I agree with most of your points. Just wanted to point out that for MS games Linux compatibility is not planned. Not saying that other studios are supporting Linux, very few are but I wanted say that MS is Windows friendly not PC friendly.
That’s totally fair. I’m not sure where MS’ steam games fall on “working with linux” via Proton. I haven’t heard them being actively hostile like Bungie is with Destiny, but I’m not sure where that’s at.
I think being hostile might cause anti-trust issues. I am not knowledgable enough about it though.
The only MS game I play (AOE2DE) requires an additional script to be run before running the game so I can play multiplayer and don’t get kicked out.
