It's not simply that they don't view PC as a vaible platform, it probably has more to do with how multiplat is the meta for modern releases and everyone tells you that platform exclusives are dead and no longer viable. Even Inti Creates in the image I posted spells out this sentiment.
>It became a situation where we worked hard to make the game, but which platform can we release it on? If I said, “Let's release it only on the platforms we can release it on,” I would end up making a new GirlGun game, and the people who enjoyed the previous game, PC, PlayStation, and Xbox, would be angry because they couldn't play it even if they wanted to.
>That's what's happening now, and it's really limiting for indie developers. There are fewer platforms that we want to make, that we want to put out, that we want to enjoy, and we may not be thinking about how to do that as a business first.
No one wants to release platform exclusives any more because they see it as bad for business. Just a month or two ago this one PC game, Ready or Not, announced it was getting a console release after being PC exclusive for a while, and censorship was required, and they decided to backport the censorship to the PC version instead of maintain two separate versions, and it caused pretty major backlash.
