https://gamesbeat.com/epic-games-ceo-tim-sweeney-calls-for-team-open-to-address-game-industrys-challenges/>At the close of The State of Unreal keynote in Chicago, Tim Sweeney addressed what he called a “time of crisis and also opportunity” in the game industry.>He called out new threats of closed ecosystems like Roblox, and one of his solutions is to call for Team Open, an alliance of game companies that could set things right. Sweeney was, as ever, provocative in his words as he ended the keynote that kicked off Unreal Fest.>Sweeney said, “To overcome these trends, the game industry, whether we like it or not, is reorganizing itself, and there are kind of two big predictions for the future as these problems reverberate throughout the industry. One view of the future is that Roblox grows and eats gaming.”>He added, “A lot of people are saying this online, but what you have there is a centralized platform with a single keeper that commoditizes all content, takes more than 70% of revenue, and has 450 million users on board. That’s a real challenge to game developers.”>First Valve>Then Apple>Now RobloxWhy is Timmy so angry and spiteful?
He's extremely based. I haven't a clue why gamers become tsundere near him.
>>741309720>pedos vs chinksit doesn't matter who wins, we lose
Roblox can solo timmy.
Roblox is a niche for young poor gamers. Just like how 90% of phone games are for women that like puzzles. They both makes obscene amounts of money but aren't taking any away from the people developing "real" games.
Younger Zoomers are playing Roblox instead of Fortnite now, so he's not making as many V-Bux as he used to. This has caused Tim to declare a vendetta against Roblox in the same way he hires jeet spam farms to constantly cry about Steam and then Apple. He's a greedy, lazy corpo who feels entitled to a big slice of pies that he didn't do shit to bake.
>>741309720>>He added, “A lot of people are saying this online, but what you have there is a centralized platform with a single keeper that commoditizes all content, takes more than 70% of revenue, and has 450 million users on board.

>pedo vs pedoI pray they both take each other out
does this cornball not know much he takes from fortnite creators
WHY AM I NOT MAKING AS MUCH MONEY AS OTHERS IT IS SO UNFAIR
>>741310038Considering he's trying his best to make Fortnite look like Roblox 2.0, I think he's just jealous.
>>741309961Kids playing on Roblox won't turn into adults buying vydia, they will either stay in Roblox as child predators or just abandon vydia.
>>741310038No, Roblox has literal child slave game developers that can put out endless slop and cash in without any work on their end. Fortnite WISHED they had that.
>>741309848Because we know who he is? He straight up wanted PC gaming dead for years.
>>741309961>Roblox is a niche for young poor gamersRoblox has utterly devoured gaming, it's not just young people.People get into videogames when they are young, and multiple generations of garbage(and requires expensive consoles/PCs) games while Roblox is free and on phones has led to generations who have never played a single videogame, only play roblox on their phone, and just watch streamers play real games.Long term, this will destroy videogames.
>>741309720When will this guy learn that he cannot sue his way into being successful?
>>741309720Does literally all this guy do is talk about how other successful companies owe him their money?There's a word for someone like this... hmm... someone help me out here...
>>741309961>>741310335It's almost an understatement: Roblox by itself as one platform has several orders of magnitude more players than Steam or any console.
>>741309720>man who wanted the only open plattform to be dead (PC) and then tried to bribe devs into only using his digital store now pretends to care about open plattformsIt's like this retard honestly thinks we foget such things.
>>741310335There are a lot of indie and real games made for children that do very well. Mainly pushed by streamers.The "game journalists" and "game industry" and AAA streamer DAMNED sure aren't able to get anyone excited and are more about being the compensated marketing arm of AAA slop.The problem is they can't sell it and the people in charge don't want too. They are paid tons by social engineers to make games no one wants to play.
>>741309720Because he wasted millions upon millions of dollars on trying to go after Apple, and when he finally won, it was already too lateHe's been trying to add more and more Roblox shit to Fortnite for the past year and a half now, but nothing is working, the player count for Fortnite keeps dropping, so now he's forcing a bunch of AI generated creative slop content onto people and wondering why it's not saving his game
>>741309720Epic Games is failing so he goes against everyone who he thinks is eating his pie. They already laid lot of people off and raised lot of money. I would not be surprised that they already burned lot of that money, and now credit market is quite dry so he cant get more money so its desperation mode. It is interesting to see what will happen, as also AI cost is increasing and they bet the whole engine on this. No doubt they are thinking that they will try to monetize some AI usage so that they would get even some revenue from the slop factory users.Its funny that he lists these enemies while at same time trying to push for UE as slop machine, and push gaming market more to some factory mentality products.
>>741309720isnt he trying to do the same thing with Fortshit?
>>741310494It's hilarious that Nintendo had the right idea but because they are still terrified of online and have priced themselves out of being a relatively inexpensive toy for consumers and subsidize the costs with games they'll never achieve it. They should have built their safe child and family friendly walled garden decades ago and bought up sega capcom and konami when they were cheap.
>>741310335>Long term, this will destroy videogames.I don't see the problem
>>741310494Roblox is bigger than Steam, Playstation, Nintendo, Xbox, Fortnite, Call of Duty and Grand Theft Auto combined.
>>741310717You see, it's only bad when somebody else is doing it.
>>741309720He's extremely retarded.This guy is seething with jealousy left and right and fired 1000 people and still is trying to appear to be a morally superior person.He is your typical tip of the bell curve nerd. Smarter than the average person, but was definitely outshined by his actual peers. This guy definitely walked around school while getting bullied and told people "...one day I'm gonna be your boss..." laughable lil nigga, his hubris knows no bounds.
>>741310873it's so weird because i never seen or talked to someone who played it. no one ever talks about it either.
>>741310328You have to understand that for these zoomers PC gaming didn't exist before fortnite
>>741309848>I haven't a clue why gamers become tsundere near him.Epic has been litigating instead of competing. They have been leaning on Fortnite as their sole source of funding for ages. They introduced realtime-everything in UE5, which has tanked performance in thousands of games while providing no benefit to visuals. Through all these bad decisions, they have laid off thousands of employees.Epic is a really bad company, and it's his company.
>>741309848>Killed and delisted Unreal Tournament>Made Rocket League unplayable >Hated PC gaming then cried about it when Gabe made it profitable >Tried to undercut Steam with exclusive deals after shitting on PC gaming>Complained about Linux being too based>Spent all his Fagnite money on giving out free games to gibsmedat tards>Got mad at apple for telling him to fuck off with his gae Indian money laundering>Killed Shumae>Made Unreal Engine into an asset swapping gen A.I. slopfest>Afraid to admit he's gae so he just stays single til death> Climbs trees
>>741309848Can you imagine how unfathomably based things would be if Sweeney and Newell could actually find a way to collaborate for the better of the entire games industry *and* consumers? For fuck's sake ... why can't we ever have nice things?
Never forget he paid obscene amounts of money to restrict your choices rather than make his platform appealing in any way.
>>741310986The soudntracks of some roblox games has over 10 million views on youtube.Roblox is beyond massive and we just don't know about it because it's a completely different generation completely divorced from your usual videogame discussions.
>>741311168He keeps winning court cases because hes right, fuck anti-market companies
>>741309848kill yourself sweeney
>>741311339Sweeney declared PC dead and didn't even release their games on PC at one point.Epic didn't even bother with PC anymore, then Sweeney saw Gabe raking in the money for sticking with PC and he got buttmad.
>>741309720>Makes one highly successful liveservice game>His company literally produces nothing else for the next decade What's this phenomenon called? I know Epic also gets royalties from Unreal, but surely they don't think Fortnite is going to last forever.
>>741309720>threats of closed ecosystems like Robloxjesus christ this guy is a madman. loads of games before roblox had 'closed ecosystems' of custom maps and modes. WC3 spawned like a dozen different games. he just doesn't care about those ones because they don't sell premium currencytimmy's so ridiculous
>>741311354The most hilarious shit was Kingdom Hearts>EGS had Kingdom Hearts first on PC for years>No one cares>Kingdom Hearts gets announced for Steam>MASSIVE fucking celebrations across the entire internet>People jumping for joy up and down, hugging and fucking each other>Pretty sure that Nomura himself drew a piece of special celebration art, but I could be mistaken>Gets announced that there will be HD enhancements, etc. galore>All Timmy can do is seethe uncontrollably
>>741309720>ate the game industry with Fortnite>called out Roblox as eating the game industry>How dare fancy new thing take away from my sweet gravy train?It's astounding what a vile little rat he always is, holy shit.
Fortnite is never going to beat Roblox just for the simple fact that Roblox can run on literally anything while Fortnite is UE5 (soon to be 6)
>someone who plays roblox would spend thousands on AAA games if roblox didn't existbig shill hours right now
>>741309720Steam I get sorta, but seriously he's complaining about Roblox having a monopoly now too?How about fuck the game devs and make good games people care about
>>741309720>Why is Timmy so angry and spiteful?he wanted FortNite to eat the game industry but it choked
>>741311319One story to list is their battle against Unity. They specifically had some cut throat strategy planned. They reduce their revenue share % with intention that if Unity reacts to that by lowering their price, Epic would reduce % even more undermining Unity. Well lucky for Unity they did not lower their price, else they would have been in deep shit.Sweeney is acting all nice and utilitarian, but they are running some cut throat business.
>>741309720Roblox has been around for like 20 years. Interesting how it wasn't a problem for some reason until now.Roblox is the single most powerful video game entity in the history of the mediumTimmy fears it.Timmy has good reason to.It has the strength to snuff out and end.
>>741311906dude, he's a commieweaponized envy is all he has
>>741309720Tim could steal Roblox's core audience by allowing condo games on Fortnite.
>>741311479>fuck anti-market companiesApple and Valve created those markets, you fucking fruitcake
>>741311793He is so duplicitous yet also so obvious about it. He has zero qualms using scummy lawfare to gain an unfair advantage which he pretends is somehow improving the industry. It's always just self-centeredness on his fucking mind.
Reminder Sweeney is just seething that Fortnite lost to Roblox LMAO
>>741311906>he's complaining about Roblox having a monopoly now too?Roblox is a big reason Fortnite started declining last year. Their player numbers dropped 30% in 2025 while Roblox was doing nearly 50 million concurrent at its peak.
>>741309720He is right that Roblox is a cancer, the problem is that he is the last person that should be voicing that opinion
>>741312315Roblox is also vast majority third-worlders, so him getting hung up over something so trivial is hilarious.
>>741309720Love this guy. Thanks Tim for the free games
>>741312402Reminder that whenever there's a free game on EGS, that game sees a 200% increase in sales on Steam
>>741311658>I know Epic also gets royalties from Unrealepic games doesn't make much from unreal royalties. i think the store is operating at a loss too.
>>741309848OP also forgot one more: Sweeney is pro-SKG and was the first to call-out that the ESA's responses to the SKG campaign were full of shit and not acting in accordance with the position of the companies it is meant to represent, or acting on the matter with their blessing and mandate at all. Sweeney was the first to disclose that they weren't asked; that there'd been no vote; and that the ESA was acting on the authority of a few of its governing board members alone - i.e. acting in the sole interests of the few companies that delivered those board members. (You know: EA, Ubisoft, etc. The usual suspects.)
>>741309720You didn't prove him wrong though, steamie
Uh huh.Reminder that this is the same Timmy that wants Fortnite to replace Roblox instead.
>>741312543No one gives a fuck about your pandering virtue signaling bullshit, Timmy
>>741309720>Tim Sweeney adds Roblox to his enemies listIt should be on everybody's enemies lists. It's an enemy of mankind itself. Roblox is worse for children than actual hard drugs. I would literally rather my children did meth than allow them to play Roblox.
>>741312669He's literally just upset that it isn't him. He's the definition of a cuckold.
explain to me why Roblox should be my enemy while Fortnite isntwhy would i want every developer to shift to unreal?Well?
>>741310241>>741310335The truth is, kids grow up and develop new interests, including getting interested in actual games after years of the same shit. The 11 year old playing Roblox now won't be playing it at 21. I used to play Minecraft like crazy when I was like 12, now I would not touch it unless I was forced to.Kids play it because their friends do, but once they grow up and one guy in the group doesn't want to play it anymore, the entire group eventually stops playing it.
>>741312361>kiddie game dev mad that newer kiddie game dev stealing his kiddies playerbase
>>741312682You couldn't be anymore of an obvious shill if you tried.
>>741312803Uhhhhh becauae roblox grooming gangs uhhh
>>741312510epic's free games don't come with dlc either i remember being interested cause they said darkest dungeon was free then finding out it didn't come with any of em and if i'm going to need to pay for the dlc i'd be better off just buying it on a steam sale or pirating.
>>741309848He's only mad because Roblox did what Fortnite failed. Shut up pajeet
Tim can say whatever the fuck he wants. Could even be true. But the fact is he only ever says anything in order to benefit himself and only himself, so anything he says is purely a performance with ulterior motives. Just shut up and earn those fortnite bucks, Tim.
As usual, Timmy is only seething because Fortnite isn't Roblox, which is why he's trying to turn it into Roblox
>>741312832>grow up and develop new interestsDid you?
Fortnite is quite literally the only reason why anyone installs EGSReminder that the Steam version of Rocket League still consistently gets around 28k players daily, despite being removed from Steam 6 years ago.
>>741309961This is where Timmy fucked up with Fortnite. Made it unaccessible to kids with shitty devices.
>>741311319Thought there was a black guy holding an egg in the thumbnail
>>741313062Yes
>>741313089Thats the funniest part fortnite basically lost all ground on mobile because of his retarded lawfareSo both Roblox AND fucking PUBG mobile lmao mogged it
>>741312396Must be rich third worlders because roblox is making as much money as the rest of the industry combined
>>741310657Imagine getting the kind of cashflow Fortnite brought in at its peak and all you could think to do with it was set fire to it with petty legal battles and freebies for your failing digital storefront.
>>741310657Timmy needs to take the gooner angle. Latest popular skins show this is what players want (pic related). Can guarantee it'll return in favour with the upcoming generations too since they'll be raised by sterile zoomers who were/are anti gooner.
Sweeney deserves more recognition for his l33t programming skillz. He kicked ass back in the day just like Carmack.
>>741313152Then why are you here, posting memes from a decade ago
>>>/twatter/faggot retard jew
>>741313269Fuck off cringe retard, never reply to me ever again and stay in /fng/ where all the rest of you trannies stay
Roblox
>>741311765>>EGS had Kingdom Hearts first on PC for years>>No one caresThere's a missing step here, they split them up AND priced them at premium rates to exploit that at the time of signing EGS exclusivity was a sales guarantee. They were triple-dipping Epic on an already inflated price.
>>741309720Does this guy just hate any company bigger than his?
It’s up>>741312892>>741312892>>741312892
What the fuck is roblox about and why are all the toddlers playing it?
>>741313513Square was quite shrewd to do that. Tim's ongoing spat against Steam's policy basically proved why Steam had said policies, cuz developers are not angels and will exploit any loophole to sidestep fees or flat out rob the platform blind.
>>741309720>calls out Roblox for being too big of a competitor>doesn't call out Robolox for knowingly putting in systems that sexual predators can use to go after childrenReally says a lot about ol' Timmy boy.
>>741309720
So how long till he brings a lawsuit against roblox.
>>741310986There are so many humans on the planet, there are more divisions then you can even comprehend. I remember having a similar realization when I learned about how big the hidden object genre is after randomly running into my friend's aunt playing it on the kitchen computer.
>>741313703It used to be where 3rdies and kids who can't play the latest COD go, to play free junk versions.Nowadays it's just neo-Second Life
>>741313756Timmy's just mad because it's not him. That's HIS CP being linked around.
>>741313819that would be based
Its incredible how Sweeney has remained a rat for decades
>>741313819There is nothing to sue them about.With his Apple and Google lawsuits he argued that the platforms block access for 3rd-party shops. He can't sue Roblox for taking a large percentage from in-game transactions. In fact, he probably does want Roblox to continue taking higher cut to make his Fortnite platform more attractive for creators.
Their new game-focused version control being MIT and FOSS is pretty cool, but i have to wonder what ulterior motive there is for it
>>741313328Here's one of the sterile freaks now
>>741313229You don't need to have and exclusively make things for pay pigs when they have that big of a reach.Cutting out the "proles" and "poor" killed the console industry and is killing the PC industry now. If there wasn't so many games out there easily accessible to the normal and now struggling player base the PC gaming industry would be dead. You think STEAM is keeping the pc gaming industry alive?
>>741309720The Timmeister don't miss
>Breaking News: Epic sue Roblox over pedophile monopoly
>>741309720All of these games are part of a wider cancer because the industry now revolves around becoming the next Fortnite, Minecraft, Roblox. The problem isn't the games themselves, it's the corporate culture of greed around them that makes the industry less innovative, lazy and entitled.
>>741309720spiteful because Sweeney has no weenie
>>741309864which is which?
>>741315238which is which?
I still bought games even though things like armor games and new grounds existed.
>>741313703Basically a giant n64 tier games platform, not game platform, and social media hub. Mostly populated by children and bored broke teens. And roving grooming gangs and pedos. It was recently outed for allowing it and going after the "pedo hunters". >>741313837Dude you don't even know. The problem with gaming right now, is that everyone forgot that. That there is a HUGE MARKET out there and the rich out of touch half retarded nep baby/crony suits going after only a few assumed huge groups or being total predators pimping gambling and dark psychology filled slop is the problem. Even more hilarious? The underserved groups will pay actual money to play those games. Even physical copies. Remember, Jobs got his idea of the Iphone after seeing how obscenely popular the DS was. It was a massive hit among older people and women who wanted a relatively cheap toy to play with.
>>741311658its called the Valve model
>>741315487I don't remember Valve attacking the competition.
>>741312539Almost everything they do is operating at a loss besides Fortnite.
>>741315531What do you think all of that anti epic gamestore stuff was about?
>>741315642>anti epic gamestore stuf>By Valve
>>741312539Your image is outdated. Epic is now up to $1 billion given away for low quality UEFN slop.
>Why is Timmy so angry and spiteful?because he's always been at the cusp of being the main character in gaming but never quite there. Everything he does is not quite good enough, but decent enough to be profitable and somewhat useful. He's everything but will never be prolific like Gabe.
>>741309848Good morning, saar.
STEP ASIDE ROBLOXTHOSE PEDOPHILES ARE EPIC GAMES PROPERTY NOW
He's extremely concerned about other companies having the monopoly that is rightfully his.
>>741309720I genuinely can't stand this faggot
>>741309961Last time Roblox could be considered "niche" was before the pandemic, it skyrocketed in mainstream popularity since then. Even adults and manchildren jump in to play and socialize which is quite telling of it's widespread normalfaggot appeal. Oh and also Pedos.
>>741315463>Jobs got his idea of the Iphone after seeing how obscenely popular the DS wasPDAs were popular for a decade plus prior
>>741313591Came back to call you a little dishonest shill nigger here too
>>741309720>Why is Timmy so angry and spiteful?Greedy faggot cannot be content with having like 80% of the triple A games use his shitty engine, as well as having one of the most obnoxiously popular games ever created, Fortnite
>>741309720he keeps an enemies list like chris chan?
>>741317949He is so fucking insecure now that I think about it.
>>741315821>billion of dollars jesus christ no wonder they laid off 1k employees
>>741309720he's actually right this timeroblox sells gambleslop to children and runs away with 70% of the revenue. that isn't right (this pie chart is a little old)
>>741309961>Roblox is a niche
>>741315782You don't see how "ohmygod epic sucks but Gabe is awesome" spam benefits Valve just as "ohmygod Roblox sucks play Fortnite" spam is beneficial to Epic?
>>741310296they do have that thoughit's just a smaller part of the market
>>741309848Let's see>chink company pretending to be western>Bribes devs to use his shitty platform>Bribes players to use his shitty platform>singlehandedly destroys the industry because everyone uses his Unreal Slop engine>constantly bitches about steam taking a big cut but realistically wouldn't even allow a fraction of steam games to be sold on his >brainrots children for over a decade with fortnite>takes tencent money, which is the equivalent of selling out>Hypocritically TALKS TALKS TALKS - yet seemingly accomplishes nothing
Roblox has better games than the Epic Store though
>>741315121Industry has too much self awareness. We need a crash.
>>741311765It's the Chinese ties that repels me from the brand, it does irreparable reputation damage.
>>741311765>>741313513Steamfags are the most zealous brand loyalists out there. It's not like consolefags where the whole machine and controllers it's compatible with change. So fucking weird and nutty.
>>741309864>>741318368>>741318526you do know that valve have the biggest cs2 skins market for chinks?
>>741318126I love Benben
>>741318920selling to chinese is not the same as literally taking chinese money and allowing them board member seatsDidn't Tencent own like over 48% of Epic a while back? if that has changed to be lower, it has solely been done for better optics.If I'm wrong it's mainly because I just don't care enough
>>741311765I'd say it was Hades.>Exclusive to EGS throughout its early access, basically paying for the entirety of its production>Available for ages before it ever hit Steam>Finally releases on Steam to a HUGE success, topping charts and shitting awards out the ass>Nobody even knew it was on EGS and everyone just buys it on Steam
>>741309848Tim quite literally hasnt done a single good thing for games that i can think of. His only goal is to be a spiteful faggot who cuts down everyone else around him because he cant be happy with whats on his enormous, extremely overportioned plate. Unreal engine is a complete recourse raping shitheap that needs to be modded into something else almost entirely for it not to be horrific by default, EGS is quite literally origin tier with how useless it is and timmy seethes that he ignored and advocated for PC as a platform to be ruined and missed out on infinite free money because gabe got there first and continues to dominate just on the fact that they arent raping their customers at every single angle for an extra dime.>>741318813There are virtually 0 companies that even sniff steams consumer focused behavior, have nearly the same features, put the effort into making pc gaming as good as it can be and havent sold out to shareholders demanding that you need a steam+ account at just 3.99/mo to access features like community forums, reviews, workshop, non throttled downloads speeds, and more than 2 game installs under 30gb a day, 1 if you want something over 50gb, etc. Proton is enough for me to wish gaben his yachts and fortune. there is plenty to criticize steam for, but every single time an anti steam poster offers solutions they are immediately worse, are exceedingly unrealistic, or sound like they came from tim himself while on day 3 of a bender running damage control for EGS. Im not a zealot for steam but im honest enough to understand just how horrifically bad things would be like if GFWL/EGS were the ones running the show instead
>>741319530Hades devs basically ran a scam and I respect it,.
tim has no self-awareness>monopolies are bad>there should be one platform to rule all platforms and it should be mine
>>741309848They're too low IQ to understand him. Tim is criminally based.
>>741309720>perpetual victimhood behaviorcan't this loser fuck off already
>>741319818He's right here but that's not saying much. Everyone is pro ai but retarded leftoids.
>>741319835Right? He sounds like a conservative.
>>741312539what happened with steal the brainrotshit was getting like 500k+ on events
>Waiting for GTA VI and Sony next kino videogames, also new TRFeels good to be a normalfag instead of a soilent losers, a culture war grifter or a pajeetoscammer. (BASED)
>>741319936conservatism is actual victimhood, howevera conservative is literally just forced to watch and compromise as their values are constantly eroded by progressives, degenerates and liberals(because no society or government ever allows them to keep their ways)
>>741315642I think it was about Epic stealing people's Metro Exodus preorders among other things
>>741320169>(because no society or government ever allows them to keep their ways)until they kill all those and usher in some peace
>>741320220Exodus was the start of it.God that was such a shitshow when it happened.
>>741309864Missed "Alien Vs. Predator" opportunity.
>>741318023Don't forget jacking up V-Bucks prices 20%.
>>741321253Okay? Valve is discontinuing their steam gift card program.
>>741318813Tendies supported being sold cardboard boxes. Steam will always be second place to them
>>741309720timmy looking sick and frail kek
>>741313293nta but I'm not at actively interested in posting lies on the internet and having weird frog pictures onhand as I am for, say, erotic tabletop gaming and raising chickens.
>>741321284Oh course indians would be upset about that lmao
>>741311319Someone who worked at Rocket League told me he asked Tim why Unreal Tournament gets no love and that he blankly said that he hates Unreal Tournament and that people need to move on. I'm 50/50 on whether he was telling me the truth or not but he told me this a few years ago.
>>741309720He's correct, about the problem, not sure about the solution
>>741322269Timmy has resentment on Cliffy b, probably considers him a traitor
>>741310986I've never heard anyone bring it up in conversation, but I do IT work for about 40 different school districts, and Roblox is a major bandwidth consumer on many of them, sometimes the top even above Youtube. I assume there's a lot of youth out there playing it, but it's something completely out of anyone 30+'s radar.
>>741309720Who gives a fuck? Just make games for adults who don't play that baby shit.
>>741309720He is such a weird little guy, he so wants to be bill gates but he is so unimportant.
>>741309848Tim Sweeney is a retarded asshole with the worst kind of autism. I think he has been holding a delusional grudge against the likes of Valve and id since the 90's and thinks that they "stole his ideas" for Unreal with Half-Life and Quake despite those games releasing years earlier.
>>741324425>delusional grudgeAnon, it's you who has delusional love for this company. Valve hurts the market
Jesus Christ they are turning shitnite into roblox itself and of course he want the competition gone or neuthered, what a scumbag
>>741324559>Valve hurts the marketYeah. Valve is hurting the market by having a massive platform where a solo dev can make millions of dollars in a week.Meanwhile, Tim Sweeney is saving games by...destroying the lives of 2000 people he fired.
>>741324425Valve has only been his problem more recently but id was his big rival back in the day
>>741310038Timmy's a hypocrite like always. He hates Roblox because he wishes Fortnite was exactly that. He hates Steam because he wishes EGS was exactly that. He hates Apple because he wishes Epic itself was exactly that.
>>741309720His only gripe is two-folded.The first is, it isn't HE and his services who do the dominating.The second is his enemies are offering genuinely good and free environments. Which his corpo bullshit can't compete in any other way than buyouts and hostile competition. Which his enemies are now too big for.If he somehow magically acquired Roblox this instant his first move would be to add tenfold data gathering and selling and try to make it monthly billed subscription service, then fricolously ligitate or buy out all emerging free competitors. Oh and make all custom content both extremely regulated and property of the company.
>>741309720Hasn't he been trying to turn Fortnite into the new Roblox for years? Failing to steal someone's lunch, again.
>>741309720Envious little cretin, isn't he?
>>741326471Pretty much
>>741309848hes a slimy bitch, anyone who trusts him is a complete retard.
>>741309720Of course he's against Roblox. It's what they're trying to turn Fortnite into. Just like they're "trying" (trying doing some heavy lifting here) to copy Steam with EGS.
People are starting to notice how much of a sponge Phill is. This is the third time he goes "Don't worry, i have a plan! Quick! Everybody put money into my pockets"
>>741309848They're mind broken by Gabe's fat ugly bastard cock.
>>741309720>roblox only loses money>roblox HAS THE MARKET>like Uber and shit they should be making money NOW but they do notRoblox is fucked unless they go full AI datacenters or something.
Well I mean its true that Roblox will kill gaming. As young people only play Roblox and nothing else. They dont give a fuck about traditional classic single player video game stuff.
Stuff like roblox and fortnite and mobile games might as well all be considered a different industry from regular video games. The people who engage with any of them are never going to play stuff like Resident Evil or Final Fantasy or Zelda or Souls games or snoy movie games or whatever random AAA games you can think of.
>The UNREAL ENGINE guy is complaining about industry consolidation
>>741313513are you telling me squeenix got a triple timmy tencent deal, and then sold the full package later on steam? holy fuck that's hilarious.
>>741309961Used to be you saw roblox clones of popular games. Now we are beginning to see regular game clones of popular roblox games.
>>741331995We are also seeing like kids who grew up making shit on roblox hitting it big on steam
>>741320063Has 136k concurrent right now with no event
The only people who buy AAA games in large numbers are Millennials and Gen X. A small amount of zoomers do. So therefore video games will die in the next 10 years or so when Gen X get too old to give a shit about games anymore and stop buying any games at all and Millennials get older and buy less games.
Roblox can’t be stopped. Neither can Honor of Kings (???).
>>741332136>the most succesful game modes are just roblox ripoffsGrim.
>>741309720Look at the top of his head This is sad and pathetic behavior>WAH THE ZOOMERS ARE SPENDING ALL THEIR MONEY ON ROBLOX INSTEAD OF FORTNITE THEYRE MY ENEMY Epic shills worship this bald retard
>>741325291The new bullshit is locking skins in the bp behind levels again. Leaving all the good shit till the higher levels
>>741332143>The only people who buy AAA games in large numbers are Millennials and Gen Xand Tencent, who needs to fool statistics by bloating sales....Though I'm sure they aren'tt the only ones doing it
>>741333626What AAA games do tencent make?
>>741324746your logic was too good the other nigga gave up lol
>>741309848He's hypocritical as fuck. Imagine complaining about Roblox when your own company keeps churning out Fortnite.
>>741319892Nope, try again leftoid
>>741309720Roblox and Fortnite have no cinematics, no diverse people of color, no story about oppression, how the fuck is it selling?Wait gameplay? What the fuck is that.
>>741309720BUM FIIIIGHT
>>741309848>He's extremely based.this. ongod
>>741309720>jew being a hypocritepoetry
>>741309720AAA gaming is so fucking awful (thanks in no small part to UE) that kids would rather play with digital paper dolls.
>>741333551Also making Steal the Brainrot in Battle Royale and then punishing people who don't play actual matches
>>741309720Good fuck all your slop. Now it seems like a good thing kids grew up playing three games. They dodged an entire decade of Jewish onslaught
>>741334461Fortnite is unironically diversity done right. Just dump a box with every action figure known to man on the ground and say "just pick whatever"
>>741312539HOW. HOW DO YOU OPERATE AT A LOSS SELLING 1S AND 0S TO PEOPLE. WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS FUCKING INDUSTRY
>Why is Timmy so angry and spiteful?He's just an average kike.
>>741334032Any game they helped fund or have stakes in
>>741320530Based hryuks tanking Epic
>>741309720What is he even suggesting?It almost sounds like he wants to make Metaverse 2 where you can meet with friends and walk into games like Fortnite and.... Lego Fortnite?After Zuck the Fucks multi billion dollar failure you want to pick up the shovel and keep digging the money pit?
>>741334805He's upset he's not making all the money in the observable universe which is a healthy outlook to have in a quickly shrinking industry
>>741334921>>741334805Sweeney is endlessly seething that Roblox completely mogged Fortnite.
>>741334921I mean yes, that's why he's throwing hands with Gabe. Or trying to. But this Team OPEN shit he's trying to talk about like the Avengers of AAA gaming is kind of fucking insane because he doesn't even have a suggestion about what it's going to accomplish. Nor does he even try to explain his vision of Roblox somehow supplanting ALL gaming.
>>741335085He's trying to lasso the tide and make it obey him. "The industry" is finally dying.
who the fuck thinks that roblox is a threat to their bottom line?
>>741335085Tim just says shit out of complete lack of emotional maturity. I'm so impressed by his lack of shame for saying the most retarded nonsense in public and blatant holding of petty grudges that I think he's genuinely autistic, like, developmentally stunting autism but not so stunted as to be a cripple.
>>741335647Are you not allowed to get near children or something?
>>741309720why is this guy such a fucking cry baby?
>>741318023Funnily enough many of those laid off employees stated they were going to make games in UEFN after the laid off. And of course, since they're the bottom of the barrel, never actually released shit.
>>741331627Good. I hope line goes down. Fiduciary duty is what got us here, and once the public companies are out of the picture we'll be getting a lot more variety and a lot less bloat. Indies are already building up a significant industry of their own
>>741334554I've avoided BR purely for the fact it's easier to do dailies on literally anything else. They're fucking retards
>>741335647It unironically is for Fortnite
>>741309720This thread is really very botted but what seems to be going on is clearly that he wouldn't be complaining if it was his platform "growing and eating gaming" or whatever, so he wants everything to be communal focused since he doesn't have a cut of whatever success (insert other company/platform) is enjoying. Despite the fact that his company is already also ridiculously profitable in its own way.
>>741335647>>741336665Roblox is directly responsible for Fortnite's drop in popularity last year.
>>741309720>First Valve>Then Apple>Now Roblox>Why is Timmy so angry and spiteful?the word you're looking for is "based""based" as seen in the definition given to it by it's coiner: Lil Ba based with a definition of love in a Jesus-like manner for those most afflicted, especially those afflicted by the greed of the unfathomably unbased
>>741319775a monopoly is about companies amassing controlthe article you posted is about companies relinquishing control
>>741309720>Two Retards Fighting
>>741311168You aren't allowed to compete against the play store or app store. That's the whole point of the litigation retard
>>741309848Tim can try making games instead of just riding off Fortnite collaborations for the last decade or building up the Unreal ecosystem
>>741311319>removed UnrealA court ordered that Epic make an account creation process for all of their online games. Rather than force all the old Unreal games to have accounts, he just removed them from stores and made them free.Go download any of the UT games. They're free and have Tim's blessings. oldunreal.com
>>741337270>>741335647Yep Roblox is causing Epic immense pain more than any other game
I think Tim is based and want him to succeed
Being contrarian on Tim "PC Gaming is Dead" Sweeney is so low it tunnels out of China and goes to space.
>>741340335I genuinely want to see his open standards initiative succeed
>>741339294He's thrown literally everyone under the bus at different times. And he's admitted he would have taken back room deals with Apple and so forth had they been offered during litigation. All that talk about doing that lawfare "FOR THE DEVELOPERS" was pure bluster.
>>741310335>generationsliterally only 1 slowly becoming 2 "grew up on roblox" saying generations have been ruined bc of a game that released 20 years ago seems like quite the conflation
imagine if tim put his energy into just making stuff people want
>>741310038Literally Fortnite and what they're trying to do with UE6 (with tryingnto integrate everything into one single thing).Since Fortnite is losing players, he's getting more desesperate
>>741310986The core thing about Roblox is that there isn't really a "single community" for it. Since there's so many different environments, games, ecosystems in one place, the community of Phantom Forces has virtually nothing to do with the community of Sonic Simulator, etc. So there's no big fandom, collective discussion, collaborative idea of any of this stuff compared to most other games out there, resulting instead in tons of insular groups and things staying on the downlow despite the sheer, absurd scale of Roblox's playerbase. A Roblox player doesn't "identify" as a Roblox player, they'll talk about the things they play in particular.
>>741312539Lolno
Reminder that all the indie devs that joined Timmy's lawsuit against Valve are now jobless. BandCamp and other indie companies that wanted a big Epic payout? Tim Sweeney fired them after the lawsuit was over.
>>741334740They gave away free games, no one is actually playing much for games on the game store so therefore not many people are BUYING games on EGS, and kept paying out huge things of "if you do exclusivity with us, we'll technically buy like 600,000 copies of your game as a down payment" and then those games didn't sell past that. They went so deep on trying to make something more appealing than Steam and just like with Fortnite and UEFN, they simply did not put in the effort and threw around all their funbucks expecting it to change the world and move the earth, before pouting and throwing fits that it didn't.
>>741340571Don't care, he did the lawsuits and won them. Also Valve has backroom deals with Microsoft asking them to not compete with themEGS should be allowed to charge whatever they want for their games. Price parity clauses are cancer.
>>741325571He's seethe a lot since he has lots of money from his engine, Fortnite and from Tencent but he can't buy his competitors like Steam and Roblox. He thought that offering them a fuckton of money would fix things (for him) but his competitors told him to fuck off.
>>741309720Tim Sweeney is a filthy rich billionaire but you would never know it because he is constantly looking at other peoples money and how unfair it is that they have it. If I was him I'd be on some beach somewhere Roblox would be the last thing on my mind. He seems miserable.
>>741340571>admitted he would take backroom deals with AppleCan some anon post source for this? I see it constantly get stated but I want to see the actual quote
Remember when Tim thought that Fortnite players would grow up and convert to being EGS users?
>>741309848Became Gaben is my friend and cares about me.
>>741340741No, it's actually that Tim has read books like Snow Crash and desperately wants to see it become a reality
>>741320859fuck that's good anon i giggled like a retard
>>741340982>Also Valve has backroom deals with Microsoft asking them to not compete with themThis seems like a complete misinterpretation of something. Microsoft TRIED to compete with valve. "Games for Windows Live," sound familiar? Microshit just wasn't up to the task and it FAILED, resulting in the service being stripped out of games.If anyone has a deal, it's Microsoft deciding to sell their games on Steam because the huge install base that comes prepackaged is better than trying to set up another "Xbox ecosystem" on PC.
Where's the remote, Tim?
>>741341270
>>741309848He's only jelly that he can't be the monopolist.
>>741341571It's not even subtle if you follow his comments and career. He 100% is an envious fuck.
>>741340982No they dont lmao
>>741309720Timmy dreams of being the Steve Jobs of video-games, but all he does is lawsuits and pushing his slop store and slop engine.
>>741309720Well...guess he is right in this case, broken clock and all that
>>741341341Tim no!
So what happens if Roblox is gone?
>>741312315maybe fornite is just old and people are growing up and the newer generation of kiddos like roblox?
>>741342424Thats the pointFortnite should have been roblox
>>741309848true but UE6 is a mistake and will cannibalize they/them
>>741342132mass suicide in youths
>>741318813I prefer GOG, but I'm just not installing a sketchy chink launcher.
>>741342612They've been trying to make it like Roblox. The problem is following a leader always ends up weaker in this industry unless you can surpass them, and in Fortnite's case, they're so far off the mark it's not even a competition. Shit that's been touted for years still hasn't made it into UEFN, the UE specialized toolset for making Fortnite content, even big things they were pushing for in prior State of Unreal demos. First Person got implemented and then abandoned in a half-broken state with very few things updated for it. The new menus and systems they hoped to implement are completely AWOL with no sign of updates.You still cannot create entirely new items or weapons, custom player animations are juryrigging some serious shit together by controlling remote pawns in ways that clearly aren't working right and can never reach a fully playable state as is, the list goes on. And even if they DID improve UEFN, it's already cemented an absolute gluttony of the same Red vs. Blue and Tycoon map spam all over the place that will pay creators by player count engagement, meaning there's no incentive to actually make anything worthwhile at length.ESPECIALLY since even trying to actually make something worthwhile will near-inevitably lead to a random Fortnite update changing shit under the hood yet again that completely breaks everything in half and you get zero notes or inclinations as to what is causing it. This shit simply was never gonna dethrone Roblox because like with everything else Epic and Timmy do, they half-ass it and don't dedicate the proper manpower and resources into it. All their "Find it in Fortnite" plans have completely fallen on their face so they're doubling back to Battle Royale, which is now falling out of fashion because it's becoming repetitive and anti-casual sweaty with nothing interesting going on anymore. And then Epic acts indignant when people drop out.They're victims of their own making.
>>741324746every day i plink away at my indie game, a new friendslop that'll be abandoned in 2 weeks comes out and makes another multimillionaire.
>>741342949Oh right and two years ago they were proclaiming "WE'RE GONNA MAKE THE FUTURE OF FORTNITE BATTLE ROYALE IN UEFN STARTING NEXT YEAR", and now its been two years and that shit still hasn't actually started. Because the featureset is so limited, the tools so jank, the actual UEFN program altogether so largely pointless for anything large scale that they legitimately cannot justify it internally as a primary development tool after all their hype and big plans, and they've just silently shifted everything to "NOW THINGS ARE GONNA GET REALLY BIG IN UE6".
>>741340982egs doesnt set the price, nor does valve, the publisher does
>>741341934I think there's envy that he's not seen as this bigshot of the industry. In a way end he is, thanks to Fortnite and Unreal Engine, but it seems it wasn't enough for him.
>>741343108>>741342949Problem is Timmy went on a retarded crusade against Apple/Google and left mobile alone for years. What happened? Fortnite lost all opportunity for growth while Roblox and PUBG took over.
>>741343362That's one of many problems too, no growth on mobile besides sideloading which is for a super niche audience fucked them on that. Now that consoles and PC are getting so expensive, the Switch 1 version is virtually unplayable, and mobile return had borderline zero advertising, there's no more room for growth which is bad when you want to be the biggest thing ever.
>>741340741No it's more like everyone is realizing that making their own Engines or using Godot would be better than uitilizing Unreal for most work. AAA is sort of in a bind, but most likely threatened Sweeney with "Make everything work, make it optimized, otherwise we will make our own Engines even if it costs us 500 million for 6 years". So UE6 had to cave in. Because UE while it has tons of great things, it honestly has structural and foundational and legacy bottlenecks they did not address which caused games to take forever to release.
>>741318813>LoyalistsFor good reason, if everyone wishes to complain about Steam, follow Gabe Newell's advice make a better platform and service. I guess nobody can because that would require actual effort than shortcuts. It's like when people get mad about Youtube or other platforms but have yet to offer the same amount of services that people gravitate to or features but then whine "WE CAN'T!!!!! WE'RE POOR" when they have investors funding them like half a billion dollars total or like GOG.
The obvious endgame for Unreal Engine 6 is catering to mobile players. You guys know the mobile rendering engine has been receiving updates, right? That’s why Tim Sweeney is desperately trying to turn Fortnite into a better Roblox. It’s his last resort before the next wave of layoffs.
>>741343691UE6's endgame is for Mobile that much is obvious because look at the Gacha money, they wish to have a piece of that revenue. If UE6 can scale from Mobile, PC and Console with a stable 60fps, then essentially it means we will see more Gacha as a result. But you are not wrong in the fact they are desperate in trying to chase Roblox despite Fortnite being down over the last few years. It's a losing battle.
>>741343691Endless amount of plans and 4d chess that went fucking nowhere
>>741337613yea I'm sure tim sweeney wants to do that out of the goodness of his heart with no ulterior motives
Reminder these are some of the tweets that "Charlie Wen" liked on twitter (before Elon removed that transparency like a retard). Sweeney chose this talentless faggot to be HEAD OF CREATIVITY for his entire company. Some leftoid chink faggot who draws cape shit (and badly).
>>741346068>a tweet from child charity saying happy birthday Whoopi Goldbergholy fucking shit!I can't believe someone liked itThanks for including it into the collage, schizo-kun!
I've no idea why anyone plays Roblox beyond it being free but even if it's just that, you can just pirate better games.

>>741343362>Timmy abandoned the mobile market for years>Let Roblox and PUBG eat his lunchHonestly he deserves it.
>>741309848Because Sweeney Tim is pro-publisher, not pro-consumer.As long as his fight is for the benefit of Take-Two, EA, Epic, Paradox, etc, he will never be your friend. As far as Timmy's concerned, the customer can go eat shit and pay $100 for the privilege as long as the publisher gets the maximum cut for it.
Here is a nugget of forbidden schizo knowledge:lots of immigrants have a selfishness culture and don't really bother with their kids. Roblox is also pushed by the parents : they do not want to buy anything for their kids.some nigette will tell her kids "you already have video games, go play roblox !"There is nothing you can do. Demography is destiny.There is only one escape from Hell on Earth : Overthrow the jew
>>741313070i always forget that but it's hilarious

>>741319690That's simply the way to do it. I imagine Gamepass is funding all sorts of cool future projects while Satya and that other woman just scratch their heads about why doesn't this make any money.
>>741321284i was told cash and physical currencies were chud nazi shit. isn't going digital-only the wet dream of steam's detractors?
Lewis Dodgson of video games but far less cool
The epic store is an amazing case study of how to persistently do everything wrong. No reasonable company would want that clown circus shit blemishing their reputation but Timmy has zero financial understanding and just relies on China and Fortnite money to keep it afloat.If you want success, literally always do the opposite of what Tim does.
>>741339085i love this era of software (or specific versions/editiins of something) being legally archived because the company behind it has loudly announced their parting in favor of some new shit.so many games, shows, movies that get treated like garbage by the people holding the rights, making the unspoiled version unavailable entirely, not realizing they've given people a ticket to freely obtain the old thing they refuse to sell now.i'd gladly pay $40 for what the fanmade BFME launcher does so i donated ten bucks to them.
>>741348827>i let my 4.5 year old watch vidya on youtubeoof

>>741350206>your kidTHE kid, sorry, i'm not actually one of those idiots who thinks every reply is the same person

>>741324746Now watch as Tim sues the Meccha Chameleon's devs for monopoly.
>>741310913>>741310684>They fired 1000 peopleYeah, I think this might be an underrated part of this entire thing.To these people fortnite revenue not going as much as expected (still massive) is like the end of the world. The green arrow might not go up infinitely, a tragedy, and who knows when the decline will stop.So this opening of new fronts and more agressive attacks might be a sign of a little bit of desperation and feeling the need to do something about it.But yeah i didn't trust Epic pretty much from the beginning when they made me feel like a bad person for not taking free shit off their hands.
>>741309720Because he's seething with jealousy. All of these companies did something he wanted to do but failed.
>>741310335It removes the retards from gaming how is that anything but good?
>>741350991Nah. Timmy's entire goal with UE6 is that the Meccha Chameleon dev will launch his game inside Fortnite so his company can get a piece of the pie. The premise of UE6 is fucking creepy as Timmy wants the gaming world to revolve around Fortnite.
>Tim Sweeney adds Roblox to his enemies listHoly shit HUUUUGE NEWS. Is minecraft next? Should mojang be shitting their pants? They're a huge platform which makes it money on the same demographic fortnite does.
>>741348382It's hilarious how bad that entire saga made sweeney look. I'd love for EGS to be a good alternative to Steam but a sweeney is unironically less trustworthy than big publishers like EA, Ubisoft and Activision. At least with those guys you know they're going to fuck you over and they don't pretend to have good intentions.
>>741315642>What do you think all of that anti epic gamestore stuff was about?Such as? Genuine question, I do not know. I haven't given any attention to epic vs everyone else since metro drama.
I'm just gonna say, if someone decided to shoot Timmy like that Marioluigi guy did with that CEO, that would be pretty interesting.
>>741309720>Roblox is ruining the industry >Dumps everything into trying to copy itwhat the fuck is he on about
>>741352628He's mad he isn't Roblox.
>>741309720>>741309848Tim Sweeney is a pathetic loser who keeps seething about other people's success. He thought just creating a new digital storefront will be enough (while ignoring the fact gamers do, in fact, have SOME standards), and when that failed (he refused to learn from EA and Ubisoft's examples), he became obsessed with attacking others' products instead of creating his own. No matter what he says, good or bad, all of his opinions can be safely discarded because they fundamentally come from his feelings of envy and anger.
>>741312832>The 11 year old playing Roblox now won't be playing it at 21.They genuinely don't. I saw an overlap chart that scrapped play history. If they ever played Roblox 90% of the other shit they latch onto is also free2play trash and gachas.
>>741352807Ironic because Timmy as a person is endlessly more childish than Roblox.
>>741309848Because he doesn't make anything, he's just a catty bitch
