yeah. Ive been weening off Steam ever since i realized what I was missing. Whenever one of my old wishlist items is on sale on Steam, my first reaction now is to go see if theres a similar sale on GOG, and there usually is.

the only time I buy games on Steam now are when its not on GOG, or if its a humble bundle >_>

I mean it's a valid reason. Epic lacks many basic features of places like Steam and Gog

It's not. Imagine telling yourself not having a shopping cart is a deal breaker.

The issue of the store not being visible.

I can "navigate" through it but holy shit is it horrible.

It's a slightly uncommon problem that a few people get.

Lol no, I would imagine it's mostly about the convenience of everything being attached to one launcher.

I only a met a few who encountered it.

The only other issue I have had with is the Outer Worlds incident with the dlc. That pissed me off royally and made me scared to buy games there anymore.

I personally have never seen that, but I rarely stray off of CE on this site and don't frequent any other message board site.

Allegedly people got blocked for buying multiple games one at a time on sale, which they had to do because there's no shopping cart, and they were blocked for "potential fraudulent activity". So, somehow, yes, no shopping cart can be a deal breaker on this one.

FWIW I prefer Steam to GoG just because it has better Linux support

that being said, I can't think of any new releases that are on GoG but not Steam (there is some old stuff though like SimCity 3000 Unlimited)

Who's shilling for Steam? Not shilling for Epic doesn't automatically mean someone is doing the opposite

That's hilarious. People never knew they were so loyal to Steam until Epic started gaining recognition.

I'm not. You see it in this very topic. People reach for trivial reasons to hate Epic. On another forum this guy tried to convince me Steam is superior because the launcher is super easy user friendly and Epic Launcher is a maze to navigate through. LMAO I mean little boys and girls can load up Fortnite just fine so obviously the dude was making up shit. And I used Steam for years as well, it isn't the easiest thing in the world.

Love GoG, love Steam. Don't support Epic for similar reasons I don't buy Gearbox games unless they're used. Ceo is a prick. Epic also has a ton of investment from Tencent, and that's a company that can rightly go fuck itself.

I haven't used it myself so I don't know how it works, but I assume Fortnite is the easiest thing to reach in that thing. I do believe the people in this thread were talking about the site rather than the software, but whatever.

You have to consider that a lot of people had invested so much into the Steam ecosystem that their entire library/friend list/PC experience is there and having games exclusively on other launchers in PC basically means they have to be dragged screaming and kicking out of Steam for those games, and anything less than what Steam provides will make them complain, with a vocal minority being especially petty about it. At least I recognize that, ultimately, my opinion about the EGS doesn't make a lick of difference, as people will keep going on it and using it and playing the games they want to play however they can.

I don't think Steam is perfect and we've had to beat Valve into submission in the past (such as when they tried introducing paid mods for games like Skyrim). At least they moved quickly to appease their audience and fixed the issues. Epic probably has more money than Valve and their offering is still primitive for what they should be able to offer.

I dont buy on Epic or GOG and I only get games with steam keys.

Not because I want to stick it to the Chinese, but because I like the Steam interface and it is more convenient.
