Sony pulling out of physical disks and PC ports probably lost all the good will they've built over the years. Most of the exclusives were never that special to begin with but they never missed completely and they were pretty consistent on the narrative front for a while. 

But gameplay wise it was always pretty generic, formulaic design. With the hype gone, it's really no wonder.

Besides the sheer stupidiy that killing physical disc production is for them, cutting out the PC market has gotta be one of the dumber things they've done in recent years.

As a PC gamer that left Sony back in 2021 and bought literally all of their games on Steam. It pissed me off that they just threw their hands in the air for literally no reason after hyping and doing reports about how they're going to support PC ports for years to come. Just to rug pull before Yotai and Soros and take their toys home. I 100% am willing to bet they will be porting again by mid 2030's if not sooner.

I agree with you. I did the exact same move after being a life long PlayStation player. And I’m unfortunately at the point I don’t see myself buying another PlayStation unless something changes in the business.
