      PC, But with the @EpicGames and @TimSweeneyEpic;s BS I'm legitimately thinking of jumping ship back to PS4.

      One company doesn't mean that the PC is automatically bad, that doesn't make any sense. It's just that company is bad. What your saying makes as much sense as if I said that I would no longer use my switch because EA makes games for it.

      What I mean is that if Epic is going to strongarm players into using an inferior service through their exclusivity deals while the console market remains uneffected then why bother going with PC when I can get a game at launch on console and not have to deal with it at all?

      Take Borderlands 3 for ecample, why should I be punished just because I prefer Steam over Epic by having to wait half a year for the game to come out on my desired platform when I could just as easily get it on day 1 for PS4 or XboxOne?

      It’s similar for Apex Legends, Fortnite, and Overwatch on PC. To install the game you install the launcher that distributes the game, which is a free download.

          Thing you're missing there is that those are first party titles, not third party tittles. So I'll believe it when/if that blows up in your face as well.

          There’s no essential difference between a large company making its games exclusive to its store, or a group of companies working together to make their games exclusive to a store. In each case, everyone is pursuing the essential economic interest of avoiding the 30% store tax.

          Except those are all first party titles. You’re forcing people into using your service rather than letting your service entice new users on its own merits. You start buying these studios flat out and you’ll be fully justified to do business as they do.

          But those games were made by the company in question, you qre either ignoring that point, or incapable of reasoning

          It absolutely is completely different and you know that. Apex, fortnite and Overwatch are all exclusively distributed on the launcher of the company that owns it. - overwatch is only on battlenet, the Activision blizzard launcher. - fortnite is only on the EG launcher 1/x

          Apex is on the origin launcher. All three of these games you listed are first party titles that are being distributed on the launcher of the in-house publisher for each company. None of these are third party titles. You can't Dodge this question that easily. It's obvious 2/x
