God, you’re wrong on so many levels. Not good for crowdfunding? Yes, I’m sure that millions of people are going to hover their pointers over the “back this project” button, then say to themselves, “y’know, 2.5 years from now I might end up having to download and use a marginally worse launcher to play this” and then…

In before reading:

We literally just did, Y3 should be available now, Y4 is coming later this year and Y5 at the beginning of next year, also coupled with a combined collectors edition once all of them are out (that include a PS3 case for Y5).

All of the numbered remastered/ported PS4 Yakuza game should be available in the West soon,…

Now something interesting that got pointed out from this video is the game DARQ which did NOT want to be an Epic Store exclusive, which resulted in an interesting response from Epic

If you consider the email that Unfold shared from Epic to be strong-arming then I don’t know. They were straight forward about their intentions and their limitations. I did not see anything that seemed devious, or coercive.

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…

Because gamers™ are equating a slightly feature barren storefront to the worst transgression that could be committed by anyone ever.

Nah I am fully okay with Epic having some kind of content curation. I do think that they would be wise to have a path for indie devs to make an application to sell sooner rather than later. But their objectives of securing exclusive content, especially from indies, has been clear from day one. I don’t mind having to…

That is lie or you just don't read kotaku that much because there have been many articles written here criticizing the Epic game store..

Nice of you to quote the dev, but then recontextualise Epic’s very reasonable and straight forward response so as to make it seem more sinister. They are as free to conduct and curate their storefront as Unfold is to choose where to sell, and who to do business with. The free market has always been the platform, not…

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.

You are like a poster boy if the “They pissed of the wrong people, they pissed of gamers meme”. It would be funny if it wasnt so sad. “Fellow gamer” indeed!

it’s really easy to defend it when the alternative is siding with people like you

The Epic Game Store is the current cool thing to hate, in a similar way to Battlefront II on release or other similar games. Like those, it’s marred by a huge amount of misinformation and literally everything connected to the current object of the Two Minute Hate has to be attacked and taken in the worst possible…

Evil? How old are you, 12?

How is bring a game to the Epic Store under any condition “screwing over the fans” exactly?

Whoa this is my level, nice!
I also make Mario Maker 2 videos of various types at my YT channel:

Good points. This idea that poverty is the result of overspending (and not under-earning) underpins another classic right-of-center saw: if the government is broke, the only solution is to behave like a (good) broke family and cut expenses to the bone. But the government and its individual citizens aren’t in the same…

Additionally, the first year worth of content is going free to play at the same time, so you’ll get the base game and first two expansions (Curse of Osiris and Warmind).

Maybe you’re confused - Bungie has never used that argument to justify anything. The main reason people know about Bungie’s slow tools is because of Kotaku’s reporting on Destiny’s problems, which is certainly not sanctioned by the studio or its management. Outside of a few granular GDC talks (which are a far cry from…
