Isn't good for Xbox One's Onwers, they supported the Console, and this harm their investiment, because Xbox One, will sell less with those moves.

That's my point... I'm a Xbox One owner and non-Xbox owner sees this as a "problem" for us while we are not (talking for the majority here I'm pretty sure)...
Not even bringing the "double" standard of people who also complained a while ago with the 360 about Microsoft getting some third party exclusives and how bad it was for the "consumers", those same people are just bashing Microsoft now for their Windows PC oppening...

And I support the system to play my games on my Xbox One and I do not see anything in what Microsoft is doing that is going to harm that in any way. Actually I see this as an extension to it to bring more people to their franchise and their ecosystem. All good for me.

I feel my investment is just getting better and better values when they are doing that. At some point I even hope for the next Xbox and PC to use the same thing (being a Steam box but with the Microsoft/Xbox Live ecosystem). Windows 10 or Xbox One, I'm not interrested in the "hardware" itself but the Microsoft ecosystem, extending that is just perfect :) I want my Halo games, my Microsoft account, etc. to be available on all my devices (Xbox One or not...).

This settles it, you are Interested in Microsoft's Products, and not  just in the Xbox One, for a Microsoft point of view this might be a good thing, but for Xbox's Point of view, this will harm the console, people purchase console waiting games for it, PS4, is getting a lot of exclusives only because of Companies's Own Will, like King of Fighters, Nier Automata, and other games exclusive for PS4, because those companies wanted this way, if Microsoft, cannot ensure that they will make their own games, so the World is Doomed, they are the ones who have the most money to do this,launching games for PC, will not make Microsoft, produce more games, will only bring them nearly the same money or even less, but this time without the necessity of Hardware.

This means less Third Party support for Xbox One, and only because the game will launch for PC, does not means that will came for Xbox, only because they use "Windows", is just a OS, the port of the game need to came from the Developers, and they will still need to make the port for the console, i don't see how this can benefit Xbox One's Owners, if is for more people in the Multiplayer Lobby, they already have enought, and  would grow more without exclusives coming for PC, this was the only positive thing i could think about the  Xbox One, and PC Integration.

 

And the biggest problem is that now all Microsoft's games will be made for 2 Plataform,  more Development work, and less optimization for the Xbox One, because will also need to make the PC Port.
