The Epic First Run programme allows developers of any size to claim 100% of revenue if they agree to make their game exclusive on the Epic Games Store for six months.

After the six months are up, the game will revert to the standard Epic Games Store revenue split of 88% for the developer and 12% for Epic Games.

I was actually on board with Steam since the inception. I grew up in the sticks; being able to buy my games online and download them super easily was fucking dope since I could not easily find many in stores.

It's not so dope now. If that's the only thing you have to offer: Why the fuck would I use it? Because you gnab shit and hold it hostage specifically so I will use you inferior platform?
