PC gaming has never been as exciting as it is today. The community welcomes every effort from the best in the industry to provide us with the best games, content and experiences. Microsoft's is a long-standing pillar in the PC world and we would truly hate to see it lose its shine.



Please consider releasing the upcoming game Quantum Break on Steam as well, in addition to the Windows Store. We feel PC gaming should not be limited to just a single choice and we feel PC gaming deserves the care and dedication to ensure PC gamers get the best possible experience.



By limiting Quantum Break to be released only in the Windows Store, we fear we will not fully benefit from our platform of choice for gaming. As demonstrated by another game, the Rise of the Tomb Raider, developers working closely with Microsoft can make beautiful things happen. But even then, the Steam version of said game is far superior to the Windows Store version and the PC gaming community feels Quantum Break deserves better than just a Windows Store version.



We believe in non-intrusive DRM (if any at all), modding, and support for high end features for those who demand the best of the best. Simply put, we believe in choice. If we're limited to the Windows Store to buy Quantum Break, we forego support for NVIDIA SLI / AMD CrossFire, SweetFX and other customizations, as well as the option to control the desired video mode (fullscreen, Vsync).



It is unfortunate that current Windows Store exclusive games such as Fable Legends (BETA) and Minecraft Windows 10 Edition exhibit these same limitations. Simply put, this is not what PC gaming is about. We made the choice to play on PC because we value our freedom of choice in all that makes the PC experience what we want it to be.



PC gaming is not about Steam either and the community realizes that competition is important to uphold the core values we swear by as PC gamers. For better or worse, Steam has proven its worth as a medium for PC gaming, which high profile developers and publishers have chosen as the de facto storefront for PC games. Remedy Entertainment, the developer behind Quantum Break, have themselves chosen Steam previously with the release of Alan Wake on Steam and all its related content.



We hope this issue is not overlooked as we highly anticipate the release of Quantum Break on PC soon. Thank you.
