On Thursday, Microsoft sent out a survey to Windows Insider members with a subject line that caught our attention: "Tell us what's important to you as a PC gamer." The survey's introduction states "We aim to build the best Windows yet for gaming, so we’re reaching out to understand what’s important to you in PC gaming.  Your opinions are very important to us, and we appreciate your help."\

If you're passionate about PC gaming—especially about issues like modding—we'd encourage you to take the survey, too.

When he's not obsessively optimizing and re-optimizing a tangle of conveyor belts in Satisfactory (it's really becoming a problem), he's probably playing a 20-year-old Final Fantasy or some opaque ASCII roguelike. With a focus on writing and editing features, he seeks out personal stories and in-depth histories from the corners of PC gaming and its niche communities. 50% pizza by volume (deep dish, to be specific).
