      So @TimSweeneyEpic... Are exclusives ok now if they benefit you? https://www.pcgamer.com/epic-ceo-tim-sweeney-pummels-microsofts-uwp-initiative/ … Or are you going to keep pretending you were talking about something different?

      There I am criticizing Microsoft “curtailing users’ freedom to install full-featured PC software, and subverting the rights of developers and publishers to maintain a direct relationship with their customers”, not exclusives.

      The whole thesis here is that stores should be free to compete, and gamers and developers should be free to use stores of their choosing, which is exactly what is happening here today.

          I wanted to buy Metro Exodus on steam, which it was advertised to be released on. However someone didn't want me to, which must mean it was the developer, who got paid by you to do it. Which must mean you didn't want me to buy it where I wanted to. Which means you are a liar.

          This is the result of stores competing for developers. Despite an early lead and being the presumed winner, Valve ultimately lost the competition for Metro Exodus, because they offered the developer a worse deal than Epic.

          So where our option to buy it on steam? Where is it? Where is my choice?

          Is there a consumer right to buy any product in any store of your choosing? Do we have the right to buy a Toyota at a Ford dealer? A Whopper at McDonalds? No; stores compete on selection as well as price and features.

          No, what happens here is that you want to "unite" the users, but you are creating more division still. you are unfair competition and unfair competition stinks.

          So if I can choose the store, I can buy metro the day of its launch, no? Oh wait, if you have an exclusivity of one year. How do you eat what you preach?

          "developers should be free to use stores of their choosing" So...what about bribing developers to not release their games in specific stores, like what your company is doing?

          Epic games is anti-consumer.

          How can a user use the store of their own choosing if you locked a game down that you know people want to play to your own store? You are seriously just taking the piss out of us...
