i see what you mean, i had the same feelings when i moved to W10 i merely did it because i wanted the newest direct x drivers so future games run well on me. i hated almost everything about the new interface, but now after sometime i think i got it configured in a way which iam happy with...
about the compatibility... its not nearly as bad as people describe, i got W10 for queit sometime and the only games which didnt run on me were Ground Control II: Operation Exodus, Commandos 2 - Men of Courage and Command & Conquer: Generals. so its not as bad as you think it is, i suggest everyone: stay on the system you like until youre getting problems with drivers
you shouldnt start posting facts when youre assuming things, i play showdown ctf and other fun gamemodes everyday with other players, i havent been in the forge mode once yet...
