Why hate epic game players ?

[Gökyüzü]

Since currency change(im from Turkey) im buyying my games from epic store.

And when i want to discuss something or ask some questions about the game i come to steam and open a topic about it. Then people starts to check my profile to see if i own the game or not. Then many people starts to harras me completely ignore what i am talking about and they gave me clown rewards.

I realy dont understand this. Why all this hate i didn't even done anything wrong.

What next- GOG discussions here?

With how dead their forums are, they might as well exist as much as Epic's. Though GOG aren't playing the big game so... I wouldn't expect any big talk about the platform to happen.

You're missing the point, this isn't about discussing the platforms themselves. If a game is available on GOG and Steam, it doesn't matter where you bought it.

I have my combined library across 8 launchers, including Epic and 2 consoles. Some people like to keep everything in one place, that's also an option. But some like to engage in tribalism. Best to ignore people who want to troll you.

dunno.. if I want my non-existent Dell PC repaired I don't go to Cyberpower.

They would also tell you to go to the store you bought the item.

its questionable that steams high % of take on devs is why epic games thriving and taking business away.

devs are people to and need to make money so they feel accomplished that the software is successful so they can make more games.

steam cuts pretty deep into the profits at 30% which is alarming high rate for just putting the game out there.

the other side if that if you really look deep into steam you will notice a majority of small studio games just don't generate any steam activity with super low reviews and player populations.

if you combined the two, 30% cut, plus nobody buying your game, mean while steam getting 100's of free game keys from the developer plus the 30% cut of everything sold.

those small time devs basic giving the game away. cause steam then gives the keys they get out to people that work for them, the game gets circulated and or worse.

the studios never receive the money to profit and steam takes all the profit.

epic giving devs cheaper rates isn't something anyone should be worried about , and it anything it should show steam that 30% is just to high , drop it down to 20% or better yet 15% and give the devs the ability to profit while encouraging better development.

Steam isn't getting game keys from the devs, it's the other way around. Devs put their games on Steam and then generate keys from Steam to sell on 3rd party sites (from which Steam sees nothing, btw).

You never do research on anything you spout, eh?

[THE LORD]

They give me free games every week. Why would I complain? LOL.

This and 30% is industry standard and very low compared to classic retail. That's why the Indie market is so big.

years later and epic is still terrible in every way imaginable

I don't think anyone hates people that play on EGS people do hate epic games though and that's fine people are free to spend their money how they want

If anything, the EGS people that come to the forums to create constant arguments is what people hate. Which is amusing as they have to come to the steam forums to try pushing egs as much as possible, typically with misrepresentation of everything, taking peoples posts out of context to make arguments, and accusing others of putting words in their mouth while constantly doing that to Steam Customers. So if anything, the very, very, very few egs loyalists & poor behavior towards Steam Customers are what people hate, not so much the rest of the egs users.

Good number of users here say shop wherever you want & don't be limited to one store, but most also see egs for what it is & the tactics it uses, thus they usually don't trust it. Having egs people on a decent basis come here to make fights while claiming to hate steam yet remain here is the hated behavior.

This is litterly my first thread about this. Im not constantly spamming thread's. Im not putting worsd to people's mounts. I described how people treat me when i try to talk about an in game problem. Again IN GAME PROBLEM. The problem that is happening in every platform and console. Which is why it has nothing to do with diffrent platforms or console. Game is the same game nothing changes. And this has nothing to do with other platforms.

So can you tell me why people here keep ignoring the problem i described for them and keep harrasing me ?

Anyway i dont blame you. You people go way out of this topic and discussion completely different things now.

I get my answers and i decided how to act if such things ever happend again.

It's simple really. They don't see a mouse icon, the opinion you have is invalid in the Steam forums to them. I am guilty of this too, since many trolls proclaim to own the game on EGS or GoG, but they don't, and keep spamming the game forums with hate and vitriol.

People don't hate EGS users, they hate trolls who don't own the games.

this makes sense too. There is a lot of that of pretend to own the game (or illegaly own it and say they own it on GOG or somewhere else) and just troll the game.

I was speaking in general, it was not about you. Hence why it was a reply to the other user. It was giving them context as to why some people don't like egs users.

Mostly because to be honest, it doesn't happen or you're just interacting with a few people that might happen to do that repeatedly. The regulars of any given game hub are more likely to answer questions & assist in matters.

Though if someone doesn't own a game on steam and has specific issues, then ownership come into question as sometimes the specific problem is indicating an illegitimate copy. In some cases depending on the game; people should go to the developers forum when they have one if having issues, rather than the steam game hub. As for people looking at a profile & region; it is a point of scrutiny, mostly the having the game on steam or not part, but most are also aware of what certain regions were used for.

Though directly relevant. The egs part is more relevant than being from turkey, though a few countries have scrutiny especially when the account appears to have been used before billing addresses forced the amount due when purchasing games, and those accounts are usually very, very obvious. Hence why some might not have a newer game on Steam that they claim ownership of.

You just say where you own it or you don't have to justify it. People that want to help, will. Everything is on a per-user basis.


Also, especially these are true as to how users react to specific scenarios;
