Yeah, well this is partly why PCs don’t get all the games. Uniform hardware of the consoles and subscriptions to access online play makes them a lot more attractive. Less dev cost, more $. E: plus consoles cost less than a good gaming PC, so that means more players to buy more games.
They’re just rehashed and reskinned SOSDD. Same franchises been around forever, it’s too much of a gamble to risk big on something new. Starfield, for example, is proof enough.
I think this is getting less true, and especially with Game Pass and now Sony putting a lot of first party titles on PC, I’m hard pressed to think of a AAA game that isn’t available, or won’t be if I don’t mind waiting a 6 months.

The publishers/Developers never see that online subscription money. They have to host their own servers anyways.
Ftfy.
PC gets a fuckton more games than consoles, very few games are actually console exclusive and especially exclusive to all consoles but not PC.
I don’t remember the last AAA I played. They’re just not good anymore

Makes sense, they need a carrot to lure people into their walled garden.
