Also, they killed off the UT franchise so that it wouldn’t compete with Fortnite, even though the games were at best adjacent.
Epic represents the worst parts of capitalism intersecting with games. Well, a set of them, EA represents another set, and Activision-Blizzard yet another set (though there is some overlap). And Microsoft might be the worst of them all but they are still posturing and doing a much better job than Epic at taking market share (which means they know to hold back on the anti-consumer stuff after learning lessons about overplaying their hand too soon several times over).
