Personally, as a customer, not a developer, this is disappointing to me, as there's still no reason for me to shop on Epic when they don't support my operating system, so this is likely just going to entice more developers to make me wait 6 months to play their games. Nonetheless, it's gaming news.

Wait what's up with Firewatch? I couldn't find anything obvious with a search

Valve bought the developer of Firewatch, and they ended up working on Half-Life: Alyx. Firewatch is still available on all storefronts it was available on before the acquisition, and other Valve games are not.
