^This. Sony needs to learn to push console sales and focus on good single-player exclusives that are around 20-40 hours long. No more PC ports. No more GaaS. Everything runs at 60 FPS because graphical fidelity is too expensive and 60 FPS should be standard. Exclusive games that people can actually finish and don't wind up being 800 million dollar boondoggles. 

So far, there hasn't been any serious consequences from the "mistakes" you mention though. Have the Gaas and PC ports really hurt them? Did people stop buying Playstations like people did with Xbox's ? PlayStation 5 may look like a failure compared to PS4 but PS4 was a less ambitious in its design and engineered with immediate profit in mind. It was always going to be hard to compete with PS4 sales.  

GaaS has definitely hurt them. Between buying Bungie and cancelled GaaS products they've burned 6 billion with no profits outside of Destiny money. PC ports will hurt them next gen. PC ports are a "good for business in the short term, but awful for business in the long term" type of strategy.
