What's funny is the notion that somehow there is a belief that consoles have overtaken PC as the preferred video game medium, yet recent studies done by the ESA shows anywhere between a 56-62% marketshare worldwide for PC vs 52-54% for console gaming (including handhelds). Even for esport, 4 of the top earning games are on PC only. Not only that, gaming revenue wise, PC gaming generated over 400% in revenue vs XB, PS, and Ninty combined. Sure closes that door on that " most gamers don't want to game on pc" notion being thrown around.

 

Which goes back to the OP.. with a lack of true exclusives, current and future-wise, there is nothing there on X1 that gives an incentive to pick one up.  If can play the same games elsewhere then why bother?   

Too bad that the PC community sucks ass. The majority of PC gamers are also egomaniacs who care more about the equipment that went inside their PC rather than the games it plays. Also, China, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and some parts of Japan who are factored into your statistics, don't even OWN a PC. They play their games at internet cafes for a fee. China just barely got the PS4 in 2015, but it won't take off because it's much cheaper to play at internet cafes still. The Asian territories who primarily game at internet cafes, probably account for 250% of that 400% revenue number, and 28% of that market share number. Also PC exclusives suck ass. They can have League of Legends. 

Then explain PC gaming just in the US alone.. which accounts for 56% vs 52% for consoles. Revenue alone in North America for PC gaming is around 13billion vs 6.6billion for consoles worldwide.
