Remember when Metro Exodus was an Epic Games exclusive?

Me neither.

I bought it on release since i love the metro series and it was worth it, good game.

Yup, the only reason i even have a dedicated machine for gaming is so that I can play Metro games. But I would be damned before I spent any money to support Deep Silver when the do shenanigans like they done with the ME release. Nope... not rewarding a bad behavior.

Stupid exclusivity deals with Oculus and then with Epic drove me away from 4A. I'll never buy another one of your products again.

I hope that's not true. Metro games are fun, but not a reason to build a PC lol.

If you want suggestions check my library. I've been gaming since home PC's were a thing; I don't buy trash (2-3 mistakes maybe) and I thrive on variety. I have others not listed on steam as well.

My post is being snarky about games being timed exclusives and whole communities saying they're going to boycott the game, then when the game comes to other platforms everybody has amnesia and buys the game. It always happens. It doesn't matter what game it is.

they only boycott it untill it stops being exclusive to try and insensitive them to stop it, sure not buying the game at all would leave more of a message but companys still want to return a profit quickly

[Philthy]

yea, i do. would have paid full price for the game on release. now i waited 2 years for minimum price.

[Sepitus]

bought mine (gold) a couple of days ago for £18. wish they had sorted out the crash on the To The Lighthouse mission (where you are crossing the boat to the lighthouse) and now ive just come across another crash at the start of The Watchtower mission. Glad i did not pay full price for the game.

Epic games in its current form will be forgotten in 10 years time, what they were in the past wont be . . . And neither will steam, at any stage . . .

[Brilliant Pebbles]

I got this pre-ordered as an x-mas present, so i had the steam version before it was an epic exclusive.

[Sifer2]

I got it for 8 dollars plus 11 other games on Humble Bundle just in time for enhanced edition. Humble didn't even offer Epic keys for it lol. I definitely feel vindicated in waiting it out.

That's kinda like me only getting a Series X for Red Dead 1 lol

Kind of a waste of money but then again it's such an awesome game, wish it would come to PC.

I have nothing against EGS but I refuse to support them.

They scream loud, they complain, they don't do anything of merit with the money they earn, and their launcher is malware. So, I won't be using it.

I see Steam doing much more of value to me with the extra money they earn. Sure, their prices are steeper - but that isn't a consideration for me.

I waited a year. Gives them a chance to iron out issues and for me to use the platform I want to use, not the one they stipulated for me. I think it worked out well.

Steam provide a far better service for it's customers and developers, there is a reason they charge more. Anyway 30% cut is the standard in the industry. If Steam didn't have any forums, cloud saves, preloading support, superior UI and even a damn shopping cart then maybe you could call in question how much they take.

Epic invest everything into Fortnite and bribing devs and nothing into the store and platform itself which makes it a miserable experience for anyone that uses their services.
I let the better platform win and so far that's Steam by a massive margin.

Yeah.. this game was a day 1 for me until they went with Epic... so I waited and got it on the last sale at 66% off.
