$115 million fucking dollars to have borderlands 3 be exclusive to epic store on pc, which ended up being the worst game in the series lol.

Still makes you wonder if that's roughly how much they pay for every big exclusive. If that's the case, no wonder everyone takes the deal.

Epic isn't paying for exclusives to make short term money. They are trying to get people onto their platform while Fortnite is printing money. Eventually when Fortnite profits slow down they will have a user base on their store.

I assume they are actually building some kind of base because they have been doing this for a while now, but idk how effective it had been so far

Same shit Microsoft is doing with Gamepass. It isn't substainable and tbh might lead to the downfall over modern gaming.

Well that's just wrong as fuck...

BL3 shits all over the Pre-Sequel and DEFINITELY the first game, which is objectively the worst game in the series.
