None of those are competition to Steam, closest one gets to real competition is GOG and they're way worse than Steam (they also give up the exclusives they make like The Witcher series, which could have actually given them huge market share, but they're currently just barely breaking even)

They bought the intellectual properties and hired the devs. That's buying a company...

Poor Tim he's starting to become delusional.

because the only way in which EGS is competion is through their exclusives, in every other way EGS is an entirely inferior product. When ubisoft and EA of all people can outdo you you know you dun fucked up

Is Sweeney autistic?

It is ok Gabe, we get it. You can't figure out why everyone now hates steam for being stagnant and shit these last few years. The trick is, we just accepted it until better came along.

Why would you do that? You're having a normal day in a normal life, why would you ruin everything by acting like a retarded monkey?

Let's be fair here. Epic's refund policy is the same as Steam's.

China is an insanely large country with insane population even by US standards.
Combine this with the illusion of frequency because you see some of these videos, you mistakenly think these are actually more frequent in China than they are, when in fact car accidents happen in your country just as frequently as well, you are just not aware.

Why do chinks eat dogs?

Chinese people can read Yea Forums, but they can't post because of reCAPTCHA

Yea Forums pass let's you bypass that.

What happened to Netflix is the perfect example for when competition isn't always the best for the customer, there are exceptions.
Americans of course deny and won't acknowledge this, but it's simply fact.

I know, this concept is completely foreign on Yea Forums, but it is what it is.

I have to say, Uplay isn't as bad as I thought it was. I really like how it has separate challenges from achievements and how it automatically uploads all your screenshots and so on. Origin sucks, GOG is great, never tried MStore. Battle.net still seems so barebones despite it being out for ages. It's also TRIGGERING how you can't just hide games you don't want, but then Steam has this issue too. I have so many useless Humble Bundle games thatI just want to remvoe from my library permanently.

Nothing, it was his best attempt at deflection, trying to use the latest buzzword from his recently updated buzzword dictionary they have prepared for the workers.

Nah, chinese drivers really are a danger to themselves and everyone else on the roads.

Competition using exclusives only work with consoles because both Microsoft and Sony actually do try to push their games to be good so that people will be more inclined to buy their console.

And even then Microsoft has pretty much gone full 180.

It's profile maintenance time tranny :)

You actually can do that. Click the support link on the game you want removed and then click "I want to permanently remove this game from my account".

There are plenty of free streaming platforms and the point is still 100% valid because I don't want to have to load up 10 different streaming programs to find the thing I want to watch.

I literally used canistream.it for a while because I had to look up what platforms hosted what movies.

If game platforms have exclusives, I then have to use 10 different launchers to buy games.

Consoles are the extreme of this - you have to buy a physical machine to have access to all of the titles instead of just the title. This is actually a terrible thing but everyone's been conditioned to it over time. I fucking dread every new console generation because I have to either decide between them or pay $1500 for them all.

You're saying what he said was completely fine if he didn't link it? He's the CEO of a fucking company and his name has been used many times in articles relating to epic games, we all know it and he is shamelessly talking up his service while shit talking the competition. I personally didn't have anything against epic before but I'm sure as hell not buying anything for them or using their services after seeing all this shit from him, you'd be stupid to think this doesn't affect the company's reputation in any way.

I love how any pretense of actual argument has been tossed out the window and the Ebin payroll slavs just resort to posting their failing memes.

Don't want to be that guy, but you fucked up majorly by not checking the material before proceeding to use them in your products. I don't understand how you can make that kind of mistake if you are well aware that the material is prone to contamination. Even if you trust your supplier, you can't be that irresponsible.

In an ideal world, separating yourself from the company would permit you to vent as any regular person would, and you'd be held accountable as just any other regular person would. Nowadays it isn't as cut and dry but it still allows you a bit of a wider leeway in what you can say if you have enough charisma, which is still regrettable because journalists froth at the mouth at the thought of catching an inexperienced PR guy in a convoluted web of unrelated tweets.

Was an expat in China for 2 years, and I've seen my fair share of accidents to disagree with you.

China's road culture is far more reckless, and when it comes to 'oh shit' moments, a lot of them sort of freeze up like deer in the headlights like you see in the webms; they don't swerve out of danger or break or anything - they just drive on straight toward their death.

Hell, I was in a car with a chinaman on the passenger seat (NEVER make this mistake in China) and we almost died because a huge truck suddenly appeared around the corner and the chink driver just froze like his time had come. In the moment I had to personally steer the steering wheel to a side and luckily we hit the curb to safely come to a full stop.

There is a difference, they turned those games to be valve property and thus became first party. With that they can do whatever they want, which is not the same a buying timed exclusivity no matter the cost or broken promises

We're not living in a corporatism dystopia either (for now).

Though I'm bringing up CEOs a lot, it stands true for every piece of a company. If a boss fires people due to their prviate beliefs then I have no qualms when insectoids like you jump at his throat for the same reasons.

Stop treating people like brands.

I hear you, I've just gleamed all this information in meetings where this topic gets brought up for a few minutes of panic each time. My part of Quality and Receiving is testing if the parts meet performance specifications so the tests I perform wouldn't detect the contamination, unfortunately.

Publishers and amateur developers have the power to publish anywhere they want. Steam was the most lucrative place to publish in the past since it had the largest audience. You might notice if you actually pay attention that a lot of devs began publishing to GOG and itch.io when they became more viable about four years ago.

And funny enough even games like Metro is not even exclusive to the Epic store, you can also get it at the Microsoft store. Only reason people(kids) seethe about it is because it's not on Steam.

Epic's weakening the case for regulating valve, who desperately need regulated for their shitty business practices. Nobody can compete with steam: a normal company would just haemorrhage money doing it, and Epic is desperately trying to hide that fact by surfing on a wave of dirty fortnite bucks they scammed out of millions of children.

Epic's like that son who can't get daddy's approval

Didn't notice all the companies virtue signalling by showing how friendly they are to gays and all that shit like that to get people to buy their shit? You keep saying insectoid which I'm assuming you're using to refer to China's people (which I'm not by the way) but the whole fucking world does this. People, especially nowadays are overly political faggots who will try to take down others who think differently and it's even more convenient for them than ever now that social media makes it easy to slip up and say things that triggers someone somewhere, and there's a lot of fucking things that trigger people. You seem very sheltered since employees getting sacked for things that they do outside of their jobs isn't even something new or alien to America.

Not defending Epic, but how is it not? It's a tool for competing, even if it's frowned upon.

They take 30% from small-time developers and gradually smaller amounts from games that actually turn a profit. That money goes into maintaining their servers and running their services, which provide more than the embarrassingly bare-bones EGS ever will
>P2P networking for developers to make use of in their games for free. You don't even need to have a game officially hosted on Steam in order to do this, as long ass you have an appid to tie it to

Because it's currently in vogue to act as much like a nigger as possible, and to spew low IQ """""woke""""" left-wing political opinions. That's how they gain the adoration of bugmen, e-thots, and other assorted soi people.

I've been playing a bunch of games on origin so clearly you're wrong. EA premier is perfect for 'renting' a bunch of games that I would otherwise not pay for, most of those games are on steam already yet EA found a way to make them more attractive on their own platform.

In the long run EGS will fall behind stores like origin, the microsoft store (thanks to the xbox pass) and uplay, it'll probably fall behind stadia too. Imagine being so tunnel visioned on steam that you let yourself get blindsided by several companies, that's literally what's happening to epic. If epic doesn't sort their shit out by 2020 they're going to get left behind.

Rou pay now

>epic sale be like

Because they're owned by EA, Ubisoft, Activision and Microsoft who put their platform on life support with all their dirty scam money, like Epic, but get this: Existing=/=competing. Those platforms aren't ripping games off steam and Epic sure as fuck isn't ripping games from them. Stop apologising for valve's monopoly by pointing to little corporate vanity projects that developers need to be bribed into using; valve has no real competition, too much power, and need to be regulated.

Do you think Tim will try to attack all the other companies too? Or is he still obsessed with MUH 30% that almost everyone does but only really smears steam with it.

Do you think you are fooling anyone by labelling competition as coprorate vanity projects?

Oh, same. She's why I watched that Lizzie Borden series. Crazy killer Ricci is the best.

He probably won't considering he only seems to have a hateboner for steam but if he doesn't apply the same treatment to every other store then no one has any reason to use EGS over other stores. We're already seeing people shift to using other stores if the game is "EGS exclusive" but available elsewhere like the new ubisoft games, metro exodus, and the outer worlds. That's going to be EGS' downfall, their whole value proposition is having exclusives, if they don't have exclusives then they have nothing.

The equivalent of a company not actually knowing their market.

It's like they can't compete naturally? And most other stores are glorified launchers for that company's couple of exclusives because of that? Really makes you think.

It's objective fact, steam does not see a cent from most key sales outside the grey market

Can someone name a single steam exclusive game? I seriously cant name one. Even cs, half life and team fortress you can buy in my local store for lower price than on steam.

>Just imagine I swapped the words around in your sloppy low-effort shitpost, I don't want to get my hands dirty.

What does this even mean? Do you think 3rd party games don't sell outside of steam? This tactic will not work in the long term, not only is it expensive as fuck for epic, it's not even permanent. EGS is paying millions for 6 months to 1 year of exclusivity. Imagine banking on not only having low profit margins but also paying for exclusivity that's not even permanent and on top of all that the exclusivity isn't even true exclusivity, it's literally just not on steam.

You and epic will very quickly find out why this strategy is garbage, nothing about it remotely makes sense.

If you prefer Epic Store then go ahead, use it, i will not stop you, and neither should you guys stop him, but what you should stop is shitflinging, and i'm referring to both sides. As long as someone isn't spamming "LE EBIN WIN FOR XDDDD IS SO ASSBLASTED" i see no problem, since the majority prefers to make the choice for themselves, or try to make a choice for themselves, without shitposting.

EGS sales be like "oh shit better remove our game from the store so people cant get our shit for cheap or "raise prices so the discount puts the pricebat the original price"

no, unreal engine

Have you considered that the competitors have just been garbage and they're just now trying to catch up. Valve has been working on steam for like 15 years, their oldest competitors, not counting gfwl (because it died and killed a bunch of games like lost planet 2) are like 7 years old at the oldest and none of them understood what it meant to provide a good service until like 1 year ago maximum.
You're complaining about steam having a large market share but 15 years ago none of those companies tried to provide a good service on PC. Look at the sentiment microsoft and epic had on PC gaming 10-15 years ago, they thought there was no real market for it, how is regulation supposed to fix that?

Imagine living in the middle of nowhere and an ISP comes along and they build their own network, they take you from dailup, to dsl, to broadband, to fiber. What you're saying is they should be regulated because the other ISPs that came along later that can only give you dailup and no one wants to switch to an inferior service. The kind of regulation you're asking for is why americans get absolutely buttfucked by shitty ISPs like comcast and cox while europe and east asia leave america's ISPs in the dust. That kind of regulation can only service to protect terrible services from superior competition.

>"raise prices so the discount puts the pricebat the original price"

They didn't even put their games on PC back then. Look at this shit, does this look like a company that cares about PC gaming to you? Compare this to valve who prioritized PC gaming and the only games they didn't release on PC were arcade games.

>As reported by CVG (via 1UP), in the interview Capps says that six years ago Epic "was a PC company and always had been," with just one PS2 title to its name - a port of Unreal Tournament. But now people complain on the company's forums that they hate the PC. "And now, if you read our forums," he said, "people are saying: 'Why do you hate the PC? You're a console-only company.' And guess what? It's because the money's on console."

>"We still do PC, we love the PC," Capps says, before going on to say how the impact of piracy has "killed" many good developers, forcing them to change their business model.

Is this the kind of company you want to support? What happens if piracy becomes rampant again? Is epic going to go back to their old business model of selling games everywhere EXCEPT PC?

Valve shills are real

Funny how they are currently pushing the PC userbase back to piracy. Valve managed to deteriorate piracy stage by providing a service more convenient than pirating. Epic now locks games to a terrible platform that's very inconvenient to use, making piracy lucrative again.

You know, I have a question. Why the fuck would you ever pay for a single player game if you can just pirate it? Gaben brainwashing is truly strong

Mio negro, passa a salsa

That's the way I see it. I pirated all my shit for years, and still continue to pirate. But ever since steam, I also started buying a fair amount of games, simply because often the convenient of just having the game there on steam more than made up for the cost.

But now if we're going back to this extremely splintered approach where games are all over the place on different launchers and different logins, it's no longer convenient. And if it's no longer convenient, then what's the point in buying at all?

For me it's sometimes just a matter of convenience. If there's a game and it's like 5-10 bucks and I can just have it there in my library and redownload easily at any point without even putting in the minimal effort to worry about torrents, patches, cracks, etc, I'm okay with that. See above.

>brink_release_trailer.webm

You see, this works on multiple levels.

You can call me a shill all you want but back when I first tried to buy digital games steam was the only store that worked for me. GFWL didn't sell to my region and direct2drive wouldn't sell to me either, I could only use steam. Only team was a global digital distributor of games at the time and everyone else turned up far too late.

Epic bringing monopolies to a free market like PC is cancer.

Your image is hilarious, since Steam does not control pricings, does not steal games with exclusivity deals and does not care about the multitude of games getting released on other platforms such as GOG, Key Resalers and all the platforms publishers crated to maximize profits.

Attached: 1550229817416.png (546x985, 227K)

Because it's convenient.
If I want to pirate I have to
>open the torrent tracker
>search for the game
>filter through potential torrents depending on their seeds, languages, how repacked it is and potentially broken, whether it has additional content, and so on
>open a torrent page
>download the torrent file or the magnet link
>download the game to my torrent folder
>mount an image and start the setup, going through all the standard windows of it like picking the installation folder, additional software, and possibly unchecking some asshole boxes that want to install a sponsor software on my PC
And if I have deleted the game and want to play it again some time later I have to repeat every single part of this process.

If I want to play on steam I have to
>open steam
>search for the game
>press purchase
>open my library
>find the game in it
>press install
And whenever I want to play it again I only have to repeat the last three steps.

That is the convenience I value enough to pay for a game.

Normally I operate under the assumption that every company hires shills these days, but I honestly think Valve is the single entity that definitely doesn't. Simply because they never move a muscle for ANYTHING, for better or worse. Gabe is lazy and fat and probably doesn't even bother putting in the effort of paying for shills.

No, that's not what this is about. It's about the fact that Steam has been the de facto digital download platform for well over a decade now, and people don't want to have to deal with multiple fucking platforms and launchers for every special snowflake game. You can complain that this isn't fair to newer platforms, but that's just first-mover advantage and network effects for you. I don't gain anything whatsoever from having PC being splintered into a fuckton of podunk little storefronts.

Then why don't you buy it on Epic as well you fucking drone? It's just as easy.

Attached: big-gabe-tiny-tim.jpg (800x637, 112K)

Fuck off shill, he literally explained to you that it's about CONVENIENCE.
You know what's not convenient? Juggling multiple launchers. Fuck off.

For starters EGS has fuck all for games in their store, no blockbusters, barely any indie gems, just a ton of shovelware and shitty exclusives

At this point I am fairly certain the pro epic store shills on here are paid chinese slaves. "Why don't you buy it twice."

I think we've reached peak "your argument is showing your agenda" at this point.

>if your so lazy, why don't you install another launcher that is far inferior in terms of service and selection also requiring you to maintain another library?
Not that fag, but did you even think your post through before typing it?

Yes I know people don't want to deal with multiple platforms hence the hate. It's understandable, but most faggots refuse to said that. I will never understand why pc gamers are such a faggots

Because it's inconvenient to install another software, it's inconvenient to register in it, it's inconvenient to track what games I have on which platforms, and it's extremely inconvenient to use the epic store due to its poorly designed interface. Piracy option is more convenient than Epic option, so I'm going to pirate all their exclusive games I'm interested in, and so will many others.

The funny part is that they probably used bots to "correct" the like / dislike ratio and it's still more than twice as much.

Unironically don't get too cocky epicbro.

Been to a steam sales thread ever? Visit one now.

That you think that can be turned around says it all. I have neither the time nor the energy to explain to you what a monopoly is... But I'll give you a clue... Looks a lot like epic games store policy.

The image he posted is actually a edit of a anti epic image

Yeah, I didn't said that. You're kind of a retard

You don't have an argument either, 1/3rd of your list isn't available, and another 1/3 are shitty clones, which leaves Hades and DUDE FREE GAMES.
Shill harder.

shit like lootboxes and skins came about to directly counter piracy, it gives people a reason to not pirate games and it makes money

I don't think that, he thinks that.

>all that shovelware
Compared to Epic which is at least all finely curated. They're expecting a 100 games a year which will all be good.

What does steam have?

Ask niggers and honorary niggers like Slavs, Turks and the Irish.

>epic
>finely curated
now that's epic

>What does steam have?
Halo
Gears 5
Doom Eternal
Bannerlords
several GotY entries

>dabs on Steam

It's still odd to me that "dabbing" is a big thing on Yea Forums now. It seems like the kind of thing that Yea Forums would have hated in the past.

Why would you even need a shopping cart
buying groceries is like buying games.
you buy max 1 meal, then finish it and decide if you want to buy another

I had a relative who worked in a dehydrated fruit company attempt to buy fruit from China. They promised not to use a harmful preservative but when it came time to purchase it tested off the charts and this company had to walk away.

Yea Forums uses it ironically to piss others off.

All goths need pumping.

Shit game
>Satisfactory which is basically better Factorio
Not really plus that's like comparing grapefruit and oranges
>WWZ which is better L4D
Not at all
>Yeah nah. You're brainwashed.
If he's brainwashed i don't even want to know what you are

hnng my fucking dick thank you based user

We have reached a new level of shitposting.

So it's just an ironic meme, like that "le monkey face" thing from years ago?

You are welcome.

You're right, however steam drones don't work like that. They buy up to 50 at a time to never play them, why you may ask. Because steam is not a storefront, it's a cult at this point

>for a limited time
>1 year
in video games time that might as well be an eternity

>you buy max 1 meal, then finish it and decide if you want to buy another
Sometimes i wonder how people like you make it through the fay

>What does steam have?
It has 1000 games a year, 100 will be good, 800 will be shit, 90 will be mediocre and 10 will be hidden gems that never would have passed Epic's shitty criteria meaning we'd never have got to see them if the sore was "finely curated."

Yea letting everything in means letting all the shit in, but it's allowed so many hidden gems to shine.

Fuck finely curated.

stop lying you retard. I've been to 'nam and the drivers in 3rd world countries are abysmal. the numbers dont lie. The amount of accidents I've seen and how little people help (they even laugh at people spitting their teeth out on the street) the survivors of the accident is shocking. communism is a curse.

Epic sale be like
>Oops we didn't actually communicate to the developers at all about what would go on sale and for how much. No you can't keep that SHUT IT DOWN NOOOOO

Pretty much, yeah.

It has 8 000 games a year. And maybe 5 games worth playing each year. The rest is shit

>Ubisoft
>EA
The games are shit no need for reviews

Your buttshit is showing.

This.

Meanwhile Epic has 30 games but ALL of them are worth playing. Quality over quantity drones.

I didn't even know Epic Store had a summer sale right now.

Winnie the Pooh

I dunno men. I respect epic for going against publishers. Also since when valve fags are siding with the big bad publishers?

I actually like Lemon key face though

Epic be like
>Our games will NEVER go on sale, it devealues them.
>Uh, our numbers are not looking so great. Let's boost them with a month-long sale!
And then 1/4 of their entire library got removed because they didn't bother to tell the publishers.

#justEpicthings

the government surveillance is only to make sure they don't try to protest or oppose the government. They don't give a shit about anything else as long as they stay in power

I spent more on the Epic sale than the steam sale

it really is that bad

Let me guess. Makeup + smoking?

>Meanwhile Epic has 30 games but ALL of them are shit.
Fixed.

For a little bit when I was 10. What's wrong with you, user?

Steam is a trash can of game development. Everyone fucking know this, so I don't understand what is your problem. Also post your "hidden gems"

Yeah, masterpieces like Fornite, right, ching chong?

>not morticia

steam: balsamic vinegar
epic: rutabaga

Yeah I was actually going to day 1 this game for real, but fuck them for doing this. Maybe I'll still remember them in a year, maybe I won't.

Also piece of advice: if you're going to base your game on a timeless right wing icon like Lovecraft, maybe not publish it on the shitty left wing platform.

There were so many others that people don't even remember anymore. Impulse for instance.
You can easily flip that around though, all of these stores only managed to remain alive because they had exclusives. GoG is a bit different but it still effectively offers "exclusive" old games not available on other platforms. Platforms that tried to compete solely on pricing or features have all sunk.
Clearly if Epic wanted to have a successful platform they had to secure exclusives one way or an other.

No Christina Ricci was my first waifu without knowing what that was.

Yeah cause you're a pedo

And epic is the garbage bag stealing all the garbage from steam and leaving steam with drips of sewage

Fortnite is the best BR out there. So in a sense it is a masterpiece in its genre

>Siding with publisher
>For criticising someone for being anti consumer by not owing up to their mistakes like even the most basic consumer protection law obliges you to
If a seller accidentally asks for a lower price and the transaction is already done, it's not the customer's responsibility to return anything anymore.

Why is his profile picture such low-quality? Is Tim even real?

Epic games buys most of the games on epic games.

>Meanwhile Epic has 30 games but ALL of them are worth playing and were supposed to be on Steam before sweeney offered them a bag of shekels to not sell there
Your point? Your exclusives are guaranteed to end up on steam later anyway, Xiao

its actually him lol

>Outer Wilds - Game of the Year btw
>The latest obsidian garbage
You're thinking of Outer WORLDS user, not outer wilds

Cool, if you think that then why are you here. Oh wait you're just coping, kys faggot

Go back in time about 15 years.

Work on that impulse control user. I haven't bought a game at release in a long time. Why do that when I can wait a year or so and get the full game plus extensions plus bugfixes on sale?
I guess the only time it makes sense to buy at release is for multiplayer games but who cares about that.

This is correct

Of fuck you're right
Outer wilds seems alright

Do you millennials even know what the word "cope" means or how it should be used?
Using "coping" by itself means nothing, you illiterate autismos.
Do you not understand your own language?

This image is like a social commentary on China

Tim is the best thing that could happen to gaming industry. Because of him we know that steam drones are salty that pc is an open platform and people can sell their stuff where they want. Steam drones dream about closing pc with steam as it's only store. Steam fags are just crypto console fags

>gee why is this mother and her kids taking a fucking cart to buy grocieres? LMAO so fucking useless

As retarded as your post is, you were right about one thing: Tim is the best thing that could happen to the gaming industry. He reminds us that a service as professional and generous as Steam shouldn't be taken for granted.

He managed to kill 2 people. Which is amazing considering he couldn't shoot shit at a shooting range

>narancia vs formaggio

>Generous
>Professional

Good laugh mate, good laugh

One store has shopping carts, the other one hasn't. Checkmate, nigga.

Taiwanese Square Massacre

For every time you say steam drone you lose ten credits of social score.

>I don't know how to say this without being comically racist
>giving a shit about muh racism

Chinese didn't know how to drive for generations. They're literally just learning now how to drive. Hence they're shitty drivers, although their culture of not giving a shit about their own doesn't help. Worst part is that they bring their shitty drivers everywhere else too.

How cute, Hiro, but that won't stop me from still posting stuff to get the chinks banned.

it's another shit indie dev that's mad that his 2deep4u indie platformer (it's in black and white!) got overlooked on Steam and is now trying to get featured on the Epic Store even though they will never sell his garbage on there

Fucking roasties.

She'd be a legendary fuck

roastie getting toasty

I love that every time a game does this, they try and pretend that they are doing it for the customer because of how great the experience is on EGS and not just because Epic paid them money not to put it on steam.

Yeah, epic store is a lot of things. But it's not garbage dump like steam

There's also this amazing vid he released of him practicing:

why does he look so much like a sectoid?

Steam makes money from doing nothing, they don't even fix simple bugs in their store.

>Steam not providing keys, i.e. the possibility to download games through Steam, for games they can‘t sell themselves
Truly horrible, companies are know to provide services for free, especially one of their core services that is a major part of their revenue.

Epic is private, not public.
