If you want every game to work then you would be better off with a game console. I've had plenty of bullshit fighting with DLL files and registry keys to get games working on Windows in the past. Maybe it's gotten better since Windows 7, which is the last time I seriously did any Windows gaming, but I doubt it.
For some reason amongst other people, these bits of debugging just "don't count". I don't know why.

I have a console. They can not offer performance I can tolerate. I require 120+ fps for most titles in order to not get motion sickness from modern displays.

I've had no such fighting. Shit, the last time I touched a registry to "fix" anything in windows was probably XP.

Probably because not everyone has the same experience. None of the major operating systems is free of issue, but in the same vein, neither have caused me particularly more headaches than another.
