Basically, it boils down to them trying to “compete” with steam by either bribing devs to release exclusively on their store, or straight up buying devs and not releasing (or removing) games on steam. It’s a shitty way to do business, and I won’t encourage it by patronizing them.
GoG and Humble don’t have to resort to that kind of BS. Hell, even Microsoft and Sony are opening up more to each other and PC (often via steam, though Microsoft also uses their own store).
Epic is running in the wrong direction, and it’s not-at-all for the high-ideal BS they spout about Steam being a monopoly (especially since it isn’t, not by a long shot). It’s naked self-interest, and it disgusts me.
Not a fan of epic? Why’s that?
