So when will this game become Epic timed exclusive

[JIMSL1CE]

I'm guessing after it gets enough attention here on Steam

No Steam - no buy! Remember these words, Frozenbyte.

[WinNytHepOOh]

Are you guys telling that to every new Steam game out there now??

Poor Epic, they get a lot of hate nowadays!

But don't worry, we have no plans for this. We hope to support other digital retailers as well, but at this point we can only promise that the game will be sold on Steam. :)

GOG is the one I would buy at launch

So it'll be on Steam at the game's launch? Not one year later or something like that?

And yeah it's justifiably so that Epic get a lot of hate...

Yes but they deserve it. Their launcher is terrible and instead of fixing it, they're buying exclusives to force us to use it.

Thank you for putting your customers first!

Awesome. I'll get Trine 4 the money its available on Steam. Also the hatred / dislike towards Epic is absolutely deserving. If you wanna know everything that is wrong with Epic and their store in details, please follow the link below to find out. Or you can check the TL:DR version to get a summery.

https://steamcommunity.com/groups/NoExclusiveGames/discussions/0/1796278072844560561/

TL:DR version :

Forced third party exclusive deals and robbing us customers the options to to buy from other stores like Steam / GOG

Restricting / preventing other official stores from competing and selling those games on their stores and any third party sites for cheaper

Implementing all kinds of anti-consumer policies on their stores and strongarming them on customers.

Lack of many features of other storefronts / launchers, chiefly Steam

No forum support

Review system is opt-in by developers / publishers who has full control over it

Epic's disdain of PC gamers calling them toxic, pirates and blaming PC gamers for lack of sales

Limited and convoluted refund system

Epic owned 48 percent by the Chinese company Tencent who is infamous for spying and censoring people

Epic collaborating with the Chinese company Tencent to sell user information to them or with any others in the world as stated in their EULA

Epic's lack of security on their store / launcher with numerous hacking successful attempts

Epic does not comply with the GDPR laws set by the EU and have seemingly broken a few

Epic's CEO, Tim Sweeney expressing his desire for an open free PC platform where stores and customers can freely compete and buy games from without restriction while doing the exact opposite with forced third party exclusives and strongarming customers with anti-consumer policies. He has recently stated on Twitter that Epic wants to compete by creating "store wars" and forced third party exclusives on their store instead of improving their stores with better features and services to appeal to customers

Bad or lack of regional pricing

Bad customer service

Every point you mentioned is wrong.
Steam had only one real advantage you didnt mention, allowing erotic games, but looks like its not the case anymore.
