-(_ANTHEM_)-
DSOGaming has some interesting 2017 stats and some fancy charts, regarding the game industry. Perhaps Bio will attempt to capitalize on these numbers and make the PC game an improved fun to play (ie: better port) environment. The numbers below is probably the incentive EA needed to carve out a bigger portion of the Game Market by attempting an over aggressive / predatory game designs.
Some highlights: (1) PC game sales = $32 billion (2) % of sales: PC = 28, All Consoles = 29, Mobile = 43 (3) Global Game Market Value = $116 billion

Yup, and maybe other publishers will put their exclusives to PC after a year or two of exclusivity.... fingers crossed!

I haven't read the article completely, but there are differences in those markets as well so even if BioWare did what you suggest that doesn't mean there would really be any change in sales.
As far as the "better port" argument. I think BioWare does have a pretty good system in place already. If their games have problems its across the board and not just with the PC like you see with a lot of other games such as what has happened with Neir or Wolfenstein 2. Now if you mean more PC specific features it becomes the chicken versus the egg problem, for they need to know people will buy the PC version to consider the extra time to develop features the market might not even want. It comes to mind the complaining for the ME:T where people kept complaining there wasn't controller support for the PC version of the game so now they have to design a controller system that will support two different inputs and not just one. The other thing is would anything done specifically for the PC be enough for the people that want that as well? For in my opinion they added a lot of things for PC support with Dragon Age: Inquisition and people still complained because it wasn't want they wanted.
