  I liked when they made Jill of a Jungle, Unreal, and One Must Fall 2097

    Yeah, Epic Megagames were a part of my childhood, it’s sad to see them turn into another greedy coroporation.

  Yes yes, bitch eating crackers and all that.

  But can we maybe focus on what they actually are shit at (which is a lot) rather than manufacturing virtue for other companies?

    I’m not sure which part of that guys comment suggests anything other other than “fuck epic,” but here’s a short and sweet list:

    • Designing a service for their customers instead of relying on paid exclusivity
    • Halfway decent customer support
    • Unreal Engine 5’s performance
    • Keeping their old of games accessible
    • Not scamming kids out of virtual money

      Also, they

      • Fucked over Unreal fans by dropping the new Unreal Tournament the moment Fortnite took off (this one is personal, I was looking forward to that)
      • Fucked over people who bought Fortnite Save the World (the original paid PvE mode of the game) by dropping that the moment the Battle Royale mode took off (this is objectively worse than UT because people paid for this)
