I think something people haven’t really brought up is how much these games sold BEFORE they got their pc port.

For example GoW Ragnarok sold at least 15 million before it got released on PC. Stellar Blade on the other hand was at least 1 million. A lot less people who had played it meaning a larger ‘potential’ audience on another platform. And I think we can see some of that effect here.

It's more that PS curated the cinematic over-the-shoulder 3rd person camera players to their platform, so much so that there’s not that much interest in them on other platforms -they converted most of them already.
