in all fairness, that's always been a line of copium. all epic had to do was follow the blueprint. it didn't even have to be Steam's blueprint. they could have followed their own from their ue store or any store that had a shopping cart in the 90s. they're not some small indie games company hiring talent from highschool who can't code for shit. they make billions a year. same can be said for all the other game stores that failed due to their intentional lack of trying and handwave their failures as "dur, Steam wins because head start derp".

how many people here actually tried the epic launcher. i used it for a while when they were giving away free games. i gave them an honest shot and the platform was simply not good enough.

they could've turned their nuisance ware into an actual platform but they simply didn't have a good product.
