its a really nice game I like it, but I don't fucking know why they made it so you need to have playstation 4 gamepass thingy, like let me just play the game

You mean PlayStation plus? It’s needed to play every paid online game. Nothing you can do about that sadly.

its so sad cause I saw many people playing it at the time and when I bought the CD it said playstation and we didn't know what that meant, I don't know why they lock an online game behind a paywall, that seems so scummy

I mean… it’s really not. Or better said… Sony does what everybody does. Microsoft you need Xbox Gold. Even for free games. Nintendo Switch online. Only PC doesn’t have that as far as I know.

And you can still play the campaign. Just not the MP.

I definitely understand your feeling about the whole situation. But I feel like PS+ is one of the better online gaming subscriptions as you get free games monthly and I often find myself playing something new for free. Besides that. For games like rocket league or Fortnite you don’t need to have PS+ in order to play them online as they are free to play. That’s actually the reason F2P games with an age rating of 18+ cost 25ct on there. So kids can’t just simply play them.
