Not having lots of SKUs and a user-managed OS is kinda what the console experience is about.
I dunno what a “user managed OS” means. There’s no reason MS couldn’t port the exact same experience, considering current and past XBOXes are both built on x86.
As far as SKUs, I agree, but that’s only part of the console experience. The rest of it is a controller-first interface and streamlined processing. The various SKUs is also what attracts so many people to PC gaming, and in case you haven’t noticed, it is an incredibly quickly-growing segment.
those that do would probably prefer SetamOS…or something else that isn’t affiliated with Microsoft.
For whatever reason, millions of people obviously still prefer XBOX, in addition to or in place of, PC, Sony, Nintendo, etc. All this does is give those people more options.
or PopOS
PopOS does not deliver the console experience that I’m referring to.
