Yeah, I have no idea how GP thinks Epic is the gold standard. There are way better developers with extremely successful games that don't have this bullshit: Naughty Dog (Last of Us, Uncharted), FromSoft (mentioned, Elden Ring), Portkey Games (Hogwarts Legacy), Guerrilla Games (Horizon), Insomniac (Spider-Man), Santa Monica Studios (God of War), Sucker Punch (Ghost of Tsushima), Rockstar (Red Dead Redemption, Grand Theft Auto[0]) and many others. Epic is near the bottom of the list, not the top.
[0] The online has micro-transactions but even if it didn't exist, the single player experience is well worth the money alone and is on par with all the others.
- throwaway7679 4y agoListing Microsoft and Epic as good guys is wack. "Disagreeing" that Epic's practices are clear-cut intentional abuse had me searching for a punchline.
- 015a 4y ago> I have no idea how GP thinks Epic is the gold standard. Where, exactly, did you read "gold standard"? No one said that. No one hinted to that. The words stated were "great company" and "one of the good ones".
- pb7 4y agoEpic is neither of those so it doesn't matter. >Epic is also a great company, but beyond those two when it comes to major developers/publishers there's far more bad than good I listed all major developers, many of which are owned by mega publishers like Sony.
- mtlmtlmtlmtl 4y agoHogwarts Legacy certainly looks good, but the mobile game hogwarts mystery(or something like that) by the same studio was full of dark patterns and also devoid of actual gameplay.
