Outer Worlds skipping Steam for Epic Games Store

I would never hope for a game to fail since that's pretty petty, but I can't deny that the more Epic Games continues to pull this type of shit the more I begin to want the 0.001% chance that Fortnite either drops significantly in popularity or that Apex Legends or any other game comes out and takes it down.

I presume that is the one of their major if not the biggest revenue source they have currently to be able to afford paying to keep games off of Steam like this, at least if that drops significantly hopefully they wouldn't be able to do these deals for much longer, or at least not in as much quantity as they are now.

Its not Epic's fault for competing in the market, its Steams fault for not competing. Its because of there lack of effort lately which allows the door to be open for competition. Metro Exodus has outsold the last Metro Last Light game by 2.5x the amount. That's telling you that gamers will flock where the games are. Valve just doesn't seem to care for there own customers and allow these business decisions to take place while racking in 30% profits on garbage green light games. The way its going, Epic Store is going to be a huge store in the next couple of years and that's thanks to the lack of Steam competition for the games we want to play.

I wont be downloading Epic Store, but I am a Steam user, and I am a disappointed customer as of late because of there complacency.
