They brought "exclusives" to PC gaming for the first time.

Please stop with this horseshit. Valve and GOG had both done third-party exclusives before EGS was even a thing. Epic absolutely in no way "brought [them] to PC gaming for the first time.

Yes, they did make them a pillar in their strategy to try to enter a marketplace that was dominated by an 800-pound gorilla - which is a perfectly legitimate approach to take - which neither of the other two did, but they 100% categorically did NOT bring the practice to PC first.

they refused to spend any money on actually improving their fucking game store.

Wow, you're just full of misinformation on this post. They have constantly been updating their store since day one. No, it's not on parity with Steam (and it likely never will be), but to just flat out say that they haven't spent anything on improving it when there has been a steady stream of improvements over the years is ignorant at best and actively disingenuous at worst.

Man, I remember the days when Progress Quest was just a joke and not an entire genre.

(I think they eventually let you play as the other party members?)

Yeah, each of the DLCs has you playing as one of the other Chocobros (and Ardyn), and once they'd created their individual gameplay styles, they rolled the option to swap characters into the main game (although it's locked in the progression system, so you have to earn the ability to switch to each of them).

Ackshully, those experts are statistically far more likely to be sitting in an office chair or a gaming chair than an arm chair.

Mobile only seems to work for me through the Bing app, not in-browser. Still with the 5-6 second cooldown in the app, though.

And, hilariously, one of next week's offerings is the fan-created resurrection of Epic's own canceled MOBA/TPS hybrid Paragon.

An oldie, but a goodie. Had to kick the community off with Friar Moustache.

 

Square Enix announced during their FFXVI special event yesterday that the demo for the game would launch on PS5 today, June 12.

The demo will cover a couple hours of the game's prologue, where your progress will carry over to the main game. After that portion, it will also present a special out-of-context battle section to show off the combat gameplay.
