The reason I see as more simple, PCs were just more accessible due to cost and were easy enough for players to use, Microsoft invested in the tech so they’d perform well. So most gaming dev tech has a late 90s feel about it to this day. |

This is the core of the reason. This extends beyond just the dev tooling they created, though. It also includes partnering with NVidia and ATI to create the best performing video drivers. Apple put a similar effort into making mobile games easy to make and performant, which is why they are the dominant platform in mobile gaming.
