[Insignia-Pro]

Hey everyone, are you planning to get Rise of the Tomb Raider thru Steam or the Windows Store? What's the reason for your choice?

Steam, I'm simply not yet comfortable with buying full AAA games on microsoft marketpace... Also I have some games in my steam account and I like to have everything in one place.

I also use Steam but I read there were additional features if you bought it thru the Windows Store, so now I'm wondering which one to get it from.

I've just purchased from the Windows Store. There's a couple of niggles with it though. For one you cannot disable V-Sync, Nvidia Geforce Experience doesn't recognise it and ShadowPlay doesn't work with it. I can understand the GeForce stuff not working, but the V-Sync is a bit of a bummer since I have GeForce monitors.

On the plus side though, When running multiple monitors, you can pause the game and do something on another monitor without it flicking into windowed mode or having to Alt-Tab out.

I got it from Steam.
1) I like having my games in one place.
2) Steam has never let me down.
3) Integrity file check, to see if you have a corrupted file.
4) Ability to stream the game to my laptop
