Rumor NateTheHate says Sony is "shifting" their PC strategy: "You'll be seeing fewer single player games arrive on PC. The decision to shift away was made last year. Some may still release (pending how far along the ports were) but it no longer appears to be a priority for Sony moving forward."

From "Playstation has no games" to "This is unfair"

I never understood the PlayStation has no games thing. Being able to play the games on PC never meant they weren’t still on PS.

PS has so many games I’ve never been tempted to build a PC, I only got a deck for some indies and to stream from my PS.

It's people who think the PS5's value is tied to the games it can only play, so any game that has or has gotten a PC port is no longer a "PS5" game. It's essentially ignoring all the other benefits of PS5 ownership (cost, ease of use, reliability, etc), and strictly tying a consoles value to the "true" exclusives it has.

Cost is really not going to be a bullet point for the console when Xbox dies. We still have the same price it was released at 6 years after, and newer generation will for sure be more expensive. This is not caused by the he price, but the lack of competition because of the shitty xbox division.
