Can't hear about Epic without remembering that hideous ad they ran about how Apple giving them most of the Fortnite money instead of all of the Fortnite money was basically 1984, at the height of the BLM movement no less. Epic can go fuck itself.

Whaaaa. The same company that pays for publishing exclusivity contracts while claiming a competing game storefront is being anticompetitive by abusing their position to... *checks notes* charge the same 30% fee as Microsoft and Sony, who also provide a digital download CDN, social platform, and game services? I'm shocked! /s

Not to say that the 30% fee is fair to small devs, but really... hypocrisy isn't a good look.
