I don't know if I'd say if pc games work as flawlessly as you suggest, but yeah usually if there is a problem it's a poorly written game or a poorly implemented software integration meant to achieve goals that a CEO dreamed up.

But yeah it's been years since I had too many issues like that. The only one that comes to mind was a failed update in MS flight simulator prevented me from playing the game at all, until I found an obscure cache directory hidden somewhere and deleted it then downloaded 100 GB of updates again...

Microsoft is notorious for writing shitty software and this was 100% a case of their weird decisions for the game update sustem

1. Keep it civil.

2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.


I should not need to explain this one.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
