Abso-fucking-lutely not. That’ll be the death of epic and unreal engine as we know it if it ever happened. And why team up with Google if you know they’ll abandon it in 2-3 years?
Just let us play with our balls in peace! :(

They will abandon stock for Tencent. Easy 100% of stocks speedrun
Yeah first thing they probably do is end the free games and without it I wouldn't have any games on Epic nor use the platform. It would suck.
In case anyone didn't read the article, this was all the way back in 2018. They're not buying Epic any time soon, relax.
Also they discussed approaching Tencent internally, they didn't actually make plans with them. The title sort of implies they were both in talks.
I can tell folks here didn't read the article. These talks were in 2018, when Stadia was still a thing.
Wonder what the point of sharing this article is
The Epic v Google lawsuit is bringing to light a lot of interesting tidbits of info, so I think it's just that. It's an interesting tidbit, but not really relevant to much outside the trial. That said, I do like seeing this kind of info shared, as it gives us a peek behind the curtain of these megacorps' operations.
Baiting the anti-Epic crowd.
Had to check to see if Stadia even existed in 2018 (it did), because it's totally plausible for it to have come and gone in less time
One school of thoughts is companies go through eras of profiting from inflation and eras of profiting from M&As. Guess an uptick in M&A would suggest they're no longer increasing profits from inflation?
Corporations see others getting profit as competition, and it makes sense to consolidate profits so "Everyone wins" (everyone excluding the consumer)
