I didn't say the games would disappear. That's not my contention. I would be much angrier if that's what they were planning. It adds another layer of bs that we already have to deal with. It makes the game launch take twice as long. You now have to install another application just to play the game you bought on STEAM. It's hell on Linux systems because most launchers are garbage bloatware. I could keep going but for me, there is no positive that outweighs these negatives.
Having a PlayStation store on PC doesn't imply that at all. Like I said, Microsoft's stuff just works.
Sony doesn't need to pull petty bullshit to drag people to their store. Cross purchase is plenty.
