This is why I don't give Epic and any exclusives on it's store any money. I know 0% of it is going back into making linux gaming better.
I will happily take advantage of their free giveaways, though.
The data they take from you still gives them recurring revenue.
Not if I don't play the games then
If you ever start the launcher it can start stealing data.
I just use the browser to get the games
Nope. Fuck them, don't give them any market share.
I don't give a rats ass about their market share, epics never going to pass steam, but they still have to pay devs to give away those games, and with a lot of the games being indie titles, I'm perfectly happy for some free money to go into a devs pocket
To add on to this: steam was dog shit before epic came along. A lot of people are either unaware or have forgotten how bad steam actually was until it got some real competition
And if you only care about playing your games then Epic's launcher has the shortcut right in your face when it starts while Steam has it in a separate page with a popup in the way.
People can praise Steam all they want, for new it's just bloated as fuck.
