I mean that's good for developers I suppose but I'm still not going to be buying from Epic.

Epis is very very bad experience. They are trying too hard to sell, pushing things in your face all the time while there is no option to start the launcher in your library - has to be ads. This library also contains a bunch of games you don't own with the link "get", which you have to "uninstall". After playing a game for 65h, recently epic decided "you don't own this game" when starting it from a desktop shortcut, but then changes it's mind once you are in the library. This game also started kicking me out "by anticheat" at the same time (EASYAntiCheat), I think this is connected to epic weird message. Anyway I tried liking epic but it's a bit too shit. I hope developers don't choose to limit themselves and us to fucking epic.
