On the PC side of things we've had the Epic vs Steam store war, which has hurt PC gaming overall. 

Other than an increase of whiny gamers, how has this hurt PC gaming?

EGS has always online DRM, meaning that once the servers for a game go down your game is unplayable. So you are forced to choose between an always online DRM version of a game, or waiting a year for it to finally hit Steam. 

Also, it's really inconvenient to have multiple launchers. GoG, or Steam, or I'm not buying your game.

PC gaming has been on the winning side in the past 4.5 years. Microsoft has stopped to make most of their games exclusive to Xbox, so now all of them are coming to the PC with day and date releases; Game Pass is also available for PC gamers. Numerous smaller Japanese developers have not only ported their games to PC, but nowadays it's more common than ever that their games release simultaneously on consoles and PC. Sony is also looking to release games on the PC. Lastly, with Nintendo joining the fray of online subscriptions, PC gamers are now the only ones who aren't asked to pay a second time for something that they have already paid for.

Meh, it's just MLB, IPs that Sony never truly owned, and making games available on PS Now, which isn't really PC.
