Makes it even worse that Sony keeps exclusives to their console. And reportedly reduced or stopped single player first party games on PC.

There’s nothing left besides Gran Turismo for years now, and I’m not shelling $800 for a GT7 access box.

The effects of reduced or no further single player games from Sony on PC will be felt in future. Until now Sony was happily porting their games to PC, but after some reports it looks like that will change. So while the recent games are ported over, new games will probably not. So I am worried for the future, not for current available games.

Sony lost monopoly on Monster Hunter twice in the west now, as they have on top fighting games by Cap and Bamco.
Spidey series came to a happy end. Everyone is surely tired of Horizon by now. What exclusives does Sony even have nowadays with amazing replayability?
And for story heavy titles - youtube playthroughs exist as well as blogs and wikis.

As said, this is about future first party games. The new policy doesn’t have immadiate effect on current developed games. The signal I get is, if true, then new Sony first party games will be locked to their console without porting it to PC. Multiplayer games will be an exception to this apparently.
This is for me a non option, regardless of what game it is. I either play it or don’t. If the game is a movie rather than a videogame, then I am not interested into it anyway. Watching a playthrough or video on YouTube (or any other service) is absolutely something I would not do (and never done) for this kind of thing.
