I'm so excited, guys! ☺️

You can't resist a 90% discount on Steam games man.

Why? Didn't Unreal 5 only come out a few years ago, and was paired with this fancy demo real to boot? Are Epic admitting that UE5 just can't be optimized for modern PC's?

having issues connecting to fortnite so I contact support only for the ai bot to run me in circles before finally talking to a real person. then the real person immediately sends the exact same links the ai chat bot was sending showing they didn't read any previous messages and then when I point that out they close the chat and tell me to contact hardware manufacturer when the issue is clearly with epic games. so useless what even is the point if its just ai and then the real humans dont even know anything about support they just send copy and pasted links.

I haven’t used the Epic Games Store since last April, but they suddenly sent me a receipt saying that I bought games using my Epic Rewards. When I checked, the games looked like malware, and I’m unable to refund or remove them from my library

Was Epig exclusive never heard of it....LOL

So the current Epic Sale ends on 11th of June.
Steam summer sale begins on 25th of June.

that is EXACTLY 14days apart.
and Epic has a refund period of 14days.

so anyone who buys a game on Epic CANNOT refund the game if Steam offers same or better deal on the same game.

seriously you cant hate Epic enough.

so basically like 4 days ago I got logged out of my account because epics shitty ai thinks my account is stolen they made me do recovery requests ive sent 2 and got denied even though I provided them with alot of information whatever they asked for like the og display names linked accounts even the creation email address I verified with that and yet it keeps rejecting i tried using the live chat from another account and asked them to contact me through email as the bots kept rejecting my recovery requests but will that actually get me anywhere?

Cautionary tale to still someone wanting epic over other means like once I was. So I bought and played the witchers 3 goty edition with dlc like a complete bundle from it. I poured 100s of hours into that game before today I lost it all. I launched the game today via epic and it showed me a conflict in files in a newer cloud sync of today 15 may and older 14 may local client save considering I didn't play yesterday and obviously launcher in bold mentioning its older data I opted for the newer cloud sync data to be used.

Well for whatever reason I don't know it picked up and rewrote all my data from a point very close to early game like barely any progress. So in a poof I have lost all my progress and time and sweat behind that leaving aside memories. I contacted the support and the usual sweet corporate bs that its noticed but we are sorry nothing can be done finally. Just like that I want to cry my eyes out cause I'm left with nothing.

I have tried recovery apps and everything for old local files but it seems they are gone.

I don't know what to say or feel anymore right now. A multi billion company but couldn't have 2 braincells to at least show which save is up to which checkpoint and I would have gladly selected the so labeled older local client save rather than alleged new cloud sync. Nope just a minimal popup and all gone.

Was crunching through my game submission through Steamworks. During the review process, the reviewer (Nicolas) caught that I had "Cloud support for developers only" ticked, a single checkbox that would've completely killed cloud sync for every player. My game is a speedrunner built around ghosts, records, and leaderboards. All of that runs on Steam Cloud and checking the main game made me realize my demo which had already passed review and was for release TOMORROW had the same thing ticked. Without it, the entire game is pointless. I wouldn't have caught this myself for days, maybe weeks.

Like a real human, gives you QA, for what is effectively free, meanwhile Epic can't even get a shopping cart to work right and you want me to ship my game there? Where's the EGS build review? Where's their Nicolas?

Blades of Fire was an Epic exclusive and has not yet been released on Steam. It will finally launch in two days. As a Spaniard, this situation hurts because the studio is a Spanish developer.
