    This is such a shame. I play quite a few games through this that aren’t available on Windows, by enabling Google Play on the system. The Google Play Games thing that Microsoft / Google were working on doesn’t include anywhere near the number of apps I can get running via WSA. I really hope someone is able to bundle this up and release it as a standalone package once Microsoft drop support.
