lawyers and let them read all T&C and decide what we can complain about

Most German month ever :D

The funniest part of this meme is that the Farming Simulator devs (Giants) are based out of Switzerland.

Cities: Skylines (Colossal Order) headquartered in Finland.

Both franchises are popular not only in Germany, but all around the world.

Y'all need to update your scripts.

Why should games be subjected to change just because they're featured on a totally different service? What about PS+ users that aren't PSNow subscribers?

Change? We are just complaining that it isnt a good month for us, hopefully at someone at Sony will notice and try to avoid this situation.

Makes sense when you consider what's going on globally this month, as well as Animal Crossing's success.

Simulation/slow paced games are by far the best games for isolation, both in terms of passing time and in terms of stress.

I really wanna know what goes on in the minds of PlayStation HQ when they knowingly overlap PS Plus games with PS Now games knowing that users won't be able to add them to their library. Like we pay more and get less that's not fair. It has happend more times than I can count.

Cities Skylines is fantastic on PC. I don't think this would be the type of game I'd play on console. I'll poke in just to see how they managed the controls.

Farming Simulator sounds hilarious. I wonder if that plays well on the pad.

I stopped my PS+ account from auto-renewing. I'm disappointed this month, and I've been disappointed with most months being one major game (or not even major, this month) and one joke game (Farming Sim, this month).

It's up to consumers to use their voice to let companies know what they want, like that's a really important thing. Imagine if consumers never spoke up about anything.
Spoking up against the selection of—arguably—free games that are part of a subscription before having tried them? There are times where that kind of action makes them but certainly not in this case

Why not? It only takes a moment of your time to send a tweet or an email. And it doesn't logically follow that just because something is free, that makes it preferable.

I'm actually looking forward to Cities Skylines, has been on my radar for some time now.
The downside is quite the same as the SIms a few months ago: There is so much DLC and expansions, you even have to buy DLC for snow etc, just like the Sims.
Is the base game a robust experience by itself? And how essential is the DLC content, is it good? What are recommended packs?

"Hello, just to say that I dislike this month's selection even thought I haven't actually tried any of the games in question to form a proper opinion. Thank you" what a brilliant contribution to the service indeed

I mean, okay. Let's say you don't like soccer and they offer two soccer games. Because you haven't played them you can't have the opinion you don't like soccer games? lol I'm sorry but I can't imagine the mindset of being against consumers voicing an opinion, you're literally arguing against most people's best interests.

I can understand the disappointment in some but I'm actually looking forward to these. Sure Darksouls and Dying Light would've been cool but its also nice to get to try something different.

Probably one of the worst months since I've been subscribed to +. And I say that as a German.

These two are worth several times more than those too so the value here is undebatable. Not liking the games themselves is another thing but that happens to somebody every month and shouldn't be an issue. Hell it happened to me for the past year or so and this is the first month that's been worth it in ages for me lol, I didn't spend that time screaming though because the games that didn't interest me were still good games that would interest a lot of people

Those are two fantastic games though. Just doesn't really align with the general taste of ResetEra. =P
