Epic is still the under dog here. They’re nothing compared to Apple.
Even if this is all in Epic’s selfish best interest, that doesn’t matter if their interest is more aligned with smaller app developers’ interests.
The balance of power is still shifted well towards Apple.
- gambiting 6y agoWeeeeell.....yes, except that Epic has Tencent behind their back, and while Apple is still bigger, Tencent isn't that far behind.
- icebraining 6y agoTrue, but how much is Tencent really willing to dump behind this fight? There's only so much upside for them even if Epic wins.
- gambiting 6y agoI guess that's what remains to be seen. But Epic seems to be throwing their most valuable property at it right now, so they must have some degree of confidence that a larger player will back them on this.
- stock_toaster 6y agoHow much would the CCP be willing to dump behind a fight to make one of the most valuable US company/brands in the world look bad? I'm betting.. a lot.
