There is no rhyme or reason with GM. They’re completely incapable of innovating by themself in the electric or self driving space so they’re just throwing all their R&D budget into acquisitions and partnerships. Started with Cruise, now

Epic miscalculated because they weren’t ever expecting a real legal battle. They wanted Fortnite to get removed from the App Store in hopes that their rabid fan base of adolescent Fortnite gamers would create insane amounts of bad PR for Ap

Which is smart of them. I’d guarantee that every company with a financial interest in the App Store would start putting up banners about the fee in an effort to stoke the Epic x Apple tensions in their favor. Let the court decide the case w

As a savvy software engineer, you should realize how much work it would take to implement a system to allow secondary stores when it would be of absolutely no benefit to Apple.

Epic Games has absolutely no moral authority here as long as they charge a royalty fee to games made with their Unreal Engine.

But there are other Smartphone platforms with their own store, correct? I don’t know why people feel it’s their undeniable right to be able to provide an app to iOS users.

That’s not a monopoly though. No one is being forced into using an iOS device. A monopoly would be if Apple was literally the only smartphone manufacturer in the entire world.

Doesn’t Epic take a cut out of every single purchase made of a game built with Unreal Engine? Seems kinda hypocritical that they’re taking this stance when their licensing model is arguably just as burdensome on developers. In my opinion, E

It’s interesting to see Epic taking this stance. I’d wonder how they’d feel if companies simply started to not follow the Unreal Engine licensing terms because they’re big enough to get away with it.
