More choice and lack of exclusives is positive.

Personally I really don't care.

I'm not into this 3rd person console trash. They can keep it on the Playstation for all I care

Sooooo f*cking happy to see one of my favorite games of the 8th generation showing up on PC. Like with Horizon Zero Dawn, I very badly wished God of War 4 was on PC when I was playing it on PS4, and I never would have touched it on console if I knew it was coming to PC. Better late than never though. At least I only had to pay $10 for a physical copy of the game back in 2019.

While I enjoyed previous God of War games (although I thought most of 'em were a bit too hard), especially 3 on PS3 and Ghost of Sparta on PSP, I was never really into the series. God of War 4 surprised the f*ck outta me. That sh1t grabbed me and did not let go until the very end. It was an amazing ride the whole way through. I had a f*cking blast pretty much the entire time. Just an excellent game all around. A very memorable video gaming experience. Cory Barlog and his crew really busted their @sses off, and it shows. The game's development took a heavy toll on him, and he came out the other side looking noticeably worn, tired, and older, but all his efforts really f*ckin paid off. A game like this should not be locked to one platform. Again, I can NOT express how happy I am that it will finally be available on PC.

D4mn straight. Personally I feel that every single video game should be available on the platform where it runs, looks, and plays best - PC.

I mean, I wouldnt FORCE anyone to port their title to all platforms. That could quickly get out of hand, but I would support some kind of measures to prevent exclusives by design. And not just platform based, but store/launcher based as well.
