I don't think they're that dumb, I can see them making their own launcher with PS+ sub to get free games or something like gamepass, but locking online play behind a paywall on PC sounds too braindead even for them, it'd be an even worse PR suicide attempt than Epic's exclusivity shenanigans.
Sony has a long history of braindead decisions that have fucked over their user base.
