I own all three consoles and use my Xbox One for third/first party online gaming because Xbox One doesn't, for one thing, ever go down for "routine maintenance". Can't tell you how many fucking times I would go on my PS4 to play online and have to put up with that shit. It's inexcusable.

So for me, the Xbox One definitely has its place. Yes, it's lacking in exclusives but, for me, its worth owning for XBL alone.

One could make the same argument for PC gaming. On the other hand, PC gaming has free online. 
Sure, Xbox One doesn't have the same downtime for its servers as PS4's online service. However, that option is available elsewhere. 
I do find it worth noting that specific games on the Xbox One has had severe server issues, such as the Master Chief Collection, which is inexcusable.

Every game ever made and played online has had times where it doesn't work. That is something that you just can't avoid. As for PC gaming, I wish I could get into it but I just can't. I have a Steam account with probably twenty great indie games and have finished exactly none of them. I think it's because I grew up with a controller in my hand and never played on PC. It just feels alien in a lot of ways. All-digital gaming is a large part of that.
