Dark Souls GFWL Petition

Following today's announcement of the Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition for Windows, which was supported by a petition, a new petition is now online to protest the plan to use Games for Windows LIVE (thanks Reddit). Here's word:
GFWL is unpopular, difficult to use, inconvenient, has terrible online support (a key feature in Dark Souls), and is downright unpleasant. After anxiously awaiting a PC release for this fantastic game it feels like a real slap in the face hearing Dark Souls will use Games for Windows Live. We recommend Valve's Steamworks in place, as this DRM is much easier to use, less intrusive, more reliable, and more accepted among PC gamers. Please reconsider the use of GFWL, or offer the game on both services. Thank you for taking the effort to port this game, but for a lot of customers it's Steam or no sale.

GFWL doesn't remember serial keys, makes backing up saved games a nightmare, takes ages to login and I've had several games end up with corrupted saves (GTA4, Batman:AA). It doesn't even save game progress to the cloud. And whenever it needs to update itself it takes ages, before kicking you out of the game to restart. Thanks. If offers no advantages to me, only disadvantages.

Steam on the otherhand has been great. It's far from perfect but at least it offers some genuine benefits to the end user.
