Popular Post KCF392 Posted October 30, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 30, 2020 Yeah the store is horrendous on PC now. No names of games, no organization or capability to filter/sort (i.e. price, A-Z, featured, popular, new), no more trailers/images on game pages, some pages refuse to load, etc. Oddly enough, it seems like most of the changes discourage people from finding and exploring "new" games - if you don't know exactly what game(s) you are searching for you probably won't come across it naturally. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ_Radio Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Thanks to @SnowxSakura and @MaxieM0us3, I can use the older PS Store from the links provided. Sony can't design anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiII-Valentine-- Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I can't sort the store the way I want it so I guess I won't be spending as much money as I used too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil_Joker88 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) I don't like the new design for the same reasons you mentioned @ImMagnetz and @kcf392... when i read that they gonna change design of web and mobile shop i hoped for something better. I dislike the mobile shop due to less options to filter or sort things (you can't say "game" or "bundle" or "avatar" for example) but now they did this also on the web shop too? In the sales i was frustrated that you cannot sort from lowest to highest or vice versa depended on current prices but they instead used standard prices. Now they simply take away that option at all in the web shop. Why Sony why?? Edited October 30, 2020 by Evil_Joker88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOiler19 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 It comes to something when a website like psprices.com is actually better at searching for games, DLC, bundles and offers etc than the official Sony PS store. Surely they must have beta tested this with anyone over the age of 14? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImMagnetz Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 There's also the fact that, unless I'm mistaken, if a game is on sale but you already own it, you can't see what the price is. It just comes up as "Purchased". What if I see a game that I know my friend's had his eye on and want to let him know what price it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil_Joker88 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) I was looking through the shop on mobile app and web shop for the new ps+ titles, they aren't visible yet, but i discovered something else that surprised me. I found Vampyr and Nfs Paypack with only the option to download them to my ps4. Nothing happened but that's because my ps4 is off. But on both screens they didn't show either game purchased while logged in nor purchase now while not logged in. I think Sony took away the possibility to purchase new ps+ on mobile and web shop so we can't get them but on the console itself. This would go along with the notes given for Bugsnax and the Ps+ Collection for ps5 being available only on PS5 consoles...

Where they removed the ability to search by genre. Seems like everything's getting turned into mobile sites, even outside of mobile now. I miss when website design was simple and straightforward. Most of the shit I see nowadays is fucking despicable. Forbes has absolutely horrendous web design, other mainstream websites are just cluttered with massive pictures, wasted space, padded garbage in the form of drop down menus, and flashy logos. The early to mid 2000s was when websites for the most part were well designed without being too cluttered. The past few years have been a joke. Everyone just copies off each other and uses Wix and other tools to make a generic blog webpage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldjit Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 I don't understand why they would remove the sorting option. I like to choose cheapest on sales or newest for new releases, etc. The wishlist too! I use that to keep try of everything! I don't want to remember or seek out the 20 games that I like on sale, I liked to see them in one place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Evil_Joker88 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 thx @Lance_87 @HusKy i checked again and now i found the ps+ games on mobile app but they're more hidden than before. On shop main page is a link for ps+ which took me to a different sony page not inside the store. But now as i clicked on Subscriptions page they show all ps+ content. Funnily they still show Vamypr and Payback as ps+ titles but when i clicked show all offers the games changed to Hollow Knight and Shadow of War. But now i see another detail which i don't like. On the old design i just had to click on the avatar to see personal information including how much money is in my wallet. That info is now one click further away in payment options. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yes, the old Store is still there but some small things have changed, i.e. you can't directly access the old Download List anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUDGER666 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 A nice new feature is we can now add PS Now games to our library. Added and downloaded Rage 2 and F1 2020 this morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noland208 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 I JUST got the update for the mobile app. I honestly really like it. I like that you can buy games and message thru the app. I also like that they made it to look like the PS5 UI if it was mobile. Good job Sony!

Zid960 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 (edited) Ugg this new store just sucks. There is no way to sort. Its easyer to just google it [game name] ps whatever then go thougth the store. Also why pure white for background? It blinding and hard to look at. Black was so much easyer to see Edited November 3, 2020 by Zid960 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jelly Soup Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 I'm more irritated by the lack of information on how to add certain games. Ok, I don't have a PS5, but it says I can add Bugsnax to my library anyway so I have it for when I do, per usual. Ok...where? The "click here" button doesn't take me to a store page.

realm722 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 There's something about big corporations being incapable of making good, functional, websites for their product. NBA has the same problem where it's largely unusable if you just want a simple place to yanno... get what you want. I HIGHLY recommend using the website - PS Prices, if you want an easy convenient way to browse games. Someone on here showed it to me ages ago and I haven't looked back. Easily allows you to filter by price, is always up to date on the latest sales, there's a wishlist, you can pay to even have it notify you if it goes below a certain price - AND you can filter or "hide" games you'll never have any interest in. It made having to use the PS Store obsolete for me other than when I KNOW what I already want to buy. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
