Why are you on board with this those other peons that don't use an 18% revenue split?

Is escaping the 30% Steam tax a privilege reserved only for games made by powerful corporations? What moral principle prohibits smaller developers and publishers from making deals to get funding and lower 12% store fees, or prohibits Epic from offering them?

How they go about avoiding the Valve Tax is the issue, not that they want to do it. They didn't make the game in a vacuum. They had a kickstarter, they made agreements as to what form the game would take. There's no limitation in place that would make the change acceptable.
-
The Kickstarter situation is unfortunate. Epic is always supportive of partners fulfilling crowdfunding and pre-order campaigns on stores where they were offered. However, our understanding is that Steam only provides keys for games that are actively sold on Steam.

You'd have a point, Tim, if your store/launcher wasn't released vastly unfinished and remained that way 8 months after launch, giving consumers a vastly worse experience for the same price. If you actively take away benefits from consumers, you better expect backlash.
-
I guarantee if your store launched with everything necessary, such as cloud saves, profiles, an overlay, achievements, controller support and a goddamn shopping cart, you would be getting a lot less backlash.

Let’s make it clear, you and your epic games store’s real target is definitely not saving pc game industry, but to eliminate steam, so that you can build your own pc game empire, and monopoly the whole pc market. Your ultimate goal is nothing but money.

You aren't "working together" to meet any goal, you're throwing money at publishers in an attempt to gain customers while blatantly not giving a single shit about the absurdly lowered QoL those customers experience.

I hope you realize that Steam has been around for a long time and you can continue stealing 1-2 games from them but in the end with the f2p games and some games people "CHOOSE" to put on steam they basically gain 40 games an hour.

Steam’s 30% is inferior to epic, yes, but epic exclusives really inferior to the whole pc game market.
