exclusive titles

[Lancelot]

Please get some steam exclusive titles like epic does. By this way maybe epic learns bribing game companies is not the right way to lure gamers. Because of epic, biggest game companies like blizzard and ubisoft do not sell their games in steam, and we have to wait for 2-3 years for an AAA game come to steam to buy and play it.

Valve is not going to buy exclusives like epic does... unlike epic, Valve likes the idea of making money.

People already accuse Valve of being a monopoly, by buying exclusives, thats exactly what they would become because then those games could be no where else. Becoming a monopoly gets you investigated and punished by governments. Right now, while being very popular, it doesn't make Valve a monopoly as game developers/publishers can still sell their games anywhere they want.

And there are already blizzard and ubisoft games on Steam.

Well, Valve already has a few.

I don't think any of their own games work outside of Steam. Half Life, for instance.

Valve developed games are exclusives to Steam, but any other game is not as Valve doesn't own them.

Both Blizzard and UbiSoft sells game on Steam while Blizzard does not sell it's games on Epic. Also Steam have thousands, possibly tens of thousands of exclusive games as lot of devs don't bother selling their games anywhere else and Valve does not have to lift a finger to get those games.

There's no point for Valve to spend money luring devs and publishers to the platform as almost everyone comes to it freely. Last year over 14k games were released on Steam. Missing a few is not a big loss to Valve.

There are plenty of games that are (at least currently) only sold on Steam. The difference is that that's the developer's choice.

I wouldn't know but I think you'd be hard pressed to find Furry Feet or Sex 2 on Epic.

Tim Sweeney already knows that it's a ♥♥♥♥ move. It's his personal mission to do whatever he can to bring about Steam's demise. Creating exclusive deals was just one idea.

But no one should place any company on a pedestal. Valve is usually seen as the gamer's savior when in reality they like making money, too. Buy games where and when you want. Don't let EGS or Valve sway your purchasing.
