Been following the debate, I’m just gonna throw out there people didn’t buy PS4 in the millions year 1 to play KZ Shadowfall and Knack. They bought the console for an investment in the new generation and to play the best versions of cross gen titles. BC tends to be a feature people want around launch period to ease themselves into the next gen/finish off unplayed games. 

But hey if that’s not your cup of tea you can wait for the first round of price cuts. That’s what I did for 360 and XB1. This time around I just don’t want to play the “poor mans” version of Halo Infinite. I imagine that mentality is felt by many others in regards to cross gen multiplats if they have the money to do something about it. 

Cross-gen releases and BC are two different things. Sure people buy a new console to play the better version of cross-gen titles. Heck I held off on GTA 5 because there was no chance it wasn't going to get a ps4 release (despite many people claiming it wouldn't). And I'm not going to buy Cyberpunk either for ps4, will wait until I have a ps5. Some other games did get free updates like Flower, nice to have but not what I bought a ps4 for.

Yet BC, didn't miss it. I'm not going to buy a ps5 looking forward to play ps3 games on it.

Yes they are different, I just meant to say BC tends to be a requested feature every gen around launch period and then dies down in the later half of year 1.
