If these rumors are true then good. Single-player games have been Sony's bread and butter for a while now. Getting their first-party studios to suddenly pivot to making live-service games was always going to have problems. Leaning on third parties and studios like Bungie makes much more sense and might actually lead to decent games in the long run. Then again this is all speculation so we'll see if Sony is actually changing anything.
