I kinda agree it seems that way. I dont know Tim but whats going on with pc platform isnt good, its really stirring a lot of shit up. I expect it to get more locked down content wars.

Just pull back on the paying for exclusivity, let the store stand on its 88-12 revenue split, offer cheaper prices, get your feature put in asap, keep with the free games and one better, offer free games on the purchase of the franchises (BL3 gets you BL1 2 and Pre Sequel)

We considered that approach. We concluded it would be a noble way to build another store with 2% marketshare that has no lasting effect on 70/30 economics. We concluded that success requires handing together with others to foster a new store with exclusives.

I feel as if this doesn't even matter. We're here talking to the boss at Epic and it feels as though we're just spinning our wheels. If you can't or simply won't do anything on our behalf as your customers then what's the point? We letting you know this is bad. And it is futile

At least we are getting to a thorough understanding of the reasons for the choices each of us are making on how to operate a store, whether to use or boycott a store, etc. I wish I could grill other companies this way!

Actually, I'm done reading. To sad. But I'll break it down like this. This plan reads like a couple of bankers and lawyers wrote it up. It used to be gamers and devs were one and the same but now we lost that advocacy we felt we had, and it sucks.

One thing Sterling says amidst all the crap. These companies are not your friends. I mean seriously, you think Tim Sweeney cares what we think? He still won't mention 2K. The same 2K behind most these deals who had a bad last year so they're making up for it now. It's a racket.

I actually understand completely why epic would do this. It works out great for you. Steam can't compete with any game built with UE4. But from a consumers perspective it's just continuing the shift away from us and to the standard we see in every other part the economy. $>all
