I gave Epic's store a chance but even after all this time it's still shit and very far from feature parity with Steam. There's not even proper reviews. No big-picture equivalent. No good out-of-the-box Linux support. No Steam-Deck. The list is very very long. Until Epic starts delivering, the 30% cut Valve takes is more than justified.

Yeah i get and play the free games from there, but they don't seem to want to do more than the bare minimum for the storefront so I won't purchase anything through them.

It's beyond me how they can affors all of these free games and exclusive but not a single capable developer to make this platform beyond just the bare minimum.
