I highly doubt that has ever been seriously considered by Sony. Even they know that PC games HATE paying for online and won't ever do it on PC
Sony thinks they’ll sell consoles when they make Helldivers 3 a PlayStation 6 exclusive. “Hey, you’ve already made the PSN account; why not?”
Capitalism is the 1980s drug pusher your DARE officer warned you about
Of course Helldivers 3 will be an exclusive during at least the first years. They might then release it on PC and earn even more money. No one is buying a PS6 or whatever just because they made a free account.
Everyone knows what PC gamers hate at this point; publishers still screw us all the time for monetary gain and subscriptions are the new hot thing to screw people over to make money right now. I wouldn't discount it as a possibility.
Especially if we allow “changing the deal” to become an acceptable business practice
