Heh, game publishers are responsible for their decisions, not some "cruel" Epic who seduced little foolish publishers.



Epic is not a virtuous actor since it basically promotes exclusivity - we have seen that for a number of games, and more recently with Rocket League.

Steam, for example, does no do that: you can sell your game on Steam and outside of Steam at the same time and Valve will have no problem with it.


Epic store is better because they're less greedy. I purchase new games in Epic just because I know that this way game developers will get a bigger percent of the money I pay.
