I get that, and I wish naughty dog would get back to making games and not “training their new staff” for like a decade. I have no intention of buying this release and think it’s unnecessary. I’m just trying to say this doesn’t need to be a pc/console or Sony bad kinda thing.
When we switched to x64, it was clear we were going to stay on x64, and there was very little reason to keep treating new consoles as dramatically different things the way they were for every previous generation. They decided to keep doing the old way, because it’s more lucrative for them. So yes, this is basically a “Sony bad” kind of thing, and because they’re the leader in this segment of the market, they know they can get away with it in a way that Xbox can’t. But simultaneously, for this and plenty of other reasons, PC has been steadily gaining market share for over a decade and now controls more of it than any one console. I’d attribute a good amount of that to knowing that what you bought will continue to work into the future, including running old games at better settings without having to buy it again, not needing a subscription to play online multiplayer, and not needing to buy new peripherals that do the same exact thing as the old peripherals.
