Why do people hate Microsoft also?

Guest
Go to solution Solved by Cavin8,

They pulled a nvidia on us (they skipped 9) and I will hate them forever for that. NDnIG2j.gif

I am used to the Apple hate, I dont like Apple either (the products are fine, but the company itself I mean) But we are all used to the hate Apple gets by now.

 

However lately I have seen more MS hate.

 

I admit, I am a fanboy of their Surface line, just a hardcore fanboy.

But  this hate is new to me.

 

I don't get it, MS does shitty things like every other company, but also do good things. (W10 lately)

Promising DX12 on Win7 and then later retracting that statement. Also DirectX has ruined Linux gaming

Pricing on the majority of their licensing.

Hatred for any company usually stems from uneducated opinions that surface when fanboys get bored.

Pun intended? :P

 

Yeah I guess, I mean the Surface line is amazing for work but people just don't know it.

Vista, Windows 8 for bandwagon hate, ruining Skype for legitimate hate. I've had instances where I actually questioned why Windows was doing something stupid, but for the most part many errors are user faults. What annoys me actually is how useless a bugcheck can be for some things and nothing is more frustrating than getting a generic error and Windows going lolIdunno. There is also their console line which is hit or mess. Nothing on consoles minus Nintendo exclusives make me care about what MS is doing on that end, but some people will complain for hours about that stuff.

 

On a side note, former CEO Bill Gates is one if the most stand up guys around and a worthy of respect for the large amounts he's donated to charity along with his wife.

OK, let's not jump to conclusions about Vista; it was a great operating system.

Windows is a vastly inferior operating system to OS X.

 

(IMO of course)

Drop the "Windows also" part of the question and then we can really get to the heart of the matter. (hushed awes of approval)

They have ruined so many games like Banjo Kazooie. Also Microsoft Live, loved that in GTA IV (Sarcasm). However without out them we wouldn't have Windows or DirectX.

The biggest bottleneck is the Aussie internet..

We always had Linux and OpenGL.

Because when they come out with something new. It is Their Way or the Highway!

Also any big company is gonna get some Hate just for being big.

 

2 Examples(more but I'm tired)

Win 8 Start button got removed I believe quite a few times as people kept bringing it back with registry hacks, and 3rd party programs. NOPE RIP OUT ALL LEGACY CODE.

Xbox One We must Have Online ONLY!   ... Uhmm why can't we have online No-Disk And Legacy Offline Play BOTH on the system?  

 

Did they ever think to give us a choice? Not until we flood with complaints.That is why I don't like Microsoft they Force Something on Millions of people, but only go back after we Complain. Example Windows 10 has Start Menu AND Start Screen so both sides can be happy. It took them 2 years to turn around.

 

I Actually like the Start Screen so it being there in Win10 is awesome. 

now I just need to try a few more things to try to get Win8.1 to run on my machine. (probably some little setting makin it fuss)

My Gaming Bio thingy?  Anyhow I love co-op gaming so add me.   :) Skype/Origin/Uplay/Steam/Other -> "GuestForeverX"

I'm going to stick out and defend him here only because he said "In my opinion".

Rule 1 of fanboys: they don't care about opinions, whatever they fan about is superior.
