Sweeney went full retard and tried to force EGS down everyone's throat while it wasn't ready for another 2 years.

EGS got scared of competing and closed everything off. Microsoft sees profit in becoming omnipresent and opened everything up. If Games as Service dies, it'll be pretty good desu.

Nothing is ever going to change Microsoft's position as the greatest of the four evils of gaming, no matter what.

Fuck off nigger. MS is the reason paid online exists.

Microsoft was afraid of what the Sony Playstation could be capable of in the future, so they jumped into the console race to both combat and keep Sony fighting for the TV, rather than evolving the PS into a fully fledged PC. Their "TV" bullshit a few years ago was them (and Sony) going critical mass retard in thinking the TV was still relevant, even though everybody else was already migrating to PC and Mobile.

Now, Microsoft finally saw Steam as a major threat to their PC dominance due to MS's failure in establishing Windows Store, and Steam's past few years of pushing Linux game compatibility so hard. Instead of fighting a long term no-win battle like what they did with XBX vs PS, they're playing ball with Steam to prevent any significant userbase split off from Windows to Linux.
Epic is not even relevant. They're just constant fuckups in the wrong place at the wrong time, tried some asshole play and failed by pissing off almost everyone.

nah, epic is still making Unreal Engine 4 which is better than ever
only hardcore valvecucks make a big deal about them having to click on a different launcher icon or to wait 6 months to play a few of games. I mean it's not ideal but it's far from the end of the world like how this fanbase pretends. At least epic is leaching less money from those games and pumping their money into other gaming companies.

meanwhile MS is still not making anything worthwhile despite sucking away so much money from the industry

cope more epic rules gaming (pc,xbox,ps4) they have the best engine

>post yfw outer worlds will be included in the gaem pass

Your info is out of date. Epic killed Valve's momentum on Linux gaming by acquiring the partner right out from under them. The push for Linux is effectively dead for now.

Microsoft changed their company policies and gaming department just had to change too, that's it.

Here's a bald German dude to explain it:

microsoft was booed until they finally realized that they are working in a service industry.

Funny enough, most of the servers from epic games are paid with money from fortnite skins.

capable of dying of aids most likely

It's only dead for games that used easy anti-cheat
Regardless, Tim Sweeney can go eat a bullet for doing that just to be malicious.

Microsoft will find one way or another to fuck Steam. Embrace, extend, extinguish. They're embracing it by putting their games on Steam. Then they might add features not available on Steam and finally kill off Steam although this is highly unlikely.

It's true. Just because you're unsuccessful at something doesn't mean you're not trying.

I think what he meant is that Timmy is trying to make people eat all the eggs except nobody even needed to be rescued in this scenario.

Epic has been shit since the 00s
Their last good game was ut99
2k4 aged like milk
Gow killed 3ps cover systems forever
All their 2010s games where literally dogshit until they stuck good by adding pubg to fortnite

People need to realize that Epic and EGS are separate entities. One is a game/engine dev studio and the other is a poor rebranding of wegame.
Epic is fine.
EGS is Chinese garbage.

LOL ...not in this Universe/Dimension.
