I might not be a native english speaker but I'm gonna go on a limb here and say I'm fairly sure "or" doesn't mean "and".
News Epic Games Store

I think when he says Epic or Steam, the customer has a choice of where to buy. As it should be.
Don't read into it. The wording is poor, but he has clarified what he means: the next FM game will be on both.

My thought exactly.
Nothing wrong in having them on more stores.
People like free games more than free weekends, news at 11.
As someone who has, idk, 5k hours+ on Football Manager games over the years, I understand. Next FM21 is out November anyway. Let's see how the platform spread is at full price.

Im personally a good example of the tweet.
I claimed FM2020 and will try it out soon, but never tried a Steam free weekend.
However, if I really like it, I will actually buy the game on Steam. But I don't think I will as I have no interest in any sort of footbal managing what so ever.

This. The game was never free-to-keep-forever on Steam. I guess this guy was Tweeting this while counting the huge pile of money he got from Epic for this giveaway.
Also this:
What's wrong with Elite? Have it in my backlog and thought the game was rather decent from what I heard.
It's a little late today and I can't go into it a lot but I posted my thoughts on it in the Steam thread. Basically the problem is that it's a game that never really delivers more, never blossoms over time, and mechanics are rather unpolished given what the community has to say.
It echoes what I heard a developer that had left Frontier said, that they tended to slap things over and patch holes without much thoughts to the long term, both from a game design and engineering standpoint.
Whoa Crysis Remaster looks like a shit job.
Eggs can keep it.
Eggs can keep it.
When all the EGS debacle started me and others pointed out that pubs/devs would just deliver a subpar product since they already got paid by Epic, and people kept telling us nobody would do that, almost 2 years later, here we are, Crysis Remastered wasn't the first, and surely won't be the last.

"This money will help developers make better games".
The lower cut will surely trickle down to the customers.
Trickle down has been proven to work quite effectively. In Reagan and Thatcher we trusted. In Tim we can trust also.

Yep, any second now. Curation and more funding will surely result in a digital store that is filled to the brim with quality. Just you wait.
Well more funding, in any other context would surely lead to that. It's when placed in the EGS context that things go sideways
Don't you have to register as a sex offender for that?

For another thread entirely, but they've shifted from the "trickle down" concept to the apotheosis of the 1%. "They worked hard to earn it, and so they deserve it. When they win, WE win!"
It's an impossible argument to digest without taking into consideration white supremacy and xenophobia. But like I said, that's for another thread.
Trickle down is now just nakedly trickle up
Trickle might aptly describe the sales rate as well.

Square-Enix wants to expand so they will release more games on both EGS and Stadia while keeping the main source on Steam (when it comes to PC) they want to sell their games in more places in order to get more money and expand their base so yeah, do not worry about exclusivity deals just yet cause' it's not happening right now.
If they think there are people actually buying games on EGS and Stadia, well, good luck to them.
At least on EGS it's not a big deal to support. But Stadia is a whole different platform. Google must be begging developers/publishers with wads of cash to just support it.

Not sure this was posted already, but it seems you can buy EGS games in GoG Galaxy 2.0. While this may sound like a good idea, I'm not sure it is. After all, you're still buying the games from Epic, not from GoG. For me, this is just more proof that Epic's end goal is to get full control of games distribution, and that exclusives are the key to achieve this.
Edit: you still need the EGS launcher to download these games. It also seems these games aren't (always) DRM-free:
"No, the launcher is still necessary as these games have DRM. It means that, if you already have the Epic launcher installed, you can install the game without leaving the GOG GALAXY app. Otherwise when you were to install the game, it will ask you to install the launcher."

Yeah its been mentioned and discussed in the GOG thread ... and I agree, this isnt pro-consumer, this is just pro-EGS, or better yet, anti-Steam. Once again, just anti Steam.
|OT| - GOG - Old Games, New Games, Good Games!
I remember the ice skating being bugged, so you can never complete the third lap. I believe it was some sort of copy protection? That bug is still in the GOG release... just tried it out. That's so weird. I wonder what the bug is about. Is it Not a copy protection bug? Or is the GOG version...

It's the Epic way, instead of making their own shit, they want to put their shit into others things. Hell it's exactly what's happening with the Apple lawsuit, they want to put EGS store on iPhones so people can use it instead of Appstore.
The only reason EA releases their Star Wars games on EGS is because Disney is invested in Epic and it shows lol. The EGS version is so half assed.
Even worse, people are reporting that they can not unlock the game on Origin because key generation doesn't work.
Its just another launcher though. Anyway Steam had issues in 2004 so give it a chance.
And don't forget Steam moneyhatted HL2, TF2, L4D2 and other games with 2 in the name from that indie dev "Valve", so all the Egsclusives are basically just that
Imagine buying a game on EGS when it is available literally everywhere else
No excuses they have really apply.
"Give more money to the dev": EA gets more money on Origin
"It's just a launcher!": then why are you buying the game on EGS? Maybe you want all your games in one place?
"I want to help the little guys": ...
