@mibu no ookami thinks that it's absolutely worth for Sony to put everything on Steam and cannibalize PS Store and PS consoles/handhelds in the long term future.
You really seem to be struggling with this. It's definitely impacting you on a personal level but only because you frame everything as a fanboy. You've lost nothing. Move on.
It is absolutely perfect business sense for Sony to expand their platform to PC. Their PC launcher and PC sales will grow annually, and it will be consistent operating income over time.
Imagine Sony owned FromSoftware and they didn't put Elden Ring 2 on PC despite the fact that probably more than half the games sales come from PC. How do you think this impacts budgets and future salaries?
This obsession with Sony putting games on PC is childish.
If they were cannibalizing sales, Sony would know it. This is a fact that you seem to not understand.
interesting how consoles are rising in game sales even after the pandemic ended
Sony full predicted a rise in console sales. They were rising before the pandemic. The pandemic just created a short influx of sales and growth that were not sustainable in the short term.
