On the surface EGS is clean (ignoring the theft from steam ofc) but again they don't have the source code it's just an outside look which is meaningless

2019-04-20 08:17:39 UTC  

The Chinese can hide their shit real good

2019-04-20 08:17:41 UTC  

Yea without looking at the source code, damn near anything looks cleen

2019-04-20 08:17:46 UTC  

*who knew*

2019-04-20 08:18:30 UTC  

Bassically

2019-04-20 08:19:03 UTC  

the best part, the Chinese partners of epic did backstab them now and did start it own gaming platform

2019-04-20 08:19:07 UTC  

And whats funny, Is why isn't the known fact they access Steam without permission and snag your data from there not an obvious red flag?

2019-04-20 08:19:11 UTC  

Anyone with half a brain has stopped using EGS

2019-04-20 08:19:30 UTC  

Tensent doesn't have their own platform

2019-04-20 08:19:34 UTC  

People who have bought games on it are playing them on virtual fucking machines outta fear

2019-04-20 08:20:35 UTC  

Petty

2019-04-20 08:20:50 UTC  

Not willing to give away your data to the Chinese government

2019-04-20 08:20:57 UTC  

**BIGOT**

2019-04-20 08:21:03 UTC  

who's this tard @Deleted User

2019-04-20 08:21:10 UTC  

Pulling your game at the last minute from a platform to get some extra exclusive money. Seems as petty

2019-04-20 08:21:32 UTC  

That alone is enough for me to boycot it

2019-04-20 08:21:58 UTC

2019-04-20 08:21:58 UTC  

yea behave like a dick will turn me away from your games

2019-04-20 08:22:27 UTC  

Ah they mostly operate in China atm.

2019-04-20 08:22:48 UTC  

They own Riot Games and have a 40% share in Epic Games. They also have shares in Activision-Blizzard and Ubisoft.

Damn Tencent owns a lot

2019-04-20 08:22:58 UTC  

Also explains the future Ubisoft Exclusivity'

2019-04-20 08:23:40 UTC  

easy to own shit when you have the bankcard to the government of china

2019-04-20 08:24:12 UTC  

"Apart from 17 games, the client features some really cool features which include cloud saves, offline mode, user reviews, and tag search. You will mostly indie titles on the client and more games will arrive on the client in due time. There are some free-to-play titles on the client as well however you will need to check their description whether they offer localized language for your country or not."

The hard hitting platform with 17 games.

But already superior to Epic Games, with User Reviews and offline mode

2019-04-20 08:24:25 UTC  

But prolly has the same Data Theft/Sales

2019-04-20 08:25:07 UTC  

not to mention that one of the games that went to EGS, basically told their kickstarter backers to go fuck themselves because they're already in the black even if they had to issue refunds to all of the backers

2019-04-20 08:25:52 UTC  

And it isn't even out. Which tells you how much exclusivity they pay

2019-04-20 08:25:53 UTC  

phoenix point

2019-04-20 08:26:05 UTC  

Kickstarters are a scam but that's an oof

2019-04-20 08:26:16 UTC  

#notall

2019-04-20 08:26:35 UTC  

I am actually rather pleased with my Pathfinder Kingmaker game

2019-04-20 08:26:52 UTC  

EGS is so shit I bet that someone could inject malware into the actual games 🤣

2019-04-20 08:27:15 UTC  

kangmaker is pretty good

2019-04-20 08:27:31 UTC  

And the devs are highly active/responsive.

2019-04-20 08:28:06 UTC  

Also Divinity: Original Sin 1 & 2 were kickstarters

2019-04-20 08:28:09 UTC  

most of my Kickstarter backings have been books or board games as they are mostly safe but Im still waiting to see how the remake of System shock is going to play out

2019-04-20 08:29:14 UTC  

I have mostly only backed Games. But only if they seem a sure bet. I have heard plenty of horror stories for board games tho.

2019-04-20 08:29:57 UTC  

yea, you definitely need to read between the lines on kickstarter

2019-04-20 08:30:33 UTC  

Yea Divinity Sin 1 I threw enough to get a copy. But Divinity 2 I threw far more because 1 was so good.

2019-04-20 08:30:47 UTC  

yea. shipping is always a huge block on anything that is made in the states

2019-04-20 08:31:03 UTC  

Its the same the other way as well Turdwig.
