And Steam would be able to turn around and undercut them. Video game companies wouldn’t like  it, it would be unsustainable in the long run and wouldn’t have the same impact as exclusives. 

The original series is an absolute joy to watch. 

I think Dido might be the most obscure.

Is that with Dr. Laura Berman?

How do you burry the lead in the fricking headline?! I mean, talk about the wall of weird...

Its still bullshit though. I'm willing to put up with cosmetic stuff and would have no problem with repair kits if Fallout 76 was free. But for a game I payed real money for this is the limit.

To p2w or not p2w. That is the question.

Yeah if they go ahead with this I’m out. I put up with a lot on Fallout 76 but this would be it for me.

It's literally censorship!

Except Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo has also payed third party developers to develop exclusive games for their consoles. Yeah Epic getting exclusive deals for games that were announced for Steam originally was kind of a dick move but they also don't have much a choice.

What's so wrong about that? Again, it's free. 

How does it effect you as a consumer though. It's a free storefront you don't have to pay for.

It also means a lot games that wouldn't have been made got made. 

Part of the problem is that Epic Store is shit. If they had launched with more features I don't think the backlash would be as strong.

I’m not sticking up for Epic, I just think a lot for the anger is way overboard. So you have to have another account to keep track of. How many streaming services, forums, digital storefronts are we all signed up for now? Just off the top of my head it’s 11. What’s one more exactly? And I’m sorry but that’s the price…

But security isn't great on Steam either. Plus is Steam's layout much better. I actually find it hard to find any quality content unless I'm specifically looking for one game. Plus review bombing is an issue. I don't want to Waid through the "I don't like this dev being a SJW" reviews to get to the ones with actual…

That's fair.

I'm not convinced Steam is a good prospect to release a game on anymore. Most major releases can survive on their own launchers and most Indies are burrows under shit and asset flips.

Its absolutely legitimate to complain about the lack of features. They have the money to make something at least comparable to Steam.

...didn’t it?
