I saw an ad for the game on Twitch that prominently mentioned the PC version but barely mentioned the PS5 version until near the end. It's clear which platform they're focusing the game's sales on and it's not PS5.

Also 100% calling it that Until Dawn 2, a non-GAAS, 1P AAA-style narrative-driven production, will be the first Day 1 PC release of that type from SIE. So either 2025 or 2026. We know this through the XDEV leak.

What about LEGO Horizon? Oh right, that one doesn't count because it's a LEGO game.
Let's see what the excuse will be if UD2 really launches day-1 on PC (if they don't cancel it after UD Remake bombing).

The Lego game could be a ploy to reach all those nintenkids with a Horizon ip, enticing them to try the proper games on PlayStation. Still dumb tho.

After playing lego horizon the kids will get an early headstart in realizing borizon zero charm sucks balls

HZD and HFW are both brilliant and some of Sony's best games ever. I only have 3 platinums, and one of the from HFW and it wasn't intentional but because I've swept the whole fucking map and enjoyed it fully for over a month.

The guy is 100% correct, especially in the part that follows:

Totoki is desperately trying to turn Sony into Apple (try to increase the perception of value for their products, increase prices at a lower volume), and all companies that tried to become Apple have failed miserably.

The guy is a bean counter through and through, and he doesn't seem to understand what makes console gaming appealing beyond whatever study some consultant made with the results he wanted to see.

Looks like they are bringing their asinine software strategy to hardware as well, all it will take is 2-3 first party games flopping to sink the ship completely. These people have no backup plans, and deserve every failure going forward

They want to increase the value of their products but at the same time they devalue it by porting games to other pltforms
