The number of hours I've put into this game over the past couple of years... Its not even funny... I live on creative mode. and if MS thinks they can ruin that with sabotage to steam then I will not be a happy bunny.

It seems Microsoft hasn't learned their lesson, yet. You can't force consumer choice and expect everyone to go along with it. I'll switch to Linux before I give up Steam.
Excuse me, but how special are you exactly?! Its a rhetoricSteam is the best buying games worlwide! I cant live my life without steam! steam is my family too. whenever steam will break in future I wil going to die an old lady, warm in my bed. Not here...Not this night. Do you understand me? MICROSOFT? I repeat do you UNDERSTAND ME MICROSOFT?
ROFL, Win32 is a general name for the low level Windows API, nothing to do with 32 vs 64 bit applications.It's not just steam games, it's every game out there that doesn't support 64 bits, which is a huge number, and even then, there are x32 applications that don't have or need x64 support, please don't fall for this crap.
I wish that SteamOS or another distro would become the single Linux standard. We need *one* Linux that's as user-friendly and optimized for performance as possible. Ideally no one company would own this distro and a democratic process would be used to determine how the OS would evolve. Nobody would be allowed to make money off the operating system itself and walled gardens and other "framing" schemes would be immediately rejected. Note that I don't consider Steam to be a closed system because you can run nearly any of their games directly without even having Steam in memory.
Which was first the chicken or the egg?This kind f mentality is exactly what is holding Linux back. Without a way to profit no company will ever give Linux the support it needs to take on Windows.
What if it was just $10? Would that really be so bad to pay $10 instead of $100?
The risk here is that, if Microsoft convinces everybody to use UWP, then they phase out Win32 apps.

Yeah, that's a huge ask, and not something they're going to do. They tried something similar with Windows RT. Guess what? Noone made anything. It won't happen, they're not dumb enough to kill off every piece of software ever just to get people to use their store.
First the make you run the trouble shooter to make windows 7 updates work to persuade us to upgrade to 10 now this...
Pretty sure Linux dominates the server and mobile market.This kind f mentality is exactly what is holding Linux back. Without a way to profit no company will ever give Linux the support it needs to take on Windows.

We are talking about consumer and gaming here. Thank you.Pretty sure Linux dominates the server and mobile market.
