    I think it’s fair to say Sony actually doesn’t care about a successful game or not. They want a permanent recurring slice of the PC gaming market pie. Games be damned. They want their own platform like epic

      Epic is really not a platform anyone should aspire to…

        I’m sure the thinking is, Sony is already making games for this PlayStation platform. With publisher money and in-house studios. Creating their own online store platform like epic, would just be extra money for them. And help grow a market they haven’t tapped yet. They’re not thinking about it as giving up money that they could have made just by being on steam.

        This is a big hypothetical, I’m doing lots of projection, and reading into their PSN moves. But it lines up
