Apparently they’re not making enough profit on Epic to avoid taking a loan from Tencent.
Personally, I object to Epic using purchased exclusivity as a tool to gain market share, and refuse to capitulate to that approach when there’s so many other games to play. If they truly.want to compete with Steam then actually make their marketplace competitive with more social and community features that Steam offers.
Another thing that would help is not releasing one of your most anticipated and subsequently well received games in recent memory exclusively on Epic. Still waiting for Alan Wake 2 to release on Steam or Gog guys…
Let him cook.

Perfect.
Interesting, I’m not using unlock in chrome on my phone so I’m not sure why it’s not showing up.
Really? I just checked and it’s not there for me viewing on Chrome for Android. Sorry mate.
What is even the point of this article if it doesn’t link or include the referenced side by side. Entertainment Weekly are awful for click-baity articles like this.
Even without development skills, you can still contribute by helping develop and maintain good documentation for your favourite projects or helping with testing and bug reporting.
Kanedaaa
If you’re going to cherry pick one of his movies to make some sort of point you could at least pick his lowest rated film (Space Jam: A New Legacy). Most of Coogler’s films score well with both critics and audiences so I think it’s fine to wait and see before getting too excited.
That’s a good one too, none of the typical over-excitable YouTuber talking or abrupt cuts to talk about sponsors, just Ari rebuilding the ct90.
I’m sure there are niche users for who paying the price of admission is acceptable, but for myself and I assume a vast number of other users, when I’m comparing performance of hardware I’m already checking reviews on multiple other sites, so this will only mean I don’t bother to check their site.
I haven’t visited their site in a long time though, so I’m not sure what value-adds they offered that might make the price more palatable.
That sounds great, I’ll have to watch it.
This movie was something special, the first 10 minutes or so are completely bonkers, and set the tone for the rest of the movie. Things are silly and played for laughs at every opportunity, however some highlights are multiple sex scenes that drag on to the point of incredulity in the same way as Family Guy often did with some of it’s convey sequences, and just got funnier the more over the top it became.
The Terminator from wish was also incredible value, from the terrible attempt at an Austrian accent to his interactions with the head mistress.
Overall we loved this movie a lot and I can definitely see it making a future appearance at a bad movie night with more of my friends
Isle of man: go fast lol idk
Not going to lie, I chose to watch this based solely on the poster. Not surprised to see David Carradine, but was pleasantly surprised to see Sherilyn Fenn a few years before her time on Twin Peaks. The movie is kind of goofy, and it definitely has its flaws but I don’t regret watching it.
Kind of clumsily touches on elements refined in future movies like Gattaca, Minority Report and others, but it’s still fun world building. My favourite tidbit is that in this world it’s normal for cops to conduct dick inspections. What a future.
S-tier B movie, lots of fun with friends.
Watched this in the evening with my friend, and it was an interesting take on a monster movie, having not seen many evil djinn in film myself. Loved the practical effects of the djinn at the end too.
Fun effects, very 90’s style, really interesting soundtrack. Overall a pretty decent movie, seems to be heavily inspired by The Thing (1982) with some of the practical effects. It’s the duck’s guts 👍.
Personally if there’s no technical reason for a game to be exclusive, then I just want that game to be freely available for people to buy on their platform of choice that has the features they want, or supports their values. Personally, I would prefer to see a GOG release over Steam, as I highly value that they allow me to actually download and own my game installers, they have done amazing work making older games playable and accessible on modern systems.
There’s no technical reason for Alan Wake 2 to be an Epic exclusive, it’s simply that Remedy got a financial incentive up front from Epic to release that way. This isn’t Epic trying to compete with other game platforms, but rather betting that by being the only platform to offer the game will be sufficient to attract players.
This has all played out before with other publishers pulling their games from Steam and releasing on their own platforms (Origin, uPlay etc), but both have vome.back as players will simply go and play something else rather than flock to another games.platfork.in which they have no investment. It’s something that even Sony has seen the light on and why we are now seeing historically console exclusive properties coming to PC like God of War and Last of Us.
Steam may be the biggest game in when it comes to games distribution, and monopolies are bad, but to advocate for Epic Games of all companies as an alternative is a weird position to take.
