What, exactly, is “gross” in your opinion? Because it sounds like all you are complaining about is Epic offering a bare-bones platform. Which of course they are doing in order to return more money to developers. If that’s all it is, that is some of the most petty shit that I’ve come across in my life. If not, what…

For all the problems you might have with Epic Games, their store and the corporate entity behind it? The reality is that Steam needs competition if we want the market to flourish rather than to stagnate.
