      I feel like it’s pretty straightforward. Sony releases far more ports and remakes than newly developed original games.

        It would be nice if they could just release things on pc in the first place then we wouldn’t have to mess around with all these extra releases

          They delay the PC release in hopes that you’ll buy a PS5 to play the sequel. I doubt it’s a very effective strategy, though.

        I mean, I don’t think they’re any slower to release new games than anyone else. I also don’t think the next Spider-Man or whatever is going to come out any slower because of ports either, since I think a different studio handles most of the porting work, I don’t know about remasters, though. Like this year, they’re releasing 5 new games, and they usually release at least 3 a year. Could they release more? Maybe, but games take longer to make than ever before.

          Wasn’t really intended as a comparison with any other developer either. They’re just a relevant example pertaining to a larger industry issue.
