> a healthy competitor to Steam, not only for developers but for consumers as well I'm not sure I agree here. As a consumer, competition is good for me if I either get something I didn't already, or if I get the same but cheaper. EGS provides neither: it has less features than its competitors, and the prices are either the same, or the games are exclusives, making comparisons impossible. Exceptions, like Outer Worlds, cost exactly the same on Microsoft Store as it does on Epic Store. The consumer gets nothing. They just get another meaningless alternative, another scavenger for their attention, loyalty and wallets.
