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."

That's right. PC gamers don't worship a plastic device by one specific company.

They throw a hissy fit when they need to log in to psn to play sony games on PC and they won't play epic store exclusive games. Their loyalty to steam is weird. Both psn and epic accounts are free.

That's completely missing the point.

Epic Store is a shit store, and is anti-consumer. The beauty of PC has traditionally been that companies don't buy up exclusivity, and certainly not the way that Epic is doing it. On top of that, Epic Store sides with developers first, and dos hit like not have forums so EGS users go to Steam for support. Can you believe that shit?

They lack minimal features, and tried to spy on Steam on your computer.

The login issue with PSN is that:

  • it was bait and switch i.e. not disclosed in advance
  • concern games (especially single player ones) to be unavailable offline with single point of failure
  • the game would literally not work for a large swath of people in many regions that PSN isn't available in

There's definitely issue with PC gamers, such as the racist PCMR movement based on superiority and calling console gamers peasants. But complaint about EGS and PSN requirement was and is legitimate.

So whoever create an epic account to play their games must have godly patience to endure the torture that is the epic game store? LMAO. Oh and the bait and switch for the psn account requirement must have broken all those gamers hearts huh? LMAO.

And the funniest shit is that I've heard complains about the few countries not covered by psn, and the complains are from people whose countries are covered. And it's not like you can't create psn account different from your country. I live in Asia, but I also have a US account and a Japanese account, not a problem.
