S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 is an Epic exclusive

I never had this problem.

>GSC can focus on content now
based fucking epic

They wouldn't have to choose if they'd just fucking crowdfund the thing. STALKER would raise 20-30 million easy.

I still can pirate it right? Really don't care about those zoomer drm platform wars.

If Epic actually shells out the cash to risk funding the game's full development, then I don't mind. I still wouldn't play it because I don't want to touch EGS with a ten foot pole until it's actually a decent store and Epic stopes being a fucking cunt, but that would actually not be a piece of shit "yoink, mine now, fuck you lol" move that they love to pull.

Well it's another free game.

God I wish

Oooh buddy how are going to rape a classic this time?

Maybe, but Death Stranding will 100% be Epic exclusive

wtf am I reading

>STALKER would raise 20-30 million easy.
>Niche as fuck cult series that only as sold as it did thanks to word of mouth and a gazillion million sales
>Raising as much as 20-30 million dollars
Not even Shenmue III or Mighty "Fuck Capcom" Nº9 raised that much money, and those games had a ton more hype.

wolfenstein youngblood just got cracked
seethe more DRM tranny

Anonbro, no...

But those were niche titles that needed to croudfund to even develop the game. STALKER would raise tons more.

Kingdom Come Deliverance raised $15M before it went retail with Deep Silver
Shenmue 3 and Mighty No9 looked like shit that's why they didn't do well.

It'll stop day one piracy and that'll be enough to get /sg/ to buy it which is half their audience

>30 threads a week about how GAME X hasn't been cracked yet after 6 months
Sure thing

crowdfunding is cancer but STALKER could've easily pulled 30 million

Three Kingdoms when

still uncracked bro

Shut the fuck up user, that doesn't fit the agenda

don't care, i'll play it,

FUCKING TRAITOR!

some things are just more important than store wars

This honestly

the butthurt will be immense, enough to cripple the game entirely. does epic games store even support modding?

>it's just a store bro

Yeah, like account hacking and identity theft.

so just how big will the backlash be? i recall the stalker dev looking for a publisher for the game. so what if it turns out that the stalker 2 wouldn't exist if it were not for epic, would people still complain about the buying of exclusivity for games that already exist and are established in development?

>does epic games store even support modding?
No but why would it need to? Workshop was a fucking mistake.

Yes because as mentioned earlier, they could've easily crowdfunded it and got $20-$30 million to develop STALKER 2 without resorting to a publisher in the first place.

fuck off reditor

>stalker 2
>no modding
Why even bother?

>It's okay when Valve vendor locks basic functionality like modding to their platform
Idiot

>imagine unironically believing in this

it's going to be a fun day reading all the hateful and outraged comments over this...

Who cares, none of the original devs are working on the game.

doesn't really matter, it'll take 10 years for the mod scene to make it worth a shit and I'll be dead by then

OLD THING GOOD
NEW THING BAD!

Neither did Clear Sky or Call of Pripyat you idiot
Every STALKER game that has ever released had wildly different devteams

What? Did you think Vostok and 4A come out of thin fucking air?
