MODERATORS
Humble isn't trying to compete with Steam or Epic, and they don't engage in the anti-consumer practice of paying off developers for exclusive access to games.
I'm aware of the complexities of software development. If Epic seriously wanted to compete with Steam, they really should have tried harder to provide a better service instead of trying to buy loyalty through free games and exclusivity contracts.
