We've seen games sold on Epic for less, and people wait to buy them until they're on Steam. I do it myself, even.
Exactly. Steam provides a service to these companies (a pipeline to customers) and they don’t want to pay.
They are free to make their own, like epic, ubisoft, origin, etc. have, and I am free to continue to use Steam, which I prefer because it provides a service and it works and I feel is a superior product.
Me too. I will not spend a single cent on Epic, but I'll happily buy Steam games.
