I just realized that Night School Studios (Oxenfree) released their game Afterparty last year in october and then I realized I played it on Xbox game pass on the day of release and I completely forgot about it.
The game came and went like a wet fart it seems. Never see anyone mentioning it.

People seemed disappointed in it overall. I can't say I missed it.
Yeah, it was disappointing. The game was clearly rushed to release.
The complete lack of self-awareness is astounding.
Since nobody else is doing it :
"We made a game. You bought a PC. What right does Epic have to demand that all commerce go through them?"

The worst thing is games that released free when they launched. IIRC there are already two games on EGS that did it.Are platforms devaluing games to gain market share?

I'm waiting for my birthday to grab that free Total War: Troy game. Not buying any DLC for it tho, I'll just wait until everything is bargain bin price to buy it on Steam if I like it a couple of years down the line.
Completely unrelated but whoever owns Gamasutra needs to commission a new website.
Let's face those two games were going to sell single digit copies, one was just bad and the other a terrible attempt at copying Human Fall Flat. Free was the right price.
Seems like THQN forgot that the game is also out on EGS, no EGS logo in the trailer:
They did this with Spongebob too. Had pages on Steam/GOG months before launch and then randomly appeared on EGS at launch with no talk about it.

Choke on your competition, billionaire
Don't worry Timmy people will like you when you start giving away 4 free games per week, OK maybe 5, 6?
His tweets read like EGS satire. The lack of self awareness is freaking me out.
This is really the political climate we are living in now, aren't we? A public figure can say anything that fuels his own selfish agenda, while contradicting himself constantly. There are no consequences and we are back in kindergarten.
Teacher:"Tim did you steal Gabe's toy?"
Tim, holding the Toy:"No, it was the other Tim, Tim Cook!"
Teacher slaps Gabe for lying.

Yeah, the hypocrisy is obvious. That said I would absolutely be in favor of tearing down walled gardens.
Is he new to Apple? Also, does he think they're communist? Is this all a cover for a new red scare?

looks like they are embedded in the overlayy ...might explain why the overlay is on game by game basis :-D
wonder if the achies will be visible outside of that overlay
I think I've come around, I think he should keep going, the more people he can make turn against egs with his awful takes the better!

The EGS in-game overlay is also based on the SDK, meaning the devs/pub have to integrate the SDK with the overlay to use the overlay in their game.
Everything on EGS is so damn manual, no wonder so few games there have the overlay when the devs have to use their time to integrate it.
Yeah. It does feel quite odd because as developers there is no way they do not know how cumbersome and wrong that is compared to a proper solution.
It feels like they want to behave as if they had a monopoly, sitting in their castle when the EGS is that dodgy shack in the woods.
Remember when Gearbox had to code their own preload?
The mod section might be the first part of the EGS that showcases some sort of raw numbers. We can see how often a mod has been downloaded and how many likes it has.
I'm sure this will be illuminating.

Apple Halved App Store Fee to Get Amazon Prime Video on Devices
Apple Inc. agreed in 2016 to halve its App Store fee for Amazon.com Inc. as part of a deal to put the e-commerce giant’s Prime Video app on Apple’s mobile devices and TV set-top box.

I can definetly see that. People will talk about the small download numbers on social media platforms which will prompt Epic to perhaps hide the download numbers.
I mean, realistically unless mods are already out there for the games on EGS (likely games also on Steam/etc), i don't see it taking off in the first place, let alone people picking up on it. Mods need word of mouth and player bases of a certain size to thrive, and well... you know.

Also, don't laugh. This dude sounds like an American politician. Don't be surprised if he runs for office before we die, AND WINS.
Rob Fahey on Gamesindustry.biz wrote an article that contains this gem:
People being outraged isn't "inexplicable" - Fahey just didn't bother and had no intent to even look into the issues.
That would be the 'good' scenario, so to speak. The bad scenario is that he knows why people are outraged yet he consciously chooses to misrepresent their position.
