make sure to link your Total War account with your Epic account so you can get the first dlc free as well

and I'm pretty sure that's how they're going to transfer digital rights over to Steam when this exclusivity deal ends so you're gonna want to make a Total War account anyway

It's great if you don't mind missing countless store features and enduring anti-consumer policies, sure. I, for one, value standards over a few free games.

You did indeed stab me in the back. However, you are only level one, whilst I am level 50. That means I should remain uninjured.

Yep because steam is known worldwide for being pro-consumer and having every conceivable feature that users would ever want

I'm no fan of egs as a product (because I'm lazy), but pretending that you refuse to use it for some holier than thou reason is laughable

the paid timed exclusivity deals kind of suck big time

i remember one game was kickstarted as being available on steam but they later released it solely on the epic games store, though i cant remember its name

Lack of user reviews and forums for one. Is this game a glitchy pile of garbage? Buy it and find out!

Yeah when I'm browsing a store I really want to have Google open in another window so I can search every single title that interests me to confirm that the developers aren't selling a pile of junk. That's way better for the consumer than a bunch of instantly visible user reviews warning that something is a pile of junk.

this is the point where you are willingly handicapping yourself just to maintain a grudge

This might be the dumbest post I've ever read.

"Another tab?! OH FUCK NO"

I dunno, the one where you said removing user reviews and not having forums wasn't anti-consumer is in the running too.

I didn't say that.

I just said it's as easy as Googling for two seconds instead of acting like opening another tab is like being stabbed in the throat like you are.

You're acting like this is fucking console wars. "I CAN'T get free games because I MUST use Steam and Steam alone!"

Neither of those things are anti-consumer. They are not stopping you from looking at reviews or looking at fourms about a game. Not to mention steam fourms are pretty trash anyways.

Not to mention user reviews is on their roadmap anyways (as well as a shipping cart which is probably the biggest legitimate gripe). Remember this is a launcher that has been out for less than 2 years compared to steams 17? Expecting feature parity is crazy.

Wait, people actually use the steam forums? Just go to reddit and if there is anything wrong with the game you will see 20 threads about it.
