      Epic shipped at least one major PC game in every engine generation, including Unreal Tournament 3 on PC the year after we released Gears of War on Xbox.

      This version of Windows intended to block users from accessing all competing stores. The Epic Games store coexists side-by-side with all other stores like GOG, Steam, Origin, etc.

      We,the community, are not as stupid as you think we are. We do know exactly what you are attempting to do. You do not wish to co-exist with other stores. You want to completely crush steam and every other store you can so Epic can take their place.

      This. We're not as thick headed as you'd like to think we are Tim. We know you left PC in a salty manner, and that you now want to come back, to entirely own the platform and have it be your hoe. Well it ain't going to happen, because we'll fight you to make sure it doesn't.

      Is 12% enough to make a profit? I'm just asking before investing in this store.

      Yes, 12% is a sustainable store fee. Our operating costs are typically 5-7%. We’re in this for the long-term, and 88% is the permanent developer revenue-sharing rate.

          If by sustainable you mean creating one of the most unsafe stores in the market, you still havent addressed the thousands of monthly reports of accounts getting hacked since last year.

          12% is too high for a store that doesn't even have a shopping cart. We demand you to go even lower to max 5% or we will take every game hostage exclusively.

          Epic adds a payment processing fee to the high-overhead international payment methods marked with asterisks in the hyperlinked chart above because it’s the only practicable way to operate a 12% fee store in those developing countries. Why Valve takes 30% everywhere I do not know.

          Also I find it weird how you lied and said prices would be lower because of Epic. When Borderlands 3 didn’t get a price reduction and on top of that this happened.https://www.gamepressure.com/newsroom/anno-1800-and-the-division-2-prices-rising-without-steam/zca74 …

          And this is no surprise at all. It is more expensive for me in Asia for any game not on steam because most use USA or UK pricing here except steam. And UBI games are now will not be bought by me because Epic and Uplay charges USA prices.
