A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Obviously I don't have first-hand information, but from I'd guess Sony is responsible for a lot of (japanese) games not coming to PC or Xbox, as Atlus isn't the only studio doing this that isn't owned by Sony.

Another thing that shows, that Sony has no interest in connecting gamers between systems is cross-play, which it blocks in various titles iirc.

I know it's the smart move to drive out competition when you're in charge of the biggest market share, but preventing gamers to play on any platform they choose is bad for them. I play exclusively on PC since the Gamecube (with the exception of the switch) so I'm very happy to see the PlayStation gulag crumbling with increasing Steam releases. We all profit from open platforms.
