Nothing more disappointing to me than seeing a game I might enjoy... and then it's only available on PC on Epic Games store. Why can't it be available on Epic, Xbox game store and Steam? It's so annoying, like you have no choice but to use Epic... which I would literally do ANYTHING not to use.

Steam, Epic, GOG, it’s all the same to me. I’m not gonna fanboy over one platform and miss out on a game. That’s just ridiculous.

I think don't it's as much fanboyism over steam and more unfanboyism over epic games

Still stupid as fuck, considering you don’t even need to use the Epic launcher for Epic games.

That's literally the point of their Launcher.... DRM.

No, that’s good DRM. You shouldn’t criticize the benevolent GabeN, may his corporate monopoly last forever.

Praise be!

And mods, friends, groups, community groups, server management and link to external games....

Steam offers more than just DRM...

What’s your point? Why would that matter if I’m not using their launcher when I play games from the Epic store? Just don’t use the Epic launcher. It’s not rocket science.
