you guessed it right from a dev perspective it was always the right decision to make the game epic exclusives and the share is even bigger.

What do you think why so many devs launching it exclusive on epic? Because they are so close to their community? Who made it possible that they could do a sequel in the first place? From a dev perspective: a) its selling bad on epic -> well it is exclusive so they made money nonetheless, b) its selling good on epic -> double win for dev, c) it's launching 1 year later on steam and selling both bad on steam and epic, maybe the game was ♥♥♥♥ or people protesting -> safe money from epic, d) now you have the options it was a bad/good sell on steam/epic and bad/good on the other. There are so many examples of good indie games selling very good and making good money on steam without being exclusive on epic.īy now everyone should finally know that epic exclusives are ALWAYS a lose situation for the customer. They made money by selling it only on epic, and people that want to play the game instead of worshipping a store will play it.Īh yes, shouldnt it be the intention to develop a good game and it will be selling to 'people that want to play the game' instead of making money through making it exclusive? Its not about whorshipping, you can spare your exaggeration here.
