I’m genuinely shocked how much Epic poured into the store and it still lacks so much basic features. Sorting games is still extremely barebones, store is filled with NFT/crypto garbage, the store still looks like a college student’s first front-end project, and last time I used the launcher to pick up free games (last year), it was still slow as hell. What were they doing in the past 5 years aside from dropping millions on exclusivity deals?
Epic is going to have to prioritize the store and try some new initiatives while also doubling down on earning pivotal exclusives if it is going to have a chance. I also hope other viable competitors arrive.
I mean, you can get banned from Steam and lose all your games at well…
You know, the centralization around Steam isn’t a thing people should be wishing for…
I’ve heard of people getting banned from online play on steam, but haven’t heard of anyone losing their library. I guess if you only play online, it could be the same effect (so maybe don’t be a douchebag when playing online?)
I don’t play multiplayer, except the rare occasion, and it’s usually direct connect (which you can’t be banned from), so I wouldn’t care.
At any rate, I’m not saying steam is perfect or should be the only store, just that EGS fucking sucks. I agree with Randy Pitchford; We should have many viable competitors. Options are good. Epic is not a good option.
How in the world can you get banned from steam proper?
