This is affecting many PC gamers around the world, such as myself, as the last 3 PlayStation releases on Steam have been blocked in many countries. I wanna know what's your take on this. Please be respectful, and thank you. 😊

I think honestly they might be looking to have their own platform on PC one day to not paying the platform fee.

if they keep using steam backend for part of their PC framework, they will pay a lot more in the end, compare to invest now take some flames and properly push for their account backend on PC WHILE have steam's market place/distribution work for them.

Don't get me wrong, Sony already have the capability to server digital contents to all the PS5s, but it's a closed system and no worry about hacking etc as much compare to PC.
