Depending on what year you put Minecraft in, 2009 when it was first made public, or 2011, when it was "officially" launched (though at that point it wasn't PC exclusive anymore), that could be the one that wins.

Not that PC won't have some really great exclusives going forward, but yeah, generally speaking, most PC devs and publishers went multiplatform, some with OG XBOX, like Bethesda and Bioware, some few years later with PS360, so really slim chances of PC exclusive winning again for quite some time (unless VG Chartz harbours secret cults of ARMA, Witcher 1, STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl, SPORE, Machinarium or something like that).

I do think it is possible for a PC only game to win going forward, but it will be tough.  What I don't see happening at all is two PC games taking the GOTY and runner up spot in the same year again.  That is what makes 2004 unique.

I don't really see PC exclusive winning for quite some time - LoL is massive, but I don't think enough people care for it around here. Disco Elysium is more than deserving to win, but I really doubt it - even among RPG fans, that one is less known and probably too weird for lot of people.
