      Absolutely. Forums are great resources for gamers and developers. Epic’s all for this means of expression; we just don’t think it’s helpful for us to operate centralized Epic Games store forums, when PC is a many-store platform, and most games are multi-platform experiences.

      For example, we wouldn’t want to divide a multi-store PC game’s community by store, or divide a multi-platform PC exclusive’s community by platform. The community for a game should stay together, regardless of where people bought it.

      The wrinkle is that Steam bundles a community ecosystem together with a storefront and 30% tax. So Epic’s robust competition for developers and publishers with 12% and exclusives can be misread as an attack on the Steam community, though we’re only contesting for the storefront.

      To see that we aren’t aiming to divide communities, just look at Fortnite and Dauntless (interoperable across 7 platforms, with an Epic store on only 2), and Epic Online Services, which support all platforms and storefronts, with no mantatory Epic Games store entanglement.

      Compare to Steam friends, for example. This social feature can only be used on PC/Mac, and only from games that are launched by the Steam client. These players are walled off from players on other stores and other platforms.

      For an Epic Games store game to support Steam friends, the user would need to manually add it to their Steam library, then launch the game from the Steam client. Whereas the Epic Online Services friends system supports all platforms and stores.

      You’ve changed the topic again! Re Steam friends importing, no data is or has ever been sent to Epic except after the user explicitly chooses to import Steam friends, and the data has always been limited to hashed friend ids.

      This thread was about Satisfactory. GOG Galaxy’s plans sound awesome and this sort of multi-ecosystem interoperability is something we’d love to be a part of in the future. We’ve done some bits of this BTW - you can log into Epic with Epic/Xbox/PSN/Nintendo accounts.

          correction this thread is about consumer choice and how they dont like it being taken away satisfactory sold 500K over a period of months where games on steam or gog have sold a over 2 million within the same period of time

          And there have been games on Steam and GoG that have sold less than @SatisfactoryAF in the same time frame.

          Yeah, within your eco-system, I'd like it if *you* linked with GoG's, without having to use your system within theirs. It'd be nice if you guys basically opted out of using your system and using theirs instead.
