Their service is in no way worse: I buy games, and I get them.
I'm excited about the fact that someone provides an alternative to the monopoly that is Steam.
......... The ability to purchase is not the only aspect of a stores service
It's all I need: I buy a game, I download and play it. I don't need anything else.
Ok, and? All you need is water and moldy bread to not die, that doesnt mean water and moldy bread are equivalent in quality to a 3 course meal.
Having a bunch of features that I don't want or need is a waste. The Epic Store and Steam both do exactly what I need, so I don't care about any of whatever the other features are.
So, you dont own any non xbox controllers? Or want to play games properly with friends? Or, hell, want to find a non AAA game? Since epic has way fewer games, and loses a lot of indie darlings?
Correct, correct, not correct (but if they don't sell what I want, then I would buy it elsewhere).
