Not always.

The PC is an overall larger gaming market than either singular console platform both in terms of gamer numbers and cash, I wouldn't underestimate it.

It's also easily the largest "Next gen" platform in terms of users too, for a little while longer anyway, if the Steam statistics are anything to go by.

PC is an overall is a very different market. PC gaming often succeeds best in genres that may not do well on consoles and vice versa.

With that said, its no wonder why Titanfall is designed with consoles in mind first.

You are correct, there are genre's which do amazingly well on PC and not on consoles and vice versa, but there are a few exceptions like Battlefield and Skyrim and probably others due to the heavy realiance on digital downloads which are never tracked. (Skyrim had 5+ million playing at once at one point, that beats out the PS3.)

As for Titanfall, it's headed by the guys that did Call of Duty, no thinking is required to wonder why it's designed with consoles first in mind. :P
The player count and hardware requirements say it all really and I would hedge a bet that the sales will reflect that, but that's not a fault of the PC as a platform, more the fault of the developers not caring enough to push boundries towards PC centric audiences which can potentially pay off in spades.
And it forces you to use Origin... Ugh.
