It would be interesting if they did Day and Date near the end of the generation, but walked it back for the launch of the PlayStation 6, because its a scenario I could see happening with the next God of War and Horizon in 2027/2028, when PS5 hardware sales are nearly topped out. 

However, I don't think Hiroki Totoki is saying anything new here, and it already aligns with what Sony is starting to do with their live service games. 

Nah, there is no going back once the rug has been pulled lol. That would just be bad business and would sour the PC playerbase that they worked on a nearly a decade at that point to build up. 

He saying in general first party. He's not referring to only live service.
