Yeah I’ve got a ps5 and psvr2. I did spend a little money near the start of having the VR on a couple games I bought through their online store, but have since given Sony $0. No psplus subscription (or even much temptation to get one; I have no idea what it even gives you and don’t really care either way), no new game purchases, though I have given EB games some money for used games.
Not sure how typical of a user I am (eg someone else did buy all of those used games new at some point), but loss leading would have just been giving me cheap hardware for no other benefit to them.
It shifted into “fuck you no more money” when I broke one of the VR controllers and found out that there was no way to get a new one without buying a full VR set and getting it serviced involved sending the whole VR set to them. Ended up fixing it myself but the thing left a bad taste in my mouth. So greedy, wasteful, and/or lazy.
