Microsoft is ALREADY relevant in PC gaming since every PC developer uses the DirectX standard so what do they have to fear about losing PC gamers ? 

Not making PC gamers buy an Xbox is just a lost opportunity for Microsoft in the end ... 

@Bold If Microsoft wants to win they need to lure gamers all around so why aren't they buying these publishers ? 

Xbox keeps looking unattractive and more so after what just happened recently. Phil Spencer's leadership or lack thereof will be what drives Xbox into irrelevancy ... 

Windows is an incredibly successful gaming platform, but MS's gaming support for it has always been half assed.

You misunderstood, the concern isn't developers will move away from Windows. PC gamers want to support MS to support Windows gaming better. Hence, they don't want Windows Store to be another GFW. Also, don't use Windows Store to tease some Xbox content.

They don't need to buy publishers, MS needs to make a store worth supporting. I don't blame Phil for that, his power is limited.

I don't speak for all PC Gamers, but I think most PC players just want to play their games. Rather than helping Microsoft make Windows more intrusive.
