- Shigeru Miyamoto
It's because Epic doesn't have any reviews or forums of their own for people to complain in.
that's fucked up when you think about it
Yes, the children of Steam are all 4D chess grand masters beyond the realm of comprehension, it isn't our place to understand, merely to observe.
And laugh hysterically.
be me didnt know any of the broderlands want to see whats the fuzz about it playing older game , see overly negative reviews dont buy the game instead pirate , its pretty simple
No, it makes perfect sense when you look at Steam.
>its a Steamtards swarm a game episode
>We dislike a decision made for one game, so let's put bad reviews on a different game.
Mmmmmm gonna be 6 months without Steambois.
Can't wait.
t.chink
literal babies
Wait, does it only discard negative reviews during that time frame, or all reviews? That'd be fucked up if it were just negative reviews.
yes hopefully those sjw chink cock sudckers will learn, if i review bomb a 70 year old game.
Learn to read, nigga. Epic having no way for consumers to complain shields the dev from unwated critique. They then go to the only place they have left which is steam, showing that Epic was right in not providing any forum to give feedback, since most of it would be negastive for the retarded desicions they're making.
They knew perfectly well what they were about to do when they said "no review/forums" on ES.
Only during the time of review-bombing, tough yo ucan turn it off and still get everything unfiltered.
>457157421
Yeah but during that time of review bombing, does it only discard negative reviews or both positive and negative?
you act as if steam reviews ever meant anything
>steamniggers again acting like negros
Lmao pathetic
Evil must be punished.

GAMERS RISE UP
Pretty fucking glad i'm an alpha chad who doesn't have to be associated with you embarrassing fucks irl.
This game is boring
I'm too lazy what you guys are arguing about but Steam reviews (and user reviews in general, even on shit like metacritic) are fucking GREAT
The ability to quickly find a detailed pro and con list for a game that isn't as biased as """journalists""" is absolutely amazing. I don't care how many meme reviews there usually are or what the average score is but just having someone point out flaws in a relatively objective manner is incredibly helpful to deciding whether I want to buy a game
Yes, nothing is stopping anyone to do it and people are doing it, there is nothing else to it.
It's the only thing they can realistically do that has SOME potential impact on Shitbox.
I don't know why they care so much though.
Nothing wrong with this. Anyone who thinks its 'cringe' is a fucking child. If a company fucks up to tell'em and if they don't listen you hurt them if possible any way you can.
>implying they don't
Maybe not for massivley marketed AAA releases but every other games life fucking depends on it. Indie especially have said multiple times that they hate the system since everything that doesn't get overwhelmingly positve record is dead to the greater part of the userbase. Why the fuck do you think have they been shitting on it and begged Vavel for removing it?
come on after 1 it became DLClands much like payday became MTXday
But they did??? It's written by people like you or me, if you doubt a game is functional or fun you just scroll down a bit through them and see several stating how the game is, hell you can even check the Negative ones and the top ones that are the highest rated will ALWAYS have good criticism
guys UCP is not working for me anymore, what do?
>tfw stopped Presequel at 3 hours too.
How did it get so bad? I even had two friends to play alone with. One also quit.
>The ability to quickly find a detailed pro and con list for a game that isn't as biased as """journalists"""
what did he mean by this
steamniggers are fucking cringe
>giving a slightest fuck about steam reviews
>Am I too low IQ
you're, my condolences
Trudging through a disgusting sewer is more fun with friends as well
name 1 thing that isnt fun with friends
Why the fuck are people hyped for 3.
Borderlands is total SHIT. It's fucking garbage. I seriously can't understand why people like it. It's a terrible FPS with annoying characters. It's the Battleborn of FPS.
You hurt them by not giving them money, not by buying their product
It is cringe, you child.
It won't impact them at all.
If you fags are actually mad, stop buying games made and published by Gearbox. And stop buying games published by 2K.
If you can't do that, you're a worthless cuck.
e-sports cancer
It wasn't announced to be on steam and then taken away like metro was. What, are they taking borderlands 1 and 2 off steam and only on epic from now on too?
What he meant by this is that niggers review bombing games isn't the norm and doesn't invalidate the entire concept of a user review
Shit, even sorting them by helpfulness gives you hundreds of negative reviews that tell you exactly every aspect that went wrong with the game
>yet steam reviews manage big publishers to remove their shoddy messes to fix and release them alter on
Yeah, they're totally worthless. The consumer should just take what is in front of him and not have any say about it whatsoever.
sex, if you are the same gender
Being in a nazi death camp
the NPCS and writing were so much worse than 2, and that's saying a lot
It's seen as one of the only forms of protest people have, they can't exactly discuss it on the fucking Epic store forums or reviews so they have to take what they can get, go to steam and announce their displeasure in a way the devs might actually notice
Sucks that a good game is gonna get hit with negative reviews that don't apply to it specifically but it's better than staying silent
and steam is apparently gonna include a filter for these reviews if they bother you so it wont be a problem if you just care about the game itself and not any controversy surrounding it
>vote with your wallet
This doesn't work.
>Can't write a review on Borderlands 3 since it hasn't launched yet
>Average people don't browse the forum
Most visible way to express disatisfaction, I guess.
>Epic doesn't allow people to bitch at them whenever they do something shitty
And that's a good thing.
>review bombing games isn't the norm
So I guess you dont use steam that often huh
Zoomers love it though
Based and redpilled Trumpkino

Downvoting games reddit style won't work at all
at least they're not chinks lmao ching chong massacre HAHA
Easy, the gameplay is always the same shit so you get bored of it
You're ignorant my friend if you think not buying things does shit.
yes you are. besides who the fuck buys a Borderlands game day 1 anyways ? Borderlands games are only good when all the DLC is bundled with the base game on sale.
Thats when the series makes it fucking money.

LOOK MOM I DOWNVOTED THE GAME ON STEAM
Shut the fuck up you 14 year old
I've made my point and you know damn well negative reviews are helpful in deciding whether to purchase a game
Very "HELPFUL" review, thanks random steam user with no bias
>not giving the consumer a voice is a good thing
Yeah, we really fucked that one up...
Drinking piss
Getting oral surgery
Running after eating a large meal
Eating expired food
Cutting grass
But downvoting games like a redditor works?
It would be fun if you deleted the mental barrier and social prejudice
even if you're not gay
I seriously cant get the appeal of borderlands it has reddit tier humour and most of its fanbase are rick and morty lovers
Don't read positive reviews then if you're physically unable to ignore meme shit
Jesus fucking christ, every time it's the same cognitive inability with you fucks
Sorry I don't really trust random /pol/ user with 700 updoots to review a game with a black person as the MC. While they disguise their review to look competent as they will to mask the irony.
worked with battlefield 5
Claptrap is the main reason I can't enjoy Borderlands. What the fuck were they thinking?
If you can get enough people to cause a big enough fuss it will.
COPE
Running after eating a large meal and eating expired food could be fun with friends desu. See who pukes first
>There are chink rats ITT defending their shitty launcher and company that uses chink tier backstabbing culture tactics and silence any opinion like their based Xi likes
Show me that review where someone somehow makes valid points to "disguise" their true criticism of a nigger MC
Then explain to me in detail how that invalidates the valid points that are only used for masking the true intentions
Then explain to me why you are unable to separate them
>last 30 days
yeah those steam reviews for battlefront 2 really helped.
The spreading of information and EA putting out dumb shit time after time is what did it. Not personally you refusing to buy the game.
>>last 30 days
its not like games have updates or anything. you don't want to be reading about an old version do you if the game has improved a lot you retard.
Dude... Please stop attacking reddit... They're our allies and with their help we're gonna bring epic down once and for all
It does if you actually do constructive things like vocalize your opinion with nuance on public forums and organize a boycott or something else of scale. Like if you were to organize a protest that results in BL3 getting terrible sales on the Epic Store upon release, that would send a message
Review bombing a 7 year old game that has already attracted most of the audience it will ever see accomplished virtually nothing beyond making you look like a pointless reactionary
anal torture
China doesn't even have the epic store you filthy shitposter. they can't even post here.
Hey there tim
take my updoot
Resident Evil 6
Sure thing Tencent shill
Then why was the film Boy in Striped Pajamas fun
Then read the last 30 days on top of the general criticism if you must know about updated shit
Honestly, it sounds as if you're just too lazy to actually research a game before buying it. Keep trusting yoru favorite """journalist""", I'm sure you'll forever be happy with your purchasing decisions
I haven't regretted a single Steam purchase since public user reviews were implemented
I'd give you gold if I could.
Don't use Dota1 memes for your launcher faggotry, nigger.

>Indie especially have said multiple times that they hate the system since everything that doesn't get overwhelmingly positve record is dead to the greater part of the userbase
That's a load of shit. I know that say that sometimes but Steam has blown open the indie market to potential audience and profit levels never before seen. Without naming myself I'm a big Let's Player, everyday I peruse Itch.io, Steam, Jolt and every other platform for new releases and Steam reviews have almost 9/10 times hit the nail on quality. Those indies that have "unfair mediocre reviews" are in fact mediocre or awful, I don't tell them that to their face but I get free keys and there's so many even with production value indie games that are the most mediocre or lowest grade out there. They're almost always horror or some "story focused" game or indie platformer that just doesn't know what to make a game click.
AAA's are the ones that are truly scared of review systems or counter viral marketing, there's been AAA flops one after the other in recent years because the old strategy of delaying reviews and no demo doesn't work anymore, people pick apart early footage, hear hearsay from streamers/tubers who weren't paid and got to play early copies and once it hits the shelves first wave impressions flood social networks and people know something is shit within 24 hours and the refunds come flying. They're terrified how much power consumers have suddenly gotten, which is why Epic itself has started a war that they've said will not be determined by consumers. Look at the same situation repeating itself in film where shilled movies flopped and movies they weren't pushing skyrocketed just from word of mouth strength, which is why they're moving to nerf movie reviewing sites.
Well at least it's getting the scores it deserves now, looter shooters are so fucking boring.
Do you even understand the meaning of a word "biased"
>it sounds as if you're just too lazy to actually research a game before buying it.
I hope thats irony in that statement, because you just played yourself.
>boring
>still bought it though
You've already stoked the machine. An opinion doesn't mean shit if you're already part of the fuel.
What if you and your bro are the nazis though?
But they literally don't. You can't access the store from china. iirc even Fortnite isn't allowed in china since it's too violent or something like that.

>not lazy
>company does something bad
>customers do what they can to punish the company
whoa what a mystery
Epic doesn't have forums and they must voice their displeasure in a visible way, so when Borderlands 3 crash and burn on PC people will say it was because of the Epic Store instead of the idiot fucks that made the call hiding behind bullshit excuses like piracy or that they were too PC for the nazis.
So did the new updates that just happened to BL1, 2, and TPS do anything?
Yeah that is true, but that's not voting with your wallet.
Review bombing of a game can draw attention and lead to the things you've mentioned above. It also lets the publisher/developers know a good number of people aren't pleased with their decisions in a rather lazy way. I'd rather everyone write out emails everyday or something else, but people are lazy
>Look at the same situation repeating itself in film where shilled movies flopped
ONE FUCKING BILLION FAGGOT
added epic Chinese botnet
>Gabe will block all reviews created during negative spikes
>edited my old positive review to negative
>complain on some shitty gaming forum
>no one sees your displeasure or cares
Leaving a bad review is the only way for the consumer to leave a somewhat permanent mark of their grievance. They have no power beyond "voting with their wallet", which is itself a joke. The alternatives would be public protest IRL, but who gives a fuck about video game public protests?
BL2 and TPS got a 4K UHD + whatever the fuck graphics patch. Borderlands 2 VR is coming later. Borderlands 1 got a complete "enhanced" edition that updated the graphics and included features from the second game back into the first, everybody who already owned Borderlands got it for free.
All good and bad. Bomb or serious. It's just a window that gets ignored entirely
Epic doesn't have reviews or forums so people can't use their service to voice displeasure
>it's not biased if things that I want happening
the first one is alright but not great
not what I said but I guess you just outed yourself. enjoy your free dota plus sub
>Borderlands 1 got a complete "enhanced" edition that updated the graphics and included features from the second game back into the first, everybody who already owned Borderlands got it for free.
Did it fix the fucking camera?
>GOTY Enhanced edition popped up on steam
Should I download it? I only played like 3 hours of BL1 because I got it for free at some point.
horror games
You're right. The masses have been brainwashed and conditioned to accept any type of garbage they're presented with. This is how PS+ and XBL gold, DLC, Microtransaction, and all this shit thrives and makes corporations billions. At the end of the day, gamers are probably the dumbest demographic out there. And a good percentage don't even use their own money so who cares right. Epic is not good for anything, but ultimately it will succeed. If that wasn't the case, they wouldn't be sinking money the way they are now. They're pretty much operating on a loss right now for every single exclusive they get.

This helps Steam how
No
You think it's gonna be fun but you can't ever be prepared for how boring these games are
What was wrong with the camera again?
Yeah, sure, the guns from the first game are cooler than the guns from the second so have fun.

Wrong board, capeshitter
you're not even a pirate anymore bro. Epic is playing for you now.
Memelands 2 deserves it regardless
>What was wrong with the camera again?
The portjob to PC was a straight port, so even though you had a mouse, it was like controlling it through a controller stick.
except that the other ones arent on epic and they probably have some deal with steam too and cant easily bring it over
The fact you can insta kill most enemies by butt slamming near them kinda ruins anything close to difficulty.
Also pandora was already space Australia, the added australianess ruined it.
Just download Epic.
It's free; it's not like you have to shell out another $300 for a new console to play it.

Have sex with a loli, nigger.
they've got a new system that basically does that yeah.
I'm just getting it on my Xbox
Thank God
its just a 6 month exclusive bro...
Ah, that. I honestly have no idea, gameplay wise they said they would add the minimap from 2 so you wouldn't have to rely on the compass anymore, but most of their braggin was about the graphics update. I would try it out but I am not in the mood to shoot the same guy in the face for 20 hours straight right now.
But I'll have it, Epic already paid for my copy. :)
>Epic having no way for consumers to complain shields the dev from unwated critique.
Yeah, because social media isn't a thing which is more visible to the average joe vs. a graph on a game page you have to SCROLL DOWN to see.
second one was pretty kek
switch is pirate central though
You'll get banned for targeted harassment
Most people don't give a shit about the graph. They only care about the thing at the top before the price. If they see anything else then blue they just click it away.

Reminder that the term "review bombing" is used to silence consumer criticism. They're trying to paint such things as inherently ridiculous or wrong in order to dismiss it out of hand without addressing any real issues.
Other than it being MEMELANDS: The Meme-Sequel, it just fucked up pacing. Slow traversal + fast and easy combat means a lot of the time you aren't doing anything.
they do
>it makes perfect sence
if you think like a shareholder, it does. fuck off
I really dont understand the Epic store butthurt. Are you guys really that mad you'd have to open up another launcher if they had a game you wanted on it? That sounds like a slight inconvenience at most.
Imagine still making this disingenuous post after the point has been refuted time and time again.
So do people think there is actually something wrong with it or is everyone just shitposting? Its hard for me to tell these days.
Didn't based and redpilled Trumpkino Steam find a way to stop cringe and bluepilled Hilary Clinton supporting review bombers?
God I fucking love PC
no im mad that despite them shitting out money from retarded fortnite kids they cant be assed to afford a good security system
i wouldnt be so against using it if i didnt get a billion hack attempts a day
Imagine having a room full of furniture, but then you go to a store and they force you to put a new piece only in the bathroom. Who cares if it ends up soaking up piss and shit particles right? All you gotta do is walk to the bathroom to enjoy it.

>tries to punish the company
>by giving a bad review to a game already out years ago
Again, how does this make sense?
This but unironically
so you dont actually have a reason?
and no china lul is not a reason they own most of your life already.
I don't think i've ever seen a post so desperate for a reply. You need to dial it back bud. Anyways, Enjoy.
Several """journalists""" have come out to condemn the practice on different outlets. And as to be expected, many people completely buy into the narrative that the consumers are just being entitled.
>review bombing a game that everyone interested in it had already bought in some sale ages ago
Oh shit, thanks for reminding me, I nearly forgot to do that since I got home.
>bro it would be fun if you removed the things that made it not fun!

>just let the Chinese mine your data!
Holy fuck that is the dumbest analogy I've ever seen on this site.
Cutting grass is fun either way
I really want to print this post and just hang it in the office.
>afraid bad reviews will ruin their reputation
>consciously make a poor decision that ruins their own reputation
what did they mean by this?
how many times are you shills gonna post this shit? I DON'T CARE AND WILL NOT INSTALL YOUR SHIT STORE
is it so hard to understand? will you ever give up on shilling?
they already do you retard. you're just making this more of a fuss now because of your steam sunk cost. China is just a scapegoat argument for you.
Hopefully is means a better netcode and more balanced enemy scaling in Enhanced edition.
nobody wants to install your shit china store
*sips*
Enhanced adds the changes that were made to it. GOTY is just BL1 basically.
>imagine sucking any corporate dick at all
Yikes.
why aren't you more subtle with your shilling? is it so hard to accept 98% of consumers hate your shit store?
any BLCMM users here? BLCMM dosent work anymore and i suspect its beacuse of a new patch. are there any fixes out yet?
>you're just making this more of a fuss now because of your steam sunk cost.
Not him, but I can make some easy arguments as to why Epic's store is shit without going 'China bad'
-Epic doesn't mass generate keys for free for publishers to sell to other stores, so you won't be able to buy from third-parties who are competing on price (only from a 'partner' like Humble Bundle which will just sell the game at the exact same price)
-If you live in an area that doesn't have high amounts of credit card usage, you might usually rely on cash cards to buy your vidya, and unlike something like Steam which eats the cost themselves Epic will just charge you more (given their low take for themselves)
-Instead of using their vast wealth from Fortnite to make brand new titles for their store, Epic's paying to take choice of where to buy away from customers, and this includes both Steam and GOG options being taken away
-Ironically if you live in China you can't actually buy games from Epic
-If you're one of the few Linux people out there you're screwed because you can't as easily take advantage of Proton or anything like that
-The 88/12 split becoming a regular thing likely won't hurt Steam all that much overall, but it will kill all the third-party sellers which provide better prices for games like Green Man Gaming, Voidu, Fanatical and Gamesplanet
-Tim Sweeney himself has said that he doesn't want to do sales even on the level of current-day Steam, along with a clear focus on his store being more publisher-friendly instead of customer-friendly (for example, an opt-in review system)
Not like this will negate all the sales BL2 already made.
so you have no reason. okay. Was just asking if there was an actual legitimate reason.
>review bombing a game an overwhelmingly positive score on steam from 7 years of reviews
>implying this is going to do shit.
I truly apologize for making you so upset, user. I was really just curious. I'm just glad none of my friends are part of this weird crusade against a non-steam launcher. We've been dying for this game to get announced. Hell, we've been dying to have a good new co-op game on PC for a long while. This and MCC are a godsend.
is it so hard to understand nobody likes your store?
>y...you don't have a reason!!
what? do you want to hear a reason just to cope?
Only because you're unable to understand it doesn't make it bad, retard.
I get paid to shitpost on here as long as I shill right wing stuff.
I'm sorry.
I'll just wait 6 months and get the steam version when it comes out. Considering I'm going to be playing through the series with my friend and we can only play when our schedules are online, by the time we get through the other 3 games it'll be out on steam anyway.
So are you going to respond to ?
What makes you this itll be timed exclusive? Serious question, I may wait too.
The news we got today said it's a 6 month exclusive.
They said it's 6 months
We do what we have to do to get by steamdrone
>why do people dislike Tencent so much
this has been asked a hundred times already and has been answered a hundred times already, with multiple points
Pretending to be oblivious will not help, and if you're excited by Randy western vomit inducing trash, unironically, fine, have fun
>-The 88/12 split becoming a regular thing likely won't hurt Steam all that much overall, but it will kill all the third-party sellers which provide better prices for games like Green Man Gaming, Voidu, Fanatical and Gamesplanet
They won't keep the split tough. Timmyboy already said that they can't operate at that margin, even less sos with all the buying out, which they wanted to stop after Phoenix Point. Guess tencent just told him to keep doing it and he complied like the good boy that he is.
Well shit why the fuck are people so mad then?
Think about it for more than a second, retard. That company still makes money fro
That game when someone buys it. When's the last time you bought a game with a shitty rating?
>people who are curious about the series will see the negative reviews and think that it's a bad series
Considering all the recent negative reviews just say fuck Epic and nothing else, and Steam differentiates recent reviews from overall reviews, only the extraordinarily stupid would fall for that.
Because despite how many people here say that these games are only good when all the content dlc is out, the reality is they can't stand not having the Day 1 experience.
Good thing thats the majority of people who play video games.
no because I accept his response and have nothing more to say.
This review bomb wont even make a dent in the postive reviews the game has accumulated for years. Anyone who sees the seperate negative recent review score will look at the reviews themselves and see they have nothing to do with game itself.
Nah the majority would just listen to some IGN review and buy it based off that.
sao you're admitting you're litearlly a gaben cock wringer. and actually have no reason. Thats okay, I just wanted to know if your hissy fit had a rational argument to it. I guess not, Carry on review bombing I have my answer.
Making a big assumption there that people bother to read the reviews instead of looking at the numbers and going "game bad"
>and somehow, steamfags still think they're above consolefaggots
The only ones with the high ground here are the idorts.
this, I don't get why consumers are so mad.
We publishers want the best experience for them, I don't understand all this backlash.
There is NO other way to let the companies know how you feel with any impact. Social media or visitng their forums will just get you ignored and blocked. Email will be tossed by CSRs.
Hell, Epic doesn't even HAVE a way to address this.
epic shill
except everyone thats giving them a bad review are the people that ACTUALLY played and loved the game, you know, the CONSUMERS
is it so hard to understand?
Battlefront 2 was not released on steam
>Boomers think its spyware
>Forgotten about how steam was though to be this too
>Forgot how origin and uplay were also though believed to have this
>Forgotten the whole windows 10/vista probelms
All of a sudden epic store is the only bad guy huh? Literal fear mongering of something new like usual.
I don't play PC games because I'm not a massive faggot.
The reasons have been stated multiple times already and yet you shills are using this coping argument now of
>y...you have no reason
does it bother you so much your shit store is disliked by the 99% of consumers?
>They care what reviews their 8 year old game gets all of a sudden
It makes sense because epic only cares about grooming publishers for their future gaming empire.
Except all of those were and still are spyware
thats not your reason retard. Another scapegoat argument for your own sunken costs.
LMAO what a bunch of little bitches. What did you fags accomplish when you did the same with Metro?
>Boomers think its spyware
>think
Someone post it.
Steam review bombing seems to be the only way to get devs to listen to players not being satisfied with something a company is doing with the series. Its why Epic games don't want forums.
yes, consumers care, unlike you corporate shills and unlike publishers, who actually hate consumers and only want their money
>-If you live in an area that doesn't have high amounts of credit card usage, you might usually rely on cash cards to buy your vidya, and unlike something like Steam which eats the cost themselves Epic will just charge you more (given their low take for themselves)
Wtf is this? Who are these people and places?
>t...that doesn't count!
holy shit
Don't know what you are even talking about anymore
Wow it's almodt like Epic is doing shit deemed unacceptable 10 years ago.
The system was retro-active so you can already see it works.
What a moron.
It not all that big an assumption people will investigate further if they if they see "Overall Score: Overwhelmingly Postive" and then "Recent Score: Negative". Remember this isnt the release crowd anymore, the only people looking to buy it now are likely those who specifically want this type of game. This type of buyer looks at reviews.
Ignoring the fact that borderlands games are all shit, the reason people do this kind of reviewbombing previous games is out of protest against the company willingly exclusivizing their game on a "platform" that is just spyware designed to steal all your information and sell it for more money.
It SCREAMS that the company cares far more about the bottom line than about good relations or actually having a long term sustainable plan via customer satisfaction.
I can't completely blame them though, with how utterly cucked and stupid the average person is these days, they tend to just take it up the ass and not say anything.
>ehh...heh! d...don't know w...waht you're talking about!
Lets not pretend that you know anything about looking at wireshark network traffic
>What did you fags accomplish when you did the same with Metro?
Well apparently Metro Exodus sold so poorly on the Epic Game Store that they wouldn't even give out actual sales numbers
>Wtf is this? Who are these people and places?
It's places in the third-world, the places people told Valve they would never successfully break into because everyone's a pirate there. Surprise surprise when the service is good and convenient for people they'll actually buy things
It was meme'd on reddit tho.
Because they dont care. Nor do they have to care.
What sort of lie is this? Piracy is still crazy wild in 3rd world countries, you can also literally buy that shit on the street. You are have no actual data that steam has somehow stopped this
Cool argument. Always knew you were retarded but its good to have a confirmation
Battlefront 2 was so big of a trainwreck that it actually was cited by the Belgian government in their lootbox ban.
Knowing that it's not just protestors or fuckheads yelling at you, but people who actually bought your shit in the past is VERY important.
>Well apparently Metro Exodus sold so poorly on the Epic Game Store that they wouldn't even give out actual sales numbers
Uh oh...
>Metro Exodus sold more on the Epic store than Last Light did on Steam
pcgamesn.com
>stopped this
I wasn't implying Steam 'stopped' piracy, but I did imply that they reduced it enough by providing a good service that it is very lucrative to sell to those markets that were previously considered no-go zones for selling things. China is legitimately one of Steam's biggest consumer bases and nobody would have expected selling things to go well there
2.5x of 20k is still shit user.
>YFW the game comes out and 95% of fans buy it and play it
user there are no sales numbers in that link, just a '2.5x the first week sales of Last Light' and Last Light sold terribly at launch because THQ had just died and the publisher who picked up Last Light to distribute and sell it did almost no marketing
>Thinking Origin, Uplay and W10 aren't spyware
They are proven spyware tho. I haven't seen proof Steam is a spyware yet but honestly it's no surprise. The only good digital store is GOG anyway.
>It’s worth being a little sceptical about this – Steam was a much smaller platform when Last Light launched in 2013 than it is today, and it would seem that Epic is focusing on the latest new release in the Metro series, rather than on its more recent remaster. I’d also suggest that Exodus had a greater marketing push behind it, and didn’t share as much of the darker, more claustrophobic elements that might have made Last Light a harder sell.
Piracy will never be stopped tho, corp shill. And piracy is prevalent everywhere, not just the third world
Steam didn't stopped piracy, but made games for people with less money, more affordable, unlike Tencent, that will never do this, because they don't care about consumers
says the faggot with no argument
You weren't gonna buy this game anyways so fuck off
>Proof
You actually haven't seen shit cause that would then be illegal
>still no official data
>"believe us it sold more"
>meanwhile last light's sales number still have yet to be released
>Pirated Metro Exodus because it was bought into being an exclusive and I couldn't buy it from GMG for a good price like I usually do for my PC vidya
>Did buy Sekiro because it didn't have paid exclusivity and I could by it from GMG for a good price
Yes I definitely am just a dirty pirate who never buys games
>Sucking steams cock this hard
Gabe got you good boyo lol!
I can't completely blame them because like Chris Avellone said, it's entirely up to the publisher and the developer gets no say.
>Bought denuvo
Yikes. Your opinion literally does not matter
>Sekiro
>Denuvo
Based chink tard.
Sekiro isn't a Denuvo-enabled game though
that's it? that's your argument?
ok :^)
>people are upset with gearbox
>not because of Randy being a pedophile
>not because the company is notorious for stealing and short handing people
>it's because of the middle man that they would buy the game in
stupid retard fuck kill yourself
yes im mad
zoomers man.
Imagine if the Steam drones of today were this negative about Half Life 2 being Steam exclusive 15 years ago
Well realistically the top of the list has nothing to do with the consumer, the bottom part does
I didn't know Epic Games created Borderlands
Valve owns and produced the Half Life series. Exclusivity contracts exchange hands between hands of the platform and the publisher, none of which sees development of the product and actively works at the detriment of the consumer.
Valve didn't create Counter Strike. They still made it Steam exclusive to force millions of people to use Steam.
No.
The jew fears the reviews.
Maybe there's something I'm missing but why exactly are people angry at Epic store exclusivity? It's not a big deal to install another launcher. What's the problem here?
none of those things affect me so why should i care?
They bought the IP though so they literally own it. This would have to be something like Epic now owns the boarderlands IP
no but they created the technology that powers it and several other triple A games
>first party game owned and made by Valve
>game neither made or owned by Epic in anyway beside the engine
Wow totally the same
Not to forget the CS was a half life mod
>Now this is epic
sensiblechuckle.gif
Well the original CS was not made by valve
fuck steam
dont they know its wrong to but exclusivity
Sending physical letters, but it's too much effort for most people because they're generally not as upset as they claim themselves to be.
And Valve now owns the rights and IP to the game, anymore High IQ posts lad?
Unreal engine games will most likely end up with timed exclusivity on the store because of the cut
That's stupid as fuck, and just now I understood why Steam considered anti-review bomb measures.
However, in this case it is unlikely to make any difference in terms of sales after all this time.
>implying they don't just get shredded in the mail room
so it's OK when Valve buys up games to distribute exclusively on their client but when anyone else does it it's bad?
Valve bought CS before Steam was ever a thing
Just was pointing out where you were wrong. Please check your facts in the future because saying stupid incorrect shit makes everyone against Epic look fucking retarded. Don't help in this fight if you are a total dumb ass
But Epic doesn't own Borderlands IP.
This
This is the only way to even remotely get their attention, since no other alternatives are present so there is nothing wrong with this
so permanent exclusivity is better than timed exclusivity?
I don't see people whine about BF games not being on steam.
Do you?
Oh boy they did a lot when origin first was announced. You can go look it up, it was nasty just like this shit
Steam drones cried oceans of tears when Origin became a thing and said they would never buy a game on Origin. Must have been a vocal minority because EA hasn't second guessed their decision yet
why are you showing me your cuck porn collection?
ssshhhh
>Anti-Valve shills don't even know that EA-Downloader existed before Origin
KEK
this woman is disgusting
I own old EA titles on steam
Have sex, incel.
Death, amputation, many other unpleasant things. Use your fucking brain.
Don't worry, I fuck your mom every night
>he's after landwhales
You do you dude.
>Dev tells me to go fuck myself in one of the many ways he can
>I tell the dev to go fuck himself in the only way I can
it is certainly a mystery
