Sony being an absolute dick, like they have been for the past 4 decades
This is not a new thing
💯, and despite being one the most anti-consumer companies around, the tens of millions of fanboys will buy their stuff no questions asked, and defend them to the end of the earth on all major gaming forums. Neogaf, Resetera, Reddit, ign, etc are all basically Sony fan sites where basically everyone hopes and prays for a PlayStation monopoly.
Note having said that, this was inevitable as physical game sales are basically dead. It makes sense. It’ll upset a bunch of people, but they’ll still buy every PlayStation console, sub to PS+, and buy all their games on PlayStation.
There's always Microsoft and Nintendo.
