If you're competing against steam, you need to make your experience as good or better than steam.
From what people tell me, because I don't have it myself, the epic game store is really rough around the edges not a fun experience.

It still has no review system.
They still have no Linux version.
They still have many bugs in the store.
It... its a mess
This is very common among big tech companies and we should start treating it as what it is, a scam.
I don't know why. I own about 80 games from Epic. I didn't pay a dime tough.
Oh wow I thought I was the only one.
Good reason to shut it down then. No one needs their crap anyway.
That's what you get for bringing platform game exclusivity to the PC, trash!
I just bought the only game I'll likely ever buy on EGS. It was Alan Wake 2. Being published by Epic, it will unlikely ever be anywhere else until EGS shuts down.
My justifications are as follows: I love the developer and want to support them.
That's it. The experience was.. fine, but far from streamlined. The Epic achievement system is terrible. Imagine walking around in a horror game, immersed in the atmosphere, then a loud cheery mobile app chime blaps through your headphones and a giant banner splatters across the top of your screen announcing your achievement totally jarring you out of the atmosphere.
Then, imagine you find out you can turn on a 'do not disturb' mode by pressing shift+f3, then imagine you need to turn it on every time you launch the game. That's the Epic Games Store experience in a nutshell.
Wait..they sell games, too?
Is it "selling" if nobody's buying?
L tbh. They don't even have good regional pricing unlike Steam.
