My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.

Theyβre so desperate to make their store front a thing π
It is hilarious.
Epic tried getting users by giving them free games. But that didn't translate to increased sales. And now they are trying to woo developers to abandon Steam, hoping that way customers will be forced to buy from Epic.
They don't understand that developers are on Steam because customers are there. And what does a customer get when they use Epic over Steam?
I just deny the existence of any game that is an Epic Games exclusive title.
Yeah yeah, what about making the EGS program not suck for customers? An overglorified browser running on top of unreal engine, no user reviews for games...
Unreal Engine could've got us, like, Unreal Tournament. It almost did, in fact, it a little.
Die in eternal fire Epic
That's pretty cool, actually. Sorely needed in the current economic climate. Good for them.
I wish their software and platform were a lot better to go along with this, but in isolation this is great.
Sounds like it's time to play through the free games I got before epic folds like a card table and revokes my access to them.
In a sane world, the library could host the people's digital store front with no cuts taken from the sales. Gaming is our culture, we should preserve it. We should collectively own it. We should be free to sell the games without a middleman taking a cut.
How are they affording this? It can't be a sustainable model, right?
Easy. On EGS most games don't sell at all, so 0% of $0 is still $0. They get most of their money from Fortnite.
Is this an apology for the bad performance issues of UE5?
Fortnite kids will sustain them. Gotta darken those patterns just a little...
