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.

Honestly we should probably have more places to buy games not just steam. Because remember when gabe newell dies there's no guarantee that steam will still be "good" they are still a corporation. So if epic needs exclusives to keep going we should support that. Competition between corporations is a good thing.

No, epic is already significantly worse than steam and hasn't gotten better in years. We could use good competition, that is for sure, but Epic with all of its exclusives should not be celebrated.
