That's the thing. I believe we should have the freedom to choose. Even with the way the revenue structures are we all agree those need to change. If Epic wanted to be at the forefront and make that a big message I would be celebrating that. As long as they did it in their lane

What’s the essence of this principle? For example, if the Epic Games store were rebuilt as a unified launcher for many companies’ games, with a separate storefront tab for each company - a Gearbox storefront, an Epic storefront, etc - would exclusives then be okay?

You've gone so far to even state you don't care what we think or what we want. You neglect none of this would even exist if no one bought your stuff. It's blatant disregard. Haven't even paid lip service to basic economics. It's what you want. We are the ones paying you.

The bottom of it is, if you pay a publisher to be exclusive it's wrong. If the publisher just agreed to "work together" that's fine. They are agreeing to your payment. I will repeat if you did not pay them it would be fine. 1/2

In the case of EA they own the studios so effectivly the studios are agreeing to be exclusive without being paid just for that. If epic owned 2k/gearbox it'd be better but for the record I wish orgin games were not exclusive. But they aren't buying off 3rd parties to be exclusive

He knows. He knows better. I mean if they're doing this tournament coming up and EA and Respawn hypothetically right before the event buy up all the servers for Apex to do their own event leaving them ass out he'd be a bit miffed about it.

If those companies come to you, use your platform and sell through you there is no problem. But this is the ideal situation. As it's been practiced your concept has already failed because Obsidian, 4A and now Gearbox all have regretted how this has been implemented

You've talked about developers. I am a game designer. I'm supposed to be one of these people you are supposedly helping and I don't even want this. I buy games too. I play games too. This is wrong
