The only game I still play from time to time is Rock Smith 2014 on a X-box I bought specifically for that. I wouldn’t even care to connect to any account if this wasn’t required to access the store. There is two account required to access the whole game actually, one that is X-box/Microsoft account without with I guess the console is as useful as a brick, and one for Ubisoft which saves your progresses, give access to a few bonuses most notably the song Desolate Motion[1]. I don’t know where the record about acquired songs is supposed to be store, I would except it to be a Microsoft side handled stuff, but I remember that sometimes Ubisoft servers would be down and that would make bought tracks unavailable. I had a look at Rocksmith+ but was utterly disappointed with the monthly subscription fee model they went with.

I started learning guitar during Covid and I purchased Rocksmith 2014 as a complement to Justin Sandercoe’s excellent series of courses. I’m curious about why you bought an X-box specifically for Rocksmith. Does it perform better with an X-box than a PC? I purchased the game from Steam and it runs fine – if a little hot – on a Windows 10 laptop. So far, the only problem I’ve had on the PC was note detection when playing open strings for the “String Skip Saloon” game.

I doubt it, but I already didn’t have any Windows box to run it at home, and wanted something as dummy as possible to only play the game with any other distraction around. Would they buy a dedicated device, I would buy that if it just run and let me play.

    Thanks for the response. My Linux laptop is about 15 years old but I was able to use the Dell XPS that I got when we had to work from home due to Covid.
