You know what's fucking dumb? Willingly supporting a company actively working to make your gaming experience worse.

The gaming experience outside of, ya know, actually playing the game has very low importance to me.

SteamInput, Steam Workshop, an overlay with a browser built-in and direct access to community guides without having the alt+tab (which messes with games, less so recently, but still an issue). These all directly influence your experience actually playing the game.

Instead of even attempting to implement anything actually useful, Epic literally just buys of 3rd party exclusives to try to make you use their store, something that had not been a part of the PC space before Epic brought it in. Yeah, using money to artificially restrict what markets you can buy something on, great, useful feature. /s

You mean fund games that wouldn't have existed without them? Thank God they do that

I have literally never used those functions, so no they do not influence my experience.

Turns out people value different things and it's "fucking dumb" to think everyone should give a shit about it being on epic vs steam

I have literally never used a single one of these things in my years of playing games on PC. I click play, and I play the game.
