Nothing more disappointing to me than seeing a game I might enjoy... and then it's only available on PC on Epic Games store. Why can't it be available on Epic, Xbox game store and Steam? It's so annoying, like you have no choice but to use Epic... which I would literally do ANYTHING not to use.
Epic Games is not publicly traded.
And TBH their history with Unreal is not that bad. And Valve is already extracting a truckload of money out of us through their percentage cut.
Carmack is absolutely a character though, lol. I have to wonder how controversial EGS would be without him.
Fair point with neither being publicly traded. I should have been more clear on that.
Unreal the engine, or the game series? From the perspective of a consumer, I don't think either of them seem to be in good shape these days, unfortunately.
Er... Carmarck is in Id. Epic's founder and CEO is Tim Sweeney.
Ah yeah I meant Sweeny.
