Le epic reddit comics
isn't he saying that the plate/bowl is the launcher and the food is the game? but the Epic bowl looks completely fine, it's just filled with horrible contents (games). But the logo on the menu implies that he's a big fan of the restaurant's (game company) previous work. What I'm saying is that this pathetic, overly wordy joke's barely-there punchline doesn't make any fucking sense
He almost hits the mark here. Really, Epic has just been scummy, and being pretty negative toward anyone not on their side. It might make more sense if the bowl was full of chinese spyware instead. There are already other storefronts, and games don't need a catch all launcher.
Yea Forums tier
>what if I gave you a burger made out of shit???
> compete in a way that may allow them to compete
> you have to steal user data, undercut Steam with constant free games, and completely lock down community content/input to compete with Valve, who has done approximately no actual development in a fucking decade
LITERALLY JUST MAKE

AND YOU FUCKING BLOW STEAM OUT OF THE WATER.
>AND YOU FUCKING BLOW STEAM OUT OF THE WATER.
No, no you don't. Frankly, i don't think you even belive what you said
Steam has great features delivered to you via an infrastructure that explodes at the drop of a hat.
Epic has no features delivered to you via an infrastructure that holds together nicely.
Seriously, imagine a steam alternative that:
> Has games
> Offers devs a similar cut of money to Epic
> But without relying on exclusivity
> Has a comparable profile setup without any of the excessive customization
> Has friends, at very least, like Steam, and groups too most likely, rather than expecting people to rely on out of game communication EG discord to coordinate
> Has official forums hosted in the launcher/client
> Has a universal mod/file manager for games whose developers opt in, and a relevant section in the game's forums
Outstanding
This. Why is this so complicated. I just want a basic social structure, so I can chat with random people I friend online once in a while. Discord kinda sucks for in game stuff,
You did good, user.
>2019
>Bum Tickley still does WORDS WORDS WORDS WORDS
Now and forever
>I want to like it, I really do
> Has games
It could have games that GoG have, games that use steamworks need to be ported to be playable on other storefronts. It's semi-exclusivity, as long as steam hold over 90%of market it's pretty much full exclusivity. No one is going to make a version of a game just to sell it on a new storefronts because why the fuck would they?
There was a time when there was like 5 storefronts that were selling 3th games titles. Hell, one of them even wanted to allow us to own games and even trade them. Which is better than any fucking feature other there, and you know what? It's fucking dead
i don't get it
>Food analogy
Has he transcended to an immortal comic artist being?
LOLthread?
Did someone ask for food on a regular plate?
I’ve seen this comic so many times and I still don’t know what that dickgirl is trying to say
That homossexuality is natural and our species doesn't need straight couples to survive
What's inside the rock?
$98 plus tip btw
>food analogy
Fine dining is a fucking joke holy shit
I like how all these people are so fucking new to this game that they are too stupid to understand what happens going forward,
Epic may be better for devs for now but this will change as they grab more market share and slowly but surely their cut will begin to match steams.
This is business, people.
It's not hard to understand and has been going on for a long time.
Anyone remember when you could actually get things on amazon cheaper?
I dont think a lot of people realize that a lot of stuff in stores is close to the same price as amazon now because they have fallen for the game.
It's an old, time tested, trick that people will continue to fall for until they smarten up.
Which will be never.
That’s an IPad
I can see the button
This can’t be real
but what’s the video game filename
Although I do appreciate the meme, food is something that literally every person on the planet has in common.
It's the easiest way to make a metaphor that everyone will understand.
Why did they use nail clippers to attach those Pizza Rolls to cups?
Okay this is where I draw the line
that actually looks cool
>Cooking is art
God I don't know why he still makes his B^U shit.
Anyway, EGS will get my consumership when they manage to integrate steam games. I have over 100 games on Steam and I refuse to just ~move~ to EGS because he's got hamfisted, shortsighted money grabs for games' exclusivity and developer's immediate monetary interests.
more like "cooking is fart"
ahahaha
Okay really, just why?
WHY DOES EVERYONE SAY THAT EPIC GIVES MORE MONEY TO THE DEVELOPERS?
THEY GIVE MORE MONEY TO THE PUBLISHERS. NOT TO THE FUCKING DEVS. STOP THIS NONSENSE. PUBLISHERS GET TO DECIDE IF THE DEV GETS MORE MONEY OR NOT.
Presentation aside, that shits delicious.
the contents of the bowl, sans the burger, are the spyware and telemetry epic has been caught choking your computer with while it runs
the joke doesn't make sense if you pretend epic isn't doing some shady shit behind the scenes, but he could've been more realistic by making the bowl look shabby/broken too, i agree
>Let's just fucking ruin this nice looking curry for art. what's that you want to eat without splinters in your food? Fuck you
You're the type of gorilla nigger that has to have his symbolisms written in binary. We've got thinking more your speed this way bud.
>implying a candle lit resturaunt would serve burgers
also B^D
This is the artist.
I like what they were trying to do, but that's only like 7 pieces of broccoli.
Origin and Uplay have chat features and friend lists. Nobody fucking uses them. Steam added the option to add non-Steam games to Steam, BECAUSE the competition's chat items are so fucking shit. Nobody gives a fuck about all the features Steam has added over the years, exclusives are literally all that matter. It's why Uplay/Origin are around today, and it's why EGS is going to stick around as well.
Is that a fucking floor tile?
>using surfaces not designed to serve food on to serve food on
El Ogro Travestido...
good idea meh execution
TILEFAG, DON'T
>this probably costs $40
You know I always thought this comic’s art style was incredibly unappealing but now I can see how true to life it really is.
the joke is that the father is actually a pussy
>Dad attacks his father for no reason.
>Grandpa didn't even mean anything by what he said and was just being nice
>I'm supposed to feel bad for it after they spell out that the Grandpa didn't do anything wrong.
Sophie is a real fucking basket case, even for a tranny.
>LOL/EGS hate thread turns into fine dine art dump
always nice when this happens
Market segmentation isn't competition, shill rat. DAy of the escalator soon
Is that pillow fucking hovering?!
if it's legitimate tapas then it makes sense, anything else no
Do trannies not want women to grow up big and strong?
Why do people on the internet think the 90s is ancient?
Based and redpilled
Cringe and bluepilled
oh hey that reminds me i have pic related to post
magnets, how do they work
Noice
Uuuuh. Is he implying that women can't be big and strong? Doesn't seem very progressive desu
>girls can't grow up to be big and strong
Well, at least they know their place.
This literally looks like garbage.
For the internet, yes. 1990 was almost 30 years ago now...
I actually eat cereal out of a glass
It's convenient
Not so Suddenly I want to be served food in a woman's shoe/boot.
Why can't hipsters just make their food taste good rather then making it look stupid?
To the imagedumping user: I get the point that you're trying to get across but for the love of God can we have some actual good plating in a fine dining restaurant, all these are just gimmicky middle-of-the-range fare that I didn't even think could exist. This is pub-level garbage so far.
How are you supposed to eat this? I don't want to look stupid if I'm ever in this situation.
>i'm totally not insane i just think my whole genetic code is wrong and i take heavy hormones for ever to disturb that delicate hormonal balance in me! duh!
But that's literally how it is, what the hell is the artist even getting at here?
>inb4 muh Klinefelter
>literal ad hominem is all trannies can come up with
>Thogging
Noice, though you have to do the "lick a dong" part in the actual comic to really work.
This is... bongland food innit? There's so much Brown Sauce.
This looks good
This looks cringe
>Said by a Grade Schooler who literally doesn't know anything about biology
Maybe using kids as your avatar of choice wasn't s a smart Idea when writing about people not understanding science.
You sure this is deconstructed food and not just that the kids area bit mental?
The one on the left looks chromosomally endowed
>one of these edits actually improves the comic
wow
But what the fuck is the “mechanism is nature”? I don’t understand. Did one guy poop out that baby?
>that'll be $12,000+100%tip
There's also XXY, to be fair.
But to be realistic, those are often miscarriages, and even when brought to term, there are serious medical issues if they don't remove one of the sources of hormones. Even when they do the body won't adapt normally and can be excepted to not be able to reproduce and have a shorter life-span.
The one on the right looks like they have even more 'special needs'
They're retarded, man
I FUGGING LOVE FOOD ANALOGYS
I don't get it
Here, Yea Forums, have a genuine tranny meme
Man, I'm a lad who's not averse to dropping 200-300 bucks on tasting menus and even I'd get mad if you plated food like that.
Is this fucking dude still relevant? I've never read once of his comics past the 2010 ones that are reposted constantly.
What part of "they're retarded" don't you get?
