Widows Store and Xbox Live cross play. Windows Store applications have many limitations.

Windows 10 store exclusive means it is built as a windows app which means:

- No SLI/Crossfire,

- Windows 10 store download is buggy,

- No refund policy explained,

- Vsync is always on,

- Always borderless fullscreen,

- Game files are protected,

- Can't launch it via the exe (So adding it as a non steam game will not work)

- No fps/hardware monitor software works with it,

- You need to take control of the folder as admin if you want access to the files

- Mouse software which lets you create custom binds for each game doesn't work

- Say bye to using sweetfx and mods

Before reading Leshma I immediately thought this is yet another attempt at getting people to switch to Windows 10 and use the store.
