    Me: All I care about is that it launches games

    You: If that’s all I wanted (implying that you want more) I would just pirate the games because Epic doesn’t offer a product that’s better than pirating

    Me: Well, Epic actually offers more than pirating games does if your care about that

    You: Oh now you care about the extra features!

    No, I’m trying to show you that their product meets your demands, that’s how arguments work.

    They proportionally have more DRM free games than Steam too…

      Then there is zero reason for you to buy games from Epic. That is a function that can be performed for free. It’s like paying for air or sunshine. What kind of idiot pays money for something they can get for free?

      You just seem to be completely ignoring the fact that I’ve already addressed all the features you brought up and most of them are pretty useless or are available to pirated games anyway. Certainly they are not worth actually spending money on when GoG and Steam do all those things and much more. Even if you had cash to spare and you just wanted those features with minimal hassle, there is still zero reason to buy from Epic.

      jfc I’ve never seen someone defend so vehemently a product not having features. Epic is a multibillion dollar corporation with apparently thousands of employees, they don’t need you to bootlick for them.

        I buy my games where they’re the cheapest and I buy them so the devs can continue making games, you’re pretty fucking dumb to waste money to have access to useless features!

          Oh man, I’m about to blow your mind then!

          STEAM KEYS

          Devs get more money since Valve doesn’t get their 30% cut and they are cheaper than the Epic counterparts! It’s a perfect solution!

          What is the status of Epic’s key program btw, is that something they don’t have? Shocker.

          you’re pretty fucking dumb to waste money to have access to useless features!

          I literally use Steam Proton, Steam Input and my Steam Deck nearly every day, and SteamVR at least a couple times a month. All things Epic doesn’t have. Gaming would be super annoying if I was actually forced to use EGS. Billion dollar company with thousands of employees, btw.
