Doubt you’ll get a reply because it is bullshit. I’m not a fan of Epic within the games space and they may not have improved things like the Bandcamp app but to say that it has “gone to shit” under them is just straight idiocy. More accurately they have done nothing to or with band camp really.
Care to elaborate why you’re calling them Evil Games?
They are better for developers via unreal engine.
They are better for both developers and publishers via the markets lowest cut of earnings via their store front.
They pay well to try break steams monopoly. If anything, steam are the bad guys via their extortionate cut. (30%)
They are better for indie Devs on Fortnight compared to Roblox.
They do everything better than most… so place your anger correctly. I’m sick of people hating on epic while they’re the only company trying to beat the monopolys…
That may be so, but they also got deals with quite some games that were supposed to be cross-laumcher to become (timed) Epic exclusive instead. This forces you to use their garbage-teir launcher. Besides that, Epic doesn’t really seem to take any action to help Linux adoption like Steam does. And as a Rocket League fan I’m also specifically pissed about how they have been running my favorite game into the ground slowly.
Epic isn’t trying to beat monopolies, it’s just trying to become another one.
Unfortunately, due to the behaviours of the audience they are trying to gain that is likely the best and cost effective way to gain new users.
But I do totally agree their launcher sucks ass and needs work.
I don’t think you know what monopoly means. Unreal Engine is neat and pushing graphics with every release but Epic store sucks for 1. Paying for exclusives (this is called a monopoly), 2. Having client with terrible and slow UI.
Steam is not a monopoly. It’s just by far the best experience available when buying, selling, and playing games.

Epic Games has literally done nothing with Bandcamp, what are you talking about?

Linux one, I wasn’t aware of but that does suck.
