This is literally their point. Windows gaming is a convoluted mess of stores that you have to juggle, a far cry from the experience Apple has been trying to offer to consumers.
- _aavaa_ 2y agoHaving to click, once, between different stores if you really care about a game is not some convoluted process. And analogies to streaming services don’t hold up for a few reasons: 1. There’s no ongoing cost to have an account at the each, purchases are one time. 2. Games do not leave services the way shows leave streaming sites.
- joeblubaugh 2y ago> Games do not leave services the way shows leave streaming sites This already isn’t accurate, and it’s getting less so all the time.
- _aavaa_ 2y agoI guess I’d like to see some examples of games being pulled from stores and also from the libraries of paid customers.
- jncfhnb 2y agoIt’s not convoluted. There’s just multiple stores. You can get 99.9% of the games you want on steam.
