re: this article.

The title is a joke. “Free, but you have to make an EGS account” is a bit too rich for me.

    I’m not as salty about EGS as a lot of PC gamers seem to be.

    … But god damn is their default client trash.

    Thank fuck for Heroic Launcher on Linux (I think it even got a Windows version?)

    But honestly, people complain about exclusivity, and seem to not realise (or care?) that certain games would not exist without this kind of funding deal. They are only funded by the platform that pays for their exclusivity. If you want to be mad at something, don’t be mad at the devs, don’t even be mad at Epic, be mad at Capitalism as an institution, which rules that art needs money to exist.
