It's a new computer so it wasn't the end of the world, just a few hours wasted, but it's still a really obnoxious thing to do to try to force people to update to the newest OS for a game that, according to its own minimum requirements, will run on Windows 7.

Super cheesy stuff from Microsoft. Fitting right in with most of the big publishers in that regard.

It's not the game that needs it, it's the Xbox Windows app that does, and they rebuilt that app when they launched the PC GamePass service so it makes sense that it needs the latest version of Win 10
