I mean Epic has always launched faster than Steam by a wide margin for me. Steam is what I use for most everything but it is slower.

Also to clarify this is across 5 different computers in our household.

Microwaving a steak is faster than grilling it, but nobody wants a microwaved steak.

Okay? In the end though one is faster which was what was brought up. Like Steam has been slower for probably the past 6 years or something.

Also funny enough I looked it up and microwaving a steak is roughly the same as cooking it on a cast iron or hot grill haha. So worst of both worlds with your example.

Have you ever microwaved a steak? Nobody is saying it won’t be cooked, but it will not taste right, which is the point of the comparison.
