      Regional pricing does not affect the Epic Games store’s 88/12 revenue share.

      Tim I know your current strategy is to go after exclusives to get a foothold in the PC gaming landscape but is there a scenario that would see you rethink this? There is so much bad will toward Epic right now, wouldn't it be better to grow a store on customer value and community?

      That’s a loaded question! But Epic will stay the course. 30% store dominance is the #1 problem for PC developers, publishers, and everyone who relies on those businesses for their livelihood. We’re determined to fix it and this is the one approach that will effect major change.

      If Steam committed to a permanent 88% revenue share for all developers and publishers without major strings attached, Epic would hastily organize a retreat from exclusives (while honoring our partner commitments) and consider putting our own games on Steam.

      Such a move would be a glorious moment in the history of PC gaming, and would have a sweeping impact on other platforms for generations to come. Then stores could go back to just being nice places to buy stuff, rather than the Game Developer IRS.

          There are solutions for all of the problems of high-overhead payment methods like retail cards. Epic’s approach is just one. Other stores could ask developers and publishers to agree to a rate chart with a variable revenue sharing rate per payment method.

          People please don't buy in to Tim's fake altruism. He is using the 12% nonsense as a guise to get good will so he can build a platform (with no features) that is anti consumer (you better like it) and at the end of the day it is all about the $$$$. Ask Tencent why they invested!

          Why is the "no features" argument even an issue? The platform is young. Wait a year and then tell me it has no features. Steam didn't start as a full blown distribution platform. It took years to get there! Apples to Oranges right now.

          Totally agree for this, I guess one way of giving devs more share revenue is making your employees to work 100 hours a week.

          Their current schemes are not working and now Epic is just looking for some imagined moral high ground so they can quit the field with a shred of honor. "Look at the good we did" End justifies the means to some people. They could have just been better instead of becoming thugs.
