Nothing more disappointing to me than seeing a game I might enjoy... and then it's only available on PC on Epic Games store. Why can't it be available on Epic, Xbox game store and Steam? It's so annoying, like you have no choice but to use Epic... which I would literally do ANYTHING not to use.

they pay devs (mostly indie) millions to make their games exclusive to epic for up to over a year. i'd rather not support a company that pays to limit your choice as a consumer

I guess I don't feel limited because I already have an epic account, which was free to create

care to state your point directly?

I get a game and indie devs get millions. When you put it that way, it seems morally better to use Epic over Steam.
