my life hinges on antidepressants and if they stop working and i watch my life melt away again i am going to instigate a desperate situation that has me trying to commit suicide by cop but in the process of doing so i will use the suicidal desperation to assassinate a politician. not any particular one, but whomever is accessible at the time. i want to hunt them for sport i want to hunt a human and i want to hear what their different screams are and what their footsteps sound like and what their eyes and i have been severely depressed for years its already eaten my youth away and now i want to die but i also have much, much energy and i want to try and destroy something before i die and am never born again i hate dealing with humans i hate dealing with these unpredictable little animals i want to kill them and torture them i am done trying to negotiate and beg and hedge and placate them i dont want to be on this planet with them what is the point of trying to live and build anything with these animals. i dont want to have a body or mind anymore i dont want to be anything at all i want to destroy rather than be. i have only been voluntarily committed to a mental hospital before and so i am still legally capable of purchasing a weapon

Because Epic's attempt to become a game store happened in the peak of literally everyone forcing their own PC store and they aggressively bought out exclusivity, even for games people already pre-ordered on Steam

timmy hated the PC market to his core, and he only joined because steam was making too much money, so he started shitting all over the PC market by poaching game exclusivity.
that's why i will never even claim a single game from that piece of shit, let alone buy something

>I don't understand why people hate EGS so much.
People hate dishonesty, how is that hard to understand?
An honest game storefront goes 'we're the fucking best, look at all our features, look at how much we help our customers!'
But that's not what EGS did lmao, they bribed game companies to release games exclusively on their store (keep in mind the whole point of PC is that games didn't have exclusivity).
They released shitloads of 'free' games, except if you aren't a complete moron you are able to decipher that they only did that in the hopes you'd buy more shit from them, sunk cost fallacy and all.
In a nutshell EGS made PC gaming objectively worse for quite some time until they ran out of their infinite fortnite budget and stopped poaching games.
Heaps of games scheduled for release on GoG/Steam/etc, often got poached weeks from release and shoved onto EGS for an entire year of exclusivity.
>>
>Comes into a market where no one really was asking for competition with GOG and Steam being well-regarded by customers
>Offers nothing different or of value
>Starts poaching games and offering them as exclusives to try and compete, bringing unnecessary exclusive faggotry in the one space that historically served as a retreat from that
The last point is why I will always hate them.

different wording will give different results so it depends on what you give it

This. There isn't a single reason to use EGS apart from the "we're giving free games goy come here!" tactic that anyone with a 3 digits IQ knows is only a temporary tactic to trap you into their ecosystem before they try to fuck you over, it's the Walmart invading small towns special.

>Starts poaching games
I'll never forgive those niggers for doing that with Hitman 3.
>>
>>750189976
People would unironically buy games on steam rather than get them for free on epic.
Not even being cheeky or sarcastic either. Whenever epic gives out a game for free, it causes a spike in sales for that game on steam.

Timmy is such a nice guy, offering people free demos before you buy it on steam
>>
>>750190539
True, and also it makes perfect sense. If you want a free game, you pirate it, that way you don't have to deal with a gay launcher. If you want a billion useful features, you buy on Steam which has excellent deals anyway. All EGS does is publicity boosts for games, but it never provides a reason to actually use EGS. The overwhelming majority of EGS "users" just spend 2 minutes weekly logging in, claiming a game they'll never play, and logging out.

I don't hate it, it just never gave me a reason to get a game there.

Because EGS showed up when steam already broke ground and laid all the foundation for digital distribution, proving it could not only work, but be very successful.

>they're
their. But yes, EGS launched in 2018, and it took them 3 years to add a fucking shopping cart. They lack 95% of Steam's useful features, and the only 2 ways they have ever attracted anyone to use their shit launcher is forcing it to play Fortnite, and giving away free games or fucking us over with exclusivity deals that have 0 benefit for the players. Fuck Timmy for stealing Hitman 3 from us and telling us to just "buy Hitman 2 a second time, this time on ESG lol"

The funny part about that story is they just took their unreal store and added games to it. They could have added a shopping cart any time but didn't.
People here argued that a shopping cart is difficult to add and that it was forgotten technology. The realisation nobody cared is because nobody bought games on EGS anyway.

And they could have tried to finance small indie studios that truly need the money to finance their games, they could have played the "we're behind the little guys!" card, but no, they exclusively paid already huge studios to get AAA titles to attract normies, fully showing that their intentions are only to attract people then trap them in a closed ecosystem that wants to economically rape them. Tim is a full blown sociopath without the slightest idea of how to interact with a human being or how they think, he is the most fitting example I could imagine if you wanted to convince someone reptilian people exist.

It's genuinely a dogshit service whose "priority is developers" rather than customers, Sweeney's words, and is set to get worse now that they're straight up publicly admitting to vibecoding it.
