Your personal feelings don't matter, making money matters, and it's selling hot.

we are digressing at this point, but just a food for your thought... EGS barely have 200-250 million account, most of them is fortnite by the way. when steam is pass the 1.000 million... 5% is nothing compared to the market lost by exclusivity... by the way, if that was selling this much, they will not plan to sell it on steam too... from the get go it's short terms gain... by selling on both shop from the get go they will have touched more people. the reason behind exclusivity is because egs give cash that all not a story of cut on ue or this mythical 12%
