Heroic is not made by Epic. We’re talking about first class first-party support. And Heroic doesn’t work very well either.

Tim apple got cucked by Weaponized autism

We don’t want first party support

Stores are stores

Launchers are launchers

Communities are communities

Software works when it is specialized and leaves open for others to build on

“We” very much do. I have no interest in spending my days debugging broken software.

Then you wouldn’t like steam on linux after various updates

Steam on Linux works perfectly.

What’s the cat in the hat line? You’re not just wrong, you’re stupid

Not every issue is on Valve but saying it’s perfect just shows you haven’t used it

And you certainly didn’t use it back when the file dialogue couldn’t view outside the steam directory

Who cares? It’s a win for everyone.

Biggest disappointment is that it took a rich twat to twist the government’s arm and do what should’ve done 10 years ago.

Give Tim Sweeney lots of money? Why would the government do that?

…why would anyone do that?

I mean, it’s what you’re celebrating.

You can make some vague claims that it’s going to be good for small businesses and independent developers… but realistically it’s only going to pad the pockets of the already rich. Any benefit to anyone else is going to be negligible.

I don’t even know what money you’re talking about. Hard to celebrate that.

…you mean Apple? No. It will benefit literally everyone else.

Well that’s unnecessarily fucking rude.

What I meant was, it works perfectly for me.

And you certainly didn’t use it back when the file dialogue couldn’t view outside the steam directory

…I don’t understand what that has to do with anything. I don’t play games in the past.

… do you think Apple is the only highly successful company in the world? There’s tons of others… like Epic.

I don’t even know what money you’re talking about. Hard to celebrate that.

At least you admit to your ignorance, that’s the first step to actually knowing what the hell you’re talking about

I’m so happy this other large company which wants to embed itself as a storefront and soak up fees won against the other large company which was already doing it.

Like, genuinely I am, but Epic isn’t doing it out of the goodness of their hearts. Epic/Sweeney is mostly sad they didn’t have the monopoly first.

What a dumb bar to judge them by. Not a single entity with an interest in fighting this fight would be doing it out of the goodness of their hearts

Okay now he should be able to afford developers to make all their games on Epic SteamDeck-compatible, right?
