This is why Microsoft doesn’t care about exclusivity anymore. Consoles were sold at a loss to sell software, but if you can sell your software anywhere, you’re ahead of the game.
Personally, I just just hook up my PC to my TV, run Steam in Big Picture mode, and it gives me a console experience. Not a perfect console experience, mind you, but good enough for me.
The only thing that doesn’t make it perfect for me is the fact that so many games running on PC, even if they have a console version, don’t have UI scaling options to make anything readable at TV distance.

Microsoft also has the benefit of owning Windows.
