When I'm browsing, it's my first stop. I want to see the minimum specs to estimate how well it'll run, how the devs market their game at a glance, year of release, rating, etc. Then if it looks interesting it's time for external reviews.
Not only that, but they made the platform ever so slightly less open when they bought a bunch of games just so that they could remove them from other stores. They garner hatred because they don't try to gain a competitive edge by being good or unique in some way, they're just making gamers who aren't willing to download their launcher suffer.
I don't know if this was the intention, but that came off a bit condescending in my opinion. I completely agree with you, present tense would have been more apt (I'm going to edit it to fix it), but I resent the way your correction was presented. If that was not your intention, I apologize. I'm tired this morning.
Idk friends, I'm tired. Person who replies, please give me something cool.
