The Epic Store won't accept 'crappy games,' says Tim Sweeney

pcgamer.com/the-epic-store-wont-accept-crappy-games-says-ceo-tim-sweeney/

>"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."

Unironically based. Too bad it's owned by chinks or I would use it.

I wonder what standards he'll use to decide what is and isn't a crap game...

How much are you getting paid for making these threads? Hope you're not doing this for free, Cheng.

Translation: Our standards are going to slip down to worse than Steam's as soon as Fortnite stops raking in cash hand over fist, prepare your anuses for the absolute worst chinkshit ripoffs.

>we won't allow games we don't agree with

I translated that for you.

I think what they mean is no asset flips

but they have fortnite on it right now

>"We'll have a quality standard that doesn't accept crappy games,"

Bullshit. If Epic Store starts making Steam amounts of cash, it'll be full of shovelware by then

they're going to burn their budget out quick.

You may only reply to this post if every game you have in your Epic library is a free games they gave out

I'm glad you used the word "product" because we both agree it is not a quality game.

For every quality game on Epic store, Steam has 100 objectively worse ones. But of course if it doesn't fit the Steamfag narrative it doesnt count.

does UE4 count?

I'll allow it

You already posted this thread earlier today. How much do you make per repost?

I want to predict that nerds are going to act like triple-A titles that they didn't like should qualify as "crappy games", but I can see that there are already posts in this thread that have beaten that prediction out

So there won't be any games made after 2007 on it then?

Too bad Epic Store has no quality games

I wish Yea Forums would stop accepting "crappy threads".

They aren't games user

Why can't Steam have some damn curation? It's honestly the only thing holding it back from being a perfect platform for both indies and AAA publishers. There was a time when Bad Rats became a legend because it was baffling to see such a shitty game make it on Steam. But now Bad Rats is a fucking masterpiece compared to the piles of shit thrown on the store's site.

you know what crappy means for the great leader?
I dont, but you get the idea.

>letting corporations decide for you what games to play
yikes and people unironically defend this

Games with an actual budget provided by publishers are in fact better quality than Asset Flip 18, but nice try.

>A GTA game would be fine to us

So it's okay as long as it makes money. I see.

>not joining the winning side
fag

nobody is winning here besides suitmen you corporate whore

There are hundreds of games with a budget on Steam that are good
in fact the good games on Steam outweigh the entirety of the Epic Games catalog too.

why are steam drones in every one of these threads shilling nonsense?

the first steam related response was from an epic shill so try again honey

Because you stupid chink shills keep spamming the exact same threads over and over. This one has been posted at least 5 times and it follows the exact same template all your obvious shill threads follow.

If you were correct that Steam Cultists hate competition why do they not care about GoG, Origin, Bethesda Launcher and Uplay?

Great idea to let a Chinese corporative bought bitch dictate what you should be or not playing and watching, really fucking intelligent.
youtube.com/watch?v=HjEk61KlOtk

but why do they do this? They cant believe that spamming the same thread on an anonymous image board over and over again will change the general opinion.

You'd be surprised. People have been viral marketing and shilling shit on Yea Forums for over a decade now. I remember it was really obvious with the original Borderlands back in '08, that's when I got wise of it and now I see it about everywhere.

Too late for that. All that indie garbage they put on their store sinking up the place like week old garbage.

Its called viral marketing and they won't stop doing it until mods do something about them or people start to agree with them

This video is retarded, that Chinese voice was clearly edited in and wasn't said by Sam Hyde

I've never until now believed in blatant paid shilling of anything here. This thread does not need to be reposted daily. Yeah, I get it, this is the core demographic. Fuck off. This is pretty much advertisement.

>projecting

I hope they're getting paid to do this but legitimately believe 80+% are just low tier trolls and / or just retarded.

>You also won't find porn games on the Epic Store
I would honestly rather play Sengoku Rance, Utawarerumono, or Kamidori Alchemy Meister than anything offered on the Epic store.

I disagree with your view, Xbox is still competition to the PS even though Yea Forums doesn't worry about it nowadays. All it has to do is to pick up the slack and try to be better than the PS.

Same. They've been taping the phone lines too. And chemtrails man.

>Kamidori Alchemy Meister
Goddammit, now I have to reinstall it. Maybe I'll actually figure out how to do the postgame shit this time.

Yes because thinking that companies viral market on one of the most frequented anonymous imageboards in the world is equivalent to believing in flat earth theory.

There are hundreds of games with a budget on Steam that suck fucking pig shit through a narrow tube. "Games with a budget" is fucking meaningless.

There goes our chance of gravity rush on pc, damn

>Yea Forums doesn't worry about it
Nobody worries about Xbox, Xbox is the biggest joke in gaming right now. They're going third party at this point, there'll be no reason to buy an Xbone 2 because everything will be on PC and Switch.

thats not based.
thats the opposite of based.

That might be, but currently they're still in the console competition

I love how you fags went from posting a random image, link to article and giving your opinion, to simply take a screenshot of article, copypaste what you see on the screenshot, and link to the fucking article from the screenshot
I fucking hate newfags so much

Considering the latest addition, 'not crappy' stands for technically sound games without the consideration of being deprived from enjoyable gameplay.

Problem being who is the arbiter of "quality"? Sure, it will wean out games that barely work at all but what about more subjective games?

And yet you are here, seething hard

Found 4 now fuck off with your shilling

Just fucking release Journey already jesus fucking christ it's literally only reason I still haven't deleted launcher.

On the board of directors.

who the fuck is this guy to judge what is a crappy game, many classics were a buggy mess when they launched does that mean he would insantly kill those games by denying them sales? What about games like deadly premonition, it looks like a ps2 game, full of jank yet its unique and one of a kind. These assholes cant be wllowed to become big

How you know Outer World is going to be shit before it comes out

>Its funny because the guy is Asian
>as were the 1000 people killed in Tiananmen Square in 1989

Does Epic have any advantage for the consumer over Steam, other than one (1) game costing $5 less as a result of being on the Epic store?

>writers based on of the characters off of Rick from Rick and Morty
>entire writing team is made up of diversity hires
>gameplay looks janky
there is a chance it will be good but I doubt its very high

Epic gives out a lot of free games, but what about Free Tibet?
