Many may have a great PC, before the next batch of consoles.

I also play a lot of strategy games that only release on pc and work much better on m+kb than on controller.

Also there was an article recently where YoshiP explained why the timed exclusive.

TL: DR included was "generous technical support" from Sony.

Edit: Reading back, it's probably more accurate to say it was "one of the big reasons" why the timed exclusive rather than my implied singular reason.

MMO - hmmm.... like 14 whose controller use is highly lauded?

modding - I'll give you that.

convenience - hmmm..........

Great PC - every great PC I've tried to make are always more expensive than a current gen console, and since I don't use them to work at home, the choice is obvious

It's actually been getting criticized quite a bit lately, although some of that probably has more to do with current job design than the actual controls. Simply put, some of the jobs now have enough buttons that playing them on a controller is just vastly more problematic than doing so on mouse and keyboard.

I started out playing the game on a controller, but over the years I've had little recourse other than to abandon it in favor of the more convenient option. Is it still doable? Yes, of course. The juice just isn't worth the squeeze most of the time.

You can get a prebuilt with performance equal to or greater than current gen consoles for close to the same price if you're mindful of where you buy, what you buy, and when you buy it. Alternatively, you could save some money by building it yourself.
