It also doesn’t help that Microsoft’s previous bold vision of post-ownership consumer cloud buzzword something something was ‘Games for Windows Live’, a service so terrible that I don’t think I’ve ever seen even one fanboy defend it. (So bad that Microsoft took it out and shot it like PlaysforSure, sorry anybody who cared or relied on it, better get those cracks ready if you need to reinstall, and no, just because the servers are dead doesn’t mean the in-game nagscreens go away!)
That’s not a good glimpse of the future if you want to sell people on the cloud-managed diskless profile etc.
