      I'll ask one thing, Tim. Can you at least understand why PC gamers (not just a vocal minority) are mad at your company? Buying timed exclusives while your launcher is still VERY MUCH unfinished is not a way to build a consumer base on your store. That's why Valve isn't responding

      Except you are a vocal minority. Most of us don't care that much about which launcher we need to click on. And if Steam could actually start charging a reasonable amount then and also get off their asses thanks to real competition then that'd be great.

      Get off their asses and change what? Other than revenue split, I cannot name one single thing the Epic launcher does better than Steam, but I can name DOZENS of things Steam blows Epic out of the water in. As I already said, this is not about clicking another launcher.

      The revenue split is very major. They could also start purging asset flips. Most "features" are useless fluff like trading cards. 1 single thing Epic does better? OK, it tells you what keys do before redeeming. Steam still doesn't. Minor, but more to me than trading cards.

      So features like cloud saves, user profiles, achievements, in home streaming, forums and a freaking shopping cart are useless fluff? I use all of those on the daily and hate the idea of giving them up.

      I honestly don't believe a word Tim Sweeney says. After the Metro Exodus debacle they said they'd never pull something like that again, and then they did it again days later with Outer Worlds and will do it again with Rocket League. Bunch of lying frauds.

      The fact that Tim said back in March that the Epic store was "nearly perfect for consumers already" just shows how out of touch he is. No wonder the Epic launcher is still a joke. Even the Microsoft store he hates so much blows it out of the water, and that's saying something.

      That’s not right. I said that, for consumers, digital stores in general were nearly perfect. The big problem with digital stores is for developers, where stores extract more than half of the profits (after developers pay all of their costs). Please read the full source article.

          The Epic store kinda disproved that then, cause it's outdated and barebones. Honestly if you guys did a big feature blowout like GOG Galaxy 2.0 with tons of consumer-focused features you'd stop getting most of the hate you get and more people would support your platform.

          But with the lack of choice where to buy the games. At this point, I'm happy Microsoft pulled out Outer Worlds from Epic Games to develop their own Xbox Store on PC. (Or Game Pass thingy...) And guess what? They sure have my money! 1 BRL now, AND 44 BRL EVERY MONTH! 2/2

          Except for (this applies to any online store, i'm not singling Epic out) security. The bare truth is that there are serious flaws in the way Epic handles account authentication which results in inconvenience (best case scenario) or outright fraud (worst case scenario) for users.

          Tim, you couldn't care less about developers, you don't even treat your own developers with respect, 100+ hours of crunch speaks volumes. All EGS is for you is a personal mission to take on Steam, if you had any respect for PC gaming or consumers you wouldn't be buying exclusives

          Entitled Developers don’t need more. The market was far better before your store came. Devs getting a higher cut will mean the store getting worse for consumers.
