Window 10 only should be considered as a downpoint no? if so then why were my edits deleted the first time? you mean to tell me that limiting a game to a specific OS is not a downpoint?

Games have requirements and those requirements can have certain OS version and end user should look up those requirements themselves before purcharing stuff. Wiki does not count game requiring Vista or 8 as negative either.

Wiki does however list if the game requires some specific DRM under availability. This game has to be downloaded trough Windows Store, so that can be noted under availability. I'll make this change to article now.

I thought wikis were supposed to be informative as possible but okay, I won't argue.

They are. You can see Windows 10 being mentioned on system requirements and you can see that the game is only available trough Windows Store. Go to games wikipedia page and you don't see much about that either and infobox simply mentions "microsoft windows" as platform.

Thing is, they also need to be as objective as possible and not redundant. Windows 10 as negative keypoint is subjective matter and 10 as requirement belongs to system requirements and availability section. It's pretty similar to why the articles do not have negative keypoint for games that do not work with windows XP or that if game requires Steam to run. Even if those are generally more used and accepted programs, they are still subjective opinions. There are people avoiding steam and hate XP.

But this is all my view to the matter and I can see why some would think it as negative, because only limiting factors from game from working on earlier windows versions are xbox and windows store integrations, but even with those game should work under windows 8 at least. But it's good that you opened talk page so others can input on the matter if they feel the same way.
