PlayStation Plus has three main plans: Essential, Extra, and Premium. Essential gives you online multiplayer, monthly free games, and discounts. Extra adds a huge game catalog you can download, and Premium includes all that plus game streaming and classics from older consoles.

Essential is the basic tier with multiplayer, monthly games, and discounts. Extra adds a huge game library, and Premium throws in cloud streaming and classic games.

For me, the Extra tier is the sweet spot. You get access to a lot of games without shelling out for the full Premium subscription. Premium is great if you love retro games and streaming.

Everyone's overthinking this. Just get the Essential plan if you just wanna play online and grab the free games each month. Simple!
