That's actually rather impressive.

EA did nothing wrong though
>Became the most hated company in the industry in less than a year
Yea Forums still buys games made in Unreal Engine 4 like Mordhau and Octopath Traveler
Origin actually managed to be a proper competing service offering something Steam doesn't (gameflix subscription)

Hades price was actually raised DURING the sale, not before
Kekekekek
They might be fuckers but they still haven't reached EA's level. I'd rather have this stupid "timed exclusive" shit where I don't feel any remorse for pirating because my copy has already been paid for than not being able to get games at all because EA just shuts down any studio that can't keep up with their stupid demands
>proclaim there won't be any sales on your store

What a trainwreck, Jesus Christ. Those people are fucking clueless.
that's illegal in all first world countries that have some consumer dignity left
Epic wishes they were as bad as EA.
Someone post the graveyard.
You know the one.
its illegal, im sure of it, someone should check the EULA of Epic store, just to be sure and denounce them with the authorities if possible.

The Tiananmen Square protests, commonly known in mainland China as the June Fourth Incident (Chinese: 六四事件, liùsì shìjiàn) or Six four, were student-led demonstrations in Beijing in mid-1989. More broadly, it refers to the popular national movement inspired by the Beijing protests during that period, sometimes called the '89 Democracy Movement (Chinese: 八九民运, bājiǔ mínyùn). The protests were forcibly suppressed after the government declared martial law and sent in the military to occupy central parts of Beijing. In what became known as the Tiananmen Square Massacre, troops with assault rifles and tanks fired at the demonstrators trying to block the military's advance towards Tiananmen Square. Estimates of the death toll vary from several hundred to thousands.

This shit is god tier desu, I know people will meme about paying to rent games but back in the snes days I used to rent games almost every weekend just to try out shit.
I'm not sure how steam would pull off something like that but I feel like they're missing out.
>I can 100% guarantee I'm whiter than your families genes have been in about 4 generations Amerimutt
Nobody cares user.
ok
I mean if there's that one Origin game you want to try, 10 bucks is gonna beat 60 bucks any day, then just unsubscribe if there's nothing again.
>No "Time played" tracker on games.

Imagine a store that doesn't even have a fucking shopping cart.

It's fucking embarrassing can't wait for the nukes to fly no hope...

Oof
In comparison to Epic they're saints.
if I see a user saying epic is owned by a Chinese company I assume those anons are rebublitards. using derogatory terms to insult said nationality and people born and raised in said nationality whether Asian or not.
ok chink
>a user
>rebublitards
thanks for confirming the only way to defend this shitty store is if you're retarded, chinese, receiving a paycheck, or any combination of the three
>Mean words against asians bad

it is no wonder your race is dying out. Why should I as a school deny admission to you or anyone else compete for getting a spot if you can't don't blame it on an Asian or other race.
>post on mainstream social media forum

Why is it that burgermutts can't separate culture and nationalism from race and biology?
>that flag
Nice try EA. Epic is just louder right now, but their track record of bullshit is still years behind you.
What happened? They announced a sale and fucked up?
They started a sale of everything on the store without consulting majority of publishers involved.
why do you record your fapping session user?
Yeah, but they're still getting their 88% of that so why should they complain?
tim swine
send them to gulag
Because of extremely basic concepts like product devaluation. Some of the disounted stuff just went up for preorders.
Say it in Han now.
>pre-purchase sale
Okay, that is hilarious.
what is so funny?
>takes 12% because they don't spend a dime on the store software
Considering the state of their store, they don't even deserve those 12%.
i don't play pc because fuck building desktops, but why do you shit on Epic games?
This isn't a console war where you have to pay 300+ dollars for a game you just have to install a client. Besides don''t you all pirate anyway
I'm pretty sure it's federally enforced - as in, it's illegal in all of the US.
>it's another seething steamfag mad that there's market competition
This is what you get for not pirating
t. Zoomzoom play Rocknite
Business practice and quality.
EA faggot shill
chinks are very racist to other people too and they have no souls so its ok to shit on those dog eating gutter oil drinking manlet
Most hated just by steam fags. Console gamera couldn't care less, this combined with pc gamers actually using the Epic Store means people whining are the minority.
I'm German, you complete and utter moron.
No one outside of Yea Forums's braindead echo chamber actually hates Epic. You've unironically drank too much /pol/-aid and it's turned you retarded, you don't even know what the fuck an opinion is anymore, you are beyond Binky's help.
Steam has a bunch of built-in features that benefit customers and devs. Epic's specifically competing them by throwing money at devs while offering no beneficial features. It's like having Dollar Store suddenly getting a huge subsidy and using it to go on the attack against Wal-Mart while still being a shitty Dollar Store.
For an "American," your English is horrible.
Found the Chink. Why do you guys even shill here? The only people who agree with you are other Chink shills
Walmart is pretty shitty too though.
>people attack Epic
>must be steam shills!
The absolute state of brainless Chinese
I use Origin, thank you
I like this post. It made a point and used a few buzzwords to enhance it / make it more entertaining instead of the typical "buzzword buzzword no u buzzword" reply.
that's what happens when you shill 24/7 and you're not even subtle about it
People get annoyed by your constant obvious shilling
for small towns walmart was a godsend but in the end it killed small stores and we all realized how much it sucks
Based, but it's not burgers that are your enemy
>People defend Epic
>Must be Chinese!
The absolute state of Yea Forums. Seems like just about everyone on here is Chinese then.
wish we had flags so we could see who shills for Tencent so much
Same with Steam
I don't understand why they thought they could reduce the prices without at least informing the developers first.
>but in the end it killed small stores
Sounds like Steam then.
Monopolies at work.
Dumb zoomer
>Hated
Hated by retarded Steam purists maybe. To pretty much everybody who isn't a mouthbreather it's yet another launcher they have to download to play games. There's no incentive to download the game on Epic and it's a shitty store, but I'd be happier if I could just go buy DVDs/Blu-Rays with games on it instead of being forced to launch Steam every time I wanted to play a game.
>Seems like just about everyone on here is Chinese then
>everyone shills for Epic here
nice try delusional faggot
>being this chinky
>uses epic gaymes store
The absolute state of (You).
There's only one employee on EGS and he thought Tim made deals with all the developers and publishers of the store (6 at most).
>people complain about epic being anti-consumers
>epic literally hands out money so you can get games for cheaper, even preorders

We hate steam but this is making it hard to like epic too.
>90% of Yea Forums hates Epic
>Epic shills keep trying to force it
why? will you ever admit being btfo from here?
>I'd be happier if I could just go buy DVDs/Blu-Ray
There was a business that tried this for indie titles for PC. Failed hard. Also, no publisher would allow a physical release with no account based DRM, unless the developers asks for it and has lobby to actually enforce it.
Look user, another Chinese person! You can't be fucking real man. Believe it or not, there are people not giving a fuck about Steam or Epic, and they speak out in these threads, and they all don't suddenly become Chinese because they voice their opinion.
If I care about getting a game cheap I'll just pirate it.
When I buy a game if it's not a physical copy then I'm buying it to support the devs.
If I don't want to support the devs or the store that they're selling on, I'm not buying the game, I'll just pirate it.
Hence why I rarely buy western games.
As German with a long heritage and a freaking Family Banner created aroubd the time my city was founded, I couldn't care less if you call me chink. I am just kind of amused by your insane paranoia.
Epic will never get cheaper than steam third party key-sellers.
Zurück nach Düsseldorf mit dir
What game, user?
I'm going to pirate Sinking City, then I'm going to look into finding out how I can mail the money directly to the devs.
I'm going to just flat out pirate Phoenix Point though. I hate it when people use kickstarter and then go exclusive because of publisher mandates.
Difference is, Steam has actually done more to help it's market in 16 years than Walmart could in lifetimes. It has kept me and many others from pirating, funds go directly to the publishers and developers(even if Valve takes a cut to fund it's own services and servers). Sure, you could say that it monopolized digital distribution, but it didn't become as viable as it is now in an instant and there's still plenty of dogshit launchers that come with games bought on it so that's not entirely the case.
>I'm German
Alright so you're a nigger or mudslime, thanks for clearing that up!
I've requested a refund from them twice and still no response its been over 14 days so now i can't get my refund, its obviously done on purpose so they don't have to refund.
EA WAS NEVER GOOD!
Epic would be more hated by normies if dumb /pol/zoomers didn’t make Steam look bad with their retarded racism. Epic has been shit for a long time and that’s why they even needed Chinese money in the first place. If anything China is simply propping up their corpse for a little longer. Don’t blame China for the slimy antics of the anglos like Pitchford and Sweeney and Deep Silver.
Valve also doesn't go out of the way to prevent competitors from entering the market by denying them access to goods.
EA will never look good. I would literally, LITERALLY, rather burn my money then pay the same amount EA for game.
Ask your card company to charge back, especially give them proof you asked for refunds. Banks don't like it when others fuck around with their clients money.
Don't forget steam keys.
It was really fun when they implemented it on /pol/ there where whole treads being same-fagged hard. The funniest one to me was that one jew-hate thread which had around 50% Iranian flags.
Was zur Hölle soll ich denn in Düsseldorf? Nordish by nature senpai.
>Ebin is such a big target that Yea Forums is defending EA now
But no one wants threads to be constantly derailed by racist amerimutts and anglos
Fuck you cunts.
Epic might be bad but EA has consistently killed the most franchises out of any publisher. At least Epic leaves UE4 alone.
Because that's what kept them in business. You have a very shallow understanding of attachment and product association. Normally I don't advocate for taking business classes in college, but I think taking one will actually benefit you. Think about it, user. You can only grow.
Nah, Epic is now worse.
I will never forgive EA for murdering Westwood, but at this point if EA takes Bioware and DICE out back and puts a bullet in them it'd be a mercy killing.
The modern western industry is largely shit, if EA is fucking that industry over then as far as I'm concerned they're doing the right thing.
well they killed unreal and unreal tournament in their sleep
unironically this
Did they even confirm Unreal is finally dead, or is it in limbo now?
At least those were their own creations. Not someone else's that they bought and then killed. Also how is UT dead? It is the perfect playground for UE4 beginners and a community that creates stuff on their own.
in the limbo of the dead
Dead. And the ongoing success of Fortnite makes sure it stays dead.
UT3 hasn't had an update in years, I'm afraid. Epic is too busy sucking off the Chinese and creating more Fortnite skins to care about fixing it. Plus, no one plays it anymore. UT2k4 and UT99 are populated enough, but 3 is fucking dead. The franchise has been in purgatory for years brother.
leftists hate trump and they still live in america
really makes you think
>UT3

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH THEY ARE TAKING MY VIDEO GAMES!!!

trustpilot.com
Where do you get that information from bud? Your circle of friends?
That isn't denying competitors access to goods. That's like saying having Dark Souls on Xbox is Microsoft denying goods to Sony and PC. Making Demon's Souls PS3 exclusive is denying goods to competitors.
Speaking of UT3: it's unplayable now, right? If I remember correctly they required you to make a Gayspy account, and Gayspy is no more.
It's almost like migrating to a new country entirely is a pain in the ass and a ton of hoops to jump through. It's easier for me to leave and live in the EU because I'm a citizen and my parents are as well, but ultimately my family is what keeps me here. Once you've actually attempted to move to and assimilate into a new culture and country entirely, get back to me.

>Rest of the positive reviews are moms talking about how their little minges love Fortnite
Fucking kek, always knew it was consoleniggers and mobilefucks defending this joke of a store.
Fuck Epic, I hope they fail. Not because they dare to compete with Steam, it's because they are being so shitty while doing so.
This. What braindead nigger actually thought that Epic would be a good competitor when all it has is enough money to bribe exclusives over?
For fuck's sake there STILL isn't a shopping cart among everything else in what's supposed to be a storefront.

>-looking towards the future and being super fair to developers
By putting their games on sale without asking them?
They were paying the full price to those developers and removed them from the sale after they asked. It could have been handled better by having an opt in for sales but that's hardly bad considering they pay the sale cut while steam doesn't.
This makes the chink seeth
Probably works for Paradox. Their games got pulled cause they didn't want to participate in the sale.
UT4 was confirmed dead by Epic a few months ago, same time when they announced all their game devs would move to Fortnite.

Have you heard a single good word about Epic that isn't from a blatant shill that is ignoring the facts? Or are you a retarded bugman too?
Yes, now fuck off and lurk more.
