After months of waiting, Epic has finally released a mobile version of the Epic Games Store, which is now available for Android devices worldwide as well as EU iOS devices.
Honestly I know people here are against Epic, but Google Play is such garbage that I welcome the epic store on Android.
Judging by the downvotes, people really don’t like being told not to use our favourite DRM, huh… anyway, the reason people buy on Steam is for all the features and functions. Other than personal controller configs, most will not work with non-Steam games. Family Sharing, Remote Play, Workshop, premade controller configs, achievements, playtime, and any social features. Of course if you don’t use any of these, then supporting a smaller store is great!
I still use steam it is the best no doubt but my concern is everybody spending money there. Steam does not require you buying game from them. You can buy steam codes all over internet.
My thesis is to decentralize your purchases while still using steam. I still buy some games there but smaller devs will sell codes direct so that’s my preferred route. For AAA shite, i will do gray market codes because fuck them.
Gamestop sells codes too.
Steam return policy is good though to check games out, so something to keep in mind.
Don’t buy on steam, you can use other vendors and just use steam. Don’t feed the beast
