That is part of the reason why i have never purchased it. Financially, selling Gamepass does not make sense, as the prices does not justify the buy-in to get a substantial amount of Games onto it, making it worthwhile. For Microsoft it only makes Sense, when they see additional Profitpoints Like the closed Market on it and Killing competition. Once that is done, the quality and amount of Games going to Gamepass will certainly worsen.

And we do Not need to forget that Microsoft is a Data Company. So by requiring the Gamepass service be installed onto your machine, they certainly get a load of Data about you from it. Which neither benefits the Game developers nor the consumers.

As for the Points of “Low barrier to entry, Games trying Out Games” - duh, thats what Demos are for

Also surprised about that. I use Nobara and that too is based Off Fedora.

Use BOINC! Support scientific advancement

The climbing mechanic was a unique to that time, added with the openworlsd and survivability setup. Sure, other Games Had that before too, but could Not capitalize in IT the Same way, BotW did.

Yeah no, Windows 11 IS far worse than (current) Windows 10

I have been playing it for a while now in Steamdeck. If you are a Tolkien Fan, then it Sure is great, otherwise there definitely are better survival Games Out there. The suspense created by the cave structures and pacing of the changing biomes, where you rly have to Work a significant amount of time to get to the next biomes, combined with the Story sprinkled in between, is a great Combination.

Yeah, pretty much that. Just because those Staates have banned it in administrative formal writing, this is in no Case a generalization for Germany. Just “Freistaat” doing their Thing as opposed to the other.

Also as a Note, that “Verein” has in no Case any inflouence over the course of education, as that is governed* by the “Gesellschaft” as mentioned.
