I support everyone’s right to complain about tech industry stuff. Epic’s store, with exclusive games and a spartan feature set, is a fine target for ire. But please help separate facts and opinions from the lies about spyware and foreign control.https://www.usgamer.net/articles/the-epic-games-store-is-spyware-how-a-toxic-accusation-was-started-by-anti-chinese-sentiment …

Tencent is a Chinese company founded in 1998. CEO Pony Ma and the other co-founders played a lot of Unreal Tournament back then, and visited Epic in the early 2000’s. In 2012 Epic was looking to move to online games, and we invited Tencent in as an investor to help us.

I’ve never regretted it, and the recent anti-China rage doesn’t change that even slightly, as its completely unfounded. Epic has only had positive interactions with Tencent at all levels.

All of Epic’s big decisions are made here in the USA and as CEO I’m 100% responsible for them. I’m grateful for everyone who has spoken in support. I also read and respectfully consider all dissenting arguments of fact and principle. Just please keep it real.

Oh hello, a person who said PC is "dead" for games 10 years ago. How's your PC Gaming nowadays?

Would you like to explain the decisions to shut down Paragon and let UT stagnate, when Epic is pouring money at exclusives? If Tencent didn't decide to pour everything into Fortnite, who did and why? People like other games too.

These are Epic’s games and Epic’s decisions. Fortnite was growing faster than we had ever imagined, and it took all available resources to keep it running and move it forward across all platforms. The limiting factor then and now for Epic game development was people, not money.
