People hating epic games are the socialists of gaming industry, they love high taxes. And just like in real life...

But I pay more if I buy a game on Epic than if I do on Steam.

>Epic is fixing this for all gamers

Damn right, now I can pirate guiltfree

this. based epic paying devs so i don't have to.

Remember when PC games were $50 USD because all you had to do was download a game and it didn't require transport, packaging, etc.?
Thanks Valve!

Oh yes.

When it started out it was great. But now that everybody and their mom has a digital storefront, there's competition.

30% is the standard in most industries.

30% is ridiculous for right now, it's not easy to push because the industry of selling software is one big oligopoly.

Why do these guys always ignore GOG

I'll nab the free games but no way in fuck am I giving you a cent, Tim, especially after you fucked over Linux gaming for no reason.

Its his job.
t. paid shill

Devs are douchebags. Fuck them and their greed.

What you're pointing out with Steam would be considered a monopoly; which is a market failure of capitalism. The 30% (if it is 30%), is to use the largest and essential only digital marketplace for gaming, that's just the service of the company.

Socialism is dumb, but to go around throwing around the word 'socialist' to describe capitalist market failure is pretty retarded.

No, it's not. Valve has always been open to negotiating the share and there's no way big publishers ever paid 30%.
The Domestic Dog dev posted on here how he got 25% for his next game, so all it took was making one game that isn't a complete failure.

>Everything is a conspiracy to get me

Yeah, instead of rising price of basic game they add dlcs and micros to meet their revenue goals. We are getting taxed either way, but you're too stupid to realize that

Apple, Google, and most other marketplaces take a 30% cut as well, but I never heard anybody complain about them. Even Epic has admitted that their 12% cut is not sustainable if they weren't making all their Fortnite bucks.

Where were you when even Epic says they're going to go back to a 30% cut after trying to fuck over valve?

30% is the industry standard. If Epic genuinely cared about that, they'd kill console ports of their exclusives too. But they don't care, it's just a stupid talking point to trick the laughably ignorant into thinking Epic has good intentions.

I'd argue that you could get any bottom of the barrel crap to become a spammed meme on Yea Forums, but I'm pretty sure we're already there.

>fixing the industry by replacing Steam with a competitor that is similarly-priced, but has less features

Steam should lower the cut to 12%, and charge % for any additional feature

It's a sales tax, the worst of them all. And since there pretty muchonly one distributor of third party products on ps/xbox/apple/google/pc(not anymore)/nintendo capitalism does not work here. At least in case of pc it's fixable, because it's an open platform

30% is the standard due to physical retailers.
There was even a point where Steam and PSN publishers had to RAISE the price of games because retailers threatened to pull their physical stock from shelves.

If you wanna blame someone, blame shit like Walmart and Gamestop

True, as anyone that ever read marx knows creators don't deserve the fruits of their labour and it should instead go to a middleman.

Sweeney likes to imply that he is doing this for some sort of change in the industry, but he literally does not accept publishing deals that are not exclusive. That means his primary goal is to deny competitors products, rather than cause an upset in market behavior.

Meanwhile, 90% of EGS games still cost 60$. Yeah, I'm thinking I don't give a fuck what the faceless multimillion corporations make. If the experience of buying a game from a service is inferior to pirating it, then the choice is clear.

Reminder EGS is promoted by SJWs.

Tim gave me metro and control for free. He's ok despite being a creepy wanker.

Pirate shit nigger, Bethesda's store front was such a shit show they ran back to steam. They force accounts for online and pre-order bonus access as they're blantly prepping people for Starfield to be exclusive to their launcher but you can pirate that when it happens.

That’s because they automate their problems to consumers, dipshit.

Timed exclusives. He's not denying Steam any games. Everything on EGS can go on Steam when the exclusivity is up and as far as I know they all will. I think taking exclusivity for games that have a promised release date on Steam is real shitty, but you're ultimately not being forced to have multiple launchers if you don't really want them.

Nah it does not Sony-kun.

A timed exclusive is still exclusive. He is essentially trying to create an artificial (timed) drought of content everywhere except EGS, in a bid to get people to use it. He seems to be completely unaware of the reasons why people use steam in the first place.

You don't compete against a feature-packed product by releasing a similar, but feature-stripped product and then try to take over the market by not letting anyone else sell merchandise. That'll only make consumers dislike you, just as it has.

>People hating epic games are the socialists of gaming industry

There's also the long term viability of his strategy. PC gamers are generally more into older games because emulation, steam sales, and mods to fix stupid shit. His strategy won't work next year because anyone not willing to pirate will just play all of this year's exclusives instead. I mean Borderlands is only 6 months and by the time it comes to steam, it will be a complete product.

These are some insane mental gymnastics. You literally don't know what socialist means or this is some sort of weird troll. Epic is for taking away from the profiting on the work of others and giving compensation to the actual workers. That's socialism.

Well, in this retarded ass scale you've created. It's still capitalism, but if anyone is socialist here it's Epic.

>Because we had no other choice for 95% of games in the past 10 years?

Piracy was always a choice, Gabe explained a decade ago that out preforming pirated copies is how you win. Even when buying shit regularly, I pirated Ubisoft games when I still gave a shit about them because fuck UPlay.

Epic: Fortnite, Memelands, Indie sellouts

Steam: Team Fortress 2, Master Chief Collection, based companies like Capcom

The choice is clear

You can't talk Borderlands fags out of not buying them, at best there's pointing out they should wait for the steam version.

If that was true, people would have no problem with EGS. The truth is that Steam simply offers so much more than just games. It's a feature-complete digital platform that allows you to chat with people, both text and voice, create communities and organize events for said communities and discuss and troubleshoot products on their own forums where developers can directly interact with the consumers. It can also double as a music player, and offers software for animation/modelling, audio production, design & illustration and much more.

Simply put, Steam offers much more than EGS does.

30% is not sustainable but somehow 12% is?

This. Before Steam, studios like Sir-Tech went under due the bad circumstances in the PC sector and especially due deals that big publishers made with big retailers. The choices were growing big enough to sustain yourself, going to a large publisher that would slowly poison your games with terrible ideas or closing shop.

I welcome all competition, but so far Steam and GOG have been the only two stores that are adequate.

Xbox Gamepass App turns off whenever I run games. I really like this.

>Steam was killing PC gaming

PC gaming is a multi-billion dollar industry, it makes more than all the consoles fucking combined. PC games have gone from making millions to literal billions for their companies and he thinks Steam is killing it? How are these retards devs when they know absolutely nothing about the industry they're supposedly part of?

He is a saint, he's not only saving gaming industry but world as a whole as well

Good idea:
>Spend millions of dollars getting exclusivity deals for rando games like Shenmue 3 (when your store doesn't even have the first two games)
Bad idea:
>Spend any money improving your store

fpbp

>How are these retards devs when they know absolutely nothing about the industry they're supposed part of
it's called PROPAGANDA. They're lying on purpose. If you haven't realized over the course of the last five years worth of events, there's an alarming number of evil people in the games industry.
