I was pretty hyped for the new prince of persia game (the lost crown), but come to find out it's only available on ubisoft's proprietary launcher or epic games. Nope, and nope.

I just want to have it available on my usual storefront, Steam, but it's been decidedly omitted. As a long time fan of the old games, this kind of hurts. Especially since many of the others -are- available on Steam.

I wonder if/when it will come out for Steam. These platform exclusivity deals need to die.

Edit: It's also available on several consoles, my post was just from a pc gamer's perspective.

Too many launchers nowadays. It's becoming like movies and tv streaming services.

It's inconvenient for sure, but monopolies are worse.

Steams competition is worse than a steam monopoly. Im not giving Ubi or EA or Epic money for their shitty ass store fronts and anti consumer bullshit

Those companies have changed their own launcher so many times as well that it doesn't give me any hope that they will continue to exist or continue to let me borrow the games I bought from them.

From the last time I had to use EA's launcher, I still couldn't easily pick an install location. It's incredible how shitty it is.
