Shroud isnt the sharpest tool in the shed, he's good at shooting games but anything then requires critical thinking is out of his league. The fact that he thinks epic will help get FF7 remake on PC is retarded, it will be up to sony and square enix to do so, sony would have to opt not to pay for it to be a ps4 exclusive and square enix would have to want to port it to begin with (although they probably would seeing their track record of porting games to PC over the last few years)

So far there has not been a case where epic is directly responsible for getting a console exclusive ported to PC (Quantic Dreams games were planned to be ported before EGS was a thing) but people tend to correlate exclusivity with some kind of porting deal. Think back to how nioh was a sony exclusive and it just popped up on PC out of nowhere, it's like that except no one paid the publisher to port it to PC.

Also epic is only pro dev when it is an indie game, when it is a AAA game most f the money goes to the publisher.

It's a free to play.

Why should I support a store that offers me no advantages over the already established stores and only benefits the people who are trying to take my money?

Why can't the epic store try to create a more pro-consumer market?

They would probably get more people to buy from their store if they sold the games cheaper than you can get them elsewhere and if their return policy was more lenient, for example.

Instead games cost the same, the store is missing pretty much all the features of their competition and on top of that, they're trying to turn the PC gaming market into a copy of the console market.

They can suck my dick.

It's been this way since around 2007 when Steam killed retail for PC games and everyone including Activision was forced to sell their games there.

It's still evil. This isn't a "you can only choose one" thing. It's not politics like this dumbass thinks It's walmart vs target. You don't get banned from one for going to another. You could download epic's launcher and only ever take their free weekly games and free to play games, never giving them a dime. You can have steam and only ever buy things on sale. You can have both you fucking idiots.

You don't have to subscribe to one or none like you're voting for a political party. You know they're both fucking evil and shit in their own ways, one more than the other, but you think you have to pick one? If it were actually a big enough deal to you then you'd not pick either and avoid them. If that's impossible for you then just pick both for whatever you want.

Get your groceries at walmart and your clothes at target and complain about how both are destroying society. Complaining about one like picking the lesser evil makes it ok is nonsense in this kind of scenario.

I've heard more convincing marketing from EA and ubisoft than epic, at least those companies will lube you up before they fuck your ass and milk you dry but epic just cuts to the chase.

You make it sound like Steam shot "retail for PC games" in the back of the head. What happened was Steam's service was just flat out better than retail. No waiting in line, no driving from store to store hoping it isn't sold out or unavailable, no issues with rotating stock, etc. It's fast, the price is equal or better to what's in stores, there's no scarcity issues, and you don't have to worry about reinstalling the game if you get a new computer or keeping track of discs.

Cat was out of the bag, retail couldn't compete against that kind of convenience. And consumers only benefited from it. Between GoG and Steam it's never been a better time to be a PC gamer.

You need a different hobby. You're way too invested in absolutely nothing.

Everyone of those except Epic only has exclusives on their platform if they were made by the company that owns the platform. Which makes sense. Fortnite being EGS exclusive makes sense. Buying out third party games to be exclusive is scummy. Nobody else is doing that.

If it wasn't steam it would have been GFWL or Direct2Drive or GMG or G2A or some other shit. This technology was inevitable because it happened to the music industry long before it happened to gaming. No company was "forced" to use steam, you have to realize companies make decisions because they're motivated by profits. Digital distribution is cheap as fuck compared to physical, only losing 30% to steam beats losing 25% to gamestop/EBgames, then another small % for the manufacturing of the physical copies, another small % for the console company, etc. etc

Don't even get me started on the customer demand, no one wants to go wait in line or wait for a physical copy of a game to ship when you can buy it off an online storefront go take a piss and then play it by the time your piss break is over. Physical copies were doomed the moment it became possible send games over the internet.

UE4 has some small sway but at the end of the day for big publishers like square enix they would need a really sweet deal on top of epic forfeiting their 5% UE licensing to make them consider it. Namco and Sega have some UE4 titles but they really don't give a fuck about the licensing fees or the deals from EGS because they want the most sales possible and widest adoption.

It's a scam, dude. The argument, as it were, is that "epic store gives more money to developers". It's operating the way it does under the guise of
"helping developers" but that's not even true. "Developers" can't make more money there without the OK from Epic. It's just there for Epic and Epic's cronies to make more money for themselves and their Chinese owners.

Yes, before that every game was forced to use steam drm. To strip competitors from games essentially killing anything other than steam and GoG(which didn't accept drm games to begin with).

Valve was never "the good guys"

but egs is drm free to based steamworks subhuman

Stadia is going to bury EGS and be the true competition for steam. It sounds like a meme now but just look at it through the lens of a normie: you buy a box, you get a subscription that's like a netflix subscription, you connect to the internet and now you can play a fuckload of games instantly, no downloading games, no patching, none of that shit and if you don't like the subscription then you can just buy the games on stadia and play it that way. Normies won't be able to tell if theres input lag unless their internet is dogshit but with 5G coming around the corner that won't be a problem either.

Within a year or 2 stadia will blow epic out of the water, they'll be trying to sell exclusive games while google hypnotizes normies and changes the way they play games.

Based. Guess I'll throw some money at the shitty indie game out of principle. Fuck Epic not for their exclusives, but for their dropping of Unreal Tournament THEN deciding to get people to use their shit platform through tactics that to the end-user comes off as Games For Windows Live/modern online pass tier faggotry.

I don't care. I'm not a developer, I'm a consumer

Yes, but if the games they offer are different then there's no competition.
Maybe you can decide whether to buy singular games on Steam or Epic, but if you want to play several that aren't on one or the other, you still have to use both.
That doesn't sound like the Steam replacement people want it to be.

But that's one ofvthe direct downsides he mentioned and it's not that EGS has exclusives over Valve, Blizz, or Origin, it's that they're aggressively acquiring exclusives because their platform isnt otherwise worth a fuck to anyone. They directly negatively impact people who wanted to play games without further dividing their library across platforms on PC.

so it's not as DRM-free as GOG installers?

you subhuman drone, epic is not owned by china, they give a shit about china, gayben on the otherside is sucking chink dick since the king leoric rework

Thanks for the game Tim! about to hit it up right now

its the same, you need software for both

>epic is not owned by china
u wot m8. Epic is owned by tencent. Tencent is owned by the CCP.

I fucking hate cwrd games and grew up on Quake and Unreal. I don't care about your 'us vs them' internal consolewar faggotry, I want a good shooter I can ideally play across platforms that receives solid support rather than being left dead in the water with the ability for the community to make microtransactions EGS cashes out on. Fuck you.

This is funny because when it first came out people thought Steam was crazy for going with a cut as low as 30%, compared to the normal retail cut that was typically around 60-70% at the time.

>30% tax
i'm not a investor why the fuck do i care if its 30% tax or 80% tax
fucking shills

>none of them got a player base
Stopped reading there since I can agree with that and what follows up is an eceleb 'imo imo imo'ing you nor I should give a shit about when there is a void waiting to be filled by something that isn't an indie shooter or failure with no marketing. Quake Champions is as close as it gets and even then it's not as fast.

it’s close to be on the catalog daily for a year

There it is. Dota Again. Dota = Valve now, I suppose.

It's so bad that simple shit like cloud saves on EGS causes games to crash. It's bad enough dealing with more launchers but imagine having to use a new launcher that's buggy as fuck on top of that. It reminds me of an issue I had with EA's launcher where I couldn't use the overlay on some game because my mouse and keyboard wouldn't work but for other games I needed the overlay for my friends list to work.
It's not fun having a buggy client stop you from playing games.

sure, but you don't need internet connection nor do you need to log in to use the gog installers. you could just copy the installer and use it on offline computers as well. could you do similar on egs?

This kills the Epic shills

>epicshill resorts to pointless crying
If exclusives are a competition, EGS is still losing badly. Capcom just confirmed Zero/ZX collection for steam, Bamco and Sega have washed their hands off EGS exclusivity, DARQ refused EGS exclusivity and the devs not only highlighted their hypocrisy, but also made a killing on steam by riding the positive PR, thus reducing any incentive future indies might have to join EGS.
And during all this, EGS got bee simulator. A fucking simulator

It'd be more like
One store sells eggs, butter, flour
Fifteenth store pays supply company to not sell eggs at the other stores and screams about store one being so mean while stores 1-14 and the people that shop at those stare at the spectacle.

meanwhile epic has to manually update and every time they do an update it pushes back all other updates and game releases

Actually that is exactly what drm free means you dumbass, and the closest to mandatory GOG galaxy "mandatory" is when it is used as a emulator for games with gamespy, and even then there's still gameranger and other free master server services you disengenuious shit eating troglydyte

you could just download the installer. have you never gotten a gog offline game installer?

Alternatively it's like states where you must buy a car from certain car dealers that tend to deal in brands and get you in the door by being associated wity a brand other dealerships do not have. EGS is the car dealership that begins cutting deals with manufacturers to make shopping around for the vehicle you want from any other available outlet impossible because they paid money for it and are now trying to convince you they're fighting a good fight on your behalf.

Steam does not have any investors, it’s own by two people.

...

They both keep a body part warm don't they?

It's not okay when Steam buys a platform choice out from underneath people who were going to buy their game. As kuch as you'd like the goalposts to shift to chinamen, people in this thread and who have never touched it alike stand united on Epic Games aggressively buying up exclusives to pad out their otherwise unappealing catalog is some bullshit that effects them directly more than they believe chinamen will. You can out a racial perspective on why people hate EGS, but you can't hide being a bigger in doing so.

Whoops!

>Valve
>Investors
Lol

>he still doesn’t realize that all companies in China are party owned by law.
Being owned by chinks is even more subhuman

>please stop focusing on our hypocrisy and instead let me argue about something irrelevant
LMAO

gayben is sucking perfect world dick since 2016, steam china is not really his property

you know that you can record the last x amount of time with your graphics card, right?

Do you even know what partnering even means, you retard?

No but seriously, do you?

You know, if I made a shit game on the unreal engine and I came to the realisation that the game sucks, I would totally go for the EGS exclusivity deal. It's guaranteed sales. Then I could use Sweeney's money to make a game that sucks less.
I get it now, EGS really is saving gaming.

If normies dont care about chinamen in movies what makes you think they will in games?

I think they care about their ability to buy shit being impacted and EGS is doing just that.

>he doesn't know what partnership is
It's alright, I didn't expect a Steamcel to have any understanding about business.

Lmao just keep dancing around the question.

When a company partners with another company that means they are working on something, it does not mean they are merging or one owns the other.

Thanks for the confirmation, Steamcel

I wanna fuck Winnie the Pooh in his yellow plushie ass while he screams Tiananmen Square Massacre pasta loudly. Also I will ask him about his thoughts on Hong Kong protests.

epic shouldn't even be allowed to exist

you're very very lucky that no decent country has invaded the copyright-denial shithole that is china to take shit like this down

plain copy of steam and market sabotage cancer, if you support epic then you support stealing and arson

So kind of like Epic and Tencent. Got it!

Tencent actually owns stock in epic games. Valve on the other hand is a private company owned by two people.

So many months of issues, so little media coverage and now chinese actors were caught infiltrating the protests on behalf of their govt to frame the protests in an ugly light and collect the identities of those there likely for future prosecution. Really makes ya think about Chinese influence and their long game when they consider criminal jurisdiction abroad and upon people in other countries ahead of them being able to act upon it.

>While the Chinese government has historically taken a hands-off approach to online entities, a shift in government attitude toward Tencent and others technology started in 2017. First, Tencent’s very popular online game Honor of Kings was criticized in People’s Daily as “poison” and a “drug,” noting its addictive effect on China’s youth. Tencent’s response was to set up a system that limits daily game time for all players under 18.

>Starting in March 2018, the Chinese government put a freeze on the approval of new games, including all Tencent products. Tencent suffered a stock plunge that wiped out more than $135 billion off its market value. Many have interpreted this as the Chinese government sending Tencent and others the message: “You think you are big? Well, we the Party are bigger.”

>redskyalliance.org/finished-analysis/chinese-tech-giant-tencent-and-its-relationship-with-the-chinese-

>Minority shareholder in private owned companies = partnership
Back to school drone, stop embarrassing yourself

>Imagine being this far into suicide
Get your brain straight user

I think a freeze on your production and a 135 billion loss would make a company more predisposed to making deals with a nation known for aggressive cyberwarfare to the point they steal patented designs. Think about that client that connects to chinamen passively before you install it.

Epic games is also a private company where Tim sweeney act as controlling shareholder and CEO at the same time.
We don't know who's owning valve, it's not a conspiracy theory. Private companies don't have to share this kind of info to the public.

LOL, epic has been shilling by far the hardest. Stop this bullshit epic shill

40% is pretty big. Almost half

>pro-developer
That's not how you spell pro-publisher

How do you know it's owned by two people if it's private? Chinese perhaps?

>Imagine being this retarded
Yes gaben is pandering to perfect world for fun

It's as big as 1% when it comes to decision making.

ITT things that never happened

Say, how come Valve has been "partnering" with chinese companies like perfect world and HTC lately?

China has been generous.

>We don't know who's owning valve
So you have no proof that they have investors? Valve is also a anarchy where all employees vote on company decisions.

They were partners of perfect wold since 2012?

To get China their own version and quarantine them off as much as possible

So you have no proof that Valve isn't owned by the chinese?

come on 56

Minority shareholder means jackshit in private companies, you invest money you get money back, the amount of the money is based on your stake.

>Valve is also a anarchy where all employees vote on company decisions.
Nah, that's not how it works. Read something about it, valve is actually like a fucking highschool but they do have their president.
>>So you have no proof that they have investors?
Obviously i don't have proofs, because that info is not public. I just fucking said that you moron

What did the Steamcel zoomer mean by this?

The burden of proof is on you.

If you do not have proof then I have no reason to believe you.

China is filled to the brim with cheating cunts. Its why there was that PUBG controversy when everyone got mad over Chinese players cheating in western servers.

It means that steam will give China it's own version of steam. The playerbase their will only be able to use that platform. Unless they break the rules and use normal steam. Does that explain better? I know English is hard, just keep working on it

The Chinese are known to review bomb games as well.

Hmm, very interesting. So what we're seeing here is a war between two Chinese companies, Tencent VS Perfect World. I guess that explains all the chinese defending both of these companies on Yea Forums.

Why is this still alive? Why did the jannies delete a single irrelevant post and not the thread again?

The only thing we know about valve is the fact that gaben owns more than half and he act as a controlling shareholder. I don't know who own rest of the company nor do you. That's all what i am saying.

Maybe because the truthbombs against your lord and savior Gayben constitute video game discussion. You can't hide the truth, Steamcel.

If people are to busy here there is less shit in normal threads

Yup pretty much.

Proofs?

>5G coming around the corner
There's barely reliable 4G/LTE in the US and 5G has a way shorter reach. Also, if you think ISP and mobile carriers will start proposing true uncapped unlimited data because of 5G, you're out of your mind.

Anti-developer, anti-consumer, totally not a trend that will burn out after way too much money is burned trying to make it work when it doesn't and is lacking in features and stability relative to other options, but all you can imagine me implying is Steam, right?

You mean, they guy who abandon valve in 2000? Yeah, i don't think so

They still have COO...

So, who owns valve? Post proofs faggot

The CEO and COO, also the burden of proof is on you.

No, no they don't. But you know? Post proofs

Well, i'm asking for proofs on your statment. So burden of proof is on you. And it seems you don't have any proofs who's owning other half of valve.

Then who is Scott Lynch.

>And it seems you don't have any proofs who's owning other half of valve.
Nether do you.
