I'm sure you are ;) I mentioned multiple times that I genuinely have no issues with EGS's approach. Exclusives are annoying, but the only possible way - at least to me - to build up any sort of actual, meaningful competition against Steam. I also honestly enjoy the minimalistic approach of the store itself, since I, personally, can't give less of any interest towards stores trying to build a community around their customers to keep them within their own shop.
I also have a bunch of problems on a social level when it comes to Steam, their handling of problematic games (or better, their not-handling of anything), be it the support of horrible gamedevs or games like Agony or Hatred and countless others. Their "hands-off" approach to curating to me is a silent acceptance of tons of shitheads within the industry, and all their messaging regarding this seems to underline that.
I could also widen this to GoG, which obviously is tightly connected to CDProjekt Red, which also have a bunch of issues to deal with.
The hate against Epic as a company, or Sweeney as a person, is completely understandable, even if I don't necessarily share it on this level. Sweeney's dumb, imo, but his idiotic adventures come from a good place and he is (again, imo) legitimately trying to help devs and players. Again, it's fine if you don't agree, I get that. What I don't get is this incredibly massive hate boner and the "gotcha" attitute towards people who aren't in line with it, idk.
Well, you asked.
