#1 Epic is the new Google - "Don't care if we are evil".
When they muscled into the game vending market, they adopted tactics that adversely impacted gamers in order to get a larger market share. Considering how they treated existing vendors, publishers and gamers, I wouldn't trust them any more than I trust (or use) Google. As for Fortnite, I don't play online games. I play games to get away from the a$$holes of the world so why would I want to surround myself with them?

#3 Epic offers free games alot, so along with steam, who are also evil, I shamelessly use them to get free games. Unless they have a massive sale through, I prefer to buy new games directly.

#4 Lost an embarrassing amount of time to a hopeless addiction to the UTII demo. Still pop out the occasional "Gawdlike!" or "Killing spree!"
