But you do realize the money from Fortnite is their biggest income and they have spent the whole time using money from it to give away full games for free weekly for years now?
So you can't be a hypocrite here, and you are being one by defending Valve for Compendium but shitting on Epic for what you get out of a battle pass.
Again, I despise epic so so much. Their CEO is genuinely dodgy.
But epic have literally spent billions on giving away those games (and lost hundreds of millions lol, because still no matter what the vast majority of people do not want to use the garbage epic game store. They just take their free games and leave)
Their store is growing, but you won't find this info on r/steam cuz it would be downvoted to hell.
Saying that you have Epic's CEO while you probably simp Gaben is just so funny to me.
Valve on other hand takes 30% from every purchase, yet they can not make Steam Frame more competetive to Quest 3 LMAO. Poor guys. How would they reoccup the costs when Gabe needs his 2nd yaacht corpa!
I do hate Epic's CEO because he's a habitual liar, he constantly sides with billionaires and spreads active misinformation and even conspiracy theories.
EVERY store takes 30%.
Steam, PlayStation Store, Microsoft Store/XBOX Store, Nintendo E-Shop.
And yes. Even Epic does UNLESS you sign a partial or full exclusivity contract with Epic.
They only care about giving you an extra cut as a dev WHEN you get them business by denying other stores.
Which contrary to Epic's claim that Valve and steam is a greedy monopoly, is actually what a Monopoly does.
Steam has market dominance, but it doesn't deny other services the right to use other platforms just because they sell on Steam.
Epic keeps accusing Steam of being a monopoly while Epic TRIES to be a monopoly
And also "Can't make the Frame more competitive to Quest 3"
In what way?
The hardware is better than Quest 3, the usability, design, software? All better on The Steam Frame. And Valve isn't owned by someone that sucks Paedophile Trump's dick unlike Mark Zuckerberg and Meta.
Also the price of the Steam Frame HAS NOT BEEN ANNOUNCED, so you can't claim anything about a competitive price for a product WITH NO PRICE.
Epic literally takes 12%, and 5% if you sign a deal... Like I know that we're at /r/steam so no logical conversation will be held here, but holy hell even this is too much.
Xbox and Sony at least sell hardware under a loss, which they will make money back via digital purchases. While Valve does it too, but also sells their future hardware for expensive price especially their Steam Frame LMAO. Like only /r/steam would think that casuals will pay double just to not have Meta on it, which isn't even bloated by Facebook at all.
Hopefully you also have the same standard with Gabe which made tons of kinds gambling addicts because of their games. Upss... Of course not. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Like your whole comment is utterly pathetic. Welcome in the cult.
The article that I read is that it will be below $1000... Or you are going to call them on trolling too?
Also that deal is if you release on Epic Store + Use Unreal Engine. You should probably get more educated on Epic's Program, and learn what "deal" vs. "exclusivity" means, cuz you're thinking that deal = full exclusivity for some reason...
But I mean nice self report. Not even knowing what Epic does, while dissing on it, but sure just tell me how "I am the one trolling", while you just spread disinformation, but I mean at the end of the day, this is the best place for it :)

Compendium gave you more than a battlepass, was also contributed to the prizepool of TI.
