I know a guy who's been working there for well over a decade, I wonder if he's got any insights on this weird behavior they've been doing. He's got no power over financial decisions, so it's not likely he's got any details.
I understand that Epic funded their project to be an Epic exclusive, but was that a financially sound decision excluding the major market place. Could they not have worked in like a two year or three year exclusive period
and who exactly have they excluded? aside from the steam deck users every steam user can easily use epic game store
Me? Granted I get all their games for free (thanks dude!), but I definitely won't use Epic store. Would have gotten it for free if I used it, though.
