What a terrible game it must be without PSN+ (Destiny)

So, you think developers on PSN and XBL are allowed to provide multiplayer without subscription if they so desire?

Because I'm betting that's false.

Warframe: no PS+ required, full experience available.
Same for DC Universe online, and a few other games on PSN...
Also, subscription-based MMOs.


That only leaves making it required for everyone, and while that might have led to a more even experience for everyone, I am sure it would have reduced sales significantly. The experience without matchmaking makes a good case for the value of those subscriptions; it's a sales pitch you can't make on a box cover.

PS+ is free for all this weekend, no doubt to showcase the online Destiny experience... Would definitely push people over the fence...
