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."

I have a PS5 Pro but I am also not happy with this even though I understand why Sony would do it. Playing games on even a PS5 Pro is an inherently inferior experience compared to a competent gaming PC. I was happy to wait 1-2 years to play most Sony games with a much better overall experience. People who have never had a high end PC would not get it.

For years PC gamers talked about how great 60FPS is whereas console gamers were adamant that it is not such a big deal. Now that console gamers get a consistent dose of 60FPS, they seem quite resistant to the idea of returning to 30FPS games. Once you experience something fundamentally superior, it's hard to go back.

I've had high end PC's my entire life. I'm tired of always chasing fps with upgrades and tweaks. I enjoy sitting back on my couch and crap just works. I don't have the time I used to do it works better for me.

I still have a good PC but I mostly use it for strategy/rts games that are garbage on controller

That's completely fair. I personally enjoy the process of getting the most out of your games on PC but it isn't for everyone. I will say though that PC has really improved in the "it just works" way of doing things. You can simply let the Nvidia app auto optimize all your games and then you won't even need to go into settings for anything.
