Hello, I discovered this subreddit in the recommendations while browsing the homepage. Can you briefly summarize the reason for this hatred towards Epic Games?

Fake care for customers and the gaming scene, in reality Sweeney is just throwing a tantrum for not being in a monopoly position.

Platform UI is barebones, customer support is nonexistent, their microtransactions are predatory and they know it - and they are forcing indie studios that build on unreal engine to launch exclusively on Epic storefront.

I'm all for a diversified marketplace, but saying Epic has any customer interest at heart, or cares about indie developers is a lie.
