What's your excuse for not migrating now?
>>732315290Unless the fully migrate my steam library, for free, or pay an equivalent sum, there is nothing they can do to get me to move.
>>732315290it's been 8 years
>>732315290Why the fuck would I?
>>732315290I'm already an Epic Chad
Self deprecation for pity points is so 2025.
>>732315290>What's your excuse for not migrating now?
>>732315290Alright OP, I know you are a faggot and muslism cocksucker from the UK, can you get the fuck out of here? Please?
>>732315396>>732315770cultist
>>732315290Workshop
>>732315770Bruh, I've nearly caught up with you with free games on Epic.
>>732315818retardThey are trying to do the same thing but they are 20 years too late.Tim, shut up or pay me. Or trade me your blood-kin.
>>732315290I'm against migration.
>>732315903and it's likely all dogshit that I'd never want to play, what's your point? I've seen the trash epic gives out for free.
>>732316084>and it's likely all dogshit that I'd never want to playLiterally the only bad game in my image is Saints Row 2022, but it's absolutely worth a laugh with a friend whose also a big Saints Row 2 fan.
>>732315290Will they let me migrate all of my 408 games from Steam to there?Will they lower the CPU and memory usage from their launcher?Will they stop sucking the balls of their chinese and jew overlords?
>>732316241Don't forget about their awful monopoly tactics with having 3rd party games to be exclusive of their awful platform
>>732316232go back to your other two threads retard
>>732316309How about no, you crazy dutch bastard.
>>732316232I'd add Borderldands 3 too, that was kinda dogshit, and I'm guessing you've played it in coop too.
>>732315290Steam has been around for like 25 years and is extremely feature richthe more important point though is not that it's just feature rich, but that all of those features have had 20+ years of refinements and tweaks to make them as good as they can be for the user, and when Epic still doesn't have 1/10th of the features Steam has you know that once they start to copy them all of their features are going to be halfassed and shit compared to Steam
>>732316356Borderlands 3 was the first good Borderlands game, but I still had to play it with the voice acting off.
>>732315818>just buy all your shit again bro>BTW we wont allow certain games you like>oh yeah we also wont support linux, too much money for our multi billion dollar epstein style child farm
>>732315818Good morning, saar.
>>732316521>>just buy all your shit again broThat's right. You have to uninstall Steam when you install Epic Store. That's how it works on computers.
>>732315290You shouldn't migrate. You should use both if they meant the launcher good.
What, I should move because they SAY they're going to improve it?Do that first
>>732316084GTA 5, Hogwarts Legacy, Kingdom Come Deliverance, Nioh, Bioshocks etc
>>732315290""""migrating""""...??If they actually try to make the service worth using then that's nice, but it's not as if I'm going to delete my Steam account with hundreds of games just because another thing got less awful. And yes, I already have hundreds of (free) games on Epic Games Store too. I don't have to pick one.I'm probably going to continue spending more money on Steam just because the unbeatable Linux support makes it more convenient, but I also use Itch.io and GOG. There's no "migrating".
>>732316384No, the real reason is that Steam has a network effect going on. Steam has to royally fuck up for anybody else to even have a chance to compete. Look at Windows vs Linux. One of these is completely free and a more stable operating system, yet people keep using Windows.
>>732316232Every single game on this list is absolute dogshit lmfao
>>732317206Now you're just being contrarian.
>>732315290Because it still sucks, you retarded troglodyte, and the notion that it will be better in the summer is merely a claim.
>>732317250It's called "not having atrocious taste"
>>732317393Some of my favorite games include Max Payne 1, Max Payne 2, Dark Souls 1, Grim Fandango, The Darkness 1 and Resident Evil 2 (OG, never remake)Now where's your taste.
>>732315290Is OP an epic marketer, or some dude trying to protect the Rothchild patent spammer or something?
>>732317495You don't know shit until you've played Pong: The Next Level for the PS1
>>732315290I don't like timmy tencent
>>732318097great taste, breakout is also great. while not as good frogger 2 is fun
>>732315290ITS NOT ABOUT NAVIGATIONITS ABOUT WHY THE FUCK CANT I MESSAGE PEOPLE ON MY FRIENDS LIST
>>732318097>PonqWhat the hell is this. I know Pong, but not Ponq.
i've always used every platform and bought games wherever they were cheapest. ea app, ubisoft connect, steam, egs, gog, rockstar launcher, xbox, whatever. don't care about library consolidation or anything else. only cost.
>>732315290Not a big fan of poo.
>>732315290I have no desire to download Chinese spyware on my computer and what Epic offers dosnt remotely justify the risk.
>>732315290a common complaint i hear about every launcher is that it suck for some unexplainable reason that no one ever specifies. ive had no problems with any of them. I hit download and the game downloads and I play the games. but in any game with lots of mods, its always steam users that are constantly moaning about automatic updates breaking their mods because the launcher is childproofed to make it difficult to stop updates. but Steam is apparently the gold standard.
>>732318340HAHAHAH anon you are so funny XD how do you come up with witty jokes like that?
>>732315903and that's why nobody spends money there egs is where you go when you to want a) play fortnite or b) claim free games you already pirated 5++ years ago
>>732318539Ponq fan over here SEETHING
>>732318737but i said I liked your joke :S XS
>>732315818>wanting to still play the games you've already bought is cultistEnjoy your dead community lmfaoooo
>>732315290Too little too late.
Reminder that it took 7 YEARS for Epic to finally admit that their launcher is shit and that they actually have to compete with the Steam launchers features Reminder that paid EGS shills spent years saying steam is bloated and that their features are shit Reminder that Epic lost BILLIONS from the recent indie friendslop genre that made Valve 8 billion
>>732320815Took 4 years to get a fuicking CART. ON A STORE.
>>732320815in the meantime they made a mobile store app with no game library :^)
>>732319189 You were being sarcastic and got caught in 4K. Ponqchads don’t forget, Ponqchads don’t forgive. Next time bring a betterslop to the table or prepare for the curveball mode.
>>732315290I've never be betrayed on a refund request despite being out of the specified parameters multiple times. Just weaseled out of the ashes of creation rug pull with my money thanks to gaben and I havnt learned a thing, lmaaaaooooo. I can't let that go unrewarded.
I will migrate when its client achieve function parity. But right now? No way.
>>732316819Games I already owned before they were free on epic and bought on discount. Wow, riveting.>>732316232>>732315903>here's my coupon book and the food from behind a walmart dumpster, sucker!
>>732323471>and bought on discount. Wow, riveting.>bought on discountSo you admit to wasting money -- including Hogwart's Legacy of all things.
>>732318097Peak taste anon right here.
>>732315290Their history of store exclusive dealsYou see anon, I want them to fail for forcing me to wait for FF7 for months after it was exclusively released on their store
>>732324925Alright lets see Half Life 2 on GOG or Left 4 Dead 2 on Epic
>>732315290Because the launcher sucks
>>732315396this
>>732320815>steam is bloatedIt really is, though. And gets worse with each update.
>>732316902>tweaks to make them as good as they can be for the userIn a windows vs linux comparison, this is the reason and perhaps always will be. Certainly for the forseeable future at least. The average user doesn't know how to install an operating system to begin with. It comes pre-installed on their prebuilt/laptop. Asking them to ditch windows and install linux is a near-impossible ask right out the gate, before you even get to what you actually use the computer to do.It's always crazy to me how many linuxfags don't understand this.
>>732315290Launcher sucks, store sucks, free games are AAA slop, no decent indie titles, no porn
>>732315523>EGS has been a thing for 8 years alreadywhere did the fucking time go
>>732315290>improvements only coming may/junehow the fuck has it taken so long when their launcher is a skeleton already.
>>732316293>having 3rd party games to be exclusive on their platformIt's only bad when Epic does it! But when literally all games are exclusives on Steam, then it's totally okay!
>>732326323literally works on my machine
EGS has had a bug for years that somehow prevents your monitors from going into standby if a download is active. It's not a showstopping bug, but it's really annoying.
>>732315396Steamie chud cultist
>>732315290Weird I just saw something earlier today that the next gen xbox 'might have an epic store launcher on it'
At this point, Tim Sweeney deserves every single ounce of hate his punchable face gets.
>What's your excuse for not migrating now?The launcher sucks. Says so right there.
>>732315290I use Playnight to manage my library for convenience and I don't want console war style faggotry on PC.
>>732316521>againThis is the kind of people that migrated from consoles when Xbox died
>>732315290EGS started by trying to cut the consumer out of the equation with loss leading tactics and force people to go to there instead of other marketplaces, a monopolistic practise which has always resulted in a massive hike once the market position is secure. When Tim demonstrates that he’s not ultimately planning to rugpull the consumer after subverting the market leader status, I might consider it.
>>732316401W-why did you hide the play time?
>>732315290I already use Steam and GOG. I don't want another launcher made by a notorious pdf file.
>>732315290>present tenselets start when this is past tense. they need to support linux, and they need to give back my account which owned games that they decided to permanently lock because i was 'inactive'
>>732315290>Shit on users asking for basic features for years>uhh it was all a prank bro! Nah Tim Sweeney can rot in hell.
ban steam/gog/egs threadsthis isn't video games this is just fanaticism and advertising
>>732327632When a game is exclusive to steam, that's almost always the dev/publisher's choice, unless there's some obscure technical reason it'll only work with steam's infrastructure. Literally done for free despite the fact steam will let them sell elsewhere if they want.Meanwhile Timmy throws money at people to shut out all other storefronts for 1-2 years. And hilariously, people still would rather wait to get the game somewhere else.
>>732330985>steam will let them sell elsewhere if they wantOr do they? The whole courtcase is basically about this. Valve demands that the game is most readily available (and cheapest) on Steam, "or else".
>>732315290>"It should start to feel good, be faster and people be like, 'Holy shit. It doesn't suck so much.' And that will be a win for us."KEK the problem isn't that you wait a bit long interacting with your pathetic excuse for a store Timmy. Even if you had the fastest responsiveness ever achieved that doesn't change all the other glaring issues you have. He gets more retarded by the day it's insane.Your store will NEVER be more than Fortnite Hub and free games central and it warms my heart.
>>732331226There are too many examples of games being cheaper outside of Steam for me to point to though?
>>732331869Yeah, I guess I just have to trust you, bro. :(
>>732331942Just check Is There Any Deal?On like literally any game.
>>732316232>that list of "good games"anon... please don't embarass yourself further, it's painful to watch...
>>732332343Yeah, they did.
>>732332003Are these some sort of keyselling sites? Or what? Most of them have "Steam" marked underneath. So they are not actually different stores/platforms?GreenManGaming is the only one I've used, and they simply just sell Steam games.The question is: would Steam allow someone to sell a game on their own platform AND on Steam - but with different pricing points? (To circumvent the 30% cut that Valve takes.) The answer seems to be "no".
>>732315290Epic Store will not be able to survive unless it gets a healthy number of migrants and refugees from Steam. It's necessary for the growth of the Epic Store to recieve migrants so the pyramid scheme system doesn't collapse and the inhabitants of the Epic Store have to get used to welcoming immigrants and refugees and integrating them into the system as well as preserving diversity and their unique cultures and showing them respect. There can be no Epic Games in the future without Steam migrants, it's necessary. It's not a great replacement, it's just making something even grander and bigger, as we are all united in our differences. Epic Games needs migrants from Steam, GOG, Itch.io, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo, and they will make up majority of it's population in the future, and that's a good thing.
>>732326323Go on anon. Explain to us right now, using your own words, how steam is bloated.
>>732332395>would Steam allow someone to sell a game on their own platform AND on Steam - but with different pricing points?
>>732315290I'd rather own my games. Modern gaming is more and more as the years go by pretty much for pay pigs that fell for the "premium gaming" meme, which is why instead of getting a switch 2, or waiting for the next PS or XB, I'm enjoying the entire 64 library on my analogue.
>>732332442The UI is a mess and the load times have incresed over the years. And these are just objective facts.
>>732332528So... that's 3.05 versus 2.57? I'm not convinced by this at all.Find me a game where the difference is closer to 30% and it might mean something.
>>732332604Cultist
When will they understand I don't care about Steam as a platform, I only buy shit there because it's cheaperIf epic wants my money, they need to compete with them
>>732315290It's a shit store that is going to ruin gaming at record speed.
>>732332817>retard thinks corpos would actually pass all or most of the savings to the customers>EVERNot even shit that moved to EGS got cheaper based on their lower percentages.
>>732335208>retard thinks Steam doesn't have devs by the ballsWhatever, cultist. But if Valve loses the courtcase, we WILL see price differences.
>>732315290Because it doesn't have the workshop. I play map games and Rimworld, it's way too convenient despite its imperfections.
Tim Sweeney is a lolcow.
Trying to compete with Steam in the same market using the same strategies but worse in every way is not a good idea.There are two ways out: the first is to explore niches (see how well dlsite does because it specializes in Japanese hentai games that are not accepted almost anywhere else, and see how American corporations have been trying to destroy the site).The second is to create something for the extremely long term in an attempt to start capturing new audiences, very young children who don't yet have libraries on Steam, so that in 15 or 20 years you will have a solid base.But imagine trying to explain to your shareholders that you're trying something new, that there's no guarantee it will work, and that it will take 20 years to bear fruit... It's easier to convince them that it's a good idea to bury their money in a failed Steam clone.
Even if they clone Steam to the very last detail just swapping out the Valve logo for the EPIC one, I don't care.A) I already fucking have a Steam libraryandB) Gabe Newell vs. Tencent and the Chinese Communist Party isn't even a contest.It's like asking me if I want chocolate ice cream or a pile of goose shit.
>>732336541>in 15 or 20 yearsYou don't need timeframes this big with kids. To them even 5 years is a huge deal. If we are talking about preteens and tweens.
>>732315290The website doesn't even allow you to view games you own
>>732336606>I already fucking have a Steam libraryWhy do steamies keep repeating this? Did you know that you can have libraries on several platforms?
>>732315290It sucks ass and the company is hostile to my interests as a customer.
>>732315290All else aside, I don't trust them to make it useable by summer, or indeed for at least 2+ years. By that time any desire at all to check it out will have left me.Also, Tim is dumb bastard, he can rot
>>732315290Doesn't run on LinuxTimmy tencent is less trustworthy than both gaben and the GOGniggers
>>732316596Why the fuck would I use another storefront when steam already has my entire library and every game I am interested in is released on it?Why would I need to bother installing something else?
>>732332646>objective factsBecause you say so? For me it's improved in performance and the UI is way better than it used to be. Show me some objective facts that it's worse
>>732315290>give devs more money>dont give ME a discountlol
>>732315290Epic is truly awful so they won't have to look for to find shit to improve. Right now if you own a game on epic that has DLC you can't actually see which ones you own. You have to individually click and load each DLC's page until you find one that says "in library" It's a huge pain in the ass if you buy some dirt cheap bundle and have no clue which of the 12 dlc came with it.
Remove the spyware next
Only a complete subhuman retard golem OR a paid shill would not be capable/willing to understand not wanting to buy the games I already own in one store again from another for 0 benefit.
>>732315290I'm against immigration in general
>>732338565For me it just loads worse, and I greatly dislike the current way of adding games to folders, or what ever they are called now. It used to be simpler.I've also always hated how some of the functions - like comparing your cheevos to your friends' ones - are buried so deep in menues.
>>732315903A single Steam key of picrel is worth more than your Epic account
>>732315290It still sucks
>>732332442They took away small mode when they made the full transition to making the store Chromium based. There's no way to just have your library without launching Chromium and you know how much Chrome loves to eat RAM
>>732339904What's so special about that...? I didn't like it. Overrated game.
>>732315290Epic Game Store doesn't have support for my car like Steam does
>>732315290Timmy, Timmy, Timmy, can't you see?We play our games, just not for freeAnd I just hate your jewish waysGuess that's why you broke, and Gabe so paid
>>732340558oh look, the fartnite ebin games store kid got filtered by casual souls 1, KEK
>>732315818cuckold
>>732315290>migratingWhy would I stop using one launcher to use another? That doesn't make sense.
>>732316521>>oh yeah we also wont support linuxGood. Use a real operating system you fucking tranny.
>>732315290I hate migrants
>>732316902Windows has better compatibility, even across completely different windows versions. Linux runs into compatibility issues across versions of the same distro.>>732324947Valve developed and published those, they're entitled to have it exclusively on their platform.
>>732315290LOL, i will never leave Steam and GOG.
>>732315818retard
>>732332646They're using Chromium, what more could you ask for? Anyway, if you have a reasonably decent PC, you won't have any problems.Not like with the Epic Games Store, which is slow and downloads slowly no matter what PC you have
>>732316232>Only 5 games have achievements.The fact that there is no controller support or cloud save for all games puts me off
lmao fuck off Tim
