Why people hate this?
Hunter Butler
Juan Young
Luke Myers
Cause looks like they gonna take Sonny's ps5 exclusives
Josiah Hill
there are no games contractually exclusive to steam
Blake Russell
The UI is worse and it's pretty barebones yet.
Nathan Thompson
no games
Brandon Gomez
Because it's a financial power play. They can talk about the better percentage cut devs get on EGS all they want, the real reason people are going to EGS is because of the ludicrous amount of money Epic offers them in exclusivity deals.
People would rather get a smaller cut of profits but gain many, many more potential players through Steams massive userbase, it's just that big exclusivity check in the end.
Mason Foster
Cus GoG is the best
Robert Rogers
fuck off chink
Angel Davis
It's almost like these Chinese-hired shills have to come up with dishonest arguments just to prop up their shit or something.
Owen Reed
Chinks and Jewry. Tencent can suck my cock I'm not using their service or encouraging last-minute exclusivity deals that fuck over customers.
Nathan Peterson
Because it can't import already existing game installs and rather makes me delete it to then download it over again.
Hudson Perez
Because Epic is essentially controlled by Tencent and the EGS scans your computer for "integrity" and "user statistics". Do you think giving a Chinese company access to your information is a smart idea?
Asher Johnson
primitive interface, lack of features and forced exclusives
Chase Myers
Tienamen square, great revolution, etc etc
Parker Richardson
Why do you talk in broken English? Is it because you're Chinese? Fucking bug.
Gavin Richardson
>Do you think giving a Chinese company access to your information is a smart idea?
Yes. And I'm not just saying that because of the metaphorical gun at my head. I'm saying it because they've got my family. Please help.
Jonathan Lopez

Just throw away their chink phones and buy them iPhones.
Liam Bennett

Riiiiight.
Adam Hernandez
>muh china
guys stop that it makes you look like retarded boomers
there are plenty of legitimate reasons to dislike epic and not addressing them just lets people look at the argument and assume you are just being racist and that there is nothing wrong with epic
Jonathan Moore
>Use Steam
>Literally never have a problem purchasing games
>Use Epic once
>Card denied and account gets locked
>Takes like an hour to get account unlocked and finally purchase the game
>Credit Card info stolen like 2 days later
Elijah Gomez
You best start believin' in boomer stories, user. You're in one!
Aiden Davis
Justin Kelly
Surely they must be losing some money buying all those exclusives for millions each time right? How long until they dial it down?
Jose Lee
S-STOP USING STEAM!! COMPETITION IS G-GOOD!!
Jason Adams
> chinese are literally in the process of invading and overtaking Australia
PLEASE FUCKING GOD HELP US
Adam Butler
Fortnite money + Chinese government money. It pretty much does grow on trees for Epic.
Isaac Mitchell
>in the process
They already own the majority of the country, and have most of the government in their pocket. That's not in process, that's finished.
Ethan Rodriguez
Trump has literally never said anything bad about chinese immigrants
Tyler Rogers
Fortnite is dying. Sooner or later the Fortnite bucks will run dry, meaning Epic would either have to raise their own cuts, or have Tencent bail them out to keep the store supported. They can't break even forever on Fortnite alone.
Michael Hall
Honestly, the only things that bug me are the dishonesty they're operating with and the fact that they brought console war type bullshit to PC with what they're doing. Sweeney kept going on about how he wants to bust the "monopoly" steam has and how he wants a PC market with more choice, and then he proceeds to go "oh but you can only buy these games on our store, get fucked." At least admit you just want to beat steam and that you would gladly take a "monopoly" if you had the power to make your store the only one worth a shit. Don't bullshit me. Also, multiple launchers is a pain in the ass. I stopped buying Ubisoft shit because I didn't want to deal with uplay, same with origin.
Brody Lewis
Everyone is crying about games not being sold on Steam, but the real issue is that EGS made games that were multiplatform in their past installments (e.g. Borderlands, Metro) Windows-exclusives and now I can't even play them.
Jacob Bailey
I can't believe there are still "people" that reply seriously to this retard.
Grayson Lewis
I hate it because they're just trying to replace Steam's monopoly with their own, it's not going to benefit me in any way nor is it going to make video games better.
Easton Williams
Epic makes a gangload off Unreal licenses. Its not just games either, the medical industry and a shitload of others use it. Fartnite might have made them some cash but it isn't their only income source.
Jose Sullivan
Same. Fuck ubisoft and their shitty launcher.

Has he even really said/done anything to non-illegals? Last I checked illegals(ie, the ones who shouldn't even be in the country in the first place) are the main thing he goes after, and even the most heinous shit towards them people cry about(the camps) have been around since Obama, so Im not sure why everyone picked now to start crying about it.

1. Splitting games between platforms

Guess it's because of the fact that Epic offered to many devs exclusivity deals and they accepted them.
I mean, if you legally agree to something via a contract, it's all on you honestly.
Also, uh, people probably also don't like switching from launcher to launcher, I guess.
Ethan Murphy
Elijah Reed
I am curious how the fuck Australia let that happen?
Landon Morgan

steam drones aren't people
Camden Phillips
Because exclusivity is very anti-consumer by preventing competition .
and also fuck China, Tiananmen Square massacre, free Tibet
Adam Jackson
Hi chink shill. Still an esl I see?
Daniel Jenkins
Because its not steam and they cant show their games to their ((game communitys))
Aiden Anderson
no exclusive 3rd party games*
but yes this is the main reason to hate the epic jews because they steal platform rights to 3rd party games
James Smith

I've seen this "I know you are but what am I" defense from epic drones so often it's a little sad.
Adam Phillips
Bc it's trash you dumb chink faggot
Gavin Edwards
I fucking hate splitting my library. I already fucking hated Steam when it came out and only started using it in like 2011, and then there was Origin and uPlay and more, plus older ones like BattleNet. Fuck all these launchers, I will tolerate one but that's it. The only way Timmy Tim Tim can get me to move to Epic is to completely destroy all the other launchers and all their games and hijack PC gaming.
Nathan Johnson
desu beign this upsted about launchers is retarded
if a launcher has the game you want to play you install it and play the fucking game, the game you were gonna install on the first place is probably more than 10 gb how the fuck are you gonna get annoyed at 500mb of launcher
Jack Nelson
Just get GoG Galaxy 2 and dilate.
Matthew Martinez
>use another launcher to like all the other launchers
Pass, I use GOG and Steam and that's enough for me. I have accounts for every storefront besides Epic for exclusives and I'm happy with my current setup.
Jordan Martinez
GoG Galaxy 2 literally puts all your games from other launchers in one library.
Colton Ramirez
i honestly don't understand the big deal, but i don't play on pc
the store has less features and is generally worse than steam, but so what? you can have multiple launchers. devs make more money from epic, so it makes sense for them. eventually they will get more features for the store too as it grows.
just really weird that everyone on the internet can rally to hate this pretty normal business, yet now no one blinks an eye at having p2w free games and locked mtx content in full priced games.
Ryder Ward
the left can't meme
Caleb Cox
>you can have multiple launchers
Not if the game is exclusive to the shit launcher.
Nicholas Garcia
Who said anything about partisan politics? Pretty sure any redblooded American can agree on this one.
Landon James
because you faggots won't shut up and stop shilling it
otherwise i might've eventually given it a shot because once upon a time epic made good games just like valve
but now, out of spite for you FAGGOT SHILLS, i will never be using this product

what features are you missing on if you play on something that isn't steam other than your empty steam friendlist
Jose Cook
A shopping cart.

Liam Kelly

Jaxson Cook
>corporate wars
Jesus Christ, how can you stoop so low. Both steam and egs are anti-consumerist as fuck. It's either GoG or fitgirl for me and so should it be for any sane person
Alexander Moore
Theres a reason why no one cares (or at least, nowhere near as much) when a game is exclusive to Battle.net or Origin. Its because the exclusive games on those are from the company that owns the launcher, and thus, expected.
Epic Games exclusives are mostly through money offers to third-parties, often made at unexpected moments. Many of these games even had steam pages before these deals were made. And it doesn't help that Epic Games Launcher is dry of features.
Jeremiah Gray
Noone cares because there is only a handful of games.
Leo Russell
>wash why epic not having bad consumer feature
Gee wondering why steam drone
Isaac Gonzalez
>the sheer panic when you have to go through a different launcher to launch a game
you guys make literally 0 argument why would you give a shit at what point they sign a contract or how they acquire their exclusives
Asher Reed
at this point i just hate tim sweeney, doesnt even matter if the launcher gets magically fixed overnight
i will forever shit on epic
he did this
Bentley Barnes
A launcher which doesn't eat 30% of the cpu for doing nothing.
A launcher which isn't spyware.
A store where one can actually see if the game is any good before buying it.
A store which allows one to choose what games to play instead of having epic filter all devs they don't like.
How about epic starting to do something for the players for once instead of the devs?
Thomas Hernandez
Cloud saves, integrated game forums where i can search for help with technical issues, steamworkshop, integrated drivers for gamepads other than xbox ones.
Caleb Gutierrez
Way to completely miss my point.
Samuel Ross
I find the user interface and browsing games to be awful, it desperately needs tags and other Steam features to find hidden gems, it also lacks many features that its competition has so the discounted games and free giveaways are the only thibg going for it.
Retards here will claim that since its a chinese company you would be indirectly sucking Winnie Poohs dick even when Steam is filled with more chinkshit.
Henry Carter
>Trying to paint something every storefront ever has had since launch as a bad thing
Because why actually admit that the lack of a shopping cart is a flaw in your beloved little Steam competitor when you can just say that you TOTALLY didn't want to buy several games at the same time anyway.
Look, let's be frank here, supporting a competitor to Steam and all is good and all, but nobody's forcing you to pretend that the lack of a shopping cart is supposedly a good thing when it's clearly not. You don't have to pretend like you think shopping carts are suddenly bad because Steam has them while EGS doesn't. This kind of behavior is precisely why Steam "drones" refuse to take Epic fans seriously.
Michael Fisher
The shopping cart devalues your purchases, because it creates the illusion of just throwing everything into a pile. Without a shopping cart, you value individual purchases more.
Ryan Gonzalez
Hell, they don't even do things for the devs.
Dominic King
They need to make it so when you go grocery shopping, you're only allowed to buy one thing at a time.
Cooper Wilson
It's an inferior storefront and the additional money actually goes to the publisher instead of the developer, leading to situations where the developers themselves are the last to know that the game they'd been working on for years has now become a platform exclusive.
So by that logic wouldn't Epic prioritise having a shopping cart so that people make multiple purchases with little real thought and therefore they make more money?
Sebastian Hernandez
something something sense of pride and accomplishment
Ayden Myers
Exactly! And the lack of any tag or search features just makes the experience of finding a new game even more epic (pun intended LOL)! Is there anything that feels better than the tension of scrolling through the entire front page of the store just to find the one game you're looking for? I think not!
Xavier Nguyen
You can't value any purchases when they block your account from buying games after having to buy multiple consecutively.
Luke Taylor
I don't care about the Chinese stuff, but all EGS can offer over Steam is forced exclusivity, which is a shitty anti-consumer practice that should stay the fuck away from PC market. In literally every single other metric, it provides worse service than Steam and just introduces more hassle where it's not needed by forcing you (unless you pirate, that is) to use yet another game launcher. Origin was bad enough and you can ignore Uplay altogether once you've made an account if you buy Ubisoft games on Steam, it then just launches alongside the game and basically doesn't force you to use it at all.
Parker Smith
The damage control is strong in this one, it seems. Does your graphics card decrease in value just because you also happen to decide to buy an e new SDD at the same time? Does your lobster decrease in value because you buy a case of red wine at the same time? If your answer is yes, then you definitely have issues.
Thomas Ward
It's associated with Fortnite and all they're doing is duping companies into releasing their games on their platform under the guise of paying them more.
Also the CEO is Jeffrey Dahmer.
Elijah Nguyen
So how many months longer are those epic exclusives gonna stay exclusive?
Ethan Miller
cpu problem is fair
spyware problem is really fair
you can't understand if a game is good by reading some retarded review on steam
last one i don't really understand since no one i choses what you play except you unless you mean that there aren't many games which is true but those games you probably find on steam
cloud saves it's kinda fair but you can't make a big deal out of it
integrated game forums it's kinda fair but it's more of a commodity you've got google you're 3 more clicks away from forums
steamworkshop doesn't really make sense if the games don't support mods
gamepad drivers is actually pretty fair
sorry user, what did you meant?
Brayden Collins
>taking a shitposting faggot's bait seriously
You're dumber than he is
Jace Wilson
Did you know that there are literal non-American citizen Chinese agents working in top secret USA weapons labs? Did you know that in most USA college campuses had propaganda agencies that are directly funded by the Chinese communist party?
China has been playing both economic and social war against the USA for a long time now. It's time for the Americans to wake up to this reality.
Nicholas Sullivan
I own about 32 games on epic games and I have to scroll through them because I can only view them as big thumbnails, showing only about 9 at a time.
On steam, I can have almost fifty on screen at a time thanks to having a list option.
I'm not among those that want to boycott epic games, but I can definitely understand why people aren't fans of its launcher.
Juan Price
sup
Leo Martin
Being a gamer should be grounds form permanent ban.
Austin Hill
>you can't understand if a game is good by reading some retarded review on steam
Exactly. There are hundreds of reviews, all of tem ranked by how recently they were placed, how long the reviewer played the game, how many others found the review helpful, etc. You know, the things that make your point completely moot
>last one i don't really understand
Everything on EGS is epic approved. Curation is good, double standards based on whether the game is exclusive or not isnt.
>you cant make a big deal out of it
You fucking idiot, why the fuck not? Cloud saves are the reason you can uninstall a game to make room for others, without losing all your progress in that game. Yes, you could make a physical backup, so why dont you?
Chase Evans
>Curation is good
Which is exactly why everyone bitched when Steam did it, right?
Angel Kelly
It's mostly just media COPE since so many were backing Hillary and got fucked by Trump being elected.
Now they're raising so much of a stink about it that Orange Man might just get re-elected because people want to spite the media.
Another issue that the accusations and criticisms have gotten so ridiculous that media trust is real low and so a lot of people don't actually have a clear idea of what specific good or bad Trump has done since most of what they hear sounds like either shilling or conspiracy bullshit and is thus disregarded.
Kevin Moore

Alexander Reed
PC gaming doesn't need console war-equivalent bullshit, which is exactly what EG caused.

Jaxon James

Blake Barnes
>you can't understand if a game is good by reading some retarded review on steam
The rating average gives a good first indication for the quality to expect.
Reviews can be also helpful. If there are five reviews complaining about bugs it might be a good idea to wait for some patches.
>no one i choses what you play except you
Epic allows no devs they don't like or who don't play by their exclusivity rules. The bigger epics market share the worse such practices will be for smaller devs.
Jack Flores
It's just worse version of Steam. If it had no always online shit like GoG, then it might be good.
Austin Butler
Nah, its because steam couldnt decide which set of standards to follow. Random porn games (with the porn content cut) were removed from steam for no apparent reasons, while others, such as VNs with porn origins were unharmed. People were sick of steam because steam had no firm stance on the topic, hence all the bitching and why steam just went 'fuck it put up whatever you want'
Oliver Scott
While this is a shitpost, it does bring up a good point by pro EGS shills. How is this "competition" benefiting me? The games on EGS aren't any cheaper. I'm not getting a better experience using EGS. The only thing I gain by using EGS is being forced to use an inferior client to play exclusives.
Austin Robinson
>Curation is good,
Nah.
Mason Parker
Now you're thinking without chink cock lodged in your throat
Easton Jones
>STEAM HAS A 30% CUT! REEEEE!
Is the only answer the shills will give.
>DEVS DECIDE WHO WINS THE STORE WARS
Is the one they used to use before it came out that they're refusing anyone not agreeing to exclusivity.
Jordan Wood
take this to reddit you fag, I'm sure you'll have more "civilized" arguments about the subject there
or are you too scared of having a name next to your shitty chink opinions?
Kayden Campbell
It actually is. Look how absolutely cluttered steam is
Luis Phillips
Cooper Ward
It doesn't even run on my operating system.
Henry Foster
>cluttered steam
"Clittered" how exactly? How does this affect you without explicitly going into the "all new released " page and remove all filters?
Brayden Russell
I don't care about "clutter". I buy what I want, usually after pirating to see if I like it. I don't need store to tell me what I should or shouldn't buy.
Nolan Butler
You literal canadian commie why don't you let me spy on you reeeer
Elijah Miller
>cluttered
You do understand a good chunk of that 'clutter' jumped ship to epic when offered a sack of cash, right?
That said, the egscucks do have a point. I'd rather all the porn be on nutaku or some other storefront. Porn on steam is just a butchered inelegant mess that you need to clean up and patch manually. Just get proper porn games from a proper porn game store
Brody Peterson
I'll tell you once you tell me why you hate this capitalist bird.
Nicholas Sanchez

It took 5 plus years for steam to not be shit. I'm not beta testing for epic, if they provide a decent store front with features on par with steam I'll use it.
Truth me told I prefer gig, only platform where you get drm free games.
Michael Nguyen
Prior to Artifact hearing Steam was getting a new exclusive would have been exciting because it meant Valve actually developed a new game, of course now they've ruined that.
Ryan Diaz
>I'd rather all the porn be on nutaku or some other storefront. Porn on steam is just a butchered inelegant mess that you need to clean up and patch manually. Just get proper porn games from a proper porn game store
Ayy, though this reminds me of bullshit bans that happened in patreon over certain porn content, like incest.
Brayden Williams
It took steam x years to be good is not an argument, Epic had literally 10 years to learn from Valve and chose to launch less features than some of Steam's most shit competitors like Origin and Uplay
The insectoid fears the trolley
Jeremiah Gutierrez
Now the shills have abandoned the thread, how many do we think are currently en-route to "reeducation camps" for failing to get any new spyware installations for the grorious chinese empire?
Oliver Brown
>Steam got Battlezone
GOG has it too...AND BATTLE REALMS. But yeah, Steam should also get Battle Realms. I have both the GOG and Steam versions of Metal Fatigue. Both lack the RimTech soundtracks and instead uses the Mil-Agro ones as default.
Oliver Reed
cute cunny
Luke Reyes
im indifferrent to it because i pirate everything anyway
Elijah Torres
With Epic you can pirate freely
Zachary Gray
all pirating is free, thats kinda the point

Camden Wilson

Jackson Williams
how many epic exclusives were announced at gamescon this year?
Hudson Morgan
For the same reason people hate when a physical game is a gamestop exclusive. Its fucking dumb.
Aiden Ramirez
They don't announce epic exclusivity until a few days before release so they can collect maximum steam preorder bux
William Fisher
not sure what youre getting at but the point is piracy involves no cost besides owning a pc
Ryan Cooper
yeah but now you can sleep well at night, knowing the developers are being compensated for your enjoyment
Christopher Parker
Things that never happened.
Aiden Reyes
ill sleep well anyway, studies show piracy doesnt affect profit margins at all
Jose Howard
EGS literally blocked people from purchasing for buying 3 games in a row (no shopping cart LMAO) during their botched sale
Thomas Reed
give it time f@m. ppl at first hate everything that's new. remember the days when everybody shitted on steam because it was slow, buggy mess and "muh physical copies are superior"?
Nathaniel Peterson
But the early steam hate was justified
Aaron Roberts
It was months ago, it was one guy and he was unblocked in 15 minutes. Seems like steamdrones don't have any arguments
Dominic Butler
Just like the EGS hate is. When they add basic functionality there will be one less reason to hate them.
Don't hold your breath though, everyone knows the store is just a front for the spyware behind it.
Grayson Taylor
well, epic is not perfected in current state. it's not unusable or broken but it's lacking a lot of quality features that will be implemented along the way. should we hate epic store? fuck no.
Angel Reed
The new batch of bugmen have arrived. Expect 30 minutes of shitposting before a tank runs them all over and nobody is allowed to speak of them again.

Depending on where you live, it's actually both
>that will be implemented along the way

The fact the shills won't acknowledge certain things but ALWAYS respond to claims of spyware just proves my point.

Dominic Bennett
Thank you for further proving my point. EGS is spyware.
Aaron Miller
>you can hide the porn results!
That's not the point, read the whole post
Justin Walker
Because they're liars. They claim they just want to make a competitive market place. But then they keep making exclusives so that you can only buy games from them. In reality, they are trying to kill steam so they can be the new monopoly.
Justin Ross
calm down phil
Charles Rivera
>You know, the things that make your point completely moot
not really, if you need other people to decide if a game is good for you just look it up online lmao that's not as big of a deal as you make it out to be
>Yes, you could make a physical backup, so why dont you?
exactly why don't you? lmao you answered yourself here
>Everything on EGS is epic approved. Curation is good, double standards based on whether the game is exclusive or not isnt.
and so what? if a game isn't on epic you play it on steam
why the fuck would you care if a game is approved on epic games if you want to play it you just play it in whatever fucking platform it's available on
>Reviews can be also helpful.
this is true but are you not gonna look into a game you're interested in just because you have to google it instaed of having it on epic launcher?
>Epic allows no devs they don't like or who don't play by their exclusivity rules
see this is the only thing that makes sense for me, if you don't wanna use it out of a moral problem i can't say anything
John Perez
>so that you can only buy games from them
It's not even that, some of the EGS """""""exclusives"""""" are now avaliable from GOG or the windows store. They're literally just blocking devs from also selling on steam at this point
Ryder Wood
That's a load of shit. Steam has no exclusivity deals. Developers are free to also put their games on GoG or wherever.
Logan Foster
china, fortnite, exclusive crap, another fucking library for my games, lack of features and friends. what exactly there is to love?
Lincoln Baker
Schizo.... What an odd, outdated insult. Almost like something somebody who doesn't speak English well may use. Did you run out of words on your "type these to blend in" list or is your supervisor just shit at writing scripts?
Grayson Mitchell
this
EGS is just a by-product of lazy chink immitation like so many other products
Kayden Moore
And Epic had all these years to watch and learn as well as investigate the platform themselves. This is not an argument.
Jonathan Gray
Yeah nig
Ryan Baker
>lack of features is not a bad thing because I like extra work!
I like convenience. Reviews are convenient. Reviews sorted by relevance, how long the reviewer played, credibility etc is relevant, convenient and trustworthy to a degree. This is something Egs and even google doesnt have
>exactly why don't you?
Again, convenience. I'd like to point out that every single steam user has a cloudsave of every single game in their library, so tell me, how many egs users have physical backups of their games? How many games have you backed up physically?
>if you want to play it you just play it in whatever fucking platform it's available on
I would pirate it if that was the only criteria in play
Hunter Walker
For how long do you think they can sustain the practice of paying for exclusivity?
Ethan Garcia
Remember guys, every time you talk about the large scale, government ordered massacre that occurred at Tianenmen square in 1989 the entire batch of shills have to be swiftly executed and replaced by a new batch. Even with billions of people they can't keep it up forever.

As long as Fortnite keeps raking in the bucks. Bare in mind they now also own Rocket League so they can earn from that too.
Landon Jenkins
hopefully till the death of steam.
Carter Jones
Until the children become distracted by a new shiny thing. Soon as the fortnite bux dry up Epic is dead in the fucking water.
Mason Sanders
Because you fucks keep posting totally not marketer threads again and again and again which I guess absolutely never coincide with sales in that shop.
Joshua Parker
Is console exclucivity only way to make polished big games that still can be innovative. Nintendo might be best example and sony comes next.
Asher Gomez
There was the greencard scare. I had a few friends in Uni that were afraid they wouldn't be able to get back into the US even though they were permanent residents
William Bailey
Epic has gotten a bad reputation by buying up KS games that were promised to be available on Steam.

Which stage are you on today steamdrones?
Gavin Ross
Because of obvious shills like you.
Ian Wood
I'm at the stage where you remember that the Chinese government ordered their military to brutally murder thousands of peacefully protesting students and refuse to even let their parents grieve for them.
What stage of grief do you think the parents of those poor kids are at?
Brandon Richardson
>How many games have you backed up physically?
only metro and ashen cause they're the only games i have on epic and had to unistall
>I like convenience.
me too but you can't rely on relevance or hours played, there are people with hundreds of hours on terrible games that will post about how good, remember the dudes shitting about how skyrim bugs made it a better game?
even if you take a look at fallout 76 you can see that most reviews are positive

thats a pretty large cope for someone who virtue signals by pretending to give a shit about dead chinks
Brody Myers
All of those things are also bad. Also Tibet is a free and independent country which China has no claim to.
Joshua Ward
>Also Tibet is a free and independent country which China has no claim to.
That does fit more taiwan than tibet
Chase Walker
It's not virtue signalling, i'm just ensuring a few more of them get sent off to whatever the chink equivalent of a gulag is for knowing what happened in Tianenmen square in 1989.

Outer Worlds might be the first game I play on EGS only to delete it afterwards
Xavier Diaz
Yeah, after x years it looks like their exclusivity contract runs out. I wonder if epic simply copied steam strategy regarding their exclusivity contracts
Jonathan Scott
>you don't see people
>exclusive shit pissing people off all over the internet
Another retard I see.
Gavin Gomez
sure you are, and im sure gabe has already deposited a few nickels into your steam wallet for this post already
Jackson Gutierrez
You're a fucking retard.

Gee I wonder why OP
Jeremiah Baker
just pirate it
or support it on the xbox app for pc
Cameron Rivera
If it won't come with Denuvo I'll pirate it
Adrian Perez
Bringing console's forced exclusivity cancer to PC.
Only allowing games on it if they agree not to release on steam.
Blake Sanders
You only get paid a few nickels for your shilling? Interesting.
I'm British so i'm actually paid in tea by Queen Elizabeth II every time I mention the opium wars where we managed to defeat China so hard with 2 warships that they had to give us a city to leave them alone.
Tyler Allen
>N-no u are retarded
When we are at that,friendly reminder that people on this board unironically belive that because epic launcher reads certificates it's a spyware.
Gavin Brooks
well i actually get a slice of pizza per post, but that translates to a few nickels on the secondary market

Back to the "use these words to blend in" list I see. Good plan, stick to the script you're no good at improvising.

See? The list works! As long as you don't mention Epic they'll never know!

because they're shit just like your gay thread faggot
Michael Ross
It's an inferior store with none of the feature that steam has ( No reviews, forums, workshop, groups, Linux support, TV mode, Wish list, A fucking cart) Privacy issues from tencent chinks and the site UI is just awful.

I think not using Epic Games Store bad idea, very good.
Everyone use it, you think not?

It's not steam's fault, it's steam's monopoly fault.
Blake Moore

I remember Gaben couldn't give less of a shit.
Dylan Brooks
I don't I like it actually.
Steam is fucking outdated and bloated with useless features. I just want to play videogames.
Christopher Ortiz
>monopoly fault
I didn't know there was a game like this
Justin Robinson
>The narrative over the last eight or nine months in the games industry is that Valve is under pressure now to improve Steam after a massive company like Epic has entered the store space. How do you view this competition?
>You can look at competition in some many different ways. Steam isn't just competing against Epic or Microsoft or Sony - we're competing against Netflix and videos and books. It's all just how people choose to spend their time. We take a much broader view of what Steam does really well, how we can make sure we keep doing that really well and serving customers as best we can. We're always paying attention to the landscape, seeing how we fit into that and how we keep doing the best job that we can.
>Steam isn't just competing against Epic or Microsoft or Sony - we're competing against Netflix and videos and books.
I can't fucking believe Valve are the only ones that understand this.

Bentley Wright
Valve has always been doing something, they just never listened to game journalists when they start whining about anime tiddies or their friend's games not getting free advertising so they started spreading the meme that they do nothing.
Angel Sullivan

Robert Jenkins
>get some free vidyagames
>play them
What does the name of the brand have to do with anything. It let's me play videogames so I don't see the point?
UI looks like shit from 1990 and I don't care about groups, achievements, badges, trading cards, Steam Music, the marketplace and all the other random shit you never use if you just want to play some indies.
Justin Brown
this image is stupid
they arent taking the deal because of the shitty 88% they are taking it for the up front cash payment

Hunter Williams
Because it acts just like what a monopolistic storefront would even if it hasn't achieved it yet
Carter Wood
Why do you care so much about useless features
Jackson Brown
A friend of mine got his Epic account stolen twice, and both times they used his credit card. Fuck off I'm gonna give them my data. Besides, Steam has regional prices and they let me pay cash.
Cooper Stewart
You are special
Levi Smith
since steam became store filled with trash and cheap chinese porn games I needed some alternative with quality content and epic delivered big time. they're adding great new games each day, and a lot of them are exclusives. partnership with sony will make epic store even better. stay salty steamcels.
Anthony Garcia
>pledditors actually believing this is the rason
>kids think money is the only problem
you people still think its information era? those fags can't even check the shit store themselves
Brandon Parker
Anyone with an Epic account knows you get constant emails of people trying to access your account plus if you ever buy something it auto saves your CC info and you need to go and manually delete it
Austin Anderson
Epic is the future of the digital video game platform. You need to learn to accept it. You have no choice.
Evan Allen
+10 to your epic credit score

John Evans
It broke the gentlemen's agreement by bringing console bullshit (aka paid 3rd party exclusives) to pc
It's clear that they are willing to cross lines to get what they want and I am not supporting that kind of philosophy
Brandon Perry
Remember to use 2FA on all your accounts.
Adam Flores
Things that gaben can't said anymore
Parker Roberts
So you want me to give them my phone number as well as my credit card information?
Brody Russell
You don't need a number in most 2FA options. SMS is the least secure 2FA method. Most use apps.
Particularly, Epic doest even have a phone number option, just email as 2FA.
Elijah Barnes
why do overly sensitive poc love klansmen? I have lived in the deep south in the blackest part of the country and have seen 1 klansman in real life in 30 years. I guarantee most of the US has never been within 100 miles of any klan activity

Yea Forums follows Valve like a 2nd father because they grew up with Steam. Ironically, Steam is a DRM platform, which makes it shit by default. But that doesn't stop Yea Forums from worshipping it.
Ryan Phillips
Money aside, it will stop working next year because all of this year's exclusives will be coming to steam and they evidently can't afford long exclusives for AAA games which hurts them since all the games announced this year got delayed to next year.
Juan Flores
Sony and ubisoft don't need a bribe to go with epic. They know that they are the future, smaller devs obviously need bribes because they lack vision
