We're 6 pages in and I've not seen anything so I'm going to assume it's just wishful thinking.
Yeah. The new rules were specifically designed to prevent this exact circumstance.
Let's see...
We haven't got any evidence when it comes to larger publishers, but we know they straight up just gave money to Coffee Stain Studios. They admitted as much in their Epic Games FAQ.
I never said I wouldnt buy it, I'll just get it on Uplay, but as someone who has the first game on steam its really fucking dumb that I'll be unable to have both there.
The article says nothing about Ubi having a timed exclusive
From my experience with Indian steam store, Ubi games don't benefit much from regional pricing much because the price difference are small to non existent in contrast to other games where the price can be half or less than half. uplay already does 20% discount.
Only thing we can do as consumers is to not buy games from their store. Also, don't redeem their free games too.
Please explain this freedom you describe where we are losing options with where to buy this game?
Feel free to provide me with a source explicitly proving that Epic is moneyhatting publishers and developers into releasing games exclusively on their store.
Yeah im curious why too. The complaints are somewhat odd in this case since you're forced to use Uplay for this game anyway even if it was on steam and you could always buy it there anyway. I guess just out of principle for supporting epics store or something?
PC gamers aren't asking for games to be exclusive to Steam. Freedom means games being on every storefront and storefronts competing on their own features and prices, not limiting where you can buy the game.
"Ubisoft and Epic said they will "also partner on additional select titles [coming to the Epic Games Store] to be announced during the coming year."
