But you can always load up an EGS game in Steam as a non-Steam game and have full access to Steam Input on it that way, so why would Epic spend time and effort re-inventing the wheel when they have other priorities?

Why would Epic implement a feature when I could just run Epic games through Steam? Why don't I just use Steam then?

Maybe the game was free on EGS but not on Steam?

So still not an argument for giving Epic any of my money.

You're right and it never was. Because the game is free on one platform and not the other in this scenario.
