I am running it on 3 different gaming devices and have had zero issues with it, and I have it installed on my partner's gaming PC and he also has not had any issues with it.
also a "decade" I am not sure is true, the current version is 11 2024. Before that was 2021, 2019, 2016, 2015.
That being said, I would be very curious what games actually break.
I had to upgrade to the newer LTSC once
in 10 years
There lies the problem with LTSC though: there are always a couple of things really pushing the bleeding edge of features (like a community VR plugin in 2022 would be) and it might take a year or two for LTSC to catch up to those cases. Most people will never run into that... but you can't really know until you do, so is it worth it? Depends, I suppose.
