Prix fall guys switch11/29/2023 If you generalize like that than you are also saying that no one buys on GOG, itch.io, Humble store, or on any other digital PC game store. Epic's free game giveaways only tend to average 4-5 games per account per year, too, which should tell you all you need to know about how poorly their platform is viewed by all but a tiny number of people.Įdit: you'll have to settle for this, since one of the mods wants to stifle discussion in a discussion forum. That's a staggeringly poor sales figure for the platform that has had exclusive access to so many of the most desirable games in recent years, including RDR2. Obviously, neither myself nor u/SenorBeef are saying that literally nobody uses the store, but in a colloquial sense it is true. They sell about 4-4.5m games per year across their entire store. Nobody uses it now, even when they are forced to. No one would use their storefront if they didn't force you to. People who think that somehow, steam, who gets the most customers totally voluntarily by providing the best service, is somehow a monopoly, but epic, who is literally buying up developers so you can't get their games anywhere else, is good for consumers, are. Epic can't compete on a level playing field because they're garbage. Epic just buying everything up and saying "you have no choice, you have to come here if you want this product" is not good for consumers. That's bad for consumers.Ĭompetition is good when it makes a better product for consumers. That's exactly the sort of behavior you're imagining steam does. On the other hand, epic is not some sort of hero because they're forcing you to go to their store to play a game. There is absolutely nothing steam does to enforce any sort of monopoly. Steam gets a lot of business because they provide the best service and people like to go there. Submit a new deal Submit a question/PSA Reddit New Deals Popular Deals Meta
