Nothing more disappointing to me than seeing a game I might enjoy… and then it’s only available on PC on Epic Games store. Why can’t it be available on Epic, Xbox game store and Steam? It’s so annoying, like you have no choice but to use Epic… which I would literally do ANYTHING not to use.

    Is a better launcher really worth 18% of the gross value of a game?

    If a developer decided to cut 20% of their content, and their excuse was “we want to use that budget towards a better third-party game launcher instead of using it to develop the game” would you be okay with that?

    Because that’s what you’re suggesting they do by choosing Steam over EGS.

      Consumers are going to use the platform better for consumers. I’m not going to purchase a shitty car because the company pays its workers more.
