Launchers are 1 step away from a "store".
I was playing fortnite, and via that launcher they can easily upsell/cross-sell me to their other titles.
I might consider it a "distribution channel" which could serve as a store for sure.
- notSupplied 8y agoThe main between a launcher and a store is how many people have transacted on your platform once and have a credit card saved on file. Epic has secured "1st time payment" from a huge swath of players. This is such a huge and rare opportunity, I'd be surprised if they're not making moves towards becoming a Steam competitor, especially given Tim Sweeny's historically bitter conflict with gatekeepers such as the Windows Store.
