      There are two separate sets of relationships here: Epic and Humble are integrating our purchasing systems so that Humble purchases are recognized on Epic. However, all deals to sell games or keys are between Humble and the game’s developer or publisher, without Epic involvement.

      Sorry if I was unclear. Green Man Gaming’s partnership is with 2K, not with Epic. In cases like this, Epic provides Epic Games store keys to our developer/publisher partners, and they make the keys available to their key distribution partners under terms they negotiate.

      Everyone would benefit from greater transparency on store fees. While all of Epic’s distribution partnerships are based on the same 88/12 split, many other stores negotiate revenue sharing terms with specific developers and publishers which differ from their advertised terms.

      And what about nontransparent exclusivity deals? Those are not part of Epic's distribution partnership?

      Epic works with all exclusive partners to announce their exclusivity at a time prior to release that’s suitable to them.

      In all of these cases, the developers’ statements about their PC plans accurately reflected their plans at the time. The decisions to move to the Epic Games store came later.

      Is there any reason more devs cannot be allowed to do a simultaneous Steam/EGS/every other pc store launch?

      The store will be opening up more widely over time as we build in more automation for developers to submit games and maintain their product pages, and as we build more useful curation and search functionality for surfacing a larger catalog of games.

      We think these upcoming curation and self-service features are necessary for success with a significantly higher volume of games. That’s why we’re not opening up more broadly yet.

          That's means you know EGS lack feature and can't compete with even GOG. So you pay money to do exclusive. I don't see a word about what exclusive benefits the customers. If you think EGS is not good enough, improve it first before wasting money to ask customers to use it.

          But I am pretty sure your plan is to do exclusive until one day EGS has monopolized the market or you waste all the Fortnite money and EGS still have no features to compete with GOG and Steam. Every word you use are selfish corporate “reason”, no intention to benifit customers.

          Every now and then I come here to check how Mr Swiney is dealing with his ridiculously high Ivory tower. And everytime I come I see Mr Swiney is still trying to save us from the "Steam's Monopoly"(creating his own monopoly)
