      Epic is funding the cost of all Kickstarter refunds resulting from Shenmue III’s move to the Epic Games store, so that refunds won’t reduce Ys Net’s development funding.https://twitter.com/pcgamer/status/1146056622915162112 …

      EGS must die, and thats a fucking fact. Such garbage store cant be around! You just ruined shenmue, a 20 year waited game for most of the fans of the series. Not only that but a lot of other titles, just take your store and gtfo with your bs exclusivity deals

      How does this ruin Shenmue though? Because you have to click one icon to launch the game instead of another icon? And BTW that other icon has never launched any prior Shenmue game.

      Product is the same, store features are not a part of the product.

      Achievements, Cloud Saves and Trading Cards are all part of the Steamworks Suite for the Devs, it´s indeed part of the product.

      There’s another complicating factor: many of those features are tied to Steam and only work for games run through the Steam client, so no multi-store support (except through Steam key sales), no PC/console/mobile cross-platform support, etc.

      That’s using the developer’s cross-platform friend system rather than the Steam friends system, which only supports PC games launched by the Steam client.

          DOTA Underlords is using the Steam Friend System on Mobile and Portal 2 used the same system on PS3.

          It’s great that Valve lets its own games use Steam services on other platforms. Too bad they haven’t opened it up for third-party developers!

          I just dont get the point you are making with that, its not a steam's mission to cross-platform every game on earth and it still doesnt justify why your store lacks everything steam have

          It will make more sense by this time next year. The old model of stores and consoles is that they provide a big bundle of services but they’re all locked down to only work within their ecosystem. The new model is interoperability of games across stores and platforms.
