I don't like Google (and they deserve an L), but Epic really shouldn't be given a win either. Pardon my Australian, but Tim Sweeney is cunt with ulterior motives and dreams of buying his way into his own monopoly.

care to layout how he buy his way into his own monopoly?

  • buy exclusives or studio? most big publishers do that.
  • give free games out? It's consumer friendly.
  • drive Valve or other store front out of business? lol
  • make EGS/EOS so good and free that no one wants to publish on Steam? lol, any advance in that 2 department Steam as platform will respond way before they take foot hold. (EOS voice chat back end does work nicer compare to steam's one if the game build for it. BUT, many gamers just use discord instead.)

anything I missed?

Epic's capital is tiny compare to other big publishers.(MS, Sony, Tencent)

Is @PenguinTD@lemmy.ca an astroturfer or simply clueless? Maybe we'll never know...
