I bet someone thought that selling on the most hated store on the PC realm, without physical copies, sold exclusively for current gen consoles on their exclusive storefronts, would never lead to unprofitability.
@darkghosthunter Another detail I'd add to this are the PC system requirements, which further limited the game's reach on top of the store exclusivity.
I really enjoyed Alan Wake and Control, but I couldn't run Alan Wake 2 with my hardware and I'm not about to upgrade for a single game (or even a few games).
Honestly, there was a time where MariaDB was relevant, and that was when PostgreSQL was weird, MS SQL was costly, and MySQL was on the verge of being proprietary.
Today, MS SQL has low entrance barriers, MySQL still works, and PostgreSQL is versatile and rock solid.
