The Epic First Run programme allows developers of any size to claim 100% of revenue if they agree to make their game exclusive on the Epic Games Store for six months.

After the six months are up, the game will revert to the standard Epic Games Store revenue split of 88% for the developer and 12% for Epic Games.

I think you hit the nail in the head.

When I think about the whole missing shop cart thing, it wasn't necessarily the shopping cart that bothered me (even if it DID cause terrible service when they released a paradox game with DLC).

It was the fact Tim himself and a posse came on Twitter to call me everything short of the R-slur just for wanting the shopping cart. It was a freaking war of ideology attrition over a motherfucking shopping cart, something the Unreal Engine store had too.

Yesterday it was shopping carts. Tomorrow it's games working offline and with no mods. Tim made himself the villain over nothing, and deserves to fail before it's about everything.
