when you could easily get a PC and play all of the exclusives Xbox has to offer?

A PS5 is a better investment seeing as Playstation has not just more exclusive titles, but quality exclusive titles than Xbox.

I am not on the console war tip though, I just don't understand why someone would pay for an Xbox.

bcuz it’s instant plug and play…and some ppl don’t look at a console as an “investment”…as a result they just simply like gaming on the xbox more…they like the ecosystem, how it plays/handles multiplat games that their friends play (who also own xbox’s), etc.

Not everybody can afford to spend $1000+ on a gaming PC. Plus, xbox is plug and play and many prefer to game on a couch over a desk. A lot of people just want to play sports and shooters, so you're better off with an Xbox instead of a gaming PC.

Xbox is cheaper and more convenient/simple. plus people might already be invested in the ecosystem

and a lot of misconceptions:
-you have to play at a desk
-you have to use mouse/keyboard
-you have to constantly update drivers
-you have to buy a new GPU every year
-etc

Because not everybody feels going PC with it. While there are definitely advantages to playing on PC, but for some people, when you start throwing in multiple storefronts/launchers, the dice roll of PC ports, and general hardware/optimization fukkery, the juice ain't worth the squeeze for some. To each their own. As long as someone isn't forcing themselves to play on a platform they don't really like, they're doing just fine.
