I was stupid and bought Satisfactory on Epic a few years ago. Legitimately considering buying it on steam so that i can permanently uninstall Epic from my computer. Literally the only reason I have it.

I ended up buying it again when it was released on steam. Coffee Stain is an amazing studio, so it didnt feel bad at all.

I played Control there. Glad Remedy was able to get onto steam with the last game.

I’ve been tempted to do the same with Allen Wake 2

I finally played the first one last year on Steam! It’s super fun and still holds up really well. First game I’ve actually rolled credits on in years hahah

This is me! Only game VERY bought on EGS was Satisfactory because I got hooked on the Alpha Free Play that year.
Rebought on Steam for 2 reasons:
1. So I didn't have top play on that launcher ever again.
2. Further support CSS as a bonus.

ok bonus reason: it was on sale :)

I bought a few games on Epic for my son mostly since he does use that store sometimes. I log into his account if I ever want to play some of those games which hasn't happened yet so I'm not worried about it anymore.

I did just that.  Red dead redemption 2 as well.  Both were good enough to pay twice for so I wouldn't have to use epic.

I have a friend who only has Satisfactory on Epic, it's such a pain in the ass to play with them. Opposed to the infinitely simpler: send invite -> friend accept invite

I got my favorite game ever subnautica free on epic. A couple months later I bought it on steam, this is literally a case of you couldn’t pay me to use that launcher

u/Mightygamer96 5h ago

try heroic launcher. it combines Gog and Epic. without installing epic games launcher. it can even add the games to steam

u/Foxx1019 4h ago

That's what I did lol. Same with Borderlands 3.

Same , the only thing kinda preventing me is how Coffee stain behaved to steam at first "the launcher we dont name" during the epic exclusivity craze.
