Is it 2013 again?

This is hardly a little known fact.

Not on PS4 no

Although I'm fairly sure PS+ is only required for multiplayer, unlike Xbone last I checked

MS changed it so you don't need XBL Gold to use Netflix and stuff, like how you don't need PS+ for anything besides multiplayer.

They're near identical services now.

I wasn't expecting to ever get a PS4 but my grandparents bought me one

I'm pretty sure it's up to the devs/publishers to require PS+ on their games.

That being said, it should be free. That goes for every platform.

it's not like you had to actively search for the information. it was kind of a big deal after the ps4 reveal

You don't have to be well versed in the world of gaming to know that this is old news.

The only games worth playing online are Black Ops III and FFXIV, and the latter requires a separate subscription and not PS+ required.

This is the first I've heard of it. I've seen no discussion of it on any other forum before.

there wasn't a big sony conference in 2013 or anything, with multiple articles popping up afterwards addressing the new PS+ requirement.

I assume this is meant to be read in a sarcastic tone. Gaming doesn't often pop up in mainstream media and nobody seemed to want to talk about it much since then online. Just last year I remember seeing a thread where 50+ people were also under the assumption that PSN was free to play online.
