No they just bribe them to make them exclusive. Unless do you actually believe that publishers would make them Epic exclusive without shit load of money they get.
True, but the point is that if I backed a game only to be told that I have to wait for a whole year before I can play it on platform of my choosing I would be pissed.
So because its already damaged its ok to damage it some more? There is outrage for loot boxes unless you think people shouldnt bitch about is since everyone is doing it?
Never said Valve is perfect, but I dont see how throwing fuel on fire will make the it better?
How is that incline? Who is going to judge if the game is review bombed or just shitty game. In before every AAA game on EPIC store gets 90% positive reviews since others are judged to be unacceptable. Are they also still figuring out how to gift games?
Dont be retarded, EPIC gives shit load of money to make games exclusive, its a great deal for publishers but not so good for players.
This was your comment: "Same reason Steam games cost the same as consoles games despite having no licensing fees to Nintendo/Sony/Microsoft.
But that's ok because Valve didn't impose it!"
You were bitching about Steam prices.

Steam gifts free games every week.
Also who gives a fuck about free games, I buy myself what I want and I live in pretty much third world country.
You are like a nigger who votes Democrat only because they will give you welfare.
As I said I support EPIC financing devs to make games and make them exclusive to their store as they are acting as publishers.
But that article is a joke:
"Indie developer Gwen Frey is working on a puzzle game called Kine all by themselves. "I was a struggling solo indie dev making a passion project," Frey says in a tweet. "I was about to sell out to a publisher so I could hire artists and finish my game properly. But I didn't, because I was saved by an Epic exclusivity deal."
So here is a indie dev making a puzzle game similar to thousands of others on Steam. Yet what, he deserves success and riches just because hes making a game? Should we feel sorry for him for starting a project for which he didnt have money or people to complete? I have zero pity for those kind of people and if EPIC decides to give money to every indie dev like that I dont think that their Fortnite money would be enough.
Its the same pretty much everywhere, yet neither developers or publishers cared about it until now. And for some reason very few of them rush to put their games on itch.io that has 10% cut.
If they are anything like you then Im sure in their offices they do nothing but bitch about it.
Nobody said otherwise.
