      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.

      that being said i doubt epic would get rid of there store if steam did a 12 percent rate as awesome as that and i dont think epic is doing this for the good of games in general but competition would be good for steam now and they might even do a 12 percent

      The Epic Games store will be a perpetual part of our business, and PC is just the beginning. We are also working to connect store ecosystems, for example by working to bilaterally support accounts and friends with Ubisoft and purchasing with Humble and others.

          There are many stages to this, and the store is just the PC and open platform launcher for a much larger set of online services that support all 8 of the industry’s major platforms and are engine and store agnostic.

          so this store is a prototype or a beta of sorts to test the faults and chances of succes before a full release on all platforms?

          How about just sell me the damn game on a thumb drive and let me play it without the fu*king store? I don't want ANY store on my PC. I just want the game. Sell me the game for double the price on a thumb drive with a key that's actually attached to my name (or to (C)

          the person I'm buying it for..)...if the key is used more than once, you charge my card again. if it's used 5+ times, ask what's going on and lock it down. I don't need another damn store ..I don't want ONE.
