Epic games store

The epic games store is a digital store front where you can buy pc games on windows and mac os. It is owned and operated via a joint venture between Chinese corporate interests and Epic Games.

The Epic Games Store is popular for poor gamers who gobble up the free game offerings and mental cripples who don't have a problem with supporting a company that has awful and immoral business practices.

Its whiny CEO Tim Sweeney attempts to portray Epic Games as developer friendly by accepting a revenue share of 12% ( the industry standard is closer to 30%). However, developer crunch still exists and is [on] to provide updates and maintenance for Epic Games' golden goose: Fortnite.

Epic Games also preys on independent/desperate/myopic game developers to release exclusively on their platform for an undisclosed sum of money. This even includes games that were [on other digital store-fronts] for **[[1]]** before reaching an exclusivity agreement.

The Epic Games Store is repeatedly defended by its unthinking customers as essential to guarantee "market competition" in opposition to Valve Software's Steam digital storefront. This claim is made regardless of anti-competitive behavior by the Epic Games Store ( exclusivity deals ) and the presence of actual market competition ( gog.com, EA's origin, Ubisoft's uPlay, itch.io, Battle.net, Bethesda Launcher, MS Store, etc.)

Epic Games Store customers fall into two categories:

- Poor gamers who only keep an account to claim free games - Mouth breathing, knuckle-dragging, intellectual insects with the patience of a raging meth-addicted chimpanzee who need to buy their favorite thing **right now**.
