Comment on Xbox Player Voice Quickly Reveals What Players Want Most

Why would anyone care what hardware another player is using?
In 2026, Xbox makes way more sense as a games marketplace / publishing platform. I’d love to see the console aspect evolve to something like the Steam Machine, shipping with Microsoft’s software out of the box but with the openness / flexibility to install other OSes if the user so chooses.

I know I shouldn’t be saying this, but I’d much rather just everyone publish their shit on steam lol.
At least so far, its my favourite storefront, mostly because they’ve never fucked me over, and it just works, and their hardware is awesome, and they value repairability, customization, and compatibility. No sub needed to play online. And so on.
Yes yes, they’re still a big evil corp, but the least evil IMO and give me what I want. No nonsense, just play games. On whatever you want. With whatever controller you want. On basically any OS you want.
I once used an Xbox one and the UI made me want to vomit. Its basically ads everywhere. On a standard computer with steam, you can pretty much play anything that was ever released on LC since forever ago. You don’t need to worry as much about newer hardware changing things and making your old games stop working.
