Valid complaints but I'm pretty some of those issues are being addressed, some may already have. Its getting better, not worse.

The WIndows Store would certainly be more interesting if they simply ported over some of their existing PC games to Windows Store. Also the easiest way to win over some fans.

Giving away games for free goes a long way too. It worked for EA and Origin.
I wouldn't even care if you required a gold subscription to grab the free games on PC.

Heck, makes you wonder why they don't do the same on mobile too?

It's a good way to build a player base.

As for UWP getting better not worst... Same could have been said for Games for Windows Live! Over it's life time.
And yet... Look where we are today. - Microsoft just isn't getting the support and nor should they untill their have a competent platform, Ubisoft also gets the same criticism with uPlay... And so they should.

The biggest problem with GFWL is support didn't last. Perhaps GFWL should have evolved into Windows Store as opposed to just going away.

It looks like MS is going to be more serious with its Windows Store support. Also, its not just a marketplace for games and its pushing Windows 10.
