At that time, it was very popular abroad, so some people began to interview the heads of some game platforms, and some foreign media interviewed the boss of EPIC. In the interview, the boss said that the official EPIC would support all players' freedom of speech. When it spread to China, it exploded in an instant, and everyone began to boycott EPIC's platform. Later, the story spread widely, and EPIC's boss made some unfriendly remarks about Hong Kong.
Exclusive, but most gamers spray EPIC or his exclusive national area. EPIC said that steam could not monopolize the game market before, but later they made a super double backhand, which not only monopolized, but also grabbed a hand. In fact, monopoly is a relatively normal commercial competition. Which game platform doesn't want more players? However, at that time, the game had been promoted on steam for some time and was ready to pre-order. You suddenly bought an exclusive, so what should those players who are ready to start do? And EPIC has done this kind of midway monopoly more than once. Although game developers also have pots inside, EPIC can't escape the relationship.
In fact, a good work should not only stay on one platform, but should be pushed to more platforms to let more people experience the game. I forgot to mention, EPIC later said that monopoly is for the good of players.
There is also a problem of locking in countries and regions. At that time, EPIC not only blocked the country, but even if you entered the platform, you would find that there was no way to pay, bank cards were not supported, and WeChat Alipay was not supported. Later, the game could not be sold, and there was no sales, so we had to reopen the China market and continue to make money.
In addition to these, EPIC has a lot of real black history, such as stealing the data of competitor steam. By the way, this is a BUG in the EPIC platform. This explanation is too false for any IQ. There are also game manufacturers who can not allow players to comment and other operations, which is even more confusing. The game platform itself is not very good, it is often disconnected, and there is no content such as player community and creative workshop. It is completely convenient without steam. Even if you have a few more free activities, there is still a long way to go to really compete with steam, but at least you have to get rid of your bad habits first.
