>"We'll have a quality standard that doesn't accept crappy games," he said. "We'll accept reasonably good quality games, of any scale, whether small indie games to huge triple-A games, and we'll take everything up to, like, an R-rated movie or an M-rated game. A GTA game would be fine to us, but Epic's not going to distribute porn games or bloatware or asset flips, or any sort of thing that's meant to shock players. The PC's an open platform and if we don't distribute it in our store you can still reach consumers directly."
You also won't find customers on the Epic Store. >Epic's not going to distribute porn games Yeah, wouldn't want any of that porno, no body likes that stuff.
Give it 5 years and this will happen. If anyone remembered, Valve opened up Steam for other developers and publishers in 2008. In 2013, they introduced Steam Greenlight when they were getting increasingly criticized for their curation.

Indie Devs BTFO LAMO, all those fucking retarded shills getting BTFO now, can't believe they thought their shitty games was ever getting on a curated storefront
Valve absolutely needs to curate their store or they will become irrelevant within the next couple years.
Daniel Adams
How about fucking metascore for a start?
Jose Brooks
>Valve curated their store >Everyone bitches >Valve introduces Greenlight >Everyone bitches that it's not fair to everyone >Valve drops Greenlight and just lets people release their game on Steam if they want with no barriers >Everyone bitches that there are too many games so they don't get sales Really makes you think
wheres the tayal guy tell him to sell his game on epic store and see how that works out for him
Levi Morgan
yeah, that's what we said about steam until we stopped believing in them
Colton Scott
Moral of the story? Don't listen to consumers. They don't know what they want.
Matthew Russell
ackshually... they only have crap gayms. good gayms, like dawn of man: only on steam.
1 time play stuff like metro exocuck: epic.

truth hurts, knave i know. back 2 play with your penis sucker 4, maybe you get errection this time
we on pc prefer games that acutally deserve the title, not 5 minute jackoff porn on shitstation. it's easy. you lose we win. bye

Is it true that the Epic launcher will scan your computer for Steam files containing your personal data and upload them to chinese servers?
Camden Taylor
No
Julian Richardson
yes
James Parker
not just steam. they scan your entire HD. it's basically a trojan.
Ayden Rodriguez
>the Epic launcher will scan your computer for Steam files containing your personal data Yes >and upload them to chinese servers? Epic claims they won't, but also why the fuck to they need to know my games owned, playtime of those games, my wishlist, and other things to connect my friends list?
Justin Taylor
is that why my PC becomes slow whenever the Epic app is open?
Dylan Roberts
no that's windows 10. it's an even bigger trojan.
Jeremiah Mitchell
you good?
Caleb Reed
Everything scans your computer. Windows 10, Web-Services, Anti-Cheat Software, and yes, Steam, Origin and the Epic Store scan your Computer as well.
If you want any semblance of privacy in 2019 you better migrate to a hardened version of Linux and only access the web via VPNs and TOR.
Ian Rogers
I'd rather support the Google gaming streaming service than the Epic store, get fucked Tom Sweeney.
Isaiah Jones
They have early access, and Greenlight caused more trouble than it was worth.
Noah Lee
>the epic store won't accept 'crappy games' >epic store would like to announce a partnership with QUANTIC DREAM
Ill stop believing him when early access asset flips are on it
Nolan Myers
>asset flips and scamware that prevalent in Steam
They're really not unless you're actively seeking them out. I mean if you're constantly searching for trash games the algorithm is gonna think that's what you want and suggest more of it to you
Man it's such a shame that Remedy decided to partner up with Epic, they're about the only modern developer I think deservers the support and now I'll have to pirate their game with a heavy heart.
Angel Hughes
>Remedy decided to partner up with Epic
$5 says it was the publisher 505 Games and Remedy had absolutely no say in it, just like Obsidian and their publisher Private Division
Jason Kelly

Joseph Evans
>I'll have to pirate their game with a heavy heart
The devs/publishers already got paid by Epic for this exclusivity deal. Buying the game really only benefits Epic unless the minimum sales threshold is reached (it won't)
Owen Bell
fortnite kids aren't the general consensus sweetie
Eli Stewart
Even self published indies take the deal - take your conspiracies elsewhere
Benjamin Phillips
>crappy games >Using this term in a official statement Confirmed epic store full of 12 year olds kids. Not only will i not buy anything from that company i will pirate everything.
>Publishing virtually owning the devs and making deals for them is a conspiracy
Underaged detected, fuck off kid.
Jason Nguyen
But he can afford to buy pheonix point. Literally, he gave them so much money they said if they sell 0 copies they still profit.
Julian Moore
>take your conspiracies elsewhere What? If it was a self-published indie then obviously the developer themselves took the deal. If it is a game with a publisher then no shit it's the publisher that took the deal
Robert Jackson
>Do you like big juicy cocks and huge tits? Yea >Then this game is for you! No sir it does not appear that way.
Why? Just seems like you're trying to derail criticism against EPIC.
Chase Moore
Daily reminder that the same journalists that slam steam for the shovelware are the ones that pushed for lower standards. Except porn admittedly.
Ian Reed
I'm not going to say where because I don't want to turn this into /pol/ but basically the authorities associate Tor with pedophiles and if for whatever reason they look up your computer and see it has Tor installed you're fucked.

Daily reminder that Steam now has lower standards AND still bans porn/VNs so you can stop pretending that lower standards is a good thing to spite faggot journos
Jayden Nelson
how would Yea Forums react if Bloodborne was coming to the Epic Games store?
Lincoln Rogers
Why are these so effective?
Matthew Jackson
Cool, too bad I'm never downloading your greatly inferior and potentially spyware ridden software, I have enough of that already.
I already have steam, the blizzard launcher, and origin I don't need a fourth store front. I swear to god if the MCC collection moves to the epic game store in the final hour I am gonna flip my shit.
>Implying Japanese samurai would ally with China in any way.
Luis Rodriguez
I don't understand the point of even having porn/VNs on Steam. There's so many other ways you can support the original creators DIRECTLY (i.e. dlsite). Why do people insist that this shit NEEDS to be on Steam?
Jaxson Rogers
Honest question, why would anyone want to use a game service that doesn't even have a review system for games on their store?
OP is a fucking faggot holy shit got OP just makes want to shoot my fucking dick off i fucking hate op so much op please fucking choke on all these (you)s you stupid fucking faggot holy shit if i knew you in real life i'd call you a fucking idiot faggot idiot idiot faggot idiot

It's kind'a funny, because being openly accepting of porn and loli is just about the only chance in hell they have of succeeding, short of spending billions to buy up AAA exclusives which will never happen.
Parker King
