Guess this just reinforces what was already hinted at months ago.

They don't make games I want to play anyway so this does not bother me.

Even if they did, they would still wonder why PC gamers aren't falling over themselves to buy a 2 year old game at $70.

Right. Many of the games are only "ok," and the hype phase is over at that point. If I've waited a long time anyway, I'll probably wait even longer for a steam sale. I buy lots of $70/60 full price games games that just released. I buy hardly any $70/60 games that came out from previous years. Stellar Blade did show that highly desired games will still sell incredibly well regardless on pc even with a delayed release. GTA 6 will undoubtedly do the same. I did pick up GoW on pc which was an "ok" game, but that was on a Steam sale.
I don't blame them for wanting to keep games exclusive. Xbox gave up on that, and their brand is falling apart. Sony's exclusives don't hold enough value over time after the initial hype to pull this off, and they don't want to simultaneously releases while everyone is still talking about it.
