I decided to try that Xbox Game Pass. The horror stories I heard about the windows store backend were true. I now have a 50mbps connection and can download at 5mb/s from Steam, Epic, Itchio. Windows store? Stuck after 30mb downloaded for 10 times. Restarted, nothing. UGH

You hate to see teething problems like that. Like you expect some hiccups in the beginning but scaling a backend to handle load is a problem Microsoft should be pretty good at these days. It probably won't make a difference in the long run but initial impressions can be huge.

haha as soon as I tweeted it was OK. But still yeah not a great impression especially if you compare with a small company like itchio who has one of the best backend of the industry. I'd expect a giant like MS to do much better! :D
