Looks like Sony might be bringing trophies to PlayStation PC games

Steam already has achievements. No need for a parallel achievement system.
Another dumb decision removing PlayStation console identity.
We, as customers who prefer console, are second class citizens to PlayStation now. No two ways about it.
Would be dope if we could get a launcher too (before Steam fanboys attack me, this wouldn't mean not releasing games on Steam too).
Not having to buy Destiny expansions twice would be nice

At the very least, they should have their own launcher.
But if they're even porting their games to windows to begin with...
M.E.H
Bring games, who cares about trophies/achievements or gamerscores. One of the worst inventions of the 7rh generation.

The only plus side of having their own launcher with PS trophies is if it translated over to console as in Cross-buy type of thing. Where when you purchase a game and lets say get most of the trophies on PSN, but end up 100% it on PC? Cross buy thing would be cool but would mean select titles or maybe they just want their own Blizzard style launcher?At the very least, they should have their own launcher.

Dont know.
it would mean they would not have to cut anything to steam?
What is this "PSPC" platform? Surely, they would either call it PC or Steam?
Steam Search
"PlayStation PC" is Sony on PC.

That would effectively kill their consoles for everyone but the most casual or poor.
Consoles still need to exist to keep the riff raff off PC.
If they implement crossbuy with Steam I'd be pretty happy as a customer. But I think PS would regret it, as it would lead to me not buying their hardware and buying games on Steam more often.
"I don't want anyone to compete with Steam, but I'd love to see companies devalue their own console platforms by offering me stuff on PC I won't give a shit about no matter what."
This is basically you now.
You have zero room to talk. Even the idea of another launcher genuinely competing with Steam makes you shit your pants and go off on a multi-post rant.
For all we know that was probably Jim Ryan's next plan and, well, certain "changes" had to be made.
Because as you said, that would essentially kill off a lot of interest among enthusiasts (who generally comprise the bulk of Day 1 to Year 3/4 console sales, and the bulk of software sales & revenue) to invest in a PS6 or even a PS5 Pro, and start shifting more of their spending outside of the PS ecosystem.
Though, unless Sony scales back on the non-GaaS ports to PC, they run the risk of that still happening albeit at a reduced rate.

PlayStation management needs to be stripped down to the bone. All fired.
Move it all back to Japan and start again. Fuck these west coast cunts.
