No, it doesn't at all. All of this was just preparation for the Microsoft acquisition, by having Actiblizzard games in a third party platform as a way to show that they're "not creating a monopoly"
They why not on epic?
Because the Epic Launcher is a flaming pile of shit.
I agree, but if Blizzard was just trying to pretend to be a fair company, they launched their product on a near monopoly platform and chose badly.
Steam is not a monolopy platform. The Blizzard launcher is more of a monolopy platform than Steam is. Epic pays for exclusivity deals to keep games off other launchers. Steam has never done that with any games except their own.
Nobody sells on Epic unless Epic pay them.
