Nah mate, Steam is just the best game platform on PC. A game has access to so many features like cloud saves, community, workshop, matchmaking when it comes out on Steam, while the users have access to user reviews, curators, guides, sales, bundles etc etc. Epic doesn’t have most of those features. And yes, a game dev can go out of their way to create those features for their game, on Steam they don’t have to. Epic had all the time in the world to implement even half of them, but they still haven’t. GOG is an alternative because it offers something Steam won’t, and it’s been going great for them. Epic is just a bootleg version of Steam. Their only claim to fame is their free game giveaways, but even then you’re stuck playing the game without the features Steam users have.
This is so painfully close to being Loss. There’s got to be a way to juggle those squares around just right.
