I don’t use it very much at all but the other day I saw a news item that they had introduced gifting games to other users. After how many years are they missing basic features? It’s not like they need to put thought into it. All they need to do is build the same features as Steam. It’s clearly not a budget issue with the millions they get from Fortnite and throw at exclusives
It launched in a terrible state and they took ages to make it even tolerable tbh. I used it anyway for free games but I get why a lot of people want nothing to do with it.
Tim Sweeney was too cheap to pay a dev to put in a shopping for two fucking years while in that same time he spent hundreds of millions of dollars on paid exclusives.
Tim Swiney is a fucking idiot, and the board should vote to remove him as CEO. He’s been a liability for years.
I am 100% one of those people. I try to check Epic weekly, to see if the current freebie is a game I’m undecided on. If so, I’ll grab it to try for free but if I actually like the game I then add it to my Steam wishlist to purchase next time it’s on sale.
The article suggests that people are willing to pay to have all their games in one place.
A not-insignificant amount of people would rather buy a game they just got free than have to remember to open epic.
I would rather pay money than use Epic, not because I don’t want another launcher but because it’s Epic.
That sounds like such a massive failing on Epic’s part to make an attractive launcher/platform.
It’s really, really bad. Slow, janky, unintuitive layout, full of ads.
