I don't think the presence of the library on Steam is doing that much work here. Epic's been giving games away for free for five years to alleviate that issue, but it doesn't work. And ultimately, you have to ask: what's in it for me to buy a game from Epic when I get better features on Steam? On GOG, I have an answer to that question, but on Epic, I don't.
