@cragis0001 I'm sure that number includes things like multiplayer titles, games like Destiny 2. Those would be the real money makers and Sony said they would continue to port the multiplayer experiences to other platforms.
I mean, hey, I want to be wrong. I ultimately sit on the fence about this from a logical standpoint. But the article does state the PC ports are only 1.5% of total revenue. 1.5% isn't nothing, but at what cost does it come with? Long term brand damage is the answer. Or at least how it's perceived. That's typically never good for anyone, including investors.
@LogicStrikesAgain The logic is there (no pun intended) I just don't think the money is. How much could Sony seriously make from their own launcher that would justify the costs of PC development? It's a catch-22 each way you slice it.
Sony just has to pick their poison, drink it and smile, I suppose.
I'm just grateful I got Uncharted and both The Last of Us games on PC. They look terrific and play great at such high frame rates on ultrawide monitors.
I will feel my eye twitch in the future though when new Uncharted and The Last of Us games happen and I can't play them on PC though.

It's not a decision I'm happy about, but it is the one that makes sense.
