Looks like the PS5 might have been my last Sony console after all. But who didn’t see this coming exclusives cost too much and majority of people on the console are playing third party games. People have to understand that Sony isn’t a full gaming company like Nintendo. At the end of the day it’s all about making money and the most money at that. They got a taste of the money from PC seen how much numbers Microsoft was putting up putting there exclusives on their platform and said fukk it. This news sucks for the fanboys but if you been on your way out of consoles and moved to PC and smelt the fukkin coffee from earlier this is a Win.

The writing's been on the wall 
At this point you're a bird if you pigeon hole yourself to a single console platform like PS5 or Xbox, especially if you consider yourself a gaming enthusiast.

With context
They should start giving people reasons to use their shyt and whereas the creative angle is the "dish", they need to sell the ingredients to you first. Like an action cam should have been an easy lay-up, but they don't have a good one without having to buy another Sony product to use it. Screw the lock in, become the name.
Sony following Microsoft lead again too much money out here. You have to expand more than just consoles.

Okay, I'm usually pretty good at sussing out shyt from provided context, but what does this actually disprove from his quoted comment about moving away from a hardware centric business model when it comes to gaming?This is what is being talked about.
It just seems like they're going to focus more on shyt that sells outside of the physical box, meaning console sales and keeping core audiences fed there with 1st party output is no longer the priority.
Surprised they just won't have their cake and eat it too. PS6 should be a full on legacy machine, especially if it could be the last one. Probably end up being their best selling console of all time.
So you think they are shifting from being hardware centric with everything but videogamesThis is what is being talked about.
This says the same thing as what the OP says breh.

Them old days are dead.
The Stan’s are trying to cope. What Sony has been doing lately shows they are moving to other platforms too in gaming. Helldivers on Xbox exclusives going to PC.
