The Epic Games that gives free distribution when you use their other product, UE4? The Epic Games that buys exclusives away from other markets by pushing a boatload of money into some games, money they got from a third product: Fortnite.
Sounds they will do great as a phone app distributor.
- ocdtrekkie 6y agoEvery single avenue is open: Developers can decide whether or not to use Unreal Engine, and still use the Epic Store. Developers can decide whether or not to use the Epic Store, and still release on any other platform. They also let you use any payment provider you want. You can take Unreal games and sell them on Steam. You can take Unreal games and pile Steam's services layer into them. I get that Epic has earned a bunch of butthurt from gamers because they... offered developers money... but this is fundamentally opposite to the behaviors of Apple and Google, where their 30% app tax is compulsory, and use of their services is mandatory.
