Total Annihilation is so difficult to run on any semi-modern Windows system, and it’s not even that old… right? (Cries in 1996).
On the other hand you can still play it using modern actively-maintained engines.
But yeah I’m not sure how to evaluate this criticism of maintaining compatibility with unmaintained software, because I know that Windows prioritizes backwards compatibility a lot, but I thought Linux also famously did (don’t break userspace; any bug that people depend on is a feature, etc).
If there’s anyone that truly loses here it’s apple and Mac.
