Thatd the cost of trying to get into the launcher. I think it's working honestly. They just need to stick with it, they really jsut need a cart so you can purchase multiple games.

I have like 80 games on the Epic Game store and I think I've spent a grand total of like $20 in that time.

Their model is not sustainable. I wont' be buying anything on their store unless it's flat-out cheaper than when it goes on sale on Steam, and I suspect that's the point most people are at.

Epic expects its store to turn a profit in 2023,

Lastly, the 12% distribution amount charged by EGS is sufficient to cover the operating costs of EGS.

so in other words, everything as they expected. server cost takes a large initial upfront cost. The cost of the weekly games + the timed exclusives to get insufferables to get over using another installer is a marketing cost they knew of.

Instead of improving their store they're trying to bribe you with exclusives and paying streamers/youtubers
