I won't edit it, but I'll expand on my own thoughts. So how do we feel about games (not just this one even) now potentially coming out of the Epic contracts? Is taking that deal too much of a black mark on a dev, or is Epic the only one that should be the target of ire? Or do we just not care by now? I think personally if I overcame this temptation, I can probably continue to pretend to have morals and carry on not bothering with the Epic store.Ĭoming back to this post in the morning, I feel like maybe I came off as a little aggressive or harsh. the game reappeared on my wishlist as soon as the store page went back up.

Interestingly, the store page on Steam might not have actually ever been removed but maybe hidden. It always seemed like the assumption was that it would end up back on Steam eventually and certain non-committal (probably contractually so) comments by the devs suggested such too. I played the alpha a year ago on a burner Epic account and, in a surprising turn of willpower for me, actually deleted the whole thing afterward and just let it go. I fall mainly in catagory 3, but less smarmy.

'Thanks dumb Epic users for beta testing this game so I can enjoy it now'.

'I love this and I'll buy it again on Steam'.'Screw you, I'm not buying this now you've come crawling back'.The Steam news post has maybe the cross section of comments you would expect: (Also, the meme of pipes is apparently over)

Satisfactory steam
