It's Epic exclusive because they gave the devs big stack of money, so that probably offsets the low sales. It's like with Against the Storm, it was Epic exclusive for many years (in early access), then finally comes to Stream and everbody loves it. They kinda milked Epic for cash, then let the Stream rip the rewards with full release.
Wonder whether that's pretty good move financially?
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands was Epic exclusive and it didn't seem to make a splash on either release. I wonder if it's because people didn't make the leap to Epic but lost interest by the time it was on Steam? Or maybe Borderlands 3 made people lose interest in the franchise.
The game was not great, at least personally. It wasn't bad, but it was just BL3 in a different dress, with less interesting story, less interesting characters. Also the DLCs were insane cashgrabs, not even close to the value BL3 DLCs had.
Really wanted to like it, it's been a long time seems a good BL game, but the quests were tedious and the melee didn't work.
The whole arpg loop where they give you shitty weapons for the first few hours sucks
