PC Gamer published an article which explains how this is good for 2K, ignores the consumer perspective and implies that those who have a problem with EGS are Steam loyalists.
Looks pretty cool but I'm a bit disappointed that the game looks literally identical to BL2 graphically.
You should be able to add anything to Big Picture Mode as long as you direct it to the correct .exe file. I've done it plenty of times with non-steam games.This is probably a stupid question, so I apologize if so, but can you add Epic games to your Steam library via the "Add a Non-Steam Game" feature?
I really love using Big Picture Mode with Steam link in my bedroom and I'd prefer to launch things from that interface.
Oh wow. Kudos to those who took the time to put this together. Bookmarked.
Kotaku did basically the same thing... It's pretty sadPC Gamer published an article which explains how this is good for 2K, ignores the consumer perspective and implies that those who have a problem with EGS are Steam loyalists.
Beyond completely worthless, this so called games media.

It's sad. Their articles about EGS are reading like PR written by Epic.
I'm done with pc gamer. I've removed them from my favorites and on social media.
It may also be a good idea to stop linking them here, you're only giving them extra clicks. Use way back machine or make a screen shot when necessary.
It depends on the country. Epic doessn't support local currencies for a lot of places and for those places the price is in dollars. Additionally unless you have a Brazilian payment option (a brazilian card) you won't be able to purchase as your payment will fail. Lastly, even if you somehow manage to buy it...your EGS will LOCK to the region you bought your first game in and the only way to change it is by contacting support...which means you can't do it frequently or else you'll get flagged.Yo guys, can someone help me out here. I'm trying to experiment on the regional pricing on Epic Games Store, and I'm using Brazil as my example.
When I set my account to brazil and go to purchase, Borderlands 3 first shows 59.99 USD, then at checkout it changes to 30 USD, which is 116 Brazilian Real.
Does EGS always show USD as the currency? Or should the currency reflect the region?
I have a couple pictures attached. I don't know if it's just something wrong with the store.
Yeah this is every bit like timed third party console exclusivity. Remember, Rise of the Tomb Raider? I didn't see many defending that and applauding MS for bringing competition when PC and PS4 gamers had to wait. But it was different I guess... :pPeople everywhere are letting their desires for change from Valve cloud the fact that Epic has shitty business practices. The ends don't justify the means and it is incredibly frustrating to see the amount of people that are blindly embracing it all. Nothing, and I repeat, nothing has been to the benefit of consumers so far
I'm not as pessimistic about this game as I was for the Dev Trailer, but man I just think these trailers have been *bad*
Cool, I'm happy for you
I mean there's a lot to be annoyed by when it comes to EGS.

But a game being full price before launch? Really?
I wonder how long this is going to go on for. Paying to keep games off steam specifically.

I mean that's neat, but to complain about a game being full price before launch and citing that as a reason to not get a game is still weird to me.Third party sellers usually list keys for 5-20% off leading up to release. That's how I do most of my purchases. Valve doesn't get a cut and the revenue split between publishers/devs and third parties is negotiated independent of Valve. It's the best approach I've seen so far that works in favor of devs and consumers. Epic doing something similar would kill at least some of the ire, I think.
Its weird that whenever examples like that get brought up, people ignore it. Like, it clearly wasn't okay when Microsoft did it. Why is it okay now?
For people who don't care about platform,this has no impact. For people who wanted Steam,6 months is not that long.
Nevertheless, if people bought a PS4 for Bloodborne,I don't understand how they just can't install a different launcher for 6 months earlier release.
Yeah, it's been a recurring discussions surrounding this deal because this is the first 6-months deal they've made. People believe that it's due to Take Two asking for too much from Epic. It's a very high profile new game after all.I wonder why only 6 months.
Is it because Epic doesn't want to spend a lot of money on a single game or because deep down Take-Two knows the game will sell much less without Steam...

He doesn't like the negative attention Gearbox is receiving as a result of the exclusivity deal, so he's making a commitment he knows he won't have to keep in an attempt to shift the discussion away from this snafu and to Valve being the "bad guys" because it seemingly refuses to pull Half-Life out of suspended animation.
