    The quality of those games is irrelevant. The user asked why people still use Windows and I gave a few examples. Simple as that.

    You are arguing for the sake of it.

      No, they’re saying you are making a mountain of molehill and using it as justification. You are saying you are technically correct, the best kind of correct.

      Now you two feel free to proceed, I have my popcorn.

      You gave examples, but they were incorrect and invalid examples. As I already corrected you, you’re parroting a myth because games do run on Linux. In fact, games run better and faster on linux than windows
