I have brought this up in the past only to get immediately shut down.
It makes no sense to me to have to require PS+ Especially when I'm running my own server
I paid for the PlayStation 5
I paid for a full version of the game
I paid for my Internet connection
I pay for the server from Nitrado
What am I paying Sony for with PS+?
Seems like the only thing I'm paying for with PS+ is the opportunity to be unable to play my game when the PlayStation network goes down
