The store wars trace back to 2016, when now-former Microsoft execs sought to follow iOS's closed platform model. Now it's 2019 and Windows is more open than ever, while Epic's shaking things up with an 88%/12% split and exclusives, and GOG is connecting ecosystems.

@TimSweeneyEpic If you wish to fund something, consider adding more platformer elements to the engine, and relevant content+code to that end. Once, we used to have iconic long distance cameras, nobody makes this anymore. See: https://vimeo.com/8942289 http://ubiqvisuals.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=55 …Thanks.

Its super hard to believe that a company like epic dont have the resources to put 1 extra indie game in their store, why dont you tell us the truth? EGS force indies to go exclusive while they have no problem not being exclusive with big AAA titles... stop lying...

It's pretty clear they don't want a fair competition between Steam. Once these big titles, Bloodlines 2 and Cyberpunk 2077, come out almost on every platform available, we will see a fair fight how the split between different "launchers" goes.

"We invited a game to be on EGS because it's good, but when we heard it wanted to adopt our proclaimed vision of TEH MULTI-STORE FUTURE we didn't even want them even if it would support charity!!" This is so funny on a couple of levels. How embarrassing, Tim.

Pretty disgusting really. Denying a game launching on his shit store because they don't bow to his scummy exclusivity practices flies directly in the face of what he claims to want. Can't say I've seen a bigger hypocrit. Anyone that isn't a complete shill can see right through it

But yet epic wanted darq game for their store but only after the darq dev refused the offer did Tim say there just isnt enough room on the epic store for every game but yet there WAS room until he refused exclusivity deal from Epic. So you completely contradict yourself Tim.

You forgot to mention: customer interests also don't factor into it.
