Yeah, I don’t recall a single original game from the PS5 exclusive lineup (that wasn’t available for PS4). We did get some remakes and sequels, but the PS5 lineup pales in comparison to the PS4 one. Also, to my knowledge, the PS5 still lags behind the PS4 in terms of sales, despite the significant boost that COVID-19 provided.

The PS4 lineup pales in comparison to the PS3 lineup, which pales in comparison to the PS2 lineup, which pales in comparison to the PS1 lineup. Each generation has around half the number of games as the previous. This does get a bit murky with the advent of shovelware in online stores, but my point remains. I think this only proves is that games are now ridiculously expensive to create and met the quality standards expected. Maybe AI will improved this in this future. Take-Two has confirmed that GTA6's budget has exceeded US$1 billion, which is mind-blowing.

Returnal is probably one the best 1st party games available and it’s a PS5 exclusive. Its sequel Saros is coming out next year too. There’s also Spider-Man 2, Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, Astro Bot, Death Stranding 2, Ghost of Yotei… Their output hasn’t been worse than the PS4 at all imo.

The most extreme example of this is that Naughty Dog, one of Sony's flagship first-party studios, has still yet to release a single original game for the PS5 after nearly five years. They've steadily been making fewer and fewer brand new games each generation and it's looking like they may only release one this time around. AAA development cycles are out of control.
