Fuck Epic Games.
Fuck Apple too, but especially fuck Epic.
Not a fan of epic? Why’s that?
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.
Fuck epic for ruining rocket league
And the Unreal franchise.
Very Apple of them. As if they were the first.
Apple is horrible to work with as a dev. Some friends and I released an indie mobile game a while back and the approval process was full of such petty stuff that we had to explain to them why it was fine again and again. They suck.
For bonus points, you’ll have to re-explain some of those things randomly to publish updates, which they now require about every 2 years or less or your game just disappears.
