Hi
I can no longer play my games on PS4 without updating them.
is that normal now because i can still remember because otherwise when an update was done you could click soielen without updating
This is perfectly normal, at least for online games.
But since every game, even if it doesn't have an online mode or anything else, still needs an internet connection and so you always have to have the latest version to play the games.
The game will have some online function that will force this update to take place.
If you could play the game offline, the game would have to be playable even if the console has no internet access. And without Internet access, the system would not even notice that an UpDate is available.
The game has an offline mode and otherwise I didn't have to update this game
So is it a pure offline game? - Then I would disconnect the console from the internet and then try to start the game.
Otherwise, it should really be related to a system update, because until now I have mostly skipped these update dates… And could do it at a later date.
