He did it, the absolute madman.
Phil Spencer says Microsoft "will ship games on Steam again"
"I look at Steam today, it's on an incredible growth trajectory. It's a massive force in gaming; a positive force. I think it will be bigger a year from now than it is today. And five years later it will still be bigger again," Spencer said. "I look at Valve as an important [independent software vendor] for us on Windows. They are a critical part of gaming's success on Windows. I don't think Valve's hurt by not having our first-party games in their store right now. They're doing incredibly well. We will ship games on Steam again."

At least they admitted that steam loses next to nothing by not having MS crap. GFWL was a failure, no one cares about windows store.
That said, no windows 10 for me. And I still hope Valve will continue to support and market steam os, Windows is just too cancerous now.

because this shit was installed in an update in Win7/8 as well, so as long as you didnt remove it this is just hypocrite. Especially if you use smartphones, where you also get spied every second. There is literally no reason not to bite the bullet and get the OS that actually is worth it for perfomance gains alone.

But I never installed that update in 7. Now how many updates can you decline with 10?
>>341734460
Because I play older games that may or may not break with Windows updates. Why risk it if it's not worth it to me?

I'm a lolicon living in America and I use Windows 10. I'm not a retarded fuck so I didn't disable "spying" and I never had problem even though loli can you get years of jail in america nowadays.

>to support and market steam os
It was released some months ago and they didn't even announce it on the steam store, the steam os is ogre, I just hope they push more games towards linux though.
>>341734054
serious answer. I can't play some of my favorite games (dark corners of the earth) on win7 because of compatibility problems. these games worked fine on win xp on the same hardware, so it must be a software thing. I don't want the same thing to happen again when I switch to win10.
>>341734905
>pajeet's first day of meme course
So ignoring Win10/7, what MS games have even been released this gen? In the future? Will anyone even care about their games?
I think they'd have a lot of success with releasing old games on Steam though. Particularly Halos.
What is objectively wrong with Windows 10? I mean what is wrong with the kernel and actual OS? I'm not talking about the spyware and telemetry shit because you can remove all that directly from the registry and Windows folder (but there are some retards out there who actually think you can't and it's all built in at a kernel level).
>>341733657
So why are people complaining about Win10 being a botnet? You use Steam, another botnet.
>"BUT /G/ TOLD ME WINDOWS 10 IS BAD"
Come on, no one actually believes /g/ says anything of relevance right, its a board where half of itis fanboys and the rest of it is weebs?

>exclusives are bad, they hurt the industry, you're basically holding games hostage

Why do people care so much if others don't want windows 10? People seem to be pushing it as hard as MS. It doesn't affect youdoes it?

>>341734950
What they need to do is make is an all around completely user friendly primary OS. So much so that PC gamers can use it for everything so they wouldn't even need windows 10.
If Steam OS gave an FPS boost to games, was a user friendly complete OS and maybe had a couple of exclusive games, people would slowly adopt it.
>>341733657
> celebrating monopolies
>>341735043
It's a mess of code a microsoft employer showed some proof how it is W7 with much more convoluted shit thrown in.
Without even mentioning how shit the whole appostore is and that you need at least half an hour to uninstall all the ads and shit after the first installation, some can only be removed through powershell and more useless stuff like cortana can only be removed through registry editing.
>>341734930
>"HURR IF YOU HAVE NUFFIN TO HIDE THEN YOU HAVE NUFFIN TO FEAR DURR"
I like too quote Richelieu on that one: "give me one ling written by the hand of a honest man, and I'll find enough in it to imprison him".
Doesn't really matter that you're trustworthy if the power in place isn't, and you have removed all the power checks in place that were supposed to limit misbehavior.
>>341734950
Vale doesn't really care about SteamOS being a success, all that matters is that it's enough a of a viable possibility that MS has to parley, so to speak. They'd much rather have the staus quo than being forced into a tough market transition.
>>341735276
Steam OS is literally rebranded Ubuntu. It's already user friendly as you can get and offers a FPS boost over some games in Windows, namely in Source Engine games.

>>341735276
>>341735360
Ubuntu is already userfriendly the problem is that devs don't fully support linux, nor there's a huge demand for it because everyone just uses windows.
>>341735358
Windows 10 uses the same kernel as 8, 7, Vista , XP, and even Windows 2000. Nothing has changed at a basic level.
Windows store and Cortana can be removed forever in less than 2 minutes if you aren't retarded.
>>341735690
It doesn't take 2 minutes, like I said, if you know what you are doing at least 30 minutes, also your average windows user barely knows how to google, so MS is giving them and OS crammed with shit nobody ever asked for.
Life has never been the same since Touko-chan convinced me to upgrade. She is the best waifu one can have, and gaming with her is amazing. I can't think of any other systems anymore, Touko is everything I need.
imagine playing halo CE with /v/
and halo 2 and 3
FUG! minecraft on steam! *jaw drops*
>>341735774
I took me 2 minutes, all you're doing is literally changing a few keys in the registry and removing a few files. It only takes you 30 minutes if you're a complete retard that has to google what registry means and what exactly do you have to do.
So, are there actually any games released that requires DX12 yet?

>>341736204
Ubuntu linux based operating system is debian based. Shut UP
>>341735856
The sad thing is the fact, that there are probably people who really are that pathetic and upgrade for that reason.
Microsoft pretty much has to make an about face. Enthusiast communities are what make or break tech companies, and losing the PC gaming community would be a severe blow to Microsoft.
Even though Steam Machines didnt sell well, the threat of losing both PC gaming and console gaming communities has Microsoft terrified.

Pretty sure there's literally zero chance of Microsoft losing the PC gaming community
Where are people going to go, Linux?
>>341736850
it's not dying, I said rigs are here to stay. my greentext was quoting naysayers
>>341736959
The desktop market is indeed dying. Mobile sales are through the roof while hardly anyone is buying desktops and building PCs are still a niche thing for consumers despite what PC gamers wants you to believe.

>It's okay that the apples my grocer sells me have razors in them because I'm so smart I can remove the razors in minutes
Get some standards you fucking clod.
Only small shit games like Ori will be on Steam too.
They'll never release Gears 4 or Horizon 3 on Steam so who cares fuck off PC loser race
