    But if it’s deleting it stops any call then it’s like not having it in the first place

    Nah, don’t care. Devs are learning where is better to release games (aka not exclusively) soo🤷‍♂️ it’s a matter of time and we’ll either see it die or adapt and make something worth using and not trying to be a monopoly

      But… you’re basically arguing for more exclusivity by effectively boycotting the majority of products that choose to release on the Epic store, as most of them will include EOS functionality. Why is steamworks fine?

      I’m a valve fanboy but they’re only company that’s even got a prayer of monopolizing the PC games market. Epic is if anything an anti-monopolistic force here – the Unreal Engine is the Epic product that’s threatening market dominance.

        No because a lot of people hate the exclusives and they don’t buy those games, devs will realize it (one day). Look at how Ubi went back to steam, Square too🤷‍♂️

        Honestly, a eos+steamworks would be better 🤷‍♂️ but even a simple “cross platform” (epic/steam) would work.

        Is epic anti-monopolistic? Are you sure?
