Imagine if it said "Epic" instead of "Steam" in the headline.

Exactly what I was thinking, people would be mad as hell. Heck, a few months ago I made someone realize they didn't own their games on Steam because they were complaining about Epic and it blew their fucking mind.

There are two and only two things that makes Epic Games a pariah.

(1)Exclusive content on PC should be shunned so hard that it's not even a fucking option. You can explain away exclusively on PS3 because of its unique hardware, but it's just a naked monopolistic power grab on PC.

(2) Epic game store sucks on every level. It's a pigs 3 week old rotting corpse compared to Valve's packaged ham.

Whew, that’s much better. I’ve always avoided the Epic store like the plague so nothing lost!
