I'm quite relaxed. If you talked to me in person you'll actually find my way of typing and vocal talks are very different from one another.

Gaming as a service isn't really ideal for everyone though, please do take note of that.

Imo gaming needs to be where movies and music are. You see a game, just pop it or download it and play it on the device you have. It's not a lesser game because of it being multi. No need to brag about how your device of choice sells more than the other and devs would have the biggest user base possible. Enough with the single platform development... then wars would be between games instead of consoles. 

I was talking more of actually having the game rather than simply "streaming it" as means of a "service", akin to renting a game but not owning it's files, something which MS won't even allow you to actually touch let alone modify with the current state and allowance the Win10 store show. In fact that's actually more the talk of this whole QB news, it's not just the fact that it;s coming to PC that's breaking some dreams of exclusivity folk but more or less the actual decision to throw it onto a store which isn't anywhere near popular. Looking at this from an open platform pov, this isn't really all that great, sure it's great that it's coming to PC but it's not great that it's a game locked to a single OS to a single store with no sort of freedom to how you can play the game besides doing what you're told. That's not what the platform is about and that's what will eventually be a trouble for MS to tackle and one they will have to admit fault with on their behalf if they want to move on past the old model and into the new one.

I don't actually care where a game goes, but I know for a fact that boasting numbers is a fools game with a platform that has existed since computers could create and play games as a platform that is created within a closed wall dies, so does it's sales, we talk about the Wii sales as a reference point but in another 10 maybe 50 more years something else will surpass that, maybe even the PC but it will be from a platform that has no lifespan, no definited lifespan with no set time limit. The only time I'll care where a game goes is when the original is in the middle of production and tampered with the design of the original's destination, ie: a game that's made for PC utilizing PC peripherals or design is confined to the restraints of a gamepad one in terms of how the game is played along with UI and eventual downgrades to a specific set of low end hardware. That will be the only time and situation where I'll care because I seek the original design, how the game was first shown and marketed, if it's design is changed to conform to another system that isn't open, well then I just won't buy or support their decision but I digress as this doesn't have to do with PC to Xbox.

This of course coming from someone who's as cool as a cucumber.
