I get that Steam is where everything and everyone is at. And that the user experience and functionality is best there BUT having another player to try an compete with Steam is a good thing, right?

If anyone can try, it's the Fortnite Bank.

So, why the hate?

There's absolutely nothing wrong with epic games store. People think just because everyone on the internet told them not to like it so they have to not like it. It's a store. It sells you games then when you click on the game it opens so you can play. That's it literally that's all it does same as steam same and Xbox. Just like stores in real life I buy things where the price is the best which sometimes means I buy on epic or steam depending on the sales.

After reading your comment I'm not sure if it's just me, but I tend to not buy where owner of the store treat me like shit. Neither in real life nor online.
