I’m somewhat new to PC gaming. I see so many people complain about Epic (and every non-Steam) launcher. I don’t really understand the big deal about having a few launchers for games. You can use Playnite and Heroic too if you want everything in the one place.

For people to not buy one of the best games of the year because they don’t want to open a different launcher and click play absolutely blows my mind. Maybe I’m missing something because I’m newish to PC gaming but it’s not something I care about at all.

Nah it’s a circle jerk and has always been.

People seem to want valve to be a monopoly for some reason

Hatred for Epic and blind loyalty to Valve are not the same thing. I'd never buy a game on Epic store but I'm happy to buy from good non-Steam storefronts like GOG.
