Just as gamers don’t like surcharges for high-overhead payment methods, developers don’t like stores charging 30% when its operating costs are a small fraction of that. These aren’t separate issues; they’re the left and right side of the cost equation.

then why is it that we should take the shit road and not the PUBLISHERS? You're literally just claiming that we should take the hit while we let the publishers which take most of the money you already offer for exclusive deals roam free with even more money?

'Grow the fuck, the world doesn't revolve around the consumer' then I'll tell you: publishers don't have the world around them aswell. Minor inconveniences? Why don't publishers set up with the minor incovenience of having a little bit less money for us to win?

I have yet to see some developer getting anything relatively good from epic games. Publishers, yeah, but who the fuck would support publishers?

How would Dauntless cross-play work on Steam though? Steam accounts and friends only work on PC and only in games run by the Steam client. Where’s the SteamWorks SDK for Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch? Large pieces of this puzzle are missing.

How does Rocket League cross-play work on Steam? A miracle?

Right, Psyonix built their own multi-platform services. But if you own 100 games, you probably don’t want 100 accounts! Epic’s online services support accounts, friends, and other features across 7 platforms and are open to all PC stores. See:https://dev.epicgames.com/en-US/services

Why not? It's just another 100 free accounts and launchers? Crossplay makes only sense with online multiplayer games. Who is playing more than a couple of them regularly? And thx for the free promo-link, I'll not bite your clickbait. I'm personally not interested in crossplay!
