Someone there has a fetish for getting overshadowed. Only reasonable explanation.

HFW —> Elden Ring

I never got around to playing the DLC on PS5. Will eventually get this on Steam when the price comes down to the DLC level.

After Zero dawn and Zelda BOTW
After Forbidden west and Elden Ring
And Forbidden west PC and Dragon Dogma's 2
Are these guys sadistic motherfuckers or what?

Different fanbases? Most people who double dip is a low percentage.
It's like there's 2 promoters in the same city promoting music at a club. They don't usually shake hands and decide who will concede and put their event at a later date. It's most likely may the best man win.

Either they took them down or for some reason they are not showing as available in the new NVIDIA App and only show in GeForce Experience, which you seem to be using.Drivers are up too.
EDIT: They are still up on their site and available elsewhere. Odd that the new NVIDIA app does not show them as available.
EDIT #2: Had to just manually download and install the drivers. It refused to update through the app no matter what I did.

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
The first title was kinda niche (even if it ended up selling 8M units) but the sequel... it's showing as top seller worldwide on Steam only below CS and Helldivers, and that's not counting keys sold through resellers like G2A, Instant-gaming and the like.
Between Game of Thrones a few years ago, and now Elden Ring and Baldur's Gate 3... I think medieval/fantasy stuff has become quite popular amongst the general public, which I think helps boosting this kind of game sales.

DD2 is going to break Capcom's concurrent 334k record with MHW with ease if it's even remotely good.

I don't think the audience differ they much
But surely Sony isn't trying to sell gangbusters at launch date, they seem to play more the long term sales on PC, considering their games tend to have stable sales for years after release, kinda like Nintendo on their consoles (not the amount but the hoe stable they are)

Exposing the sinister cartel of retailers who allow companies to pay for advertising space.
There are no cross platform saves for HFW. You'd have to replay close to the entire game on PC before you can finally start with the DLC.
I am in the same position but I have no burning urge to replay HFW. One time is more than enough.

Maybe they just don't care bout PC too much for their singleplayer games.

I don't expect it to do big numbers, the first one sold well but it was probably due to the novelty of having Sony releasing their games on Steam.
Also as usual, Sony is doing the bare minimum promoting the release on PC.
Nixxes's in charge of the port so hopefully it runs well enough at least.

Then, they dont care neither of PS releases, since they released their games near ER and BotW...

Neither of those games is a threat to Horizon sales.
BotW isn't even on the same platform.
The reason they bring their PC ports at a later date is because it's just some extra revenue when sales on consoles have pretty much dried up.Or their console sales, going by this logic
That actually proves that consoles are their main focus and PC is just an afterthought to get a little boost at a later stage.
So releasing alongside a game like Dragon's Dogma is a non-issue, as the game will sell regardless.
All that matters is that it doesn't generate less revenue than it cost to port the game.

So they launched it on PC the same day as DD2 because they don’t care about sales. But they launched both their previous games on console the same week as 2 much bigger games than DD2 because…. ?

Honestly they are probably fine just waiting. They've been waiting this long might as well wait even longer for a PC sale.

Thinks buying more servers can fix a bad patch
Currently one of the top revenue sellers on Steam.
Globally behind Counter-Strike 2, Dragon’s Dogma 2, Helldivers 2, Steam Deck and Apex Legends.

Everyone plans to sell as much as possible at launch, since that’s when sale price is highest
That doesn’t seem to match with available data for most of their PC releases.
Think I will get this at some point, I've played it on ps5 and it's by far one of the best games I've seen. Have a fairly good PC so would like to see it in all its glory but have to much to play at the moment. Anyone with a good PC and no ps5 should really give it a try, the games kinda average but it's worth playing just for how fucking good it looks eiva way.

Game, shockingly, unlocks at 11AM. I was going to pass on this for now, but this is the perfect time to grind back to roughly the end of "Act 1" (no such thing exists in the game) while waiting for DD2 to unlock.
. . .hopefully will be able to get 4K/60 on a 6800XT/5600X (has to be possible with FSR given DF's preview of the PC version).
