It's an incredibly poor look having to even resort to comparing epic to the era of 2004. That's like someone referring back to the days of flip phones for why a new current day phone release should get a pass. Even having to do that is a poor reflection.
Having to rely on hypotheticals over the actual offering of epic isn't a good look. It's not our job or your job to convince us why epic is worth spending money in. That's epic's job.
Why couldn't that happen a second time?
Maybe because steam is already extremely popular and has improved more in the last few years than Epic has.
I don't know how popular stardock was but it couldn't have been anywhere close to how popular steam is now.
Epic hasn't really done anything to improve.
