Well Epic does have the "super powers" mentioned towards the end of the article. They have Unreal Engine and Fortnite. The former brings developers, the latter brings players.
They also have unlimited money to bribe developers and players, with paid exclusivity and frequent giveaways.
So maybe they didn't score 100 on the test, but they definitely got a passing grade at least.
- colinmhayes 4y agoEpic is also just cheaper than steam for developers. Yes, they pay for exclusivity deals, but the developers don't mind much because they're getting an extra 10% of revenue. They'd prefer users migrate to the epic store. I wouldn't say that having a better revenue share is "bribing", but maybe their plan was to go up to the 30% rate once they became popular.
