    Microsoft Play Anywhere games support is getting worse instead of better


    The first steps for the Microsoft Store weren't the best but it seemed to be improving. In the last months it's just the opposite. I have installed Gears of War 4, Sea of Thieves, Forza Horizon 3 and Forza Horizon 4 and the first one is the only one I didn't
    have had to reinstall because it just didn't work or stopped working anymore.

    • Forza Horizon 3 was driving me nuts because for some time it was constantly loosing the graphics settings but some glorious day the issue disappeared, more than a year after the release of the game.
    • Sea of Thieves hasn't one think that Forza Horizon 3 have: Support for Nvidia's Dynamic Super Resolution. I can run Forza Horizon 3 in a resolution around 1600p at Ultra over 60FPS but I just haven't the choice to run Sea of Thieves over my monitor's resolution,
      1080p, which is a really bad limitation when trying to increase the image quality.
    • I have reinstalled Forza Horizon 4 and it still doesn't work. Just installed the first time worked but the game asked for a restart when changing the graphics settings and it wouldn't start until the next day. Then I changed the graphics settings again,
      asked for a restart and again, the same issue, not even restarting solved it, and it isn't a specific setting issue as I changed different things. Anyways this game neither allow me to use DSR which is pretty ridiculous to me being Horizon 3 completely compatible
      with this.

    I have a Xbox One X, and my PC is even more powerful than it (GTX 1070 in there), I use both platforms as I bought many games in the Xbox One before getting my PC and even with games available in PC the Xbox is more comfortable to me to make parties with
    friends which only play in the Xbox. But I prefer to play certain games in PC, I did with Forza Horizon 3 because of the resolution and FPS combination was a better middle ground to me, I did with Gears of War 4 to play the campaign over 60FPS, I still prefer
    to do it with Sea of Thieves as being unable to use DSR isn't worse than the weirdly frame-pacing of the 30FPS of my One X, and I would prefer to do it with Forza Horizon 4, but I just find myself almost uncapable, and I say almost as I just won't reinstall
    it a third time and keep lowering the lifespan of my SSD (this is another reason for playing in my PC to Sea of Thieves and Forzas: The much shorter loading screens).

    Please, it just can't be that hard to make games work properly.
