      So yeah sure competition benefited consumers in the US but was an active detriment to the rest of the world where Epic's prices are worse. Hell people in China can't even buy it now because there's no epic store. Do you see the problem now?

      How is Epic not also an oversized, rent seeking middleman? If you remotely cared about middlemen you'd buy all your games on Humble and http://itch.io .

      And you realise you are literally saying "I don't care if 70%+ of PC users get worse prices as long as publishers get more money"?

      It's alright every non-US PC gamer you just have to take the shaft and be happy with it because somehow some way this will benefit you.

      Also add in all the Linux users as well since Epic does not support them like Steam does but again this will all come back in a good way somehow for those people.

      How long is the long run, because many people are being shafted by Epic now? Also I think you are underestimating how greedy publishers are since odds are most of that extra money wont go to devs but will be pocketed by publishers.

      I don’t know the details of all of the developer-publisher relationships involved in our store, but the ones I know of are royalty-based, so any gains are split between dev and pub according to an agreed formula.

          I know your retail relationship with the customer, you know the ones who have given you all this money is pure garbage. Rest assured of that. Gaming on PC was exponentially better before that glorified bodega of a launcher invaded this industry

          Do you pay publishers back for the piracy you cause to their games or is that included in the money you pay for the exclusivity to begin with?
