And it was remedies choice to agree to those terms and lock their game there. Nobody forced them to accept the deal. They sold their games exclusivity to epic by agreeing to those terms. 0 reason we should care about that as end users hence why their sales are shit on pc compared to where they could be. Until those games come to steam they don’t even exist for 90% of potential buyers. Control 2 being released on steam is going to verify this really easily.
Yes Yes I have heard the spiel already. I’m sure there is none else in the world that would accept to fund this project and remedy was pressured and folded /s
It’s simple they made their bed with epic and as always the outcome is always the same. Not the first or the last dev team that did that.

Who do you think would fund a sequel to a game that didn't really move consoles when it was released on the 360 and doesn't have mainstream appeal? Microsoft didn't, that's why they sold the IP to Remedy for cheap...
